Medicom Darth Maul

[PosterBoyKelly]

Word on the Mediworld site is that this guy will be a Feb 2008 release and will be $150.

1st qurter 08 for the standard Medi Star Wars price. I won't pay that, I'll just wait out the secondary market:maul

 

[EVILFACE]

Yeah, just like when you saw a similar RAH Boba Fett pic last year and you say it was no better than the HAsbro Fett.

Shut you up for a while

Lol, that was to get a rise out the Medicummers. And all 5 of you came screaming and crying and posting the same 10 pictures of figures

I would hope a $150 figure is better than a $50 SS or a $20 Hasblo

 

[IrishJedi]

Medicummers.

 

[IrishJedi]

Why would anyone want a RAH Chewbacca anyway? He's be so out of scale (even with other Medi figures) it wouldn't even be funny.

Unless of course they do the unthinkable and actually create a new RAH body for Chewie in true 1:6 scale (which would be about 14-15" tall).

 

[Scarlet]

Rise? So that's what you were trying to do. hahaha Whatever.

 

[PosterBoyKelly]

I think if Medicom does a Chewie it will be a VCD. They'll just make a really tall and well articulated vinyl version of him. And how many times do I gotta say it, Medicom is in scale! When you're the best, the rest just don't count

I mean, can't we all wait for mute points about "who's better" to come up? It's so fun slinging names and BS about the same 3 points over and over.

IF I felt/feel Medicom did a poor figure (which I think they have) I'm vocal about it. My big critisism here is charging $150 for a non-armored character, BUT I won't pay it. Doesn't mean the figure sucks to me. I'll just wait for someone to sell it to me for less.

Same with SS and HT, but SS just has more things I dislike. Just my opinion. HT, has really ALMOST nothing to dislike, but their likeness is off to me a lot, but generally due to rights. So no hate.

I'm no Medicummer (clever though), I'm just a toy whore all around.

 

[IrishJedi]

First off, I am not a Medicom hater. I own and/or have ordered ALL of their SW figures so far (except for Topher Luke, which is a disgrace). In fact, I probably own more actual Medicom RAH figures than many of the "Medicummers™" lol ) here do.

That said, they are NOT in scale. And I'm not even talking about being in scale with SSC and HT... the Medi figs aren't even in proper scale with themselves! The Vader figure does not tower over Luke nearly as much as he should and Luke is about the same height as the Stormtrooper. Just wrong. Medicom does a LOT of stuff right, but figure height and scale have NOT been among them (so far). Hopefully, they will improve in this area.

 

[Scarlet]

IJ, how many Medicom figs do you have?

Impressive IJ.
That's quite a score. 15 figures!!

At my peak(2 years) I had about 35-40 figures but I had trimmed them down I'm left about half tho.
Saving up for my wedding next yr.

 

[PosterBoyKelly]

Yeah yeah I know. I just don't care about ANY scale, I display each figure individually and they look good. That's all that matters. If it looks good, it's around other figures that look good, scale aside, I'm glad. That's what it's about to me: Great Looking Toys.

I know you're not a hater IJ.:chew
Nor am I blind to lesser qualities.

Well, that would do it (saving for Wedding)

Congrats, by the way... and best of luck to you and your future bride!

 

[Scarlet]

Cheers IJ.

 

[PosterBoyKelly]

Congrats indeed!:chew :chew :chew

 

[Scarlet]

Thanks bro. 6th Jan 08 is the date.

As far as the scale issue and price go I don't care. IMO the Medicom figures are worth it. I feel like I'm getting my monies worth. I've got a few now and as I said I'm quite happy with them.

Vader (ROTS)
BHST
Sandie
ROTS Clone (501st)
ROTS Clone (Cody)
Jango (PO)
Boba (PO)
Darth Maul (Gonna get it so I'm counting him )

 

[Scarlet]

Your 501st and Cody the ones I desire the most

 

[Khev]

Now that we have a smaller Maul figure on the way SS's upcoming Sidious hologram will be more in scale.

With Maul being the first Medicom version of a current SS 12 incher I'm very curious to see the results. The SS Maul is spectacular and will be hard to match, let alone beat (heck its even got a better likeness than the PF.)

 

[Khev]

Its kind of funny seeing those three displayed together, as if poor Wicket just realized he wandered into the wrong bar....

Your 501st and Cody the ones I desire the most

They're pretty sweet I admit.
