I actually really like Piett as a character. If I can get a hold of this figure, hell go great with Veers and DS trooper (who lead all my other troopers lol)

I can see how that would work quite well, since his face is a bit less recognizable as the actor, as compared to Tarkin or Veers. Hed definitely work as a more generic stand-in, better than most others.

I know this may be knit-picking but to me Veers' rank bars and plaque seem to be much bigger than the others. Is his oversized or are the others undersized? When you put them together it seems out of wack to me. I am thinking that Hasbro does not have someone one to overlook continuity in their line.
I have noticed that, actually... I think Veers is just a hair larger than the other two. If they had downsized it just a little bit, it would be much closer in size to Tarkins and Pietts. And more closely reflect the way they all appeared on screen. Im wondering if the reason it was molded slightly larger though, has to do with making sure the spaces between the rank buttons or pips, remainedapparent. As Veers only had eight such buttons or pips. And, maybe making it any smaller wouldve made it harder for the silver lines between the buttons to stand out?I can live with it. But yea, it is definitely noticeable.

Not, I would say, thebestlikeness, but close enough, for me... Hes definitely going to be one Ill want to get my hands on.
