I really want this figure. I loathe the prequels but some of the character designs are badass. Im having trouble pulling the trigger on a $250 plastic figure that comes with almost nothing. Why are these prices so high now with sideshow? This seems like years ago it would have been 120-150.

Almost nothing? 2 sets of arms, 4 lit sabers, 4 unlit sabers, 1 gun, 1 magna rod, cape, and a separate face if you get the exclusive. What more do you want?

Well $250 deluxe figures often come with props. My deluxe joker came with all kinds of crap. Now $250 figures some with hands and weapons, no props. Seems like the prices are bloated now. I want the figure but for 250 im on the fence. Wish his armor was metal at least.

Mine arrives Tuesday from AE. Gotta figure out a place to display him...
I advise you don't get it, you won't be satisfied with it, I can tell. Save your money for HT Joker 3.0.
It took a lot of engineering to get this to work and also they cannot reuse the body, feet, hands, etc on other figures to cut down on cost.
They are.
I am not a SS fanboy but I took a shot with Vader. I debated buying Ex Vader as I bought then sold Malgus (not impressed). Vader is absolutely amazing well worth the cash. I jumped on Ex Grevious wait list hoping to be as pleased with it as Vader.

Your're kiddingThe red from the cape is bleeding into the plastic.
I wonder if hand washing the cape with warm water and detergent would get rid of excess red dye. But then you run the risk of it running into the grey. arrgh. Bummer.

Could it be from the humidity?

Phew, good point. Definitely not something I'd risk water treating, now that it's been mentioned. Man that would suck to ruin the cape.Your're kidding

Seriously? Into the bone colored bits? I've got to check mine tomorrow. That's really bad news if that's true --- I either can't use the cape or I have reddish shoulder on Grievous over the next few months. Can't wash it off either because you'll scrub off the bone texture detail.
If this is true, and it ruins my figure, I swear to G it will be the last figure I buy from Sideshow.
