Emperor Premium Format

Personally, I expected more accuracy with the throne, but it is a nice piece.

Same here. It was the main reason I passed on that.

Thanks guys, appreciate the comments.

Said it before, I'll say it again (as someone who was NEVER going to purchase this in the first place) it's an awesome, striking piece.

The proto looked like balls so I had ZERO interest. Then when it shipped and I saw photo's...I was sold. BUT, those photos don't even begin so explain how commanding this piece is in real life.

I second that. I had no interest when I saw the proto but after it shipped I decided to get it and indeed it's an awesome piece. It's has a great presence on my shelf. It looks so much better in person than in pictures as well.

This one's waiting for me at home as we speak. Can't wait to see this thing

A question - There are little fabric sleeves o the neck and wrists - Supposed to be removed before attaching head and hands?
Also, are your heads attach easily? Does the neck peg go in easy, or you struggle with it?

Please, can anyone answer this?

I didn't have sleeves on the wrists only on the neck. I left it on there it didin't seem to effect how the head sat on the neck pin and I figure it is just to stop scratching the neck hole and pin.

Please, can anyone answer this?

Got this yesterday and it's impressive, quite impressive. I had the 1/6 and sold it last year. IMO this blows it out of the water. I do however have my pros and cons about it (what I like and don't like):

Pros: Likeness and paint are great. Poseable arms, thorso and head are awesome. Wired hood and robe make for better positioning of the clothes. Although there were complaints about the throne, it's quite impressive in person.

Cons: The hood is on the small side, but with futzing, it's not too bad. The light IMO is not very noticeable. Could of been a bit better, but it's a minor complaint. The battery compartment placement was a bit of a pain for me with my big hands, but shouldn't be a problem for most people.

All that being said, this is an awesome looking PF and one of my favourites in my collection.

^ yup the battery compartment's the deal breaker for me. you might want to do the hood mod to improve it a bit

I didn't remove anything to put on the hands and head, and everything goes on easily.

Must of missed the hood mod. Battery compartment was a pain, but it wouldn't be a deal breaker for me. I'll probably never put on the lights anyways.

I agree with both , i have the 1/6 , the throne is not accurate , but is fine considering the price .

 

[Gates70]

Got mine setup and he's pretty cool ! Didn't do a hood mod though.

nice pics. doing some OC futzing will definitely level up this bad*ss

 

[blue_rogue]

I need to sell some stuff soon and get one of these...

 

[chRd]

oh that's what i had to do and i dont have any regrets.

Thanks...OC futzing ? What's OC ?

 

[ambasah]

very nice pics. This will become more of a priority for me once the royal guard is announced.

I should be getting my EX one next month. I did the flex pay on him since he is so expensive.

It's not a great comparison but Wolverine is 5' 3" and crouching while on a base and the Emperor is 5' 6", slouching, and sitting flat footed.

Sorry, could not resist

 

[Spiker]

That thing is soooo nice!
