1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars: Episode V ESB - Yoda Collectible Figure

[TaliBane]

Yeah, the HT head's a slightly different color to the SSC hands but it seems to go on the SSC body okay.

The SSC Jedi Master Yoda hands seem to be a better color match.

Nice, TaliBane! You get to use both HT head sculpts.

My girlfriend gave this to me for Valentine's Day (got it early since I got to her place before she did and saw the UPS notice on the door from Sideshow ). I was on the fence about ordering it for myself but was leaning toward no, but man I'm so glad she got it, he's one of my favorites! Only figure I have that will be displayed with the base, this is such a great package all around.

Nice with the lit empire panel. Just realized the ST Han led panel is perfect for a Obi Darth battle.

Been playing around with the hair on this one. Trying to frizz it out and add a bit more but I really have no idea what the hell I'm doing. I think it's an improvement.

a couple recent pics.

@parrasmaniac may I ask where can I get that LED lightsaber?

 

[parrasmaniac]

yes, it is a CCL, made by pixelpiper. I contacted to him here, via the forums.
However, I don't know if he still makes this lightsabers.

They are wired, I partially try to hide the wire with Vader's cape and using white cardboard in the "shelf floor".

OK, thanx

I may have to get this Yoda. Looks better than the first version.

Did they make one before this version?

I think they did 2 runs or there was a difference halfway through production.

I very unexpectedly received a package from SS that had a book about them and a $50 off code for an in stock item. Not happy with them for what happened here with the customs section, but $50 is $50. He's got free shipping there now too, I'm in CA so paid tax. $161 shipped. I was eventually going to get this guy and that's around the sweet spot of price I wanted to pay looking at eBay sold listings on used ones. Might as well get a new one.

Anybody have the ESB figure considering getting the new AtoC one? I don't have a Yoda yet and am trying to decide between getting this one or getting the AtoC version.

ESB version is classic with a good diorama but this new one has the dynamic stand and his light saber..... what were your thoughts for going the way you did? (xpost on AtoC thread as well)

 

[rayeknor]

I have this one and will not get the new one. New one also looks amazing, but OT Yoda is real Yoda for me and I find the angry look of the new one out of character.

This figure is the best Yoda likeness you can get besides the life sized ones in hand, especially with good lighting and the closed eye sculpt it looks eerily close to the movie puppet. It looks a lot better in hand then on photos to boot.

ps this one is about to sell out, grab it while you can.

They're so different in both movies and releases, I can't just have one be the Yoda of my collection but if I did only have one thought it'd be this version since it's way more iconic to me. If I were 10 years younger I'm sure the PT Yoda is more iconic.

So after I posted I went and checked side show and it looks like they are doing their own Yoda now too... On sale July 17th. no pics or anything yet.

Well that's interesting. Wonder what they'll do to differentiate themselves ?

Throw in the hut as an accessory and I might contemplate it

 

[rayeknor]

Interesting. But I doubt they will beat either HT version - good accessories will be the way to go, like a full Luke figure or so, or relaunch the hut
