He kind of has PERS :huh

Sideshow should probably have charged an extra $100 for the head segments to be able to spin :lecture

I meant like this, and i was only kidding. :lol
Can't wait for mine to ship!

Wait; you were kidding... no way :lol :huh (sarcasm implied)

Wish IG-88 was coming today; would have made my Monday less boring :lol
 
My tracking says mine was left at the front door, guess the signature on file worked for this one. He'll be waiting for me when I arrive! (and no I won't post my address so you can swing by and check on him, so don't ask :cuckoo:)

I'll have to wait until at least the weekend before I can get pics though, I have to many report cards to write this week. :(
 
Got IG-88 today. He looks really cool. I had to REALLY twist to get the shoulders to turn, but they did eventually.

Nice pic. A few more days for me. :(

I was wondering - what do you guys think of the base? I don't think I've read any comments about it.

The light is rather red (as opposed to orange). I wish Sideshow would have left it out and reduced the cost (it's not even film accurate). It's cool enough, but when ALL of my other Sideshow figures have the same stand, he really sticks out like a sore thumb consistency wise. I appriciate SS thinking outside the box, but I could have done without it. Now that I have played with him more, I think he is too light and delecate for $175.00. One leg fell off when I was moving him. I plugged it back in, but really......$175.00?????

Wow......first bad review
 
I like the base as a one off piece, but I don't think I want all my bounty hunters on them, they have a good size footprint, about 1 1/2 times the regular size plus the height difference. I wish he came with a regular base since this adds a good inch to the height you display him at. I'm glad the fett exclusive is the regular base, I think I'll use it and just keep one of these out for display purposes. I don't mind the red light, but I plan to switch it to a diplay with vader or a stormie instead of iggy.

Dont get me wrong....he's still cool. Just not worth $175.00 cool....especially when they threw in a base that has no relevancy just to jack up the price. I do like all of the articulation and the head light up feature.
 
Having (apparently) all the Bounty Hunters on the same stand would have made sense if it recreated the star destroyer floor and not Cloud City - makes no sense to me at all
 
Yeah, its a cool enough looking stand... but has nothing to do with IG-88. I too would have preferred a standard stand if it would have kept the cost down; but as it is I'm sure I'll put him on a spare stand and use this one for something else.

Its not a one off, Boba is coming with it too. Probably all of the Bounty Hunters I would think.

I agree. It makes zero sense with IG 88, but fine for Boba. I'm just hoping all of thes will connect to a Carbon Freezing chamber environment, thus making that cheaper in the long run while making it huge with the added bases.

A spare stand like Boba's Ex would have been a good move. But its not like SW stands are hard to come by. At least he came with stand. Poor Gammys.
