Thanks for the pics! I'm glad this piece turned out so well!
The pictures distort the head a lot more than it actually appears, especially cell pix. If you saw it in person you might appreciate it more.man....wish i ordered the hot toys instead.....that thing smokes this SS version.
^ ok
1) i really do have a personal hate for SS for a variety of reasons that don't need to be brought up here. so everything i see i barf at. (truth be told)
2) its posable
3) better base
4) fuller. SS looks a bit skinny.
5) better cape.
6) -the shiny chest material under the armor. i don't know if thats a flash doing it or what. but it looks way too distracting to me.
if you put them next to each, like you did, my eyes IE personal preference goes to the HT.
i order that PF with RP, so I'm not sure what I'm going to do.....i don't really have an extra 4-5 bills burning a hole in my pocket right now.
its not that the SS is pure failure....far from it. but some of those things i mentioned really make the HT a more attractive option for me.
edit: the more i look at it i hate this yellow/off white material behind the armor. the screen shots I'm seeing from the movie (ESB) don't have that. not like this. what am i missing? man....this thing might be headed to the sales line.
I stopped reading at the first point because it completely invalidates any opinion your have due to clear bias
Typically if one is biased toward one thing then you already have a dislike built-in toward the other brand, so therefore it's natural to find ways to tear apart the other guy.Wait....what? You stopped reading? Omg no not that! Please god make this guy read it!
However i did read your entire comment. Please explain how someones opinion can be rendered invalid? This i need to hear...
.... I read your entire post for the record^ i have dislike toward ss but i still order items i think ill like. I order very few item made by ss. But i still order so its not blind rage....
To say that an opinion is invalid is like saying the truth is a lie.
Just be real and say "i did read it but i wanted to seem edgy and irreverent when in fact, i really have nothing to say."

Alright Crackerjacks,
I got some extra time before work yesterday to snap some photos of this piece, and unfortunately I have a few more to take in the daylight, but here's what I have so far
First off, what is truth?
And I figured I'd give your comment a read, despite my better judgement, and since I own both pieces, I figured I'd post some feedback. If I sounded a little standoffish, it's because I've waited patiently for almost two years for this piece, and it was my most anticipated. For someone to say it looks bad or a waste of money is bound to set me off. But anyway.
When I got my HT Boba, he came broken, and after I got a replacement, all anyone who has him, the toy anxiety that comes with posing him us extreme. I was sweating bullets every time I turned a joint or used pressure, because the figure feels like its going to fall apart at any time. Also, the ankle and arm joints suck, and make most poses impossible, if not extremely difficult or stressful.
I fail to see the "too skinny" argument. I have this thing in front of me and it's so not skinny anywhere. I guess you really need to see it in person.
And the yellow vest thing I think is due to lighting and/or camera flashes. It's more a cream color, but leaning more on white/grey than yellow, similar color scheme to the neck seal.

why is it different at all? was it like that in ESB? the HT version doesn't have that. this is the first Fett I've seen like this, so I'm just trying to understand. i DO see a difference, just not this much of one. Was it due to the lighting?

You sorta invalidated your own opinion.. If you say you hate SSC so everything you see that they make you "barf" at (your words) you have stated that your opinion "regardless of how well SSC might do" is already made up. It's like having an opinion on something before you ever see it. Sort of makes it invalid. Perhaps not to you since it's your opinion... But defiantly others.
Just my opinion anyways.... Which may be invalid
