Ilum Padme?

[figuremasterles]

I just now logged in and saw all this...man, I sure want one of these! And for one, I think Trevor's sculpt is DEAD ON! Perfect! You did it again bud! Terrific likeness!

Great figure. Hope I can snag one.

...There will be other Padme's to come and I think I'm going to wait for those.

Lets just hope that Trevor will be doing those as well.

Wow. Those pics make her head look gigantic. Fantastic head sculpt but the rest looks very meh. The deciding factor for me anyways is that she dosent have hair. No Hair = No Sale

I agree. I think the sculpt is fantastic. I think it seems a bit weird because we never actually Portman in this outfit.

that pose is horrible. not feeling this piece....AWESOME sculpt though.

The more I think about this figure (the character, not the sculpt or outfit) the more I'm leaning on passing. I want a Padme (maybe even a few), but this is not a representation of her that I am excited about. There will be other Padme's to come and I think I'm going to wait for those.

Yeah, I'm starting to feel the same way. Although the write-up at RS said that there are going to be alterations to the figure (better hood, less shiny outfit, etc.)

But I definitely need to see more pics. I'll probably place the pre-order tomorrow, but if it doesn't improve, it'll be a cancellation.

I think these make the fig look great. It's hard to take an image that was only seen in the cartoon and transfer it into a real life replica (or as close as possible) but I think Trev's sculpt is great and the overall costume works.

Surprisingly, those are the pics that turned me OFF of the figure...

I do agree that part of it is the translation to real life.

I'm just glad to see pics that don't accentuate the camel...
It's not a Padme image (ie--hate the word but "iconic"...) that'd be her white ripped outfit from AOTC and that'd be a must.

Sounds like it will only get better 2 me.

Explain...

Or do you mean this "What you should keep in mind however is that it is a prototype. It's still being worked on. The finalized version will see the costume altered: the fabric will not be as shiny and the hood will be a bit more streamline."

 

[SportsAnchor]

Does anybody have any details on how the PPO will work tomorrow? I have seen nothing about it on the SSC website... is it another 10am PT scenario? Please post if anybody knows for sure.

I hope so. I was really looking forward to this figure, but I'm not too impressed with these first images.

Basically that yeah. They're working on it even more 2 make it better. I don't think it's that off now but if they're making some changes I'm going to assume it will only be better.

I agree... Do you know if there'll be an Exc pre-order first tomorrow or is there just the one Padme? If there's just the one then by the time I get off the golf course I should still be able to put my order in no problem.

I would assume there will be an exclusive PO item.

KHAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...........

er..... sorry...

I guess it's off to the wait list for the Exc...

 

[Xander]

No doubt there will be an extra accessory. I'm hoping it's not the binoculars. For two reasons really. 1)I want another pair or two for my Clones, particularly Gree and 2)I really think she should come with the necklace. She had it in Clone Wars.

I could be wrong Neil. I haven't heard anything one way or another.

If you do hear please send me a PM--- I'm heading out for my tee time about an hour ahead of the usual pre-order slot...

If there is an Exclusive I might be able to convince my wife to order it for me-- (although she's also going to be here for the Fed-Ex delivery and that'll already put me in the doggie house as it's Street Clubber, Boussh, and Legacy Moore----$$$$$)
