Great review! I got lucky and found these at my local comic shop for around retail price a number of years ago, was so stoked then to find them. Still love this set, but they could definitely do with updates, the articulation being the main thing that needs improvement although both Sev and Scorch are missing elements to their design here. Mine are also starting to yellow a bit which is a bummer.
I recall seeing your video years ago. Wish Scorch had his anti armor shells attached to his leg, about as significant to him as his pack. Unfortunate about the yellowing. I hear if you spray your figures in clear Flex Seal, it stops the yellowing. I might experiment with that someday.
Great review. Didn't EE have a release of them I did have both sets where they were in black armor with the Mandalorian's that I gave to my oldest son and I bought a set a couple of years ago I have to get the other set now with the Mandalorian's and stormtroopers
Star Wars Galaxies has the Saga collection of them for $237.98 I didn't see the TRU exclusive on the box though this is the seller who I bought Mereel and Montross if interested I highly recommend this seller and he's willing to work with you on the price just a heads up
Might consider it. I plan to eventually get the first Republic Commando set, but I am not in a rush for it. Eventually I hope to do an Every Republic Commando video, including the Black Series Commandos.
Really awesome figures 💯
I remember getting this at TRU. Kept it sealed to this day.

Yes, the Republic Elite Forces set, which I will be doing the video for most likely in March.)

Yeah these figures are much different than the sets from E.E
Are you referring to Omega Squad from the Republic Elite Forces set?
@jmcgin1453 yeah
@jmcgin1453 it's an awesome set
But the articulation was not as good of them back then
