Essentially this figure is the same basic figure as far as pose, accessories, and paint apps as the Apollo figure. The two main obvious differences are the head sculpt/hair color, and mirror image pose (reversed because Apollo is left handed and Starbuck is right handed). Other than that, the open jacket of Starbuck is the only real change to the figure. However that change is not only appropriate to the character, but really sets it apart. The added detail to the shirt collar and added color really stand out. This open coat also gives the figure a feel of flow that seems to imply a more active presents. It just seems more action like and thus is in my opinion the stronger of the two.
