Hot Toys - DX16 / DX17 - The Phantom Menace - Darth Maul and Sith Speeder

If that's like that in real life, I can accept that, at least it justifies the figure.

They are designed so that if you fall off at speed, there’s a limit to how far your ankle can move, so you aren’t damaged.

How did Ray Park manage to fight in those boots? Maybe he wore something softer in those scenes where his feet are not shown.

Speeder could be sold for a third of the price or more...

True, but I would want to keep the Speeder, though.

This seems more likely to me.

I'm in the same boat, I want this but am hedging a lot.

Exactly, but even if it does stay around and eventually goes on sale, there's the "Veruca Salt Syndrome" to deal with... "I want it now!"

They are "limit one per customer", I doubt he hangs around long after release.

I'm in the same position...

I don't really feel the need to have the Speeder, but the regret down the line would bother me when they announce a 1/6 Speeder Bike or Luke's Landspeeder and I think how awesome they would all look together. An extra $123 really isn't a bad price. Even though I doubt I would ever have him riding it and it would just sit in the background..

With me it is an all or nothing jump. Even if the Speeder stays in the background, I like it and would have it on display. I love the 1/6 vehicles that HT releases.

Maybe I missed this...
But does he come with the “sliced in half” Duel saber so you can recreate the end of the fight where he’s fighting ObiWan?

No picture was shown, but the description says the lightsaber (non LED) splits in half. So can be displayed as his double lightsaber or a single lightsaber.

Got these on FB









all the doubts with tattoos, pleats, expression, etc, etc..this is still going to be a Maul to own

Only problem is release date. It is just to far away.

 

[guyver1]

You never know, might release early..HT has been doing this a lot lately

Thinking about ordering this guy from Timewalker, are they usually good with replacement parts? I've had less than ideal experiences from BBTS and Sideshow shipping is too high for my tastes.

 

[rayeknor]

Are Hot Toys parts hard to get as they are made in China and Sideshow is only distributing stuff? Doesnt make sense they got lots of spare Hot Toys painted heads lying around in a spare parts box.

Timewalker is a solid company, very competitive prices and frankly the best customer service in the business.

Had a Mark 47 before that needed a replacement shoulder piece. BBTS wouldn't do it without replacing the entire figure for some reason. Not sure if anyone else has had different experiences though.

Nope..you can get a lot parts cheap on many sites..problem is they run fast so you got to jump on it fast

That video is helpful. (Leia looks a LOT better)
The single figure PO is sold out at BBTS

That open mouthed sculpt looks awful there...at least there's a couple of those fly swat sabers to keep the flies out

He tasted lemon juice.

What?

The detail looks great

 

[RebelSpy007]

Has a Hot Toys DX ever wait-listed/sold out before it's been released?

 

[sithocan]

It is mentioned that DX16 is currently sold out at BBTS.
