1:6 Scale Sideshow Old Ben Kenobi

[galactiboy]

Well the 3-5 day notice just arrived the other day... so I think there is still hope. But if not, its not like I'm really going anywhere so I'll be fine if its a bit later.

They still have all of next week to ship it, so I am pretty sure that mine will beat Santa to my house.

Hey we deserve some benefit for the sales tax and indifferent shipping prices as if we lived in Madawaska, Maine.

Canadians the country over are biting their tongues....

I know, I know Dave, you guys get screwed over. How much are you and Amir paying now? It really sucks because there are people in the US that are geographically further away from you that are paying less. I just wish Sideshow offered USPS for Californians because Priority shipping would be half the current price of which ever carrier they are using UPS/FedEx.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm really excited about getting this figure. I seem to get shipping notices every day from SSC, but the invoice saying what it is doesn't get sent until the next day, so this week as been a rollercoaster.

Tuesday - shipping notice - Is it Ben?
Nope - just that boring old Medicom Jango ing
Wednesday - another notice -
but it's just Rambo.
Friday, another one - could it be?
Nope - it's just that $300 HT Copperhead.

Where is BEN!?

Dave, you do know the ship notices list the order number so you can check your account right?

Trevolver...thank you so much for posting these images of this amazing figure...your work is stunning. The sculpt has so much character.

And I heartily agree with MaulFan...please direct your talent to producing TPM and AOTC Obi-Wan as well....

When all was said and done, Elizabeth Swann was $184

Yah, but you have to look it up. Where's the fun in that?

 

[OSCORP]

Wow i musta missed this one.. Incredible

 

[Trevolver]

my green wall looks frighteningly similar to Episode 3 green screen.........


maybe Old Ben can have some adventures with Jar Jar Binks......

I've got a bad feeling about this...

Not too surprising. Did you know that Tom actually did some work on Jar Jar? I can't remember exactly what it was, but if memory serves, he painted some, if not all, of the Jar Jar costume that was used while filming.

From what I understand (even though he's denied it in an interview I did with him a couple of years back), Tom's got a soft spot for the bumbling Gungan...

I'm actually looking forward to Binks, but hope we get Obi-Wan, Padme, and Ani at the same time or at least close to the same time.

 

[pixletwin]

I've said it before and I'll say it again, I would love a 1:6 Jar Jar.

 

[Captain Faramir]

Wow. I'm glad somebody would, because I wouldn't.

 

[Memnoch]

Hey count me in as wanting a nice Jar Jar becacuse the more figures we get, the less we have to custom and eventually do our own 1/6 Phantom Menace movie.

 

[galactiboy]

Wow. I'm glad somebody would, because I wouldn't.

Your stock just went up in my book my friend!

 

[LordAzrael]

Dunno why you would buy a SSC Old Ben when for the princely sum of $A265 you could have this!
