New Jango and New Boba figs! Medicom

[iMan]

Oh yeah? I was looking into him. $130 ish. That sounds good but I'd need that code to work to afford it. I never used a code for SSC. If it doesn't work for me fan I back out of the deal?

Edit : I also have 485 reward points. I wonder if I could use those. I rarely buy from SSC. I don't even know what that would add up to be. $5?

When you are checking out at SSC, on the second screen I think where you pick your shipping address and stuff, you can either enter a code or use points, click the "Use your Reward Points" tab and then it will show you how much you have to put towards the figure. This is before you actually buy it so don't worry about accidentally purchasing it.

Yeah, I can get the Medi ESB fairly cheap but it's the scale that scares me away. Would it even look right on a bigger body?

Plus, I'd want the most afforadable body I could get otherwise there is no point in buying it.

I've heard of people changing him to different bodies, whether it be Truetype slim/muscular? or some other stock body, not sure. I wanna change both my Boba & Jango as they're deteriorating before my eyes

 

[TheFiend]

Deteriorating??

Deteriorating??

Yeah, it's just getting worse and worse. I've had him in a single pose for a while now and recently tried re-posing him and...his leg became loose. Now I'm not rough with these figures, even my Medicom Venom broke when I simply moved his arm. I'd just like to know what body would best suit a decent swap over, for my Fetts that is.

Yoshi - the custom thread explains all of that.

I think you'd do well to check it out..

These Medi Fetts are pretty incredible looking. The helmet on the ROTJ version is amazing. It's the first thing that catches your eye.

Did you ever get one, Vintij?

Use one of the new, updated Medicom bodies. They don't have the same breakable,deterioration problems the older ones have. And I think they still look the best in the Medi suit/armor. IMO the other body swaps throw the proportions off.

Has anyone ever use one of these bodies for Boba? It says it's a slim but I never seen one in hand.

I just bought this, gonna see what I can do. Anything's gonna be better than what I've got now, with the broken leg. Anyone know how difficult it is to strip Boba/Jango to bare bones? This is gonna be my first custom project.

That isn't a slim body. It is more like a narrow shoulder body. You should buy a ZCWO body. Same as the slim and way cheaper.

 

[TheFiend]

Those are nice ,cheap bodies but I think they're too big for Boba.

THe ZCWO? Not at all. They are the same as the slim body.

Medicom can be pretty sweet, IMO. I really dig this one.

This is the second 6th scale I ever bought.

Nice! My ESB Boba was my first ever 1/6! Still one of my favs, if my body swap on Jango goes well I'll also do the same with Boba too.

A body swap for Jango might not work the same for Boba. The build of the actors were completely different. Jango shorter & stockier, Boba Taller & Thinner. Chalk it up to a difference in space vitamins.
