Nice review.
You beat me to it, Wolf. I was missing the ankle articulation in Cad Bane and wish that the sculpt looked as sharp as the first bane release. His hands and pistols seem especially flexible to me but I like the removable pouch.
  You are right in that speeder is a very slick piece. i especially like the rifle mount next to the rear saddle on one side.

I did a video review of this set today. Here is the link.

The only bad thing is I found this @ Kmart of all places, And not In Maine Or Ohio. But In Virginia. The BSA is have their 100 years of scouting @ Fort A.P. Hill VA. And well Be the last time hosted by the Fort. So I'm here Visiting my Older Sister.

P.S. CH.
There are pop out blasters on the speeder.

what the hell!?   This figure was suposed to have ball jointed hips.  That was what we saw in the pre-production photos of this packaged set.  This is an entirely different sculpt than it's suposed to be!  WTF hasbro...

this is one of the sets I was looking most forward to because they SHOULD have done the figure right this time...  heck he doesn't even have his full length coat!! 

I guess I'll still get it for the bike... but dang... it'll be a dificult decision to put the money down for it.

well... I made the decision to go ahead and buy this pack.  I'm realy disapointed.  I think the bike could be slightly better and I absolutely hate this sculpt of bane.

I only have one real issue with the bike... it's missing the trucker girl twilek painted on the side :P  lol

as far as the bane goes...

this sculpt is absolutely horrible.  I see what hasbro tried to do to make him better, as well as make him fit on the bike better. but seriously?!  The elbow joint is too high up meaning that his upper arms are too short.  The upper arms are also too small, even for a lanky animated figure.  The pegs in the elbow joints are weak and I'm afraid that moving one of them will snap it off.  The molding on one of his gauntlets is off and looks horrible...  The figure does have the ball jointed torso joint which is an improvement over the static original figure, but not giving him his full length trenchcoat tails was a stupid decision... they could have made them in a way that he still fit on the bike.   
Not to mention that I was expectin to see arf trooper style ball jointed hips on this figure....   

I will say that I do like the new "snarling face" head sculpt.  and the his holsters.... but those are the only things I actually like about the fig.
