Just Ordered Boba Fett!!!

[Darth Loki]

Well, I'm sure online retailers will have the non-exclusive for a lot less than $325. If I can save $50-75 by forgoing the silly artifact I would do that in a heartbeat.

Adam has it for about that now.

Looks fine in the 360 turnaround. I don't think the pose needs any fixing.

Yes, Original Josh. I agree after looking at the QT 360. It looks fantastic! I love the ball jointed neck!

 

[hairlesswookiee]

yeah im gonna cancel the exclusive and get the regular from my dealer. he's got me down for one. looks like someone will be getting their order converted soon after they close the ordering.

Exactly right, Josh. People need to try putting a 75+ pound jet pack on their back, and see just how straight they stand .

It looks just right to me. Nothing at all awkward about the pose. And the ball-joint helmet is very cool.

Who is Adam and how much is he selling it for?

 

[TheWitchKing]

I just placed an order with Adam. His inventory count shows 3 left for preorder.

The edition size will determine how many people choose to keep the exclusive. I hope they take into account massive cancellations when coming up with the number. This has been one of the most anti-climatic exclusives yet.

 

[shaithis77]

As for the 'lean back' - I think it's to do with the weight of the jet pack... on the original actor. If you have something heavey on your back, you will have a strange body pose.

Correct!!!

 

[MisterToyNYC]

Hi. I'm not happy. Is this where I would come to complain?

It's no big surprise, but Fett is #1 on the top 10 list.

With everyone saying how much they hate the exclusive, it'll be interesting to see what the ES ends up being.

 

[paulcarson]

sorry guys, as great as the character is, I won't be buying this one. I think the helmet shape is off a bit. The rest of it looks okay. The main thing is that all of the people who have waited for it seem to be happy enough and in my eyes thats the main thing.

Well done sideshow!

 

[JohnnyFavourite]

Got my order in and can't wait to get him in my hands!

 

[Gruson]

Such a great piece, yet such a lame exclusive.

Besides Han in carbonite, what else do you think they could have done?

Maybe a larger skiff base would have been cool and a light up feature for the exclusive (even though few parts light up).

 

[JustinLuck]

I would have preferred the pose he has while standing next to Vader in the carbonite chamber. He isn't leaning for his jet pack... Infact, when he walks, he appears to have good posture.

I think the little lights in his chest armor would be more trouble that they're worth and jack the price up higher than would be worth it.

I think that a better exclusive would have been an alternate base, more elaborately sculpted. I like your idea of a fancier skiff base. Real metal with some nice weathering paint effects. The exclusive Han had an alternate base, and I had hoped that they would make future exclusives with fancier bases. This would have been a perfect opportunity, since there were no other obvious accessories.

I guess that doing an ESB Fett or including a Han in carbonite would be too much work and cause too much of a price increase over the regular version. They seem to want exclusives that are a nice bonus, but not mandatory. Both of these options would be manadatory for a lot of collectors, so it's good that they didn't go that route. However, I think that an alternate base would have been a great solution.


Just had another idea--they could have made a 1/4 scale Salacious Crumb to sit on the base next to him, and with Fett's adjustable head, he could be looking down at him in disgust, ready to blast him.
