Action Figure Medicom - MAFEX Star Wars line coming

[Kunanuk]

I've given up pre-ordering Mafex. They're always delayed and availability never seems to be a problem.

Yeah man... that's also happening with SHF; almost the entire line is in stock or still avalaible for preorder on HLJ.

Vader looks better than the previous version but it seems the Bandai MK is still the best one.

Second best looks like it will be the new Black Series one.

The Rogue One Vader is up for pre-order on AmiAmi. Not sure if anyone mentioned it. Release date is August 2017. I'd rather wait for HLJ to list it though since they have no issue with cancelling an order. Not quit sure if I want it since it's much more than the original Mafex version I got for $29 when I pre-ordered it with AmiAmi. This converts to $48 US currently.

CD Japan has points for each order you place,(which can be used for future orders) and I believe special points for birthdays.

So, no loose joints this time?

Ordered the Rogue One Vader from HLJ. His helmet looks a little undersized but he still looks to be the best Vader in this scale yet.

Here's a few quick shots of the Mafex ROTJ Boba Fett. He's really nice looking. The legs for sure are a completely new sculpt, as well as parts of the arms. He's pretty sharp looking!

Scoobacca here, is first mate on a ship that might suit us. Thanks for the comparison pics!

He does look good, I had no idea they were doing one.

Just got the Mafex FOTK, I must say that this might be the most accurate 6 inch version of it. Too bad that they gave it the wrong F11D or else I would get another one.

You can remove the stock from the blaster to make it the standard version.

I agree great figure indeed. Far better than the SHF version....

Far better? Really? What is better than SHF one?

I don't have a pic but the SHF is smaller and (my personal taste) I don't like the way the shoulder armor is attached to the arms.

Now to each their own Kunanuk. I do have some SHF figs but the MAFEX version of the 1st order stormy I think is better.

I was just asking. I know SHF is shorter, all SHF are shorter than MAFEX, but that doesn't mean they are worse.
And about shoulder pads, well... I don't think there are any pads worse than the MAFEX ones.
That said, there is no reason to say MAFEX or SHF are "far better" one than the other.
I think this MAFEX looks more accurate and I like all the accessories, but the SHF one, man, it's a superb action figure. Do you have it? [emoji2]
