1/6th Scale Sideshow Tauntaun

[Pixelpiper]

cool thanks, so to clarify though can I use it for both of them or do I have to use it for one or the other. To get $50 of the pair might be the push I need to go for it.

Just to make clear and super-short what others have already said:

If you have a percent-off-cart coupon, then buy both at the same time.

OR

If you have only a fixed-dollar-off-one-item coupon (such as the one posted or a monthly $20 coupon), then buy them one at a time, using a different coupon for the second.

You need to be careful because even if the cart allows something, it can be reversed if disallowed in the terms of that coupon/code. That's not the surprise you want.

I can't believe this item sold out that quickly. I still haven't gotten mine. now i'm bummed out. How many did they make 100, i hope they get more in stock. this really sucks.

My original Idea was to Have Luke riding and Han standing next to it, now that neither figure is riding I am wondering what both figures might look like next to him. Has anyone else done this? If not, any one mind trying it out and taking some pictures? I'm trying to decide if my waitlist goes through if I should get Han, Luke or both.

Not exactly what you're looking for. These were taken some time back. Closest I have.

AMAZING Photos! I love the Hoth set up!

Yeah, nice set up! I love Luke on the Tauntaun with the binoculars. Makes me want to get those two!

Dammit that's a great display.

I'm guessing maybe Sideshow did a lower run on this because they didn't want it to be the next Dewback that was going to stick around forever (which is ironic because now they're crazy expensive when before Sideshow was heavily discounting to get rid of them). I would have gotten one of these but I was disappointed in the Hoth figures and a TaunTaun without a rider wasn't something I really wanted. I wonder how long the Speeder Bike will be around with this going so fast.

I'm so torn between quickly buying this one before it's gone or holding out for a dewback. But God knows if I'll ever find one at a reasonable price....I'm not paying $900+ for one, that's for sure.

Get this, wait till it climbs in value, sell it, then buy the dewback.

Don't want to beat the dead horse but it seems like such a shame to botch the neck seam for a switch out head that no one seems to care that much about.

Thanks, guys! I have to agree with you all, it does look pretty good. I ended up getting a detolf and everything is spread out right now but I should set up the Hoth stuff on that shelf again. I have an extra snowie and e-web too, but not enough room for everything. One day. One day.

Agreed. That's what's holding me back. Without that seam, I would have bought it within a week tops.

As I am considering picking up these Hoth pieces I am wondering what the different methods used to weather these figures with "snow" are. I've seen some beautiful work in this regard on the thread and other places. My concern though is not being able to remove it or not staining the material in case I might want to resell later.

I was intent on getting the tauntaun, but I ultimately passed on it. Space was always going to be an issue, and with HT making SW and the new movies coming out, I'm kinda glad I did pass because I'll definitely be needing the room for all those new figures.

Still, I would have loved to have it. It's a beautifully sculpted piece and the little accessories look great. The piece looks fantastic in all you guys' displays. It would have been the centerpiece to my collection, that's for sure.

 

[jedijim3002]

I still want one. Never ordered. I was waiting for the right combo of rewards and cash to hit before I pulled the trigger. I guess you can call me Greedo now!

 

[DarthNeil]

Still got my eye on this (especially as I just ordered Han and Luke finally) from a few other places-- shame I won't get the RP but once the coin's gathered I might still get this into my collection.

Surprised that this is already gone at sideshow. If you are on the fence about this I would jump on it now, I'm thinking about getting a second from bbts. The only thing stopping me is the size(box is enormous). Long term this piece is a winner that will be very expensive imo. Its a terrific showpiece with very short availability, and covers memorable scenes in one of the most loved films of all time. Maybe hot toys will revisit hoth han/luke but I highly doubt we ever see another taun taun.

$2500 animatronic Tauntaun in 2020 FTW.

Your seam lines up perfectly with the grout line in the floor.
