he wasn't at SDCC. clearly he's been stealth canceled.

Too true. But maybe, just maybe he’ll show up tomorrow or Friday, or next Thursday.

I still can’t believe he’s supposed to come so soon. What else OT is there after him and Vader?! I can’t think of any OT pre-orders I have besides the Emperor and Royal Guard.

I had to check, but you're right. No more OT stuff on the immediate horizon after Emperor, Vader, and the guards :horror

Need to get that DS trooper up for order pronto!
 
Aussie Distributor Ikon has a rough date of Jan 31st for these guys.
I hope it's NOT that long away!!!

That's probably just the original release date when they went up for preorder and haven't updated it, like how Popcultcha also still lists them as January 2019.
 
Since it looks like the release of ESB Vader may be imminent, I wonder if we won't see this for a few more weeks.
 
Curious to see the final skintone on this. In collectibles, Palps seems to vary between a kind of pinkish grey and a more whitish look. He's a bit like Bib Fortuna, who you sort of remember in the movie as being pale/white but he's actually more pinkish. The lighting was so harsh/high-contrast in both throne rooms in ROTJ that it made both look like silent movie stars.
 
I expect him to be quite pale with veiny hands, and if you put your ear to the sculpt you will hear a eternally looped chuckle

Howard said ESB Han and Lando are coming. I'm sure something will show up soon to fill the void.

Two throne rooms, huh?
Did the lighting look all high contrast & harsh when it was originally in theaters? Cause it definitely doesn't look that way on my DVD/Blu Ray copies at all. Actually went to see Jedi in theaters in '83..but definitely too young to remember if the scene looked like a silent film.

Jabba's and Palpy's.:lol
 
Only face sculpted. Rest of the head plain. I expect nothing more than that from HT.
