Darth Maul – STAR WARS Mythos Statue

[soundwave]

Yes he is.

God damn that's made it no easier at all!!

I've never seen that style before, is there any source material about that features Grievous to explain that style?

All I know is that it’s from his pre-cyborg days. My knowledge of the EU is very small so I am sure somebody here can explain the story.

 

[slynger]

Yes he is.

This pic makes it look like possible swap out heads! He falls outside of my OT theme, but I have no doubt he'll look great.

 

[Mr. Nice Guy]

He's coming. Oh, yes, he's coming...

That's what she said

Thanks for that.

Just been reading up on Wookiepedia about him.
Hopefully he'll appear in some books as I'd love to read some proper fiction based around him.
By the sounds of things the Huk War era would make for an awesome read.

Got Maul today from a fellow member! First impressions are that he is very impressive and well done. Both heads are extremely well detailed. All switch out parts are very nice and make it hard to decide how exactly you want to display him.

When the Mythos first came out I was a tad disappointed by the basic base... Seeing it person, all I can say is classy.

He will look great with the Mythos Vader and Fett.

I will post photos and more thoughts tonight.

This is the only one I have... I don't have Obi or GG and Vader and Fett are not out yet.

I got this almost on a whim. I thought he looked great but I am not a big PT fan... In fact I am pretty sure this will be my only PT item. But He is the coolest character of the PT and I thought he would look good with Vader and Fett.

If I were to rate him I would have to say if you are a Maul fan or PT fan then this is a must. The paint apps are amazing. Does anyone know how SS got all the tattoos so perfectly. No going outside the lines at all. at 1/5 scale he is still a presence in my room.

If you are on the fence at all I would say go for it. Especially if you are getting any of the others as I think they will all complement each other very well.

I would say this is a 10 out of 10 for Maul fans. Now I have never seen the PF in person but I like this piece better.

The one I have also does not seem to have the Shinny paint on the head and the Dull paint on the body.. Both match each other very well.

Thanks, I like other peoples opinion.. even if I have him also. I saw the Premium and I like the mythos better..its just smaller..

Well you are saving at least 35.00 in shipping... You can also make an offer I am sure.

Yeah I like to hear other peoples opinions also. I will be doing some sort of review in the future for my Blog here at this site.

I love these thing because you are allowed to use your imagination. I am no writer but this is how I picture the story to accompany this piece.

Mind you I am no writer but this is how the story basically goes in my mind.

Darth Sidious discovers the whereabouts of the Jedi Master who threw him out of Jedi training as a youngling because he could sense the anger and rage that was in him. This Jedi Master was named Amon Toth and though he almost lost his leg in battle and required the help of a staff to walk, he was a very powerful Jedi... However he grew tired of the politics of the Jedi council and went to the caves of a far off planet to study the force and live in piece.

After finding out his whereabouts Sidious Sends his Sith Apprentice Darth Maul out to kill his old Jedi teacher and orders him to bring back his walking staff as proof of his victory. Then he will be a true Sith. Maul locates Amon in his caves teaching monk like students the ways of the force.

Maul makes his intentions to Amon known and though Amon is resistant he tells his students to stand down, draws his saber, and begins his duel.

The battle is hard Fought and very even. Amon uses his saber as well as his staff to keep Maul at bay but as time passes Mauls anger and rage as well as Amon's age begins to take it's toll. Maul begins to toy with Amon. Until finally Maul runs Amon through with his saber.

As Amon falls to his knees still clutching his staff, Maul bends down, holding the staff as well, and smiles at Amon. He then rips the staff out of Amon's hands and turns to show his the Jedi Masters Students his new trophy as Amon's lifeless body falls to the ground.

After Maul take takes out the dead Masters followers, He returns to his own Master... After showing him the staff, Sidious tells him to keep it as a reminder of his triumph. Sidious then tells him about a plan he has to take control of the Senate and the galaxy.



Also Note that I have never read any of the books So I have no idea how off my Sidious History is

I did steel the bit about the staff belonging to a Jedi Master and Amon Toth is not the most original of names

I think he looks amazing in photos!!! I just can't justify buying him. I was not a huge GG fan from the film so I can't really see owning this piece, as fantastic as it is.

If I had more money and more room though, I would snatch him up for sure.
