Well, mine said I'd be charged on 9/6. In 2 days. And will ship within 10 days.
But it can vary sometimes from a few days to a week or so.
Yep got my processng soon email too.
My last flex payment got pushed back to October 5th, so luck of the draw, I suppose...
I've had mine for a few days now. The Shaw head sculpt is the real stand out, with some of the sharpest detailing i've ever seen, really nice. The eyes are a tad loose on mine, as in the slightest touch and they move.
The most disappointing part is the cape. It's doesn't drape very well, and there's some awful stitching on the shoulders, which makes it bunch up. It's a step backwards from the nicer capes that came with the R1 and TESB versions.
Despite the issues though, he looks beautiful on the shelf

Nooooooooooooo!!!
Something that came as a nice surprise was that both the lower neck braces that plug into the body are the same. So you can easily swap out the Shaw head or the mask without yanking the whole of the head off every time.
There's a separate adapter that needs to be used when displaying with the mask. It basically works in the same way as the 1/4 scale version.

Can you use the ESB cape on this ROTJ figure?
I prefer the eye shape on this new one. Despite the small nose and no visible scars/bents underneath the eyes, it looks great, and way better than TESB effort.
It's just a pity they didn't go the whole hog and re-work the lower neck brace as well, as it's the same mould that was used on the Empire version, with the tusks facing ever so slightly downwards.
Thankfully yes.
Going off topic, i'm off out tonight to watch STAR WARS on the big screen.
Despite it's flaws i'd say the new mask/helmet is the best in 1/6 thus far. The eye shape along with the more accurate two tone paint scheme puts it above the others.
Swap it onto the Empire version and you'll have a very nice upgrade.
