Hot toys Snowspeeder Pilot Luke Skywalker

[Hoody999]

Honestly, the 'Ford no like' bit wasn't meant to be racist but I totally see it now.

If I meant it to be racist I would have said 'Ford no rike'.

Let's be clear.

I was just laughing at it because I know Wor-Gar likes Indy, so I immediately had that little kid's voice in my head from when I was young.

Seems you have to laugh in private at things like that these days without being called out. I live in Germany and have an english accent in my German. People say I sound like some German folk singer. I just roll with it and say something back at them. It's all in good fun.

Anyway it's the world we live in now unfortunately. But if it means black people have better conditions, rights and opportunities then I can take being called out on things like this here. It's fine.

Anyway back to Snowspeeder Luke !

This is a must buy and might just be my definitive Luke figure. He looks fantastic. Only hope he has non gloved hands and a hairsculpt to give the Dagobah display option.

Only downside is we are looking at a 2 year wait at best to get him. Ughhhhh

Well unfortunately for our wallets Luke has quite a bit of definitive appearances each with their own significance and milestones.

Unlike a trooper for instance where their Tantive IV entrance remains in my mind the pure definitive representation of that masked helmeted character in the entire 9 film saga.

When it comes to Luke kiss your credit score goodbye lol

Except there's no correlation between overly sensitive people pointing out every perceived bit of racism online and actual quality of life improvements for minorities. At the end of the day though, people love to pat themselves on the back.

All I know is this:

One, I still love my Sideshow Snowpeeder Luke.

Two, I'm totally going to yoink one of those harpoon guns from Toy Anxiety when this thing gets released in three years.

More pics because there aren't any on this page. Proto or not, this is figure of the year for me!

Damn he looks good. Since the SSC looks amazing as well I need an excuse to double dip on this - fortunately I have an (double) excuse. Hope he?ll go up for preorder soon since I need two of them for my upcoming Snowspeeder.

 

[Bo Shrek]

Don’t get to excited folks. Good chance this is just for show and will never make to preorder.

 

[Tee-Kay]

With so few reveals, it better get a PO.

 

[Centrocal]

Along with the jacket, wish his gloves were thicker.

 

[Smudger9]

Just give me the PO!

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

I'm down for two of these.

And the $1k ESB 40th Anniversary three pack of this with Bespin Luke and Yoda in backpack with all the other landing and training accessories

 

[ZE_501]

Thanks, I appreciate that.

No worries!

What's funny is that this amounted to a misunderstanding - and others who weighed in (thinking that misunderstanding was the actual situation) actually got to me more than anything that went on between us. It's funny - I thought I knew the overall ethos here but I didn't. It's a lesson learned.

It's very easy to assume we all think the same way, when we're all focused on the same passion in the same place. It can be an eye-opener when you get beneath the surface and fundamental differences in approach and/or values come to light.

Come to think of it, that's the story of my last (failed) relationship.

And hey, we've moved on to racism now... so let's get that "after-school TV special" into high gear!

Yeah, I'm still looking for minimum safe distance on that one.

 

[Freakazoid!]

This looks great, but I might wait until they'll (hopefully) make a Dagobah Landing version.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, I'm still looking for minimum safe distance on that one.

I hear that in the Nostromo "Mother" voice...

*hopefully that's not offensive to women today*

Sorry about that. I should never have stepped in. Lesson learned also.

 

[ZE_501]

[...]I found it very admirable that ZE apologized point by point.

I'm just a standard-issue insensitive jerk. Ask any of my girlfriends.

Let them fight

You're on fire.

Man I wish I could justify that.

1/6 Batmobile is as far as I go. The 1/6 snowspeeder is a touch shorter but wider; if I didn't already have the Batmobile I'd consider it, but just can't do it.

Half of that being the TaliBane and ZE drama
[...]

YOU WANNA FIGHT? (There, we have drama now too.)

Im back. what did I miss?

Business as usual?

[...]someone - who you're in some kind of argument with (I think?) in the same thread [...]

See, I'd call that part 'banter' rather than an argument. (Can be hard to get across in text.)

That AI clearly had its agency denied by the Weyland-Yutani patriarchy.

Agreed

 

[Johnny Utah]

Jesus this thing is on 50 pages already!

Good luck with the wait on that version !

Yeah something tells me this is unlikely to happy any time soon unless this ends up being a DX/Deluxe package.
