Premium Format Kylo Ren

[Phastroh]

I'm referring to shipping order. I've had to wait before when others who only recently order something I POed got theirs first.

Edition number is cool to have a low number and a personal preference. I don't particularly care but if given the choice I'd pick a low number.

it looks great... but the plastic blade looks just bad IMO .. why the ex is a must for me personally

Common it's not that bad but it's weird how it's see through in some areas but no blade takes up far less room.

Looking back at the original pix I can help but think the red circles around the base were translucent as if they were possibly scheduled to light up because in the video it seems more red or brighter red and more solid. Could jog st be the video but it's not the same darker color like the pix on the site to me.

So no light-up saber... pity

 

[Centurion]

Looking forward to those in hand pics.

Oh, well that's different and I agree, they should ship in the order that people buy them. It seems to be reversed at times.

Just watched the unboxing video and it looks nice enough. But for the price would it have killed them to include a driver head and/or melted vader helmet. For almost 600 bucks there isn't much in the box.

I am surprised that the melted Vader helmet wasn't included. When you think about their history of including some random helmet or head to lay on the display, this one seems like a no-brainer. I mean, the Snowtrooper has a protocol droid head, Aayla has a Clone Trooper head. This one would've actually made 100% sense. I'm still getting the statue and gonna love it, but the Vader helmet would have been icing!

Agreed that melted Vader helmet would be cool add-on to this statue.
I bought binoculars from MYC to go with my Sandtrooper and they are well built and look great. So, MYC - could you please do the Vader helmet as accesory to Kylo Ren statue?

Yes! That would be awesome.

I'm not sure the Vader helmet would add much to this statue given its setting, he didn't take it to the battlefield with him. A much better option that would have added a meaningful difference would have been the Adam Driver coh.

Yeah, but you know how Sideshow is with full human facesculpts. Not the greatest track record.

Maybe Sideshow just didn't want to go through the hassle and the possible negativity.

At the moment it's only the Disney/Star Wars tax and the lack of light up. Why add another issue.

 

[Phastroh]

I think what's sad is that they said to me on the phone and to the public they didn't think the way it lit up wasn't good enough or wasn't acceptable but yet the Jumgle Predators right hip armor is acceptable being on his quad lol or just fill in the blank with one of many other acceptable things from SS.

Maybe post pix and let buyers decide stoops.

29 pages of people complaining about their popsicles not lighting up. Just don't buy it if it's a dealbreaker.

Common really you can't just post that as if it's just that simple. All the light sabers light up and this was supposed to as well and then they cut it so I understand people complaining. I can understand your point but I'm not sure it's a fair assessment when the decided not to light it after they decided to light it so people are understandably upset and should be for the price but to say don't buy it then is not the same had it been stated it will not be lit on the day it went on sale.

When they show a promo video of it igniting it kind of says hey look at the light saber lighting up. I am personally annoyed but won't be cancelling it for that reason. They should of lit the base or even discounted it considering the current price was to include the light up feature that was cut and knowing people would be disappointed offering a discount is the right thing to do. After all they said the cut it out themselves so drop $50 off it.

It's been confirmed to not light up for months. If it's a deal breaker, don't buy it. If you are buying it anyways you're wasting your own time complaining about it.

I have a lot of Attakus with no light on saber. And all are fine. I have Vader Sideshow and i used only 5 times....

Agreed. I have nearly all of the Sideshow PFs and of the ones with light up features, about half of them have quit working over the years. It ends up actually de-valuing the piece if it breaks. I'd never display them lit other than to say "hey, hold on let me turn off all the lights and check this out..."... Which would be never.

No it actually increaseds the value with time if you have one in working order!

Ok I am complaining because they removed the feature and it's not a deal breaker for me personally as I do not use the feature unless for company for a few minutes. I still say it sucks they did not light it and many people have a right to complain when even at the time the said it won't light was far after people had already been waiting 7 months.

It's just crappy they don't discount the costs for everyone because clearly the price was to include a light up feature. If not they would of had to say uh yeah we need more money since it's gonna light up.

On another note I considered getting a motion sensor to my wall plug that powers all my stuff so when I get to my stairs top it all comes one minus the battery only ones. I already have all my one wall on a light switch as well for now.
