Captain Antilles is the next 12" Star Wars figure

[galactiboy]

Yeah, they usualy do... but he's not a PPO, most likely will just go up with tonights newsletter. I'm still not sold on owning a Captain Antilles, definitely like the variety, but he's a little too scene specific and kind of a meh character for me.

Definitely prefer the Fleet trooper as he's not as specific, yet you still get the same ANH feel.

 

[Batty]

Yeah, looks like it goes up tonight.

With Troopers, Gandalf, Vader, Ki Adi, and BR Joker I am just not sure I will be picking this up. Too much going on.

 

[galactiboy]

Hope Captain Faramir sees this I know he always wanted an Antilles... another virtious figure for him to collect

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I'll cancel Ki before I cancel Antilles. Almost anything OT trumps anything PT for me.

like a hobbit.
i dont know if i'll get this one. i'll have to see him first. i do like OT characters though. and we could use some more rebels but why cant we get some of the x-wing pilots in their orange jumpsuits. and NOT luke. rather have wedge, or biggs, or porkins even.

I tend to agree with that statement, but I do like Ki and he's more interesting to me than Antilles. Just having a hard time getting enthused for this figure.

I would take all of those before rebel fleet troopers and Antilles EVEN luke!!

I don't care if there is an ES of only 500 of these. Still an easy...

 

[creature4000]

He's up for order.

 

[Lord Aykroyd]

Wow I really wanted him.... but he just looks so... horrible...

EDIT: Seriously, I cant get over this! It could be a HASBRO toy! They didnt even include hands to hold Vader's arm when he's being choked. Gwd Dmn IT!

 

[icruise]

I usually hate it when people say this about figures but... He really does look Asian to me.

 

[IronFingaz]

Got one but his face does look a bit weird.

 

[IrishJedi]

This figure has me vacillating between and

Ahh so.

 

[Wor-Gar]

No exclusive, not a "domestic exclusive"... what is this?

 

[IrishJedi]

Gotta be a Domestic Exclusive. They just forgot to make note of it, methinks.

And the Rebel Fleet Trooper looks like a MUCH better figure (with an infinitely better likeness).

 

[King Darkness]

This wins the award for boringest SW figure so far.

My thoughts exactly. I'm not impressed with this offering at all. I honestly was hoping that Sideshow would shock us all by making an exclusive with an alternate choking expression head sculpt and/or choking Vader hand. So much for hoping. Man, what a way to follow-up Vader and Stormtrooper. Sorry Sideshow, but you let me down with this one. I mean, what else can you do with him? The only time he appeared on screen was when he was being choked by Vader. I think the Rebel Fleet Trooper is much better than this. Unfortunately, I'm a completist so I had to pick him up. Guess I'll just pose him with my Fleet Trooper.
