1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 262 - Star Wars Episode IV - 1/6th scale Chewbacca Collectible Figure

[DarthTrafford]

I ordered the 2 pack!
I can't wait for April!

Re: Hot Toys Chewbacca . . that is all

Chewy looks great. Han looks like one of Chewy's droppings.

I couldn't agree more. I HOPE they sell these separately so I don't have to pay $480 for a good Chewy and a crap Solo...

I don't think the two pack is a Sideshow exclusive, but a "Collectible Set", as with Rocket and Groot which also included extras.

Exclusively for the Collectible Set:

• Additional Accessories for Han Solo:
  - One (1) Stormtrooper belt
  - One (1) blaster rifle

...

Additional Accessory for Chewbacca:
- One (1) heavy blaster

However, as with Rocket and Groot, Sideshow may add something extra later to make their version the exclusive.

I want a HT figure of your avvy to go with these.

I concur!

Just when I thought I was done with Star Wars 1/6, there goes $500.

Not sure if the extra heavy blaster is worth getting the two pack for. I don't really want to throw down the NRD yet is the main thing.

The big issue is the exclusives for HT are now selling out quickly... NRDs are no fun and you really have to be sure, but Marty and some others have gone from PO to waitlist w/in a day.

I ordered separately for now. I don't like NRDs, and I think I want the Han Solo EX a little more than the set's one. I'm a little concerned about final QC on the walking carpet, but it's pretty spectacular nonetheless...

 

[pixletwin]

Seems strange these will ship BEFORE the Scout trooper.

 

[TheBigMachine]

Big Bad toy store may have it for the same price w/out the NRD but remember you get sideshow rewards which would be $24 back in rewards. Also the perks of getting it 1st way before other etailers and a no worries no hassle of fixing any problems with defects which after all hot toys seems to be getting much worse with their quality control.

Well, you got me to flip my order back to Sideshow. NRD paid! Plus, I'm hoping they add something extra to make it a 'Sideshow Exclusive' set, like they did with Rocket & Groot.

There'll be big savings if I can order the two-pack from the UK.

From Sideshow not only will it incur 20% tax, but probably about 4.5% duty as well!

So I hope that any potential Sideshow Ex won't be something I want.

We already know the exclusive:

Stormtrooper belt and blaster for Han and a big gun for Chewy.

That's included in the two-pack, which isn't listed as a Sideshow Exclusive, but should be available everywhere.

The only Sideshow Ex so far is the single Han.

I told you all this was coming . Just wait fellas... More OT goodness in the works from HT... I will hint more when it gets closer.

Interesting. But I'm not sure I can take any more excitement at the moment.

I ordered the Chewbacca. I already have the big heavy stormtrooper blaster a couple of them to go with him. also an extra stormtrooper regular blaster as well

 

[galactiboy]

Well, it's the single Han with the stormtrooper belt and blaster, I have a hard time imagining retailers would get that as part of the exclusive two-pack, I may be wrong, but that's not usually how it works. The only time I remember an exclusive being available everywhere was the long telescope with Jack Sparrow.

 

[Creighton]

Respectfully, after seeing this I realize that I will no longer be dropping money on Sideshow SW figures and that I will migrate to Hot Toys.

Im not a troll. Honestly, my funds are limited as it is as a teacher. I would rather save a bit longer and purchase a quality product like this.

Case and point: The Scout trooper- I was planning on purchasing it but now and I am rolling a few more bucks in to have a MAIN iconic character. The quality of HT just reduced the other guy to Hasbro level.

I will continue to collect SS premium format/Mythos.

Yay real fur Chewy!

I called and canceled before they charged anything I'll wait for an actual EX. Also am not really stoked about Han's sculpt so unless that changes its a no go. Also maybe he won't sell out that fast because of it, if I wanna pick him up later. Chewies will be around so no worries for now

The situation isn't too clear. Single Han is the only listing that has the orange 'Exclusive' tab on the page.

Yet the photo for Han and Chewie says 'For selected markets'.

With the Rocket and Groot two-pack there's exclusive bits, but the set itself wasn't exclusive to Sideshow.
