I have a feeling before the month is over, we'll all be holding a crisp, mint Sideshow box, gazing through the plastic window of the figure we just received, saying aloud or in our heads, "Ben, Ben Kenobi? Boy am I glad to see you!"

Could be. I'm hoping so as it will make 3 sold figures Bespin Luke, Leia, and Ben and keep me busy reviewing figures.

By the beards of Antiquity! Your right! Oh holy day! I MUST get some pictures before the night is o'er! This must be my quest!
This was posted at Rebelscum, nice to see him robeless. I think it looks great, BUT, too thin for Guiness, I'm definitely going to add some pudge to mine to give it that little bit of extra likeness
That looks FANTASTIC!!! Trevor is a master sculptor!
I can't wait for the old wizard! :chew
EDIT: Is that a new right hand??

I hope my waitlist converts!
Sorry to disappoint you but no. That hand is from the exclusive Legolas. It does look great and since I don't pose my Legolas with it, it will gladly be joining Old Ben.
Man, that's a great looking figure!!! I don't think I've seen a bad one of Ben yet.
Please keep it that way.....

That likeness is just astonishing, easily one of the finest ever. I got on the wait list for the exclusive just a few hours after the pre-order--I hope it converts!
So far, just from the pictures alone, it does seem that way. He's definitely going to the front of the display for me.

That's really nice. The costume looks great too, it seems to be the right thickness but it doesn't look like cheap cloth. I think it's a perfect figure, now I just hope it ships after christmas because I really don't have the money for it.
I really, really hope the production piece retains the quality of clothing the proto has. The SDCC pic is perfect.
It is nice but it definitely needs some futz-luv.
That goes without saying, it's rare to see a Sideshow site image or convention setup where the clothes aren't really worked with to match the films, they look ok, but they're not as meticulous as we Freaks are
I think Ben will be the reverse of Bespin Luke; you can't get rid of the undershirt with Ben but I think keeping it and how it affects his white robes will actually make his shoulders and neck area look better, just gotta give him a belly.
I think we'll be safe, I've been very impressed with every Jedi's clothing so far. Ya Qui-Gon's could have been a bit different, but what we saw at Proto was what we got, it's not as though they ever went with lesser materials, and Ben isn't a special color like Plo and Kit, so there's little room for not getting the exact right shade. The color actually looks much like Qui-Gon's tunic.
This figure is so good I am almost tempted to buy more of them just so I can display one everywhere I go.
I just noticed he has Legolas' arrow poking right hand.
