2008 Comic Con Exclusives

[Praetorian380]

I think the one on the far left is a mini bust of a Star Wars Kaminoan from Kamino - you know, the guys who made the clones in Episode II.

That would be lame though

im hoping for clone wars anakin now that we are delving into CW lately. sans lipstick hopefully.

 

[siren3-4]

The one on the left is the Mark 2 archive set


yes....you guys are welcome

LOL . . . I forgot about that . . . LOL

 

[MaulFan]

Sheesh, if it's AOTC Obi-Wan, we'll almost have as many Obi-Wans as we do Lukes.

He seems too important to be an exclusive though.

That's what throws me off, but the general feeling I get around the boards anyway is that if people are going to get an AOTC styled Obi-Wan figure, the CW one that's available is the figure of choice, I haven't seen much support for regular AOTC Obi-Wan, so maybe SSC figures the small ammount that get the SDCC figure would be the only ones really interested in an AOTC figure. I'd be surprised as it's much more than just a variant, but it does fit into the camp of last year's con exclusives being figures that large masses wouldn't want but a select few would. I didn't hear any griping about Yavin Luke or Holo Sid being the exclusives from the standpoint of them being hard to get, only that people thought they should have been cooler items, so if SSC feels that AOTC Obi-Wan would get the same reaction, I could see it happening.

1:1 or Legendary scale bust only if that's what it was, which I had the same reaction, but Gentle Giant has the mini bust license.

 

[tomandshell]

Yes--Sideshow can only make 1:1 busts.

 

[pixletwin]

Its not a kaminoan.

 

[MaulFan]

Yes--Sideshow can only make 1:1 busts.

Couldn't they do LS busts too? I would think anything 1:4 scale or larger would be ok with GG having the 1:6 scale bust license.

 

[galactiboy]

I would pass on an AOTC Obi Wan... while I'm sure it would look nice its just not a version of him I would want. So that'd be a good exclusive as I would be able to save money on it.

 

[Darth Cruel]

I am sticking to the :No Star Wars 12" in the silhouettes" thought. How about the far right figure being a PF or 1:6 scale Ringwraith.

 

[Darth Cruel]

Its not a kaminoan.

I agree...there is no collar.

 

[galactiboy]

Don't think its a wringwraith... especially as a figure like that would be a larger edition size for people wanting multiples.

 

[Wor-Gar]

How about the far right figure being a PF or 1:6 scale Ringwraith.

As an exclusive!? That would be infuriating!

 

[choopie]

My guess for the figure on the right is Gandalf the White.

I don't think it's an Indy figure, and that's disappointing. So far, none of these appear to be anything I want.

 

[Darth Cruel]

True Dat. I aslo wonder what will be revealed for PPO at SDCC. An Inclusive Ringwraith would fit nicely there.

I also think we need to rule out new characters (so Ringwraith is out). I don't remember any of the exclusives being new characters alltogether (at least in the 1:6 scale).

 

[MaulFan]

I realize SSC has to make things that'll profit them, but I'd be a bit dissappointed if the left most silhouette is TX from Terminator 3, it'd just be another sign that the 1/6 T2 line likely won't be completed. Here's to hoping for a 1/6 John Connor on the new child body at SDCC, now that the Hobbits have premiered, there's no need to reserve the thunder of the new body.

i wanna know why'd they want to make yet another T3 product when they could make this and give me a bonero.

 

[siren3-4]

I am totally sold that the far left is the Mark 2 Iron man helmet:

[Rugby1970]

If the item on the left is a scale helmet is it safe to assume the figure on the far right is about 6" high or so? Could be a Hobbit or child... Any alternate dress ideas for Frodo and Sam that could be an option?
