Dagobah Luke and Yoda PF

[theropod]

I would rather see Yoda with Chewy from EP 3.

Really? That's not something I would have thought of.
I can't picture that as being iconic enough to justify a statue, but that's just me. Interesting concept though.

Or is it that you just REALLY want a PF Chewbacca?

And I get told to let others share their opinions. Isn't this pretty much saying if you don't like it shut up? Gruson you complain about something on everything so why can't those of us that would have liked to see someone else before another Luke say so? I'm gonna get it most likely just saying I'd like to have seen someone else before another Luke.

Yeah, I understand. I was just excited to see a new PF and could not believe so many people were complaining. I really see it as more of a way to give us Yoda and Empire Luke is a big bonus IMO.

I too would have rather had Maul, Fett, Stormtrooper, droids, etc released first...

 

[Mini-Rock]

I don't think I ever read the rule book that said a statue had to be "iconic" in order to be made. How about making something cool, and unique...something badass!

The more I look at it, the more I'm drawn in. With all the rumors of Boba being next, I'd started to look forward to that, so this was a huge surprise for me. At first I was a tad bit disappointed, but after Dusty's comments, I've come to look at it from a different standpoint. It almost sounds like the base will make this kind of like a diorama, & that could mean this could end up looking much different than the other PF figures released so far. Despite being a 2nd Luke, it could very well outshine not only the first Luke, but many of the other PFs they release. I'll have to see more pics, but I'm excited. Hopefully Sideshow offers Flexpay from the beginning on this like they seem to be doing with most of the other expensive items.

As for the exclusives that I think would rock:

-R2-D2
-part of the crashed X-Wing coming up out of the water
-the sounds of Dagobah could be pretty cool too

I think this deserves a dancing Wookie or two

With all the talk of Yoda being with Luke in PF I had no intention to buy it, now I'm wavering with Dusty's comments. Funny how much sway she has with us, anywhere else I'd think she'd been told to say that to generate interest, but around here when an SS employee says something rocks you bet it does!

The one thing that bugs me about this (aside from the fact that it takes up one of the few open spots I have left) is that I don't know how I'll arrange things (assuming I break down and get it) dunno if the two Lukes should be together or who to put with who. Collecting is hard work.

Here's a link to that interview from almost two years ago:

Early Star Wars PF Interview With Tom Gilliland

Highly probable figures after that: Boba Fett, Yoda/Dagobah Luke 2-pack, R2-D2/C-3PO 2-pack, Darth Maul, Qui-Gonn Jinn, X-Wing Luke

Luke was listed after Boba Fett, so if he has been delayed then maybe he really is going to be next, followed by R2 and C-3PO, and then Maul.

Hurry up!!!!!!!

Man, I can't wait to see this place after X-wing Luke is announced.

[Darth Loki]

Sorry boys, I've been in Baltimore all night to come home to the best news in a news letter yet!!!!!!!!!!!

All I can say is YYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've stated in many threads that this was one of if not my most wanted PF and now it's here. I should've been asleep 2 hours ago and I don't think I'll need any sleep for a week after this. Words coudn't express my excitement for this piece! And I should have my Maul bust in 2 days, someone up there loves me!

And Tom, I'm still holding our for a Fett at SDCC for ya?(and me too of course)

 

[Batty]

I, for one, am very excited about this. In the past 6 weeks I've bought Vader, Han and Luke. I have Grievous on order and I'm shopping around for Obi-Wan.

As far as another Luke being next in line, it doesn't matter. In a few years when you look back at your collection, will you think about what order they were released or will you just proud to own them? I know we were all looking forward to a different character, but it's only a matter of time.

The exclusive sounds like it could be something that a lot of us might want.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I love Luke's sculpt, but I'm not crazy about Yoda. He doesn't look like the ESB puppet.

Yeah... his arms are too long.

 

[darthviper107]

I think it looks fantastic, I would get it if I had the money. But I don't---but maybe I will


Looks like it will be a fairly complex piece, probably why it took so long. I wonder what the exclusive will be? Severed Vader/Luke head?

 

[The Josh]

Oh I'm starting to really dig it. Getting over the shock. Just bring it on already.

 

[Darth Loki]

OK, it's had a few moments to sink in and HHHHHOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLYYYYYYYYY
$$$$$$$$$$$$HHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!

I'm still super excited about this!!!!!!!!!!!!11

You forgot the sixth stage... Ordering!!

 

[GSRJedi]

Yeah... his arms are too long.

And he doesn't have a hand up his butt.


An epiphany, now I know the true use for GG's "prostate exam" Boba statue.:chew

Very True

 

[SnapJimmy]

Yeah... his arms are too long.

The Lenth of Yoda's arms looks fine looking at this pic....

 

[tomandshell]

Lakeshouse, I just amused myself greatly when I read your signature as the caption to that picture.

It's appropriate for Luke as he is about to go down into the dark side cave and face Vader.
