Major Vonreg

[GNT]

Here's a look at the new Resistance figure Major Vonreg (voiced by Lex Lang), who'll be purchasing this figure?

 

[Darth_Sceptaurus]

Like the design, so I might actually get this one. It's like a TIE pilot/Royal Guard mix.

 

[Deak_Starkiller]

Might get an extra for a custom. The helmet visor is reminiscent of a Phase I Clone pilot.

 

[ThallJoben]

Definitely getting this...has an awesome "Tron" vibe/tone that I like. And I told myself that I wasn't going to collect another line....arrgghhh....LOL.

 

[Tulgah]

I’m up for it! It looks like it would fit in well enough with “realistic” style figures. And I’m up for any new 3.75 offerings.

 

[KypDurron420]

I may not like the new "canon" but I like some of the designs Disney's been doing. This one is going to be a must. It's like a cross between a ERG and a TIE pilot. And the helmet is like the Clone Commandos. :{J

 

[darth_sidious]

Out of all the Resistance reveals, this is the only figure that grabbed my attention - it looks like an old EU mash-up, which I dig.

 

[AaylaSecurasMan]

Recently got this one from Amazon to add it to my Sith trooper lineup. They are showing up at 5 Below nowadays as well.

 

[Masterfett]

Yeah I was lucky enough to order this one online, only wanted it for the helmet though. lol
Definitely wasn't gonna pay the $9 +SH for him.

I picked up a few of the resitance figs for fodde when they were cheap at Walmart, mainly Spaz and Sinara for the head. Wish I could have found another Yeager for cheaper.

Edit: I just noticed that he isn't the same shade of red as the Sith Jet Trooper.

 

[AaylaSecurasMan]

It’s ok, even the rebel pilots have different shades of orange

 

[HothHan]

I really like this figure along with the rest of the Resistance line. The only one I didn't end up getting was the Poe/BB8 set. Honestly this cartoon was the best media released from the ST era (and that includes the last 2 movies).

 

[darth_sidious]

The cartoon was profoundly vacant, and added virtually nothing to the SW universe, that's why I had no interest in the toy line. With CW and Rebels, I was genuinely interested in the characters - never had that feeling with any of the newly introduced characters in Resistance. I think that's what drives action figure sales as well. Vonreg was the only figure I picked up, and that's mostly because it reminded me of something that could have appeared in the old EU. I would have much preferred the universe line from Solo stuck around instead and gave us some basic TROS figures.

 

[BlindJedi]

If I find it for a good price I'll pick it up. I like the idea of using it as a Royal Guard pilot in my Imperial customs I'm wanting to do.

 

[Masterfett]

Not as off color as I thought.

 

[AaylaSecurasMan]

Not as off color as I thought.

Nice, is that the body of a Jet or a Sith trooper?

 

[Masterfett]

The Jet Trooper, it has the removable chest/jet area. Although I'm having a tough time finding a replacement for Vonreg's chest gear, the AT-AT Driver's is too large as is the Clone Pilots, not that they even remotely look the same. Too bad the TIE Pilot doesn't have removable chest gear.
