1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars Episode VII: Captain Phasma

[jki&Cri]

Maybe she's just bow-legged?

Could be but in hand is worse than the picture...

 

[FullMetalHippie]

Phasma arrived. Some in hand pictures :

Under direct light you can see that over her eyes is painted black ; with some weathering but black.

In the rear part of the neck is clearly visible a big zipper.

In the rear part of the knees the undersuit is like this....
...and I think there is something wrong in the lower part of her legs. I think they go outwards more than they should. It almost look like they switch left/right. What do you guys think??

The bottom of her legs does look odd. My figure doesn't do that. They may have swapped the legs by mistake.

By the way, you can lower her knee armor by taking everything off and just pulling the body suit down. I just finished doing that and it looks much better now having her knees be where they should be.

Thanks for the advice ! I'll do that.
Do you think that it could be worth try and see if the lower legs are reversed? Could be an easy fix?

Here's a couple more pics on shelf. She really pops on display as my eye is drawn right to the big shiny Stormtrooper.

Really a cool looking figure and to those worried about the black strip over the eyes, yes it's weathering and the chrome does shine through. All the other troopers have a solid black strip so I'm actually surprised she doesn't.

That's a great looking set. You're right, Phasma just pops in amongst the others.

Disregard my last reply about her legs. Mine are like that as well but I just didn't notice it. I think it might help convey a more feminine silhouette depending on how you position the legs.

Yeah, I've thought so too. That legs are more feminine for sure ,but in mine the right one is a little too much....

Thanks for the review clipperking!

Wow, even with those imperfections it still looks amayzing IMHO. How's the cape though?

Hey how is the chrome against fingerprints

This ones an easy pass for me. I was really looking forward to seeing what the character would bring to the film, but for me she was probably the most disappointing part of it. I thought they should have made her far more menacing than they did, which could IMO been conveyed by having a much more "evil" voice. To me she just sounds like Mary Poppins talking through a drain pipe!

 

[DCFett]

I haven't been keeping up I guess.

Nice to meet you.

YIKES! Another lovely day in the SW thread! Don't miss a beat or off with your HEAD!

There's this photo where her leg looks bowed but not that much.

 

[MikeyTheKid]

On the other I found this one where the legs look fine.

 

[jki&Cri]

In this last picture is showed a proto with many many differences with the final product. (Hands,knees,helmet...)

The last picture is the costume used in the film I believe. In any case it's full size, not 1/6th.

It's from the D23 the Disney Fan Expo.

Ah ok. So she's NOT supposed to be bow legged...

 

[Deedzy]

Off topic but when I see how well the chrome armor turned out I can't help but wish they'd do an original series Cylon from galactica.

Here's one of Christie actually standing and it looks accurate to me.
