I don't think you'll be disappointed as I think the production will match the prototype. Maybe if they have loose bodies like some had issues with Mythos Boba and Skiff Lando... I'm only disappointed that I spent $560 for a couple of background aliens because I fell in love with a movie when I was seven...but that isn't Sideshow's fault...
Hopefully! I grew up with the 90s POTF figures so I have way more nostalgia for OT than the prequels when it comes to action figures. If these turn out decently I will probably cut back or eliminate collecting prequel stuff, which has been *mostly* easy so far since I’ve found a lot of the head sculpts (ROTS Obi-Wan, Qui-Gon, Mace) to be misses for me anyway. Plus OT aliens in general are just way more visually interesting than all the various Jedi in similar robes.I don't think you'll be disappointed as I think the production will match the prototype.

Yeah, I really also felt I had to support SSC in this. I did use a single coupon, but overall there was a feeling that I want them to release everything that's been teased so the cash had to flow. Not a good mindset I know, but to me this is what's been best about SSC even if they're channeling prices from the worst of SSC (beginning with Luke X-Wing's $240 pricepoint.)I don't think you'll be disappointed as I think the production will match the prototype.

The Lando body wasn't the problem for me with that release - it was the unrecognizable super-dark skinned no-helmet head the figure came with. Still not sure who that cartoonish stranger was supposed to be (it didn't go to waste: I hollowed/dremelled that head out, ballooned it to make him look a bit more chubby and used it for a Endor Commando and it worked great - doesn't look like Lando as a Commando.)
I think you’re safe, especially if you jumped on the WL within a few days. Also I don’t see it being mentioned much, but I’m pretty sure the Ponda exclusive figure not only comes with the extra hands but also a different second blaster and holster to hold it.
Bceause Greedo's the Taylor Swift of the cantina and Ponda's more the Amy Wino.
Yeah I don't know what people are talking about - I find myself using cantina cups on all my cantina guys much more than I would have thought. A blaster in one hand and cup in the other just says "Star Wars cantina" more than anything else does.
If I were to do a cantina diorama I agree that the cup would be a key accessory. I've got more Detolf museum poses going at this point, but I do think Greedo leaned back, drinking and with his hand cautiously over his holstered blaster is a pose I can get with...
Ok. Understood. Thank you all for your input.
Han: I didn't know they were looking for somebody to lead this crazy attack.That turned out to be a good thing.
