I figured Boba was coming based on their Facebook page, but I fully expected a 1/6 announcement and not a 1:1.
on FB they said
"Sideshow Collectibles hmmm... this could be a double clue...Boba Fett Live-Size Bust has been revealed... but someone else among our licenses has a birthday TODAY..."
could still be a 1:6 fig..
Simon Pegg's birthday is today, if they mean a real person and not a character.
As for Boba, I'm glad to see the helmet look so nice and hopefully the 1/6 will match, but the bust looks strange, Boba without the back showing looks a little strange.
Spectral Motion, they've worked with them on a number of 1:1 busts including the Darth Maul. I think they're a company with laser scanning technology.
I wouldn't be surprised to see this at $500, there's nothing about it that jumps out beyond the standard 1:1 busts that came out to $500, Vader makes more sense with all the little bits to make up the electronics of his mask, the Anakin portrait on top of the helmet. This looks to just be a straight up sculpt and paint job.
