NEXT SW 12" IS KIT FISTO!!!!

[Minimodel]

Sounds like a porn star!

 

[JustinLuck]

Closed mouth would definitely look better. I like the sculpt overall...

 

[Anakin]

,,i like this one..me will get it..

 

[BDboystoys]

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.

Oh no... I'm ashamed to have thought this, but when Isaw it I thought Hasbro. The sculpt itself i nice(besides the open mouth) but the clothing and lightsaber dont look good enough. Guess I'll waiting for another OT character...

 

[noelleon69]

I don't even know who Kit Fisto is, but I still want to get him!! Now, if they could just change his goofy mouth to the meditative look he has in the actual pic to the left of him, he would be perfect.

i too feel that his mouth being closed like the pic beside would be nicer. there's something funny about his mouth that spoils the look of the figure.

and the pic Buzzie posted, he's not even really grabbing the saber. not sure if that's a good grip when fighting

 

[Seretur]

I'm quite, quite happy with Kit. Not my favorite character ever, but a nice choice to widen the range, and a sculpt that really looks the part down to the tiniest detail.

Do hope that the exclusive will be a replacement head, though, just to satisfy all those who want a different expression.

Four out of four 12" Jedis for me so far! Heck, I'm pretty sure I'll get them all.

 

[Murderofcrows71]

not for me either, I'm actually almost jedied out, maybe I'd by a OT Ben Kenobi or a Qui Gon but these secondary characters, especially from the new trilogy don't interest me in the least.

 

[The Josh]

Still not feeling him as of right now. I'll probably order on just incase he grows on me but right now I'm just not 110% sold. THe body and robe looks really good but the head sculpt just looks odd compared to what we see in the screen caps.

 

[Darth Waller]

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....

SS employees sure have some great benefits!

 

[pickard]

I swore I wasn't going to buy every SS 12" Star Wars doll, and now I won't be a liar. (I was getting scared there, because I got the first three, even though I wasn't planning to get Anakin until I saw it.)

To my eye, there is something "Hasbro-y" about this preview pic. With the previous three, I felt I was getting my $60 just out of the outfit, regardless of the quality of the facial likeness. Granted, we haven't seen all the pics, but I don't get that sense from this one.

And I agree with those who would have preferred a different expression.

This is just my opinion; it's just a feeling I'm getting from one picture. I'm happy for all of you who are excited for this release.

These releases sure are coming close together. It's actually nice to get a bit of a breather by passing on this one. If this had been one of the characters I'm waiting for, that'd have been another hit on my toy funds.

FYI: The figures I'm planning to pick up:

• Qui-Gon
• Mace Windu
• Ben Kenobi
• Han
• Leia
• Padme
• Maul
• Vader
• Fett (either)
• Troopers (Clones, commanders, drivers, OT, PT, etc. My wife is going to kill me.)

And probably Luke in X-Wing gear if I'm feeling weak-willed.

 

[EVILFACE]

I'll prolly end up getting him. If I don't like him, I'll swap out his head and hands and make up a custom Jedi

I wonder if his tentacles will be flexible?

 

[chamildav]

I'll decide next week if I want him or not. I'm not sure right now. He didn't have much screen time in the movies and he died like a bitch, but he was really cool in Clone Wars. And I can't agree that the costume looks bad or the sculpt. It looks like SSC has done a wonderful job in picking materials that have the right texture and drape for this line. The patterns and accessories look great as well. I have no complaints beyond the subject but I understand why they would like to work in some lesser characters between the major players. I think the Jedi costumes all look excellent so far. I'll probably stay a completist through next week and get Kit.
They need to get over the current Jedi fetish though and give us some Sith or military figures. And announce Han and Leia and old Ben. Soon.

 

[gil-galad]

I wonder if his tentacles will be flexible?

if you listen to the pod cast it says they are flexable

 

[Seretur]

You don't die like a "bitch" if the Dark Lord himself gets the jump on you. I can't believe that people would go as far as disliking him outright because of that one scene.

Anyway, I'm all for sticking with the Jedi for now. It's not like the Dark Side is severely underrepresented in the collectibles market, and I like it a lot that we're sticking with the heroes for now.

Oh, and Josh? Do call 1-800-SIDESHOW-MOLE for the instructions on how to fall 110% in love with Fisto, and all other upcoming preorders.

I'll let ya know what they say LOL.

 

[FlyAndFight]

It's cool that Sideshow is moving on to some secondary characters, which means that the line will be broad indeed. But... Kit Fisto appears as a lame-ass Jedi, to put it mildly, and I would have preferred several others before this one. Heck, even Lucas' son, as the Jedi trainee, fought better than squid-head here...

With that being said, I'll probably pre-order him as well but he may become trade-bait for a future figure if I don't like him when he arrives.

Now enough with the Jedis and bring us Han and Chewie!!!

 

[Seretur]

Josh, actually, you don't have to. It'll be a Jedi Mind Trick anyway, and I love this entire line already.

But you know what would be fun? An Exclusive with a lower ES than the previously released ones. Something like 750 pieces or something. It would instantly attract a lot of people...

 

[Booyah!]

Kit Fisto- YES!!!!

One of my top wanted figures. This confirms the willingness to give us obscure characters.

Sideshow rocks!

 

[Seaward]

Just got to see the pics, and while I am disappointed that he doesn't have the goofy grin from AOTC, I think he looks pretty cool! The head sculpt and paint detail look awesome, but maybe Kit has to be a mouth breather when he isn't underwater

Maybe the exclusive could be a force bubble from the clone wars toon, since the cloaks seem to be standard issue for Jedi.

I just hope it isn't like some people suggested and just a piece of battle droid debris!

 

[The Josh]

Josh, actually, you don't have to. It'll be a Jedi Mind Trick anyway, and I love this entire line already.

That's probably true. I'll most likely order one but will have to think about it as time passes. This may be one that the details make up for what I think it falls short on with likeness and color.
