Kit Designer Appreciation Post
I just want to say thank you to all the people involved with making some of the best kits that SWGOH has to offer. This post was inspired by reading the new Cobb Vanth character kit, specifically his High Noon ability. I notice that the kit designers for this game are able to represent ideas and themes unlike any other form of "art". It might be too much glazing but I do believe that some kits can be interpreted as an art piece of its own, like a sketch or a representation of a person's identity. I can only imagine that's one reason why fan kits are so huge. Anyways, the High Noon ability really represented a 1 on 1 duel well, as well as his Deputize ability. I can really picture all of the life on Tattooine unifying under Cobb's protection against the Outlaws.
Of course, Cobb's kit isn't the first interesting one. I think I really fell in love with first was General Skywalker's team, having all of the boys in blue, with GAS leading the front, fighting alongside his brothers. And then having the reverse of that with Lord Vader's new team. They lose the color coordination for the sake of better overall Clone Trooper representation during Order 66.
And sure, not all of the kits are winners, you're bound to have a few stinkers in order to make the better ones shine more. I just hope the kit designers are being treated well over there, and they deserve to be really proud of Cobb's kit.
And if you're reading this, do you have a favorite kit, and why?
