I've been excited about this figure since I found out that Sideshow got the SW license:cuckoo:, but of course I thought we would see him alot sooner than this:impatient:. Oh well, as long as I get a Sideshow version, I'm a happy camper. I'm sure he will be more than worth the wait. I have both of the Medicom versions as well as some others but this will be the crown jewel of my collection. At least until I hear that HT will be making a DX version:slap. :gah:Somebody Stop me!!!!!
 
I have been told May

I just went with SS on this one. Although Case Fresh offer free shipping over $100 bucks so in the future I may do more shopping with them.

If SS would have made Boba back in 2006, he prolly wouldn't look that great today. :lol

DX Boba with pers helmet?
 
I just received an email that said "Chances are slim for those on the Exclusive Wait List", I'd have received one of those before...found it a bit interesting.

As for the point above, I absolutely agree. Fett looks this good because of the progression in SSC's work and stuff like this makes me wish that they actually would go back and remake some of their older figures which just aren't on par anymore.
 
Although I agree that the older offering from Sidehow do seem to be a little dated, now, I would not want to see Sidehow revisit any of them yet. There are too many unreleased characters and Sideshow's releases are too slow.


I would be OK with them re-doing them later on, but I think it stands to reason that 5-7 yeears from now, we may be saying the same thing about current releases. So it would be a waste to re-do any of the older figures now with so few charaters released so far...in relation to the amount of time that has passed.

You found me out! I've been sending out emails like that to get people to drop their waitlists so I can get my own waitlist fulfilled! :mad:

That's why I think the relationship they have with Hot Toys is a win-win. Hot Toys can re-release iconic characters that desperately need an update. Sideshow can keep cranking out newer monsters, aliens, and armored characters, and everyone is happy! :hi5:

I really would like to get my hands on a new 12″ Darth Vader figure and General Grievous with some accessories. Any plans in the near future?

Hopefully you’ve had a look at our General Grievous figure! We are developing a new Darth Vader too, and we’ll be showing him off sometime in early 2012.""
