Re: Boba Fett 1:6 figure question/
I'd imagine buying it piece by piece would come out more than the complete one.

Wait for SSC to do a better job on a ROTJ version. Buying a complete Fett is probably the way to go.
Have a good read of the existing threads, both Medi and SSC Fett.

Just a little freaky
I love Sideshow's products and they are great in quality, but I have to be honest...Boba Fett is the only 1/6 scale Sideshow figure I own, as Boba Fett is my favorite character and the only reason I would justify anything over $100 on a figure of this size. I do, however, a large collection of the old Hasbro 12" figures.
Comparing the 2, obviously Sideshow's is much better and comes with good accessories (and that awesome light up stand), but I definitely don't see enough to make me feel that it justifies a $150 price tag over the $20 Hasbro figures.
Obivously I don't have any more basis for comparison, since he is the only one I have from Sideshow, but that's my 2 cents. I can't believe the figures are getting more and more expensive as they come out. Maybe a basic version, standard version, and excluse version should be in order for different price points?

Nice. Finally got one of these from a fellow freak. Can't wait. Let the futzing begin!
Due to the latest GoHastings sale, I caved and ordered the Fett. Looking forward to checking it out in person. Not looking forward to any possible tweaks required to bring it up to speed...

That's GREAT news! How much did he go for on Gohastings?
With the discount code, he was $137.00 in total!
I couldn't say no to that price.
More good news: Slave 1 should be landing here on Thursday!

Which Slave 1 are you getting? Or are you just referring to Boba being delivered?
No Slave 1 ship. Just that Boba is arriving tomorrow.

Just got mine in yesterday. Great piece of work. Even without mods or upgrades. I did remove the plastic backing to the chest armor.
I popped the head off and just sat it on top to see if I could get the neck to look longer but I'm not digging that.

You can position the head so it's in the middle, not all the way popped on but not just balanced on top

I was trying that last night and really like it.
These are almost the same size.

yeah,that marmit bucket really is awesome.
i find it embarrasing that the "old" marmit is superior to the new SSC ones
.just need to find a way to shorten the rangefinder,and bang,he is perfect!

Yup. Think I will probably cut it off at the top take a piece out of the arm and re-affix the tip. Should be alright.

It's actually pretty good without the body swap. I might try it just to see how it looks.
