I think what bothers me most about the Fett bashing is no one is LOOKING at him. They are saying "It's plastic, it sucks".
What are you talking about? Of course people are looking at him. Even in these reviews, the details of the piece and overall look are applauded. But the fact of that matter is that the cheap, light plastic used in the piece bothers the crap out of a lot of us. Just accept that.
It's actually pretty simple. It may
look like a million bucks but many of us are bothered by how CHEAP it feels. And it's not just the figure. It's the base, too. The whole thing does not feel like a PF figure at all, imho. Sure, it may LOOK like one... but is that truly worth $325?? To some, yes. To others, most definitely no.
I spent the weekend at a friend's who has one of these. And, yes, it does look nice (and even the inaccurate helmet looks better in person than in the pics). But even though I was already more than vocal about the whole light plastic issue I was still stunned at just how light and cheap the thing is, including the base.
Bluntly put, this is an 18" toy action figure with 1 point of articulation. And that's fine, but I'm not shelling out anywhere close to $325 for it.
