I'm in Australia but mine have not made it passed Honolulu...looks like it will be next week for me...
 
I had no plans to get this. Until seeing recent images. My money was saved for a future HT releases (Penguin and Returns Batman). I don't want to go tangent with this guy. But something about him and the yellow draws me in. I think it is my childhood. I have Boba passed on IG 88.
Maybe I'll sit back and wait until this feeling passes!

Just finished releasing Bossk from his box. Sideshow really upped their game on this release. The detail, paint, clothing, build quality and accessories are all top notch. :clap

As usual, pictures don't do this guy justice. Having him in-hand is on a whole other level.

I have him displayed with Boba Fett, IG-88 and Greedo at the moment. Indeed, they look great together! Now bring on the rest of the bounty hunters!
 
Who managed to buy all of every pilot orientated part of his outfit in the minuscule amount of time it was parted out on TA? :slap
 
Yeah, SS have actually changed the shape of the head quite a bit, they made it more dramatic, bigger eyebrows and snout, the movie version was a lot rounder. Love him though. There is some small subtle futzing to do with his suit, little things, moving straps, bending tubes etc that make him look even cooler.

It is an improvement over the screen version (except IMO the "cow horns" look added to his peaks.) The onscreen mask - at least in ESB - was like it was on the small side and the actor's head underneath stretched it out to be more the rounded shape of a human head. SSC has restored a bit more "reptilian-ness."

Still, nostalgia...:lol

Overall, it's a gorgeous release, the only thing for me is the wrist articulation line, but Bossk's arms are pretty weird anyway (sort of like pine tree trunks crossed with Popeye's forearms) so it was going to look weird even if they nailed it.
 
Yeah, mine also says it has arrived at Alexandria (NSW I think), but since I'm in Adelaide I wont get it until at least Mon! :gah:

That sucks guys.

How did all you Aussies get yours already?!?! I paid on time too!:lol

My stuff always come quick from sideshow for some reason (probably jinxed myself now). I even had the first pics up at RS for the Stormtrooper PF. How the hell does that happen?
 
He's arrived, despite the snow, and despite him not being due until Monday!

Do Fed-Ex collect the customs fees after delivery? Never received a delivery from Sidshow before.

Yup it was nearly a week after delivery that they came back to me looking for their administration fee and the customs charge.

Usually they collect at the door, I just had an issue with them as Sideshow made a mistake on the customs forms for FedEX.

I e-mailed Sideshow about the error on the paperwork and was told they would not lie for customers on customs forms.:gah:
