Very pleasant surprise. Hopefully Sideshow starts shipping out soon.

Yeah he was clearly after something, but it seemed pretty elusive and more of a personal journey, and I didn't get the impression there was some earth-shattering discovery that was going to come out of it.

It seems that way but he's also still on the same planet with Ahsoka & Sabine (& almost forgot, Shin as well), so it's possible that their paths could cross again...

Doubt it. They haven’t even shipped out ROTJ Vader out for the most part except
for a single small batch six weeks ago and that dropped three months ago.

Seeking the "beginning" to once and for all end the cycle of galactic war? Not an earth shattering discovery? Errrm...

Yeah but what's really going to come of that? Not like the franchise is going to suddenly stop having galactic wars in it. So it can't be anything that major.

Perhaps he'll discover a doorway to yet another new world located between The World Between Worlds and the real world. Boy will Yoda, Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan and Anakin be surprised when he shows up...

But cloak on, or cloak off?

I like the shoulder armour, but he looks more complete with the cloak.

Out of 50 photos this was the only one I spotted that showed the best of both worlds:

That’s the winning pose or similar! Agreed, you get the best of both worlds.

You never know. They’re already shipping Super Commando Gideon

I got my Vader and MG already from them

Not interested in the character or the show but wow that was a fast turnaround! It's also really cool to see the great late Ray Stevenson immortalized in 1/6 scale with such a cool looking figure. I know it will never happen but a version of Ray's Blackbeard from Black Sails would also look badass.

Meanwhile in China...

The head sculpture feels a bit broken, why is it so silly?

The head sculpt isn't that great...

Tough crowd. :lol

Figure turned out great and seems to have retained most of the detail in the headsculpt that the proto had which is nice. Unfortunately, I don’t think I need this anymore given my shift in collecting focus, but I may make the exception

Loved the show and loved him as Blackbeard. I was so sad to see how he was killed on there. It was really rough to watch

I’d love a Titus Pullo figure from Rome personally. THIRTEEN!!

IDK if it's just riding up too high in that video but that double belt design makes it look like he has no torso. It's like the SW version of grandpa pants lol.

I'm hoping you can pull the belt down a bit. Usually, the outfits need some futzing.
