Statue ‘I Am Your Father’ – Luke Skywalker VS Darth Vader on Bespin Polystone Dio

[plasticcrapmoneywaster]

Here's mine. I have it displayed on a set of standard semi-cheap bookshelves. At its widest point its about 13+ inches wide and over 13 inches high. An awkward piece to say the least. I have to say while it is a great looking item it is really nerve-racking to put together. The whole railing has to be assembled and all of it is fragile polystone. Personally, I would only purchase this through sideshow as opposed to a third party who might not gurantee the piece is complete and undamaged.

How tall is this piece when assembled?

This is a big freakin piece about 16 inches tall, 18 inches wide and 14 inches deep and I measured!

IMO - it is the depth of the item that makes it difficult/awkward to display. Mine hangs just slightly off my shelf, it is serviceable but not ideal.

This is the one piece that totally represents Star Wars

 

[Adolfo]

I'm dying to see another Star Wars dio. Maybe Ep VI Vader vs Luke or Ep III Emperor vs Mace Windu/Kit Fisto+ 2

 

[Drakul]

Has SSC even released a diorama in the past year?

 

[Spawn_de]

The last one was Shaak Ti vs. Grievous.

Yeah but besides that one nothing right?

I think this line is close to being dead. I was hoping for the luke/leia they previewed over 1 year ago, but nothing else since then.

 

[Centurion]

Yeah, personally, I would like SSC to focus on releasing more Jedi and Sith PF's instead of these dios.

I can't believe that this phenomenal piece from the perhaps most iconic scene in all of Star Wars is not sold out yet! Ridiculous!

 

[godzilla]

It is useless to resist! I am so getting mine soon. I just can't resist! It is so awesome! I wonder why so few manufacturers focus on diorama inspired by scenes from the movie. Wouldn't you guys want to see a diorama depicting moment when vader is throwing the emperor down the ventlation shaft for example?

Scored this diorama as a Christmas gift to myself. It was frustrating as hell to put together (as noted in my help post) but it was so worth it (it's massive!)

Sculpt and design-wise, you can definitely tell this is the team that moved on to form Tweeterhead. The composition looks dynamic from every angle and there's no way to overpraise the paint on Luke's weathered outfit. I can't wait to receive their '66 Batgirl next year!

congrats. The only thing I did not like was the choice of material for the railings. Delicate and frustrating as hell.

Agreed and thanks! Vader's single foot peg for such a wide stance also made me nervous placing him on the base.

But it's all positives once the nerves have calmed. Even the weapons (including Luke's blaster in his side holster) and were molded perfectly. The lightsaber blades are very distinctively the sharper ones from ESB.

it is a shame this line died. I was looking forward to the luke & leia swinging dio.

but the msrp on them became ridiculous. way too much $ for something so small.
