Great work Asmus, love the hands and the sculpt.
Your best work so far Thankyou.

Love that shot!

I was totally going to pose him hunched a little with both hands on his staff ... but your pic is changing my mind!

Haha, thanks mate.
Thats what makes these figures great, we can change our minds.

How nicely does the base/palantir light up...?

Great pics, BTW, D..C

I haven't managed to buy the batteries yet so I'm in the dark but i just had a read of Michael Crawfords review and it looks good but there seems to be an issue with the light escaping a little.
I would love to change the colour of his robes but don't have the confidence just yet. A fat suit on him to fill out that athletic body he comes with would be the only other thing i would change.

Looks great. Did you water treat the hair and robes?

Yep, just a spray with the water bottle and then I made use of chewbaccas little comb.

Changed to imminent arrival at Timewalker Toys. Won't be much longer now.

Chewbacca has a comb? How did I miss that?

Oh, 1979 ... I don't miss you at all. Not even a little bit

I look forward to seeing what you do with yours

Can I ask why you got it at BBTS? I know you get charged tax at SSC, but it's $10 cheaper there, plus you can use the $20 off monthly code, making it $30 off. Plus of course you'd earn Rewards Points.

Thanks!

Well, first I didn't realize SS was cheaper. That's got to be a first. Second, I already used this month's code for Kylo Ren. Reward Points are definitely good, but with SS shipping rates plus tax for me in Cali, it cancels out any Reward Points gains (approx. $20).

Got mine. It's perfect. A job very well done, Asmus.

Yeah, you'd still probably come out a little better going with SSC, but I like BBTS customer service better, so I'd stick with them in your case. What mods are you thinking about doing besides dirtying up the robes some?

Besides the coffee bath, I think I want to raise his height a bit. And I want to try and solve the light-spill problem on the pedestal, even if I don't have the light working most of the time. I think that's about it, at least until I have it in hand.

Got mine. It's perfect. A job very well done, Asmus.

Love to see your pictures!
