Jabba 12" Image Thread

[MaulFan]

Soon, my friend. We all will soon. Can you feel it? It's coming.

I can feel it, luckily I have a few things to get my by til he shows up. In a way I'm glad there aren't new images being posted cuz that'll only make it harder to wait.

The first images posted in this thread look pretty darned clear to me.

They're taken with flash, not enough angles, slightly fuzzy. I need to see more, dammit!!

Am I the only one who wonders what the bottom of this thing look like?!

Nope, I plan to check him out from every angle. I got hooked up with hi-res copies of the SSC prototype shots and I was blown away by the amount of texture and detail on his stomach and tail, and other than convention images, there haven't been many shots of his backside in good detail either so I'll be curious to check that out as well. I have to say, I think I'm actually anticipating Jabba more than anything else in this line that's been announced, Maul was high cuz I love the character, shock right, and Kenobi was big because I wanted that version in this scale and done well, but I've always loved Jabba, always wanted a great version of him, and here it is and I just can't wait. Normally if I get these at work, I might check them out a little but that's it, forget it, with Jabba, let my co-workers see me play, I've been waiting for my fat slug and I'm going to enjoy him every chance I get, I will not be putting him down anytime soon, which makes me glad he's hollow cuz that could get tough on the arms. And on top of checking him out, as has become a tradition with these figures for me, I am going home and throwing ROTJ into the DVD player and watching the real one as I check out my collectible and enjoy how well they captured him. I LOVE COLLECTING STAR WARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the reason I get bothered by some of the negativity that comes along, I understand people wanting to affect change, but it just seems like the spirit of passionate, boyhood enjoyment of collecting has been lost in a pursuit of unrealistic expectations because no matter what changes are made something will always fall short. I admit I find flaws in things too, but the bottom line, there's nothing more thrilling than scoring a saught after collectible and lighting up in your heart like a child on Christmas morning and taking great joy in the things you own. No one has ever seen my collection to it's fullest outside of my family and girlfriend, none of my friends have really seen it, I collect on my own in a private world and I get the greatest joy in the world out of, well my girlfriend and love for her is greater, but I think you all know what I mean. Most people say they are adults with an inner child, I say I'm a child with an inner adult, and the child side of me is having the time of his life with all of these collectibles.

MaulFan this is why I think I get along with you so well. You and I are a lot a like. We want things tweaked of course but in the big scheme of things we just want to enjoy our collecting that makes us feel like a kid again. When I do get worked up that's why people are getting to antsy over toys it just makes me like enough already. I just want to enjoy my collecting. It's a stress relief from the things in life that are far more important. I don't get all the hate and snottyness I read on boards sometimes here, RS, etc. People talking down to people, people slamming one company or product, etc. Just enjoy folks! That's my motto.

And now cuz I'm all Jabba pumped, I will break into a chant, imagine the Rocky films if you will:

Jabba! Jabba! Jabba! Jabba! Jabba! Jabba! Jabba! Jabba!

Please don't, it's too painful lol. Well, that outer child of mine is getting ready to throw a tantrum, he wants his toy and he's gonna scream til he gets it lol.

These pictures confirm my belief, he looks even better than the SSC production shots, WHY DO I HAVE TO BE RIGHT??? I feel that little Bib Fortuna knife twisting around in my collecting heart.

I agree, he does look better than the production shots. I would like to see some pictures of the throne soon, I bet it will stun us as well.
