Medicom Darth Maul

[Sachiel]

I believe his few lines in X-Men were his own voice.

"Weren't you supposed to bring someone back with you?"

"Quit playing around."

"Let her go."

"Don't you people ever die."

Worst for him was Sleepy Hollow, you never see his face or hear his voice.

But he's a stunt artist.

How does anyone explain that?

Retail was always $150-$160, regardless of secondary market prices, and now Luke can be had for $75 (give or take) and Vader for (average) $120ish. They'll go down. Stormtrooper retailed at $150 too and now you can usually get one a t a deal for $100. It's jsut a matter of patience and not buying into the hype that they'll go up. In my experience, they'll go down, FOR SURE. Not all the time, not commonly, but they will show up and you just gotta be ready.

Even the "limited" ones aren't that limited. The 1000 Shadow Troopers or Sandtroopers are ONLY 1000 in the States. There's still more out there. I'm sure Boba and Jango will hold their value for a little longer than most, but even than I bet in a year or 2 you'll find one now and then at an awesome price. PATIENCE is all it takes along with the constant checking of sales threads and eBay.

I'm really glad to know that. I cancelled Boba and Jango because I just can't justify spending $150 a pop for a 1/6 scale figure but I really, really like the looks of those two. Best Boba and Jango collectibles period, as far as I'm concerned. Hopefully I can pick them both up for $100 each (or less) after the hype has settled.

Interesting development; Medicom Maul. I might be interested in this once some clearer photos show up. Hopefully though he would be closer to the $100 range since there's no armor on him. Yeah, I know Luke was still pricey, but like someone said previously they've gone down in price since then.

Anyway, it will be interesting to see what comes of this.

Those'll both be harder to grab for less than retail, but I'm sure after a few months they'll sneak in there. Probably won't be cheaper as much as the Stormtrooper is, but I'm sure if you're patient you can get them both for less than retail. I'm NOT that patient this time That's how I justify it. The best damn toy I've ever seen, highest quality and a character that is really popular.

I'm sure Maul will still be higher than $100, armor is NOT the issue. Lucas is. The license is.

Not that I would mind if Medicoms were cheaper....but I've been collecting Medis for years and the longevity of enjoyment the provide is worth the price to me. I like all of my Medicom figures just as much now (or even more) than the day I got them. If you can say that about Sideshow or any other company then...that's great....but I can't. I'm very happy that Sideshow has chosen to distribute Medicom in the US. It's a smart move on their part...and a welcome one.

Wow. The new images look impressive. I am tempted.

 

[Captain Faramir]

Why on earth are his robes leather? The sculpt is pretty sweet, but the costume is really weird. Not feeling it, though the figure itself looks nice. The materials are just not right.

 

[Seth Gecko]

I might need someone to preorder this for me. I will be on vacation when it goes up for preorder. Would anyone be willing to volunteer. At least its not a Sideshow exclusive on Fri but I still have to worry about that Thursday.

I think this one has a limit of 2 if its like the previous RAHs.

I don't remember his robes being leather either?

 

[JABBATHERIDGE]

Not sure I like that very limited number remark at the bottom of the preview, hopefully if I miss the PPO other retailers will have this.

It's not an exclusive like the Sandtrooper or anything is it, just a regular release, or else it will be hard to get hold of.

 

[MaulFan]

I don't think there's pleather in his robe, looking closely at that area on the SSC preview image, you see tiny dots like you would in cloth material, I just think it's a different style cloth that happens to capture the light differently and in doing so, compare to the other cloth, it's giving a pleather appearance, but the dots look to me to be similar to what you see on ROTS Obi-Wan's tunic.

Yeah, that could be but it still doesn't look good with that shine.
