1/6th Hammerhead Figure

[Wor-Gar]

So what is the single most valuable Sideshow 1/6th Star Wars figure right now?

 

[Mike86]

Greedo seems to be one of the higher priced figures. He seems to go for over $300 regularly. Jabba gets pretty high too ($600 or more). I've also seen Emperor Palpatine go for a lot too.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Emperor is an awesome figure. It's the only one of Sideshow's that I can't see much improvement on HT's part to justify $229.


Would really like HT to tackle a new Greedo. It's the suit that needs upgrading for me.

I'd also be very curious to see what the heck HT would do with Jabba. Besides getting the colors correct, I wonder if they'd go real-feel rubber skin?

 

[LoveMinusZero]

The sculpt is great on Sideshow's Jabba, I can't see HT ever tackling him. Would anyone even want him in rubber?

It'd be great if HT did a Greedo, but I don't see it happening. I'd be happy if Sideshow just re-released him like they're doing with Vader and Boba. Has HT ever done a non-human? All I can think of is Davey Jones, even their robots are still closer to human than SW creatures.

 

[Wor-Gar]

HT did Chitauri, Alien, Predator.

 

[Invictus Sol]

Yep, I could see HT Greedo and Jabba, eventually. Lots of improvements they could do to upgrade both, especially Jabba.

 

[LoveMinusZero]

HT did Chitauri, Alien, Predator.

Somehow they didn't even come to mind, lol and I OWN an Elder Predator.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I know, I had to think a moment too. And I have two Predators and two Aliens.

 

[LoveMinusZero]

I also have General Ursus, which is a great rubber mask creature. That being said, I still don't see them doing much beyond main characters and troopers, I'd love to be wrong though. I'd also love Sideshow to dig back into droids and aliens, hopefully 4-LOM is a good sign. I'll most likely never get Greedo at this point, not without a remake/reissue.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I could see them doing a Greedo IF the Sideshow one really is getting $300+ right now on ebay. That's the numbers that HT likes.

Greedo and Ackbar are definitely among the most popular (unmasked) aliens in the OT.

I was watching this on eBay last night, no luck though.

Anyone have the Gamorrean Guards? I have been considering one.

 

[LoveMinusZero]

I've been waiting for Ackbar for so damn long now. The Sideshow Greedos really are going for those prices, it's messed up, but true.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Paint's not great on the Pig Guards.

Paint's not great on the Pig Guards.

Thanks for the info.

I almost wonder if Sideshow would revisit some of these older aliens. Seems like characters like Greedo, Hammerhead, Tusken Raiders, etc. are still wanted and probably would sell decently. I don't see Hot Toys doing Greedo or many of the aliens personally.

If anyone is selling Hammerhead, please pm me. Thanks.

I could see Hot Toys doing a Jabba with throne. He's one of the only alien creatures I could see them doing as he's a main villain unlike Greedo who just has a short scene before being shot.

Yeah, that's more likely. Not sure how aliens sell in Asia beyond Alien and Predator.

 

[demorathis]

I wonder if they'll have sideshow specialize in aliens and h T toys do humans and few masked characters...
However, I'd love to see Greedo made in the quality of Hot Toys...

In fact I hope Hot toys makes:

Tusken Raiders
Jawas
Greedo
Hammerhead
Bossk
4-LOM
Admiral Ackbar
Yoda episode V

Tessek aka Squid Head

Bib Fortuna
Jabba the Hutt and Salacious Crumb
Gamorrean Guards
Oola
Max Rebo, Sy Snootles, Droopy McCool

Emperor Palpatine

Ackbar has a chance only because he's in TFA.

Did he wear the same outfit? I didn't notice.
