Kinda crazy.. all those sculpts and I agree that none are that fitting of the character. Also Mars needs to get on actually releasing figures they’ve announced instead of adding more and more to the pile. They do well when they actually release figures but are pretty slow.

Yeah, unfortunately FlyAndFlight passed away sometime last year. A couple of posters in one of the Star Trek threads talked to him outside of the message board and were told by his wife that he had passed.

I guess my view on the figure is that it works two fold. Gives people who want this variant of Mandalorian armor the chance to have it without doing a full release that may potentially sit in stock forever and ever. I understand that its a repaint of existing parts, but having it as an...

I mean for all that person knows Hot Toys just copied the poses.

Hot Toys also hasn’t made many figures based on younger characters. I think Padawan Ahsoka is really the first one.

I mean ideally I’d agree with this for all exclusives. Hate the queue system and how it’s such a crapshoot. I got lucky twice yesterday and got both this and the Imperial Commando. Really was surprised I got both.

To be fair though it also makes sense to be an exclusive. It’s not a main look for the character and a one off outfit. I’m keeping mine most likely. I think he looks cool.

Mine is already pre-ordered and fully paid off. It’s not perfect but I want a Mace Windu so I have to have it.

I don’t know how I managed to get them both. Luckiest I’ve been for these exclusives.

Got it. So that’s two exclusives for me today. Didn’t intend that. :lol

Got one! I’d like the Imperial Commando too but better not get them both.

Already up on Sideshow for $265. Not bad. https://www.sideshow.com/collectibles/star-wars-darth-sidious-hot-toys-913416?var=9134161

I kind of like this figure for how episode specific it is. Kind of makes it stand out a bit more to me and something I wouldn’t have expected. I’ll try for this one I think.

Ugh.. why does this have to be an exclusive? Torn between this and the Obi-Wan variant. Can only really get one. Leaning a bit more towards Obi-Wan but I guess we’ll see if I can get either of them.

I feel like the younger versions are a bit more iconic personally. Maybe it’s because Harry Potter feels like a more youthful franchise. I’m okay with getting the trio the way we are from InArt. Not sure if I would double dip on older versions.
