Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker 1/6

[galactiboy]

Surprised this is still available... I guess one benefit of smaller ES and charging for an exclusive is that people who actually want it will buy.

And MF, glad you were able to use the RP

Lotta truth in that.

 

[cerealkeller]

Got mine ordered. Almost forgot about it. Glad people are on the fence over the exclusive. Rotta is just too cute. Reminds me of my Persian cat's face for some reason.

 

[galactiboy]

Wonder if Rotta will look better by Jabba, or with the other PT figures? Probably just keep him with the PT as I think he's a bit too cutesy to look cool with Jabba.

It's too bad Jabba can't hold the little bugger.

I rarely use them and never used them before on a PPO so I wasn't thinking when I placed the order, but I had been specifically planning them for this figure, I really want it, don't have intent to cancel it, money would be the only reason, and the RP's negate that.

The Vader bust alone will recoup a good chunk of them I just used

Yeah, and it wouldn't work in terms of the continuity. I wonder what ever happened to Rotta...

 

[jason2885]

Its sold out now. I almost forgot all about this but I remembered that ohh its PPO today.


I got one and I still have my one of every Star Wars exclusive in tact.

 

[galactiboy]

Yep, that was my situation. I figure I would only use RP on something I could buy completely as when you buy the item w/RP you don't get any RP. Still have about $40 worth, but by the time Vader is out I'll have more than enough for another figure or two.

 

[MaulFan]

It's too bad Jabba can't hold the little bugger.

Sure he could, pretty sure you could prop Rota into Jabba's right arm, resting Rota's tail on Jabba's gut.

Won't know til I get him, but I wouldn't rule it out yet.

Not many people would get it, but they could make a second Jabba based on his TPM/ANH design and make sure one of those arms could carry Rota, I'd love a Jabba like that, more so made to look like TPM though, not sure why after the really nice CGI version in TPM, the ANH refit came out so bad, the first ANH version was better than the second.

 

[galactiboy]

Yep, didn't even think about the 20+year time difference

Same here, I got the Hot Toy Predator bust for the $8 in shipping, I got Frodo and Sam for shipping cost. I think the only thing I didn't get totally free was the AVP Alien, but it was still a huge discount and the only way I was buying that figure.

I would never buy a ANH or TPM version of Hutt... did not care for that look at all. But you are right about them being able to get him to work with Rotta... and hey, if they did that an SDCC exclusive could be made turning him into Ziro

 

[MaulFan]

I'd wager same thing that happened to Gardula. The Hutts being gangsters though, conceivably different ones were spread out post Empire to different planets, with Jabba being the head of the family, the Star Wars Don Vito

Yes, but he can't hold him up to his face with both hands. That's what I was referring to.

 

[zeiss]

I sure do want Rota, but I am not nearly as excited about Anakin. I wish I could tell myself that I am spedning $107 on more than a little inarticulate figurine.

 

[jason2885]

I just never think about using reward points on any thing. I think I have close to $800 worth of them right now.

I have an unhealthy fandom for Jabba, so I'd like a 1/6 of his 2 best renditions, which for me would be TPM and ROTJ, Jedi of course being the very best and thankfully Sideshow did a first rate job on that. Part of my desire also stems from the subpar quality of the Hasbro figures of him, I just would like to see a really nice rendition.

 

[MaulFan]

Yes, but he can't hold him up to his face with both hands. That's what I was referring to.

Ah, well I'd never have even done that so I didn't think of it, if I were going to pose Jabba holding him, I'd do so in a way that made both figures still visible, that way would hide Jabba's face and show you Rota's ass.

 

[galactiboy]

I really love Jabba as well, but its only from ROTJ. Just never liked how he looked in the SE of ANH... or really liked the scene being added back in. And in TPM he was just part of a larger sequence that I didn't really care for either.

But I respect your love for all things Jabba, and hope oneday you do have a slimmer/trimmer version that can cradle Rota
