Each morning I'll try and list a new game. The board will be given ~24 hours to vote for the winner.

The question for this tournament is, "Which is the overall better figure?"

Note: This tournament features many different types of figures, please consider the entirety of a figure (sculpt, detailing, materials, originality, etc.) when voting. Additionally we ask for understanding with the lack of consistent pictures. Do not dismiss a figure because of a poor picture. Please feel free to post a better picture of the figure you selected.

This was an easy one for me. Grimlock is in the least interesting positioning possible. Does anyone ever want to see him as anything besides his dinosaur form?

As for Maul, it’s a really great figure. Admittedly I didn’t vote for him in the last round, but that didn’t stop me from heaping praise onto the figure.

My vote is for Darth Maul.

I think Grimlock's got this vote locked in (see what I did there?)

I agree with G.Veers, it would be better if he were in his dino form.....but really, could Darth Maul beat any Transformer? Not with that baby face he can't.

Darth Maul all the way! This figure is awesome, as a matter of fact, this figure alone is what got me started on collecting Galactic Hero figures. He has an awesome paint application, the detail on and around his head is awesome. Gots himself a cloth sith robe which is cool. Duel ended saber (calm down Marty), how can you argue with that? Pretty sweet figure indeed. Once of my favorites easily.

grimlock rocks the vote. i think his pose looks great and if you swing his right arm up he's ready to drop the chop. why is it that the robot figures seem to look more fluid and moving than the other characters?

darth maul is one of the better looking star wars figures. but his face is kind of effed (looks like he's got a binky) and his pose seems strange. why are his shins the same length as half his body height? i'm usually not a fan of cloth clothing on plastic figures, especially at this size. but i think they did it right here.

Ooooh, good eyes :wallbash:

Snatcher it is-Gillian Seed to be specific. One of my favorite games, and this particular scene (where he obtains the gun) always made me chuckle. "I'll take it" indeed :fool:

Darth Maul is kinda cool, but i know if i voted for him he'd just stick around for four stupid minutes and then get cut in half. So i'm gonna go with Grimlock on this one!
