1/6th Scale Sideshow Tauntaun

[TonTon]

I think a small piece of velcro should hold it......lol


Seriously though, if you own an Indiana Jones figure, can you take a photo like your avatar? That would be epic.

Ha! I don't have one, but if I get a hold of one I will for sure. That'd an awesome update. I'm sure someone could hook me up otherwise.

This guy arrived today. Overall, I absolutely love it.
Would it have been great with real fur? Yes. Could the fur be sculpted better? yes.

But it completely rocks still. I wish they had put some instructions in about how to hang all the stuff off the saddle though, still baffled by the blanket rolls.

Yeah, I love this overall as a display centerpiece (couldn't afford it after the figs...) but the fur sculpt and snow/weathering to me was the major letdown and not on-par with the amazing SSC Dewback skin sculpt. The heads/faces also don't really look like the Tauns from the movie exactly but are extremely well done nonetheless (sort of like the way SSC Bossk isn't really screen accurate but is very cool nonetheless.)

Interested to see what you tweak!

C'mon, Rory....give us a pic with Indy on the Taun Taun!

Seriously, I need to update my avatar. Help a brother out!

Rorywan,

There are two sets of rings on the smaller bed roll. One set attaches to the saddle and the other set attaches to the larger bed roll.







Hope that helps!

Thanks man, it does. Rep'd.

While waiting on Han.

LOL @ Kerebos on the Tauntaun.

 

[robbiethepainter]

It was either that or StarLord. Neither have a place yet and are just hanging out on my counter.

Hey, with Disney having both Marvel AND Star Wars Under licence, Star Lord on a taun-taun could happen in one of the GOTG sequels

 

[TaliBane]

I just noticed that SSC went with a three toed foot on their Taun. There's been a few toys with the feet that way (the Hasbro 12") over the years but the newest black series Taun got the feet right. Maybe the feet would have been too fragile for the SSC statue if they had been screen accurate. The toes and claws are very thin.

Good point.

Ugh...don't give them any ideas....

 

[Rorywan]

Finally had a bit of time to set Luke up. I must say SSC should really have added a "side-glancing" eye head sculpt, it feels very iconic (to me anyway) to have Luke looking off into the distance while riding his Tauntaun.

 

[kl241]

Wow the mods you've done look FANTASTIC!

 

[Natedog]

Very nice! May can't come fast enough! I'm on a flexpay.

 

[Darthrazz]

I have my fingers crossed that I can still pick this up in December. Can't afford it right now. I wonder if I can flex pay that far out?

 

[jedijim3002]

Love that pic Rory. I'm dreaming of one day having the same display. Sigh...

 

[Fremen]

Thrilled with these.
