a new hope leia!!

[Buttmunch]

I'm wondering if her little blaster in the photo will be the exclusive this time around. It can't be a Stormtrooper blaster because the Stormtroopers couldn't come with one. The interigation droid is HUGE (or so I've been told) so I doubt that... at least without a $5 or so mark up on the exclusive like Han.

With The CIV Luke announced, I almost missed the Leia annoucement! Next week is Spring Break so I WILL be home! No lectures this SW PPO!

Boushh will definately be wearing the helmet head now. Strange. TWO Leias before even the first ships!

Great announcement!!! Nice to see some OT and even ANH love! I was just thinking before I saw the newsletter that if we have no announcements tonight I was gonna start getting worried!

But 2 main characters from the OT in one night is pretty cool! I do hope that the Yavin is a variant of Farmboy Luke

I doubt the interrogation droid would be an expansion pack. There was only one droid (not three), and the Sith Probe Droids are far more popular in the SW collecting community. Plus, many considered them vital accessories for Darth Maul. I doubt as many people care about the interrogation droid.

I meant as an exclusive with leia. Since they've already done droids.

Rebelscum is reporting that his is an ANDY sculpt! Yeah Andy! Great job as usual. Any more left?

I thought SS wasnt doing figures if they were done in PF
well ANH Leia is my fav (well Slave Leia in metal bikini but thats for other reasons) so Ill be ordering one for sure

 

[gambit]

It is suprising to see that everyone is happy

me on the other hand, get sick and tired of same characters.

why we need another leia, when there are hundreds of other characters in SW

and take into account that some collectors will cancel leia boush due to this announcement.

 

[jason2885]

I cant wait to get this Leia. Now we need the rest of the ANH figures.


And in case no one hasnt pointed this out this is the first of figures thats coming as a 12" after being a PF.

I think A LOT will cancel Boushh. I never even ordered her since the only Leia that goes with Jabba is slave Leia.

 

[darthviper107]

I don't really see lots of people canceling Boushh, that figure is one I'm really excited about, it looks so incredibly awesome there's no way I'd cancel.

 

[jason2885]

Me too, I will drop every other line I own before I will Sideshow 12"


BTW I hope this is a new female body for this Leia

 

[MaulFan]

I'd be somewhat surprised if there were a lot of Boushh cancellations, it's not like it's really a Leia figure, if it werent for the revealled Leia head it'd just be a cool looking bounty hunter, and many got her to round off the Jabba setup, so I wouldn't think this Leia would have much bearing on those orders, I certainly wouldn't have bout Boushh thinking of it really as a Leia figure, I got it for what it is, now if they would just get her in that bikini

Yah, I guess you are right. I just saw a few people mention that thery would probably cancel her now and thought maybe a lot would. I guess she is different enough to keep.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

This is a great ANH choice. Man I hope I can be at the computer for this preorder next week.

 

[Great Ape]

The head sculpt looks very lifelike. Please let the final version look like this!!! PLEASE!

 

[EVILFACE]

Nice, she looks great.

So is Sideshow going to tape her boobs down like they did in the movie?

 

[dekadentdave]

Carrie Fisher might have something to say about this sculpt like she did with the Gentle Giant statue at ComiCon.

 

[Seretur]

Why would she object to it? It's not like her booty will be showing in this one.

 

[Khev]

I'd rather just get the PF and know I'm getting something that looks like its proto.

I was wondering when someone was going to say that.

It looks great, but the protos always do....

 

[dekadentdave]

No, sees, what they are previewing is a look into the future of the Figuremaster Les repaint. That's not what you'll actually be getting.

 

[Seretur]

This thing ought to look close to the prototype, as it's only two months away from shipping.

We're not dealing with GG here, anyway.
