At least the Stormie doesn't come with a cape.

Stormtrooper and 3PO look great.
Thanks for the pics.

 

[Puay]

Don't they have a picture of 3PO and R2 together to check scale accuracy?

All I see is the craptacular red X. I will wait till I get home from work.

Gosh I will burn an even bigger hole in my pocket now.

Served, I did this quick retouch based on the portion of R2 that appears in the 3PO's photo:

Thanks!! Relative scale between these two is better than Sideshow's.

All of them look great except Vader. Vader would look so much better if the helmet wasn't stylized and the cape was cloth. Also, it bugs me that Vader is wearing the ESB/ROTJ outfit but has the ANH widows peak on the helmet.

It's Kaiyodo's turn to feel the full weight of our nitpicking.

Thanks!! Relative scale between these two is better than Sideshow's.

I'm to serve , I found a real image of both:

 

[Puay]

Thank you Orbital-Frame! These guys are definitely more accurate in term of size comparison.

I'm thinking of getting the .... Stormtrooper

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Wow!! 3PO & R2 look great!

 

[CaptnRex]

^ They certainly do. I really like the unpainted look here, something 'arty' about it.

It will be very interesting to see how the size of these figures compare to the Black Series figures. At this early stage they look like they could be better than the quality of the black series.

 

[CaptnRex]

They look miles better than the black series, hardly comparable.

Specs:

Item Height: 6.7" (17.0 cm)
Articulation Points: 23
Joints Used: 22
(10mm joint x 5, 8mm joint x 4, 6mm double joint x3, 6m joint x 6, 4mm joint x 4)

[Set Contents]
-Main figure
-Lightsaber
-Lightsaber (off mode)
-Optional hand parts x4
-Stand base



At $65 it's about 3x the price as the black series, but I do think it looks kind of cool... I like the option of the clear rods to allow them to stand in extreme poses.. Before I invest in this collection I would like to see their take on human faces, I wonder how accurate they would be on say Luke or Han...

It's obvious to me that either they had the same sculptor or the same sculpt of their 1/6 vinyl kit used as the base of this figure...pretty snazzy...( aka the Horizon distributed kit for us 'Muricans)

Nice! Would love to get one.
