Clone Wars Anakin Skywalker 1/6

[Glennfett]

got my notice,and the for the first time ever,i got a shipping total too!!!exclusive Rotta too!!!
AWESOME!!!

 

[VASith]

Got my notice as well! :chew

 

[galactiboy]

Yes, Anakin was the first figure announced on the new Pro, so he'll be the first shipping it seems too, could add insult to injury for anyone that just got KOTCS Indy and now getting Anakin if the body makes significant improvements.

Just noticed he's on the 1.1 Pro, not the 1.2. So he'll be a bit taller, but won't have the broad shoulders and new arms. But not a big issue as he's a fully clothed character and has shoulder armor.

 

[ProgMatinee]

yeah arms aren't all that important and hopefully the shoulder armor will give him adequate presence. I just hope he doesn't come out shorter than Clonobi, that would stink big time as I plan on posing them together.

 

[galactiboy]

The images showing the different prometheus bodies in the Production Blog seem to indicate that the 1.1 and 1.2 will be about the same height as a standard buck body.

Just hope when they release a 1.3 its a even taller body to help balance out the new figures.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

I don't have this one on order but I hope to get him later on. I can't wait to see some in-hand pictures!

 

[DarthNeil]

I can't wait for my Exc. to arrive-- but I wished they had included the backpack to carry Rotta... Maybe if they announce an Ahsoka that'll be her Exclusive...

 

[MaulFan]

The lack of back pack is pretty suggestive of a strategy to include it with an Asohka figure. If they made Rotta, they're aware of him in the movie and knowing he was carried in the pack and that the pack would make for an interesting display, and they'd know Asohka's prominence in CW. Put the pack with here and you'll likely get more sales of her. The only weird thing to me about that line of thought is, if you think she'd be a weak seller without the pack, why even make her then if you have to include an item that could enhance another figure with her.

Or I suppose they could have included Rotta and backpack with Asohka if they didn't think she'd sell well.

And that's what I think they did with Belloq: included the idol environment just to make him more enticing to buy. Because otherwise there would be no reason to put the two together.

Which would be helped (at least a bit) by having the new taller body.

Honestly, with us being content with the HT body swap, it's the hat that irks me the most. Whatever body he's on, he's gonna suffer from:

 

[Customikey]

I would have loved to have kept him, but I had to cancel my exclusive. I've come to really enjoy CLONE WARS, and I hope I can pick him up another time....

 

[BuddyGus]

I had both on order. Canceled the regular today. Hope somebody here on the waitlist gets it..

 

[MaulFan]

I had a regular on order thinking about bashing it into a ROTS figure with posable gauntlet hand, but it's too much money just to improve a figure that's ok as is.

 

[The Josh]

I would like to pick up a regular at somepoint. I think I may sell my Custom Hurricane Commander Cody to help get this figure.

got a pic of Hurri-Cody?

 

[The Josh]

got a pic of Hurri-Cody?

Yup, here ya go.

 

[Jaycepticon]

They're both pretty sick. I'm sure you'll have no problem selling that. I'd even consider if I knew whatever price you decide on

Cody is cool. The 501st was actually done by Dark Artist and I have a custom shock trooper done by him as well.

Thats the thing I'm not sure what a fair price is really for something like that Cody. PM me a range you think you'd be willing to go if you want.

 

[MaulFan]

Being a custom like that, you should get a minimum of $200 for that Josh, there's a lot of labor put into that, it's not like it's just a repaint.

You can throw my PM out the window now, Josh
