Sounds very promising...but (sorry!)...I hope he wasn't serious about using the 9" body to become a 12" body by simply swapping arms and legs "modularly". :sick

Why not? If all you have to do is switch a couple things out it saves time and money to US by doing this. You want a brand new HT style body strictly in 12" size then you better be willing to pay more.

Again, you don't get to have it cheap and brand new/improved at the same time. It just doesn't work that way with anything.

The $5 price increase that will cause. :lol

I'm already preparing my speech.

I've read that one already. :lol

I think my favorite part of this is the fact that Prog never gets mad the way claude used to.

This could well be Josh's demise...:monkey1

I'm not getting mad either. I'm actually laughing my ass off when I'm typing my replies. I've battled meaner, better, nastier posters than Prog. :rotfl

Why not use a torso built for 9" Hobbits and children to represent full grown men?

Are you f'n kidding me? This is the point where your ridiculousness comes in, dude. You'd rather justify the retardedest concept like that if it spared SSC effort than to agree that a figure representing a 6' fully grown man would look ridiculous with the body of a 4.5' child.

I'm already complaining about the arm length, this would make it worse!

Whether I or others are willing to pay more for it or not is up to the market, but I will say the ditching of the Art S Buck (and not a half ass ditching like you suggest) is crucial in the long run for SSC as a company.

Considering I'll be without a computer in 2 hours my guess is yes.

I'm sure today will not be the end of it.

The question is, will he post anything of merit with it?

Beyond displays of boundless optimism? That's a good question. He does have the harder case to make, and just the fact that he can endure an unyielding critique says a lot.

I don't have Jedi Luke, but I do have Han sitting here next to me, and I have to say, the arms don't bug me. Or the hand. Maybe I should trade my abstract math knowledge for some in human anatomy.

If I understand it right the torso is the same it's a matter of the arms and legs. So if it's possible to do that I don't see an issue with it.

Man! You are one rude son of a ***** aren't ya!? I mean seriously. Let's see today you've called me an idiot, ridiculous, and a retard. You're just plain and simple a ****ing dick and are no better than the **** I just took. Who the **** do you think you are to come off talking to me like that?

If the body is modular and can be tweaked to look good on a normal figure then there's no problem. If not then guess they'll have to work with Hot Toys on something. However, to come at me with the absolute lack of respect shows what kind of a person you are. If you talked like this to anyone in person they'd beat the hell out of ya.

I don't think ditching the Buck body is all that crucial or not as much so as you want to believe. Then again I bet you believe Barry Bonds didn't take steroids too. :lol

Well, hell all I gotta do is post a :emperor smilie and it has more merit than anything you've ever said in your worthless **** ass life. Go screw a goat or would that be your girlfriend? I can't remember :lol

So optimism isn't anything of merit? Huh :confused:In other words you've to be a *****ing moaning worthles turd like prog in order to have something to say of merit. Ok I get it. I'm still gonna be positive and happy with how I collect. Especially since I don't know how many people came up to me and said they appreciate the way my positive attitude is on this board. Guess I'm doing something wright.

How is my case harder to make? You can tell by the pics Bespin and Yavin Lukes arms are fine. Case closed. :D
 
Yikes... this thread got nasty quick.

And sorry Prog if my comment was taken seriously... I just think it was funny that people were moaning real bad about the collar issue and groping for nefarious conspiracy theories when it was an issue that was being addressed.

So it was more of a general statement that if people would freak out less about the figures, things would go a lot smoother. And the comment was meant more generally than at any specific person.

And don't worry about the post count... if you keep duking it out with Josh you'll pass us all w/in a week :lol
 
I think the bunny rules. The baddest of the bad venerate his power and seek to emulate the divinity of his moves.

:bunnydanc:bunnydanc:bunnydanc:bunnydanc:bunnydanc


Tom, what is that picture?

It's a big group of people gathered around to watch a **** fight!!


And I won't be happy until they fix Luke's collar and make it look more screen accurate:

Darn it tom... that was the promotional collar, not the screen version! You can tell since the spikes lack the rounded top. Geez... even with your post count we can't do anything good with you :lol

Especially the ones with sharp, pointy teeth.

And yes indeed things have turned nasty. To quote from Hot Fuzz quoting from Bad Boys II---

"This ***** just got real."

I haven't called you a retard. And I haven't called you ridiculous. I said you support retarded IDEAS and that your STANCES are ridiculous.

I did call you an idiot. I admit to that. But can't say I was wrong based on this beligerent banter.

If you think that is worse than calling me a **** or calling my girlfriend (news to me btw since I'm married) a goat then you've got issues. But then again we knew you were never one for walking on anything other than Mobius' planes...LOL.

Lack of respect is what you show me you hypocrite. One with so much experience in forums maybe should learn to live with others on it.

You're such a tool, and you can add that to the list of names I really called you.
 
A true humanitarian :lol

Well hopefully now that we've resorted to name calling we can now all be friends and happy that tomorrow we get to Pre-Order a badass Bespin Luke :rock

Or not pre-order if that be the case :huh

:grouphug

Chill Josh. I'm on your side here for the most part. It's a harder case to make because these things are not an issue for you, and they are an issue in hi-def detail for Prog. I could stand here and try to defend how much I like the Anakin figure, and how the lips aren't an issue, but if someone absolutely insisted on hating the lips, honestly, what would I have to say based on the facts of the figure?
