What did he say?

 

[OSCORP]

Looks like something has been messed with look at the saber.

 

[Rzeznikk]

It kind of does look like it might light up? That would be an interesting development and might explain the delay

Thats what Im hoping for anyway. But its not a huge deal since I already have a custom lit one, but it would be nice.

 

[Rorywan]

NNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mr.Tanker]

Those are terrible pics, but the lighting and camera angles are really bad too.

Definitely a step down from the prototype, but I am not ready to write him off just due to an initial batch of lousy photos.

 

[Platty]

um, what's wrong with it?

 

[francsicoliger]

WTF.............", Too bad CANCELLED!

 

[galactiboy]

And the dance begins...

Looks like some weird rubber animatronic sex doll. So they replaced Indy's guy liner with Luke's red liner. The HT fanbiys will arrive shortly to say "it's just the pics, wait for better pics, those pics are **** etc etc".

It's Indy all over again, and that sculpt looks as soft as hit, as I feared it would. I'm actually quite sad about this one boys. A grail for me.

Seriously?

 

[Mr.Tanker]

Those are more an example of terrible photography than a terrible figure.

My pre-order still stands.

 

[Rzeznikk]

Speak with your wallet then. Cancel.

Id wait for OMG's photoshoot before jumping off the hinges.

Or better yet, wait for having it in hand and then judge, instead of griping about a batch of lousy pics.

Wow not liking that picture, looks nothing like hamill, like others im not writing it off yet, im still picking this up as its an awesome set, and a great character.

 

[SwedishHeat]

Hmmm, well I can't return it because I used $60 worth of Rewards Points on it, so I will probably just keep the bodies and part it out to get my money back.

As much I'd like to speak with my wallet and return it to show my dissatisfaction. It doesn't make financial sense to do so. Curse you, Rewards Points!!!!

How? Pre-ordered, reward points used etc etc.

And there is nothing wrong with those pics, they are clear and reasonably un distorted. Sure they are not playing to the strengths of the sculpt but
they shouldn't have to try and find a good angle. It's crap IMO.

Why wait for OMG's pics? They don't offer a true representation of a set. He is very talented and works very hard to MAKE
the figures look good. Remember his shots of Indy? He said so himself.
Not happy rory.

 

[galactiboy]

Not the first time we've seen bad pics of a production figure... I won't panic until I see some taken under more controlled conditions.

But even with that... there does appear to be more softness to these sculpts than I expect from HT.

Huh, and here all this time I thought it was PIXELtwin.

Well, I did try to warn everyone...

 

[Mr.Tanker]

While I am disappointed, I am not panicking, yet.

 

[Rzeznikk]

Chalk it up at a loss then?

If you really dont like it, cancel. But Im sure youll keep it.
