Review: Star Wars Rogue Week: Day Three – 6 Inch Black Series Ben Kenobi

Day 3 of Star Wars Rogue Week: Ben Kenobi Positives: Figure includes a soft goods cloak (took Hasbro long enough to release a figure with one). Pretty good likeness to Sir Alec Guinness in my opinion. Articulation is done well for the figure. Negatives: While the articulation is good, double jointed elbows would have benefited a lot.
