Premium Format C-3PO & R2-D2 Premium Format Set

I do think its kinda cool that it's random

 

[furystorm]

Everything with Sideshow is random.

 

[hofmanjc]

No dent either on mine and more than happy with it.
Watch Ep.IV again and you'll see a good portion of the time the droids spend on Tatooine is with C3PO and no dent.

He gets the dent when the Sandpeople attack Luke. C-3PO falls and loses his arm and gets the head dent.

 

[myc]

yeah I know.. I dont know about the random thing.. I think for $750 people should have a choice what they get !

It's funny to see that people can be happy with mistakes that were made with a $750,- collectible

The rare mistakes are usually the ones that cost more in the long run, but that's beside the point.

It's a good time to be a Star Wars collector right now.
Anyone unhappy with their PF should get a refund if it can't be resolved.

Hi,

my C-3PO and R2-D2 PF set arrived finally at home. I´m very happy with them, but I have a question. How can I articulate the 3PO´s torso ? I know is possible because here in the thread we have seen it, but in my statue all seem to be very rigid. Where is the point of articulation ?

Its literally at the waist line Darth. Although, if i remember correctly, mine was very stiff and only got minimal articulation as i started to get worried i was applying too much force. It definately does bend though

 

[myc]

yes.. the black stuff at his waist is movable.. so you can bend him a hint to the back and also to the left and right !

 

[Centurion]

Bend him to get more extension in his back.
A classic 3PO posture.

 

[Darth Pakiti]

Ok, thanks you. I´ll try again over the waist line.

Ah, another question, in the box must be a instruction sheet or something inside, right ? I don´t have nothing in my box, I guess that they forgot it.

 

[myc]

not surprised.. they forgot my faceplate for 3po so you are lucky missing only the instruction..

 

[Centurion]

That really sucks.
I remember you finally got the faceplate, but was not content.

Did you ask for a replacement?

 

[penfold*david]

my C3PO came broke his plastic shoulder cover has poped off and i can't snap it back in place also a small piston on his tricep has snapped off
There was no instructions in my box

R2 is fine love the light show....... but anyway

 

[myc]

check the pistons.. they suppose to come off.. you have to put them in according to instruction

 

[penfold*david]

the piston hasn't come unsheathed it's snapped the very small sliding part

 

[Centurion]

the piston hasn't come unsheathed it's snapped the very small sliding part

Ahh, damn.
It's a fragile part of this piece for sure.

 

[DarthChrisDK]

Mine also broke off when I tried to work his one arm. Glued it back on, though since it was a clean break (nothing really broke).

sorry to hear that Dave, have you got any pics of your dynamic duo? Hope you get to fix the issue!

Hi Chris if it was just the piston i would glue it but his shoulder cover has poped off
