The final group to go live today and I think an interesting group with some great figures.
The most consistent figure ever in the Forum Figure comp is the Hoth Stormtrooper and he gets his campaign underway here. The Hoth trooper must wonder what he has to do to be victorious having reached the final in 2014, 2015 and 2018, before eventually losing to Stormtrooper, Boba Fett and Biker Scout in each final. The other two years where he failed to reach the final he still managed a semi final in 2016 and a quarter final in 2017. Judging by his previous he has to be considered a major threat to all the other figures, but has he got what it takes to finally put the demons to bed and win the final battle.
If he is to go all the way he'll have to come out of a reasonable tough group, one figure he will need to beat is the amazing Imperial Gunner, although surprisingly the Gunner hasn't cleared the group stage on three occasions and has fallen at 2nd and 3rd round the two times he has cleared it.
It's Jedi love in this group as Prune Face (1st round elimination always) and Rancor Keeper (also 1st round loser every year) will attempt to clear the group for the first time, alongside a stunning figure, the Gamorrean Guard, as far as I'm concerned the Gamorrean Guard should have faired better over the years, 2nd round exits in 2014 and 2015, 1st round exits in 2016 and 2018 and a third round elimination in 2017 has seen, in my opinion, this figure fall short from where he really should be.
Making up the group is another figure who has failed to reach the knockouts before, Ugnaught, which is a real shame as he's a handsome little chap.
Interesting group, looking forward to seeing where this one goes.
