Hot Toys Death Star Gunner

[D.R.37]

Just went over to BBTS and theirs is listed to release 1st quarter 2018?

When is Sideshow charging for this? I have mine ordered at another retailer and want to gauge how long it'll be before they get theirs.

 

[D.R.37]

I didn't PO this guy but SS is charging for my K2 on the 30th. I believe they're both releasing simultaneously.

Got mine from SS weeks ago

 

[TonTon]

tomorrow for me.

 

[D.R.37]

Well I guess I'm wrong then

 

[BurningRage]

Mine shipped.

Received my DSGs, one yesterday, one today (also received K-2S0 today and none of the packages had codes this time around). I've always been a huge fan of the DSG and overall, this figure is great but I'm not a fan of the puffy pants - can't figure out if it's the material (I thought it would be heavy material like the TIE pilot but it's almost like parachute pant material) or body used but the hips look way to big to me. I have one with jacket on, one with jacket off. The jacket and accessories came off pretty easy and as always, if careful about it, little to no risk damaging the goods. Here's the pics...

EDIT: again, not sure why my photos keep coming out sideways, they are not taken this way, nor are they stored this way in my computer...my apologies. If anyone knows how to fix it, I'd appreciate the tip!

So which do you like more with pleather suit on or off?

I've hear that if you edit your images even a bit they might not be rotated when posted

Wow spectacular pics, guys. That helmet looks so killer, and love seeing the two figs together.

Interesting about the parachute material for the pants. I wonder if the Death Star Trooper will be the same.

 

[Deedzy]

I prefer him with the pleather suit on. Gives it a bit of visual flair.

Me too.

 

[attom44]

Pleather on looks great IMO..

 

[Hoody999]

Are we still talking about 1/6 figures here......

 

[JCFETT]

I prefer pleather off actually now that I see them side by side.
Vader should be the only leather "high class" look. With the regular reserve flightsuits they blend perfectly with the Tie Pilots and Imperialy Navy Troopers and feel right in line as additional troops.

He's got girly arms without it.

Reads like the words of a converted buyer.....?

Honestly, I would have already pulled the trigger but HAD to jump on some TA stuff (that is getting super competitive and stressful.) Money...

 

[Dr. Nash]

JK, thanks so much for fixing the photos...WTF, I still can't figure why they are coming out sideways!

If I absolutely had to choose, I choose with pleather but that's why I got two, so I wouldn't have to

Great pics - can you post some pics with them alongside other figs?
