1/6 Star Ace - 300 / 300: Rise of an Empire

[WhoaItsJBot]

I think Leonidas looks great. Probably looks even better with his helmet and shield equipped.

Really nice work on this figure... I do feel like he's a bit too tall and lean looking. Even so, still a very impressive figure.

 

[Gipetto0812]

my only issue with a hard plastic torso is the more than likely potential damage to the shoulders when posing from rubbing i.e. ACI bodies.

MMS220 Wolverine body is like that, just gotta be careful when you're moving the arms.

I have all the HT Wolverine's (except for DOFP) and they all have a soft rubber upper body (chest, neck, traps, etc) so it's a non issue with those.

This SA Leonidas though is all plastic which is why I'm concerned as with the ACI bodies, even gentle moving will scrape the shoulders. Has happened with both my Pangaea Greek and Roman general figures

any chance u can show the pics of the scraping so everyone knows how to handle these...

Given the proper clearance is accounted for in the torso mold, it shouldn't be an issue.

Artemisia please

in her gold armor or black armor or robes

 

[BrooklynWolf X]

Whoa...it appears they updated it. The one on display looks much better than the initial reveal.


Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

Looks the same to me. What seems different to you?

 

[DioramaMaker]

Good camera versus bad camera. That last photo of Leonidas is ace....Star Ace...heyyyyo. I'll see myself out.

Glad to see Themistokles in the works. Was worried that wouldn't be for a while. Agree on Artemisia. I have the GG statue, which looks phenomenal, but have wanted a figure for a couple of years.

I don't know tbh. When I saw the reveal photo, I was really disappointed. But then These recent pics show off the sculpt way better. And as someone else mentioned, it was the lighting after all.

Is he the lead in the sequel ? I havent seen it so not sure. Is it any good or worth seeing ?

Wow.
Fantastic looking figure!

Dare I say it? Looks better than HT's in those pics.

He is the main hero. The movie's worth watching for the spectacle, way over the top - don't expect any award winning acting performances though. If you liked 300 you should have a look.

The initial pics were disappointing but in the new ones the figure looks great.

Artmesia is the only saving grace - that women is bloody hell so pretty!

Well, I'm sold on Leonidas.
