Ilum Padme?

[BadMoon]

I think it looks better but more Angelina than Natalie. I am on the fence with this one. Oh who the hell am I kidding. I will buy it because I am a completionist, eliteist, and founding member of The GTC! Balead TAT! :chew

 

[The Josh]

Looks just like NP but the overall figure is ok at best IMO.

 

[tomandshell]

I cancelled this one a while back. It just doesn't fit anywhere in my collection right now.

 

[minivader]

New pics.

wow. look worse than before. dont know how SSC pull that off.

 

[Captain Faramir]

Her lips are too puffy for me. She's kind of in mid-kiss . . . really weird.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I think she looks a lot better now without the white vinyl outfit.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Better but still an easy pass. Her face looks huge peaking out of that head mitten.

 

[Memnoch]

Thats the material that I figured they would go with after the feedback to the SDCC proto. Still not home run, and it won't be because its a bare bones nothing fancy design. Just too plain. Since its World Series time, Id say shes prolly a single, at MOST a double, but no home run.

 

[ProgMatinee]

When I get her I might add a skirt or something to cover the crotch. It won't be accurate but I think it will look a lot better.

I'm with you on the portrait, as I think Natalie is the most beautiful woman in hollywood, I'm quite familiar with her face and man does that scream Natalie to me.

As for the overall figure, I hope it's camera angles or something because the waist on this figure looks wayyyyy to thin with a huge ass and rack. I don't get it, I would think it's the same body as Asajj and Leia Boushh and Asajj's tight outfit doesn't make the hips look like that.

Me too. I can see the Jolie-lip critique... But Natalie isn't exactly lip less.

I like Natalie's lips, they do have a slight Jolie look to them, but I think they're better because they aren't as wide as Jolie's and I think Angelina's got a bit of Ronald McDonald thing going in the lip region, but I think her best asset is her eyes so I ignore the lips.

What's up with her forearms? Especially in that second photo.

Not one of Sideshow's best, that's for sure.

 

[screamingmetal]

The costume looks much improved, but it's that damn Art S. Buck female bod that's ruining it for me. I think I'll switch mine out with a Perfect Body and see if that improves the appearance any.

 

[Sachiel]

It looks a lot nicer with the changes.

 

[SolidLiquidFox]

I agree this is a downgrade and not an upgrade. The likeness went further away from what Natalie looks like.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I agree. The sculpt is nice but that body just kills the femininity that is expected in a female figure, particularly one representing the attractive Natalie Portman.

I would be really interested in seeing your customization with a new body, Screamingmetal. Looking forward to it.

Agreed, those forearms are way to gangly.:emperor

But I guess I wasn't really intending on buying this version anyways.

All hail the female counterpart to Yavin luke!!

 

[MaulFan]

It's not necessarily the body, though that doesn't help, but this looks like the tightest outter clothing I've ever seen on a figure in this scale, you can see the joint under ther breasts right through it, which is awkward looking. Since they're going with a creative interpretation on this piece, I think they should depart from skin tight clothing and opting for something slightly looser, or much thicker material or something. And one thing I notice with Asajj and and Padme, the torso's on the female bodies they have look way too long long, it doesn't quite seem human looking to be that long.

 

[Memnoch]

Well the outfit may look bad but I may try and pick up a second somewhere down the road to customize with the Episode I Handmaiden doll's clothes to make Handmaiden Padme.
