Heyyy mfoga, if my whole lawyer thing doesnt pan out I may just keep you in mind. Teaching was my first choice oddly enough and there are ways to get an alternative certification. I hear CA calling my name every time SS ships something and it takes a week to get to me.

Just remember they have to pay sales tax AND shipping. I recomend living in a state boadering California instead :D Well, Utah counts. It really only takes 2-3 days from Sideshow to get here. I'm usually one of the first after the one-dayers in Califorina.
 
Honestly, the tax wouldnt bother me. Id look at it as part of the deal with having "nice" weather all year round, and getting my stuff faster. That and all the other fun stuff in CA.
 
I'm just hoping that the SDCC attendee orders for Jabba and his throne are part of the first wave of the split shipment. If not, my impatience will get the best of me...

I hope so too. I've got more than enough stuff coming this month.

I'm ok with them being part of it, but I'd be a little sad if they were the only ones, I know you guys ordered first true, but that's almost making punishment to those of us who can't afford to go to these shows, if I could have I would have been there with a sleeping bag laying down in front of the booth to order Jabba so I would have been the very first order, but I couldn't go to the show so I had to settle for signing on the web soon as that was an option.

I think calling it a punishment is a little much. :lol

Punishment would be them sending you an email saying that they realized which order was yours and decided to stick it at the backend of the last shipment just because it's you.
 
If I got an email telling me that I don't think I'd be so mad but instead on the floor cracking up that they went through the trouble :rotfl
 
Well, while we wait for Jabba, I figured I'd share an glimpse at the work in progress I have going that'll feature the big guy when I'm all done and have him.

Sweet, Maulfan! If I had your photog skills, I'd send you proper pics of my Gammy and Leia to insert in there! Is that the Medi-Vader?
 
Maul, are you using Kenobi's saber for Lukes? How close in design ARE they? Im tempted to find another Luke saber and switch out blades so I can have a 1/6 representation of what his saber was going to be.

Yup Medi Vader. Your Gammy is phenominal, but I may be able to use my skills to do in the computer what you did in paint, and as for Leia, I may use the 3 3/4" version, as great as yours looks, I think less joints showing will be optium, probably same for Wicket and Lando, I really just want Jabba now though if that isn't clear from my other posts lol.

As for the saber question, it's the Jedi Luke saber with a blue blade photoshopped in to be consistent with the poster. I think originally they were thinking a blue saber, in some of the old trailers it had blue in it before the film was finished.
 
Ahhh Photoshop. Yea, Luke was going to have a blue saber but they were having issues with it showing up properly against a blue sky so they changed it to green. Thus the introduction of the green saber into Star Wars lore.
 
A few more changes added into it, maybe this will convince Sideshow they need to do a spectacular Slave Leia to save this work of mine :)

MaulFan, That is SO cool!!! I can;tr wait to see what you do with Jabba in there. Have you considered using this Leia though?

Memnoch21, Luke's hilt is similar in design to Obi Wan with very subtle differences and colors. Luke used Obi-Wan's hut on Tatooine to plan for Solo's resque and it's also where he constructed the new saber most likely from Obi's designs.

I thought about that one, but the first release had a more basic pose which fits the promo image better.

Every time I see a new post in this thread, I hope someone will FINALLY post clear pics of their Jabba in detail. Sigh.

Mikey I REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY wish that I had the ability to provide that, :(
