TonTon you never replied to my last post in the Jyn Imperial Disguise thread. :thwak :tap

;)

Ah crap, I've been having less time to get on the board. This was about the photo with the flash? To me that's a photo that's hard to judge due to so much of the sculpt being washed out. I think it's one of those cases where your brain helps fill in some of the blanks so that might be why the likeness is improved in a photo like that. It's not a bad sculpt, and it maybe works a bit better to me for her disguise look, but in normal lighting it's just a drop-off in likeness when comparing the two.

I cancelled deluxe Jyn but am now considering getting K-2 as a standalone figure for my desk at work due to the overwhelmingly positive response with that figure. Love the the articulated fingers and have always wanted to check out a robot engineered by HT given their Iron Man history.

Yeah right now I just have Imperial Jyn on flex but am strongly leaning toward picking up that K-2 as well.
 
I got this one in today. Too busy with post-Hurricane Irma work so will try to check it out over the weekend. (Received 3 other figures in a week...)
 
Not even Hurricane Irma can stop a collector. Save the dolls!

"Save the collection, save the dream!" :panic:

I left the vader-esque jacket on, but removed the muscle suit first. This base body is not the thin one, which I think would have been fine. Using the Sideshow rogue one gloves looks great, imo. And they peg in with no issues, and don't fall out.
 
Coco's stands make the presentation really classy. I really like the base under the new HT Yoda's, makes the whole thing look much more on the end of the collectible spectrum, never thought a little platform could look so good, but sometimes the stands do make the difference.
 
Oh well, i just bought the imperial R2. With free global shipping and a coupon it was a nobrainer after i saw this.
 
Thank you guys! I would never have made this had a repeat customer on FB not requested it. In fact these are what he had me make...
