Nikto Gunner

Accessories
Nikto Gunner is packaged with his helmet, blaster, a blaster cannon and clip, and a build-a-droid piece.

Look and Feel
This Nikto is a fantastic looking figure and I love the cannon he comes with. It clips right on to my skiff and really looks cool. His sculpt is dead on right down to the horns on his helmet. Hasbro also gets points from me for giving me a holster that I can put his blaster in. The only drawback on this figure in my estimation is that his helmet has a lot of trouble staying on. When I positioned him on my skiff, I had to first put the cannon in his hands, clip his cannon to the railing, position his legs, and finally putting on his helmet as it fell off during the process. Be careful with this accessory or you will find yourself buying another one. That of course might not be a bad idea as this figure is ripe for customizing.

Articulation
Nikto Gunner features ball-hinged neck, shoulders, elbows, ankles and knees. In addition he has swivel wrist, waist, and hips.

Overall Reaction
This is probably right up there with the Slave Leia figure as the pick of the wave. The only point against it is the helmet falling off, but if you just put is on after you have him positioned he is fantastic. His articulation and head sculpt are fantastic and it was really cool to see the old Return of the Jedi blaster that showed up so much during the Jabba the Hutt scenes in the movie. In my opinion this is a must buy figure! I am seriously considering buying two so I can have another cannon and a Nikto head to swap.
