IG-88 - Concept Art
Accessories
IG-88 is packaged with two blasters and a build-a-droid piece.
Look and Feel
The only reference photo I could find is shown above and seeing as it is a black and white drawing it is difficult to determine how accurate this figure is. Based on just the overall sculpt he seems to be pretty accurate. When I look at this figure I think of Lost and Space and half expect there to be a voice chip that says, "Danger Will Robinson!" The blasters seem to be something that Hasbro just though up, but I am glad they went with two as the final version of IG-88 had two weapons. It is also very cool that we were given holsters for them even though they can't be seen on the concept art drawing.
Articulation
IG-88 has ball-hinged joints in the shoulders, elbows, knees, and ankles. There are also swivel joints in the neck, wrists, torso, and hips.
Overall Reaction
Of all the concept art figures this is my least favorite. I picked him up as I have almost all the other concept art figures and plan to go back for that General Grevious one when I see it hit a deep discount. Other than putting him with other concept art figures this one is an easy pass unless you are dying to get the build-a-droid figure. If you are a builder of the YVH-1 build-a-droid you can pick up Commander Bacara that was shipped with this case to up to get the right leg.
