Bib Fortuna image thread

[Memnoch]

Just think about all the plutonium those trucks must be going through. Let's just hope they don't run out because then only a lightning bolt can generate the 1.21 gigawats needed to power the flux capacitor.

Annnd back on topic, is it the 4th yet? Bib looks soo nice that I want him now.

I'm scheduled to get mine tomorrow...although I also have one of those wacky UPS delivery schedules.

Can't wait to see his tentacles in the kitchen.



(That's "tentacles".)

Bib's face alone will make these somewhat disturbing.

 

[MaulFan]

Naked Bib, hmm, you know what they say about guys with long tentacles...

 

[jedibear]

Ummm.....eeeewwwww!

(anyway...mine shipped...tracking number's not working though)

 

[Darth Loki]

Shipped, tracking # works, will be here on the 3rd.

It's mildly frustrating when you get a recycled tracking number. ...

Right! And getting no tracking number at all is equally frustrating. I received two boxes from SSC the other week, and of course I was on a holiday. If I had gotten tracking information, I could have notified my neighbor that I was expecting something. Fortunately he was friendly enough to accept the delivery for me anyway, so all's well that end well I guess. Still, bad service from the EU warehouse IMO. I'm looking forward to the improvements the EU warehouse currently is going through, like SSC has announced in this weeks newsletter. Approvement = positive! Sideshow always tries to to better, I like that.


Btw, still no pictures of Bib????

Well, that has never happened to me, but if it did I would sure be frustrated. Surprise packages are nice unless you aren't home and can't receive them safely.

I have confirmation from UPS as to what is happening with the tracking numbers. Apparently, in their system, tracking information will stay for 18 (eighteen) months, and apparently, Sideshow is who determines the tracking numbers, so for whatever reason, possible the large ammount of figures they're shipping out with the Star Wars line, they have had to go back to old numbers, so shipments are moving as they are supposed to, despite the tracking system still reflecting the 18 month old data in addition to current information.

 

[BadMoon]

I called UPS as well and they told me the same thing. In fact they acted like I was a moron for not knowing that. Oh well.

 

[The Josh]

That's interesting. Well, I'm hoping my new camera and card will be here when Bib does do I can take my pics with my new camera.

Look back a few pages I posted about 10 I think.

Love the detailing of the robe's backside. The way it's layered down. I passed on Bib but there's no denying he's looking good.

 

[MaulFan]

mfoga, is it just the lighting of your pictures, or does his robe actually taper from black to a shade of brown?

 

[Wor-Gar]

I noticed that too. I always thought Bib wore a black robe, but upon closer inspection I guess its very dark brown.

The upper part is a darker brown the the bottoms. Also on the from there are dark sections for the collar area and the bottom section on the front. you can see it the best in this one.

I never liked Bib very much, but his costume is looking pretty snazzy. For those of you who do like Bib, do you like how shiny he is, or would you have preferred more of a matte finish? I just saw the film and saw that he was a pretty glossy character, so I was wondering what your thoughts are. Glad to see so many people like the guy though (maybe it's the whole kenner action figure thing--I was born a few months after ROTJ came out so I don't have any OT nostalgia).

 

[tomandshell]

Bib is cool enough that I can forgive UPS for bringing him a day late:
