Sideshow put up 75 exclusive 12 inch Bib Fortuna's today and I broke down and ordered it. I didn't order it when it was first available in July and didn't have the desire to get him till my Creature Pack got here last Friday. I'm still on the fence about this thing and my decision. I'm just wondering if Jabba's Major Domo is worth it or if I and my future SS Jabba display could've lived without me spending another $60?
 
You made the right choice. You will be VERY happy. I love mine he will look great with Jabba and Jabba would just not look right without him.

You have chosen wisely.





Film accurate or not, you really need the staff. It adds so much to the figure. And if you plan on ever having Jabba, he's going to need a Major Domo. Plus, I have a feeling that the exclusive R2 will come with the waiter tray to hold the drinks that come with Bib and inclusive Jabba. Also, without Jabba you would be missing that frog-like snack food critter. All this plus a high quality figure means you shouldn't regret your purchase.
 
IMO, yes, you made the right choice in getting Bib. You got the creature pack and if you're getting Jabba you NEED Bib. He is a great figure.
 
If you consider owning own of the best Star Wars figures that Sideshow has released a mistake then you've made a terrible decision.
 
I almost ordered myself (I ordered the staff and ex. box through one guy and the reg. Bib through another) coz it seems like mine are never getting to me. But then good sense took hold. Patience is a virtue.

As for you, Bib is a no brainer. Great figure, great accesories, and a great character.

You did good. :duff
 
if you're getting Jabba and have the creature pack then Bib is a natural. There isn't another character other than Salacious Crumb that I relate to Jabba. Not to mention its a great looking figure with no real flaws. If you can afford it then you made the right choice.

and on a side note i think I'm the only person I've seen that has the exclusive that doesn't pose him with his staff

I love that friggin staff. One of the best exclusives we've ever gotten, IMO.

I always try to display the exclusive in some way, even if I don't have the figure using it, to justify the full price I paid.
 
my problem is I like film accurate, scene specific poses and Bib doesn't use it in the movie.

right now Bib and Luke are posed as they meet one another in the entrance to Jabba's palace
 
If you're getting the Jabba set up, then he's a must. I don't know if I would've ordered him on his own though.

I'm not getting the Jabba setup, but my simple love of the character demands it.:cool:
 
Yes, you made a wise choice. It's not like you had to debate whether or not to get a vasetcomy. :monkey4 The staff is totally worth it. It's sturdy, and it has the right amount of weight to it.
