Hasbro’s been really trying to improve their offerings lately. Putting out the first Rogue One action figure ever is a good opportunity to gain ground lost to Figuarts and MAFEX. Unless those decide to release as well.

The SH Figuarts Star Wars line is going strong. So strong that it makes its nearest competitor seem like a joke.
Notwithstanding the current criticisms on how it currently handles the Star Wars license especially in the face of fierce competition by SH Figuarts and MAFEX, Hasbro still deserves the credit for keeping Star Wars toy collecting alive. Now, all they need to do is get their shit together….
MAFEX’s figures are very accurate, although a bit less durable than SH Figuarts. They are still very much worth the money especially for those who don’t really change their figure’s poses every other day.
The MAFEX Darth Vader is another reason Hasbro should try to improve quality control on their figures. A great figure in its own right despite its flaws, it shows how Japanese toy manufacturers are making good with the Star Wars license. Hasbro still has the advantage in the sheer number of figures it can release per wave, but quality over quantity is going to become a very real issue down the road.
