NEXT SW 12" IS KIT FISTO!!!!

[Darth Madden]

Looks like OT fans get classic characters in 1/4 scale. PT fans get the 12" figures. With one exception each.

I hope it doesn't stay that way for long.. I can't afford the 1/4.

Nope, not feeling this one at all.

I am a little surprised that there is so little love for Kit. I think it looks great, at least I should be able to grab one pretty easy from the sounds of it.

 

[Customikey]

I, for one, am relieved. My wife was nashing her teeth over me pre-ordering three characters in a month. Before Obi-Wan was announced, I was praying for a character I wouldn't want, to give my wallet (and my marriage) some peace.

SSC is proving the line has legs by releasing a "lesser" character. I'm excited by the prospect of getting such characters. This one's "no" for me, but that's just fine.

He looks GREAT by the way. Well done!!

You know how I said my favorite figure was Episode III Obi-Wan? Well, I just saw this Kit Fisto in person today, and I have changed my mind - this thing ROCKS - awesome head sculpt. There's *another* pre-order for me - me, who hardly ever orders anything!!! I love the alien look and the tentacles (or hair or whatever that stuff is) are very cool....

 

[denger4000]

Wow, I called it in the other thread. Surprised I was right though. In any case I'm happy.

 

[Customikey]

Reminds me a bit of Abe Sapien. Another fish-man that screams like a woman.

I'm looking forward to getting his murderer, but not him. Check out the novelization of ROTS! Sidious actually cuts his head off, and he's still smiling!

 

[Agent23]

Going up for pre-order next Friday (1-20)...wow, Sideshow is really pumping these out...

Obi isn't even sold out yet... that is fast for a new one.

LAME

what's next, lucas' fat daughter from AOTC or her ROTS costume?

kit fisto is a lame character that died like the sissy he is. he shouldn't of been made before 2010 at the earliest.

all the great characters they have to choose from, and they made a lame men-in black rip-off looking caracter?

if they're gonna make background characters, how about weequey? at least he LOOKS cool. or general veers? or one of the cool looking jedi, like plo koon or agen kolar? kit fisto is just lame. a lame lucas film design and a stupid looking character.

I am all for Kit Fisto!!!!!! I think he is just a great looking character. I really hope that his exclusive is an another head but with him having his trade mark smile!!

 

[Agent23]

Obi isn't even sold out yet... that is fast for a new one.

Yea, but the demand is there. I am just glad Sideshow is doing a good amount of these, it bodes well for the line. I hope the LOTR line is the same way.

 

[user 131]

Awesome sculpt. This Jedi will be mine.

 

[William Shatners Toupee]

I like cool aliens, screw their amount of screen time.
Anyone who thought the SW line would have all of the main characters made first before any lesser characters got made has obviously never followed how SS staggers out a line (like the Buffy line). $50 dollar dolls get marketed differently than $5.00 figures which come out in larger assortments and greater frequency.

Or to use a different analogy, it will be like collecting Marvel Legends... years to assemble a proper team culled from many different series. Feel the Pain. FEEEEEEEEEEEL IT!!!!!

 

[Customikey]

Oh. I can feel it.

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

Love the headsculpt. I'm glad to see some facial expression even if it isn't the grin. The costume looks great too. Hmmm, not ordering this one might be tougher than I thought.

 

[Darklord Dave]

This release really shows the how deep the line will go. I'd have preferred someone from one of the other 4 lines before yet another Jedi, but for a background Jedi, he's extremely cool. Has some great screen time in Clone Wars too.

I'm going to go check the reaction at rebelscum, I think that this guy will be really well recieved by the more diehard SW crowd.

And they seem to be releasing one every three weeks. At that rate we'll have 17 figures the first year!

 

[Azog]

I love it, Kit is one I have been demanding from GG in the maquette line, glad SS stepped up, who sculpted ?

 

[Agent0028]

I am surprised to see another one so soon. I can't complain because it's great...but...my wallet does need a break. I'm also wondering...are we gonna get a whole bunch right now and go long period of time later? Moneywise it doesn't matter since we pay when they are released not with the preorders. Very excited about Kit Fisto, he's one of my favorite background chatacters!

Is it the lighting or is his tunic really that orangish reddish color?

 

[The Josh]

I'm not sure on this one. Gonna have to think about it. Was hoping if it was a Jedi it would be Qui-Gon.
