Dagobah Luke and Yoda PF

[hairlesswookiee]

im down for this one!!! woo woo.

 

[KitFisto]

I'll get it more than likely, but I am not so thrilled about another Luke so soon in the line and also would have liked a Yoda stand alone. Oh well, it still looks like it might be a really nice piece that I will buy.

Rocks the house. Probably being too literal, but maybe they had some magnets left over from the new star wars boxes ....could make a cool levitated rocks effect. Probably be a production nightmare though.

Need more pics.......

 

[hairlesswookiee]

yeah im gonna say i think the exclusive is gonna be something like the rock pile he was stacking with the force. im all excited-- now im gonna watch the original OT on dvd this weekend.

Am I the only one who thinks Luke looks a little too happy to have Yoda on his back in this pic?

I'd loooove to get this, but no room and no money make Mikey something something.

Go crazy? :maul

 

[Darth Loki]

I'm a little excited about this.

Could care less what the exclusive is. Just icing on the cake.

Funny, I was thinking Yoda looks a little too happy on Luke's back.

LOL...they are definitely sharing a moment with that glance

"Brokeback Dagobah"

 

[CookieMonster]

And the moment they are sharing? The realisation that Yoda has just wet himself He's realised too late he should have asked luke to stop hiking minutes ago. Luke's expression represents his inner jedi thoughts... Did he just piss down my back? or am i sweating far too much?

Wow. It looks an amazing statue/diorama thingy. I will be getting one!

:chew :chew :chew :chew :chew :chew :chew

Awesome idea, but Unfortunately impossible.

For magnets to repel, they must be anti-aligned, i.e. North-to-North or South-to-South. But, this is unstable, as the magnet will desire to flip 180 degrees, at which point they will attract, not repel. There are some cool toys that get arount this by including a spinning effect (a floating top). Angular momentum of the spinning object stabilizes against flipping over, and the magnetic repulsion can be maintained ... until wind resistance slows the top down. The upshot is, that you some mechanical support either way. OR a superconductor ... I fear this is outside even PF buck-range

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!!!!!!!

First of all, I am more than thrilled to hear another PF annoucemnt. I know we already have a Luke but this one is so much more iconic. And after looking at Tom's post, Fett and Maul shouldn't be too far away.

I don't know about that...I think the ANH Luke is more iconic for sure. Classic scene.

 

[JohnnyFavourite]

I prefered another character like many others, but it's a must have!
My first reaction was wow, this piece rocks.
It seems to be an awesome sculpt so far and Farmer Luke isn't that cool!
Can't wait to see more.

 

[gambit]

I do not have the first luke, I never save some money to buy it even sometimes it was sold for only 110$ in evil bay

Although I previously said that I am not happy with another Luke (which I am still not happy) just for considering the fact that I love diaromas I might buy this one.
But still I remain my position that I am not happy with this announcement.
Bring on dark side

Listen to the man he is a Physicist....

I wonder if SS can comment on why Yoda isn't released by his lonesome (yet ...)? Dave brings up a good point with the licensing.

Would you want a 1/4 scale, 6-7" PF character? I know I wouldn't. The hobbits are about as small as a 1/4 should go. If they're not going to do the lifesize (which I'm guessing Gentle Giant has the rights to), then this was #1 on my list of PF's.

Perhaps it seems odd, but yes I would have preferred it to be solo. SS could have incorporated a taller base, but Yoda solitary with cane is what I would have liked. This is a nice piece, and certainly a great moment from the OT, but if I had my druthers ... well I said it.

Reading through the thread again, I found this pretty funny:

Right now I'd have to say no I'm not gonna get it.

I might order it once I see more pics and depending on what the exclusive is.

I'm more than likely gonna get it mainly because this may be the only Yoda PF piece we get and I know the detail in it will be amazing.

I'm gonna end up getting this my intial shock was that we where getting another Luke so soon.

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