Both the too tall height issue gone, the 2012 flavor has a significantly improved stance. Nothing remarkable has been brought forward in terms how much movement you can get out of him, but one area in particular has been remedied when compared to the very good 2007 TAC figure.

Imperial Navy Commander comes with the standard 14 points of articulation.

Hasbro shrunk down the sheer size of this character (the 2007 figure was a giant) and paid attention to more details than ever before that renders a gorgeous figure for even the most discriminating collector. (That figure unfairly gets a bad rap – it's not as terrible as everyone makes it seem). But all isn't lost because the Imperial Navy Commander is indeed an excellent action figure and a tremendous update to 2007’s TAC Death Star Trooper (No. But to be clear, Hasbro has stated through a Q&A session that 2012’s TVC Imperial Navy Commander is intended to be the modern replacement for the vintage Kenner Death Squad Commander. Hasbro still remains adamant about always returning to the Death Star Trooper figures that wear the 'all black' costumes. On the other side of the debate stands most of the collecting community.(Why are so many hot topics Hasbro versus the collecting community?) Where is the gray officer with the communications cords hanging down from the helmet? Where is his ranking badge? Well, it certainly didn't arrive for this figure, yet interestingly Hasbro still admits (when questioned) that an release of the gray outfitted Imperial officer would be great for the line. And judging from this figure’s card back artwork, it’s evident that they truly stand by what they say. With The Vintage Collection release of Imperial Navy Commander, it is their opinion that the 1979 vintage Kenner figure gets checked off for a modern/neo-classic update in the basic figure line. On the 'yes' side of the debate stands Hasbro.

Has this figure been updated in the modern lineup yet? This is the one question that is most asked! That answer is both yes and no depending upon who exactly you ask. The vintage Kenner Death Squad Commander/Star Destroyer Commander has been the center of many debates in the collecting community (for years).
