Kotobukiya McQuarrie Luke vs Vader review

[JGouse0498]

The Bly is one of the best they've done.

I don't know. It's a toss-up between Bly and that Scout Trooper. The muddy paint deco and the base on the Scout are unbelievable!!!

I will say though...Bly has to be the biggest one in the whole series. That model is massive!

If anyone's interested in a different take on the same model, TFAW sent me one to review for them as well. You can check it out here:

Excellent review!! Cannot wait to assemble mine, hope it will fit inside my custom made cabinets. As for Kotobukiya Star Wars statues I like them a lot. I have all the OT Imperials (which is my focus) plus a few extras like Droids, Fett I, Leia and Yoda. They are quite sturdy and the details are amazing.

The Droids set, Snowtrooper, Scout and the 3 Sandtroopers (ignoring the odd dirt paint apps) are my favorites. Maybe McQuarrie set will be my favorite as well but need to assemble it first.

It would have been cool if Kotobukiya took lessons from Gentle Giant regarding multiple arms (from what I know they only did this with TIE Pilot and the BH Vader - and somehow with the Sandies). It would be cool to have a Snowtrooper in a different position for example. But for different positions there are 1/6 figures (I hope to see a SS or RAH Scout on Snowtrooper soon )

I'm always amazed how much low this piece sometimes sells for..I remember seeing it for sale at my LCS for 75$.Great statue and very dynamic pose.
