Re: Hot Toys - TMS - The Mandalorian: Moff Gideon Collectible Figure

Grand Moff Tarkin - Director Krennic - Moff Gideon, potentially Grand Admiral Thrawn on the way. Hot Toys SW exclusively got all the cool protagonists (with the Sith).
 
Re: Hot Toys - TMS - The Mandalorian: Moff Gideon Collectible Figure

Likeness looks a bit off. Looks strange in some shots but better in others. Don't care much at all about the character though. Hasn't really done anything in the two seasons that makes me want a figure of him. Cool of Hot Toys to do more villains.
 
Re: Hot Toys - TMS - The Mandalorian: Moff Gideon Collectible Figure

I agree I'm still waiting for him to really do something... but his uniform is pretty cool. Not sure if he's an officer or a pilot in that mishmash... but I like it.


Should I wait for Deluxe Gideon with zombie Child...?
 
Re: Hot Toys - TMS - The Mandalorian: Moff Gideon Collectible Figure

RO clean stormtroopers coming but we all knew that. I like it and really like the dark saber but something looks off. Will not rush to order.
 
Hot Toys have achieved better likenesses but i'll be happy with this Gideon on the shelf.
 
Moff Gideon is up!

.... and I am not feeling that likeness.

Yeah, I don't know why but I'm not quite feeling it either. His eyes are a little dead. They've got two years and I'm sure it'll be a little different once released.

looks pretty great! Not going to get it but not bad for the first human likeness for the Mando series. The dark saber looks awesome. Lighting seems to be playing major tricks in the pics. Some it looks pretty spot on, and others not so much.

I just realized he doesn't come with a light up saber, not that I'd use it all the time, but the unique way the Darksaber is realized, it would've been good for the light up feature. For the swinging blade I would've preferred that crackling to go all throughout the blade.

Wouldn't worry about it there are articles out where Giancarlo talks about the prop guys getting alarmed because he got into the fighting and kept breaking Darksabers. So we know he's getting into it with Din D'jarin probably. Either this week or S3.

Not rushing to PO with these long wait times tho.

That about sums it up for me as well. There's just something not quite right.

edit : OK, here's a comparison I found, Too round face I think is the main issue. Needs to be a bit longer. But way better than the other offering.....

The gun holster looks a bit strange. Not Hot Toys fault, but I assume the real costume looks like that.

It's like they jammed the gun with site in a holster that was too small.

But it's only a small nitpick.

His pistol definitely isn't as cool or extravagant as Krennics

Yeah it feels to me like either the face isn't gaunt enough, or the features are way too pronounced. Not exactly sure what the problem is, all I know is that custom Gus Fring sculpt from a few weeks back completely blows it out of the water.

I could still probably live with it, since the overall look of the figure still works well, but I really hope they'll make some tweaks before release.
