Anything lower than $165 shipped since that's the cheapest I see on eBay Figured I'd support a fellow scummer if they're trying to get rid of theirs

There's 3 buy-it-nows for less than that up on ebay right now.

Whoops, wrong forum



So yeah, figure looks great and I can't wait to get one

 

[galactiboy]

You won't be disappointed... IG-88 is really some of Sideshow's finest work

 

[King Darkness]

I scored a regular for $157 shipped. Should be here tomorrow.

 

[Wor-Gar]

You'll love him, once you get the shoulders worked out.

Price has certainly dropped on the regular, but the EX seems to be doing quite well... looks like $250 or better.

 

[galactiboy]

Congrats King! Like WG said be careful with the shoulders... I'd suggest heating them with a blow dryer before you try to rotate them all the way around.

Luckily once they've been freed up the seem to stay moveable.

Also be delicate where you grip him, my thumb broke off some little spikey bits on the torso while man handling the shoulder lol

 

[Wor-Gar]

Oh yeah, and watch that spike in the front of the chest. That'll get you at some point.

I got it yesterday , this 12 inch is really impressive. Good news for the arrival of Grievous in six scale. The ligth up are very well done, scaling is observed, the beautiful paintjob. The magnet placed in the cartridge are really convenient and allow you to place the holster with ease and with a very good record visually.
The saga of bounty hunter begins at Sideshow and she could not start better! Boba Fett come on!

Pics again !!

Great pics, Anaking13. I like the contrast of him against that sandy, organic background. Cool pic of him guarding Solo, too. Looks good next to the carbonite.

Why is he fixating on the wall?

IG-88 is not fixed on the wall. If you talk about Solo carbonite; there are two points in the wall on which are hung the block which has two holes on the back.

He's just giving you a hard time for IG-88's face being turned to the left, as if he is staring at the wall.

 

[mortifactor]

he has no face, its 360 vision never understood why those protruding bits became his eyes, gives him a really goofy face that way

A friend just wrote the same thing on a French forum. I never paid attention to this detail!

 

[King Darkness]

Solid figure. I'm really impressed with Sideshow's engineering. There's an incredible amount of articulation. Was surprised with that.

Not much weight to it, I thought it would be heavier. Feels really fragile. The weathering isn't as nice as it could be, still more than acceptable.

And I think the on off switch on the bottom of the stand was stupid. Seems like putting it in the back so you don't have to pick it up every time would have been a better choice. Not that I'll use it much, or at all, but still.

Anyway. Pretty impressed with it overall. I'd give him an 8/10.

Oh, and heating up the shoulders was easy peasy. 60 seconds on each shoulder and they were good too go.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Chase, all those rings on his head swivel individually too. You can adjust his 'scream' face.
