New Jango and New Boba figs! Medicom

[Natrix]

I have to ask, when you added that Future did you mask all around the edge of the visor then brush it on?.

Nope, just brushed it on with a small brush.

While the abdominal joint is really the only major difference in design, the joints are significantly tighter than the armor bodies. Which figures do you have on the 1.2 that are loose?

Actually, I don't collect the Joes, only Star Wars so Im pretty sure I don't own any Pro 1.2's. Mad Old Lu said that Fett was on the 1.1 and the Greedo I got on the 1.1 doesn't have very strong ankle joints. When posed in dynamic stances, the boots tend to swivel and cause him to topple over unless I use the stand.

I think all the other SWs figs either came on 1.0 Pro bodies or armored bodies...correct me if I'm wrong.

I know all of my SWs figs could use some tightening up on the ankle joints. While they've certainly gotten better since initial release, the ankle joints still seems to be the Achilles heel to the whole design...no pun intended.

Greedo is on the Pro. 1.0. unless you switched bodies
CW Anakin is on the Pro 1.1

Sorry...I was checking SSCs for both bodies and switched the names up. Natrix is right, that would be Anakin, not Greedo.

So I hope Boba has stiffer ankles than my Anakin has.

You must have him mixed up with someone else. CW Anakin couldn't have fallen due to loose ankles. His boots were one piece:

Good news is that all your loose experiences weren't with the body Fett will be on.

 

[Lee in MI]

Oh yeah, that's the one! The boots tend to flop from one side to the other when in dynamic poses...I suspect he would have faired well with the new "dynamic feet" SSCs is providing with the clones & Joes.

Well, according to SSCs Boba is on that same body. At least he comes with the action feet so maybe the ankles won't be an issue but I know my clones still don't fair as well as Medi or HTs even with the action feet.

Just in my experience, the SSCs stuff is harder to pose sans a stand than their competitors/partners.

Awesome pic. I hope SS's final product is as good.

Thought I would ask since people were talking about bodies. What is the difference between the Pro 1.1 and 1.2??

The 1.2 has a longer neck, broader shoulders & beefier upper & lower arms. Sideshow did a full breakdown on their website at https://www.sideshowtoy.com/?p=6838

Interesting, this thing was pre-sold out on most sites, I'm suprised they have not received them. Its been over 6 months?? Well if you do get yours soon, I would be interested in another...please keep me posted.
Cheers
