King Leonidas Premium Format Figure

Switch out weapons would be a great exclusive.

 

[johnnyMS]

they should pull a captain america and give him a second head and a second weapon for the ex

 

[customizerwannabe]

That would be ubercool.

Apparently this was a 1/4 scale resin model kit that SS has purchased the rights to. It came in two versions, one with the spear, the other with a sword.

Okay???
So I suppose that means interchangeable hands?

Not digging that at all based on that pic. Looks amateurish.

 

[Yippy]

That isn't the SS one, but the pose for the SS one is very similar, though.

If this shipped late (2nd quarter-ish) I might get it. The character is the purest warrior I've ever seen on film.

I'm pretty sure that is not SS's one because there are no Arrows in the Shield

 

[The Josh]

This will be mine.

The face and arm are also different. (His hand looks really odd.) But it does look like it could possibly even share some of the same parts with the Sideshow version.

 

[Kratos]

Lets hope SS's Artist's can fix these problems

Once SS purchases the rights to an item they can change it as they see fit. The cave troll LSB is a perfect example of this, as the original model kit was purchased by SS and they added the moria-themed base and nameplate.

Yeah, I'm a bit disappointed that they didn't use an action pose.... but it's still a cool PF. I'm just REALLY hoping that the Mohawk on the helmet is made of real bristles or something and NOT polystone or ceramic. THAT single feature will make this for me from the pics it looks like polystone. Does anyone know what it's made of?

IMO the understated pose is perfect! Very doubtful the bristles on the helm will be anything but polystone.

Nope. Not kidding. And metacritic and rottentomatoes seem to agree.

Since you brought up Star Wars as a 'true classic' and value Rotten Tomatoes reviews:
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/star_wars_episode_i_the_phantom_menace/
https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/star_wars_episode_ii_attack_of_the_clones/

And in case you weren't alive back in 1977, Star Wars original trilogy was bashed by critics.

Might not be your cup of tea (although by your posting history here at the SSF board the only thing you do enjoy is complaining and trolling.) but the film was very successful and entertaining. If you want people to respect your opinions, you should respect other peoples opinions as well, an apparently those willing to buy this statue are of the opinion the film and merchandise relating to it are worthwhile.

So anything new on this?

 

[Jen]

Wasn't planning on getting this...but now I just might have too. Having him, Aragorn and the Gladiator - I'm going to need a drool cloth permanently tied around my neck.

 

[Kratos]

Hopefully we get a good look at it this Week

 

[Kratos]

Maybe next week we will finally see Leonidas in all his glory???
