So, I was looking around both the SSC site and this one and eBay, but I was not able to find a young Obi-Wan from Episode 1??

I mean, they made Qui-Gon and Darth Maul, so why no Obi-Wan??!!:monkey2 I think he was one of the coolest looking charactes too! Is anyone else wanting him too, or is it just me?

I would love him SSC!!:monkey5:monkey5 He would go so perfectly with the upcoming DOF Dio and having all three 12" figures together would be killer!
 
Wouldn't we all?

This has been asked a few times, so we can only think there's something in the pipeline...
 
I have one thanks to DarkArtist ( and the sculpter, forgot who that was ).:D Pic is a little far back here, but you get the idea. Bottom right.

I think he would have made a much more exciting figure for the SDCC Exclusive than Aayla Secura, only because he is a big missing link, especially since I just got the Anakin EX and am on the hunt for the rest of the Ep. 1, 2 & 3 EX figures!
 
Yeah, I'm sure he'll get made. But it may be a bit as the armored General Kenobi was recently announced.
 
Found a custom job / kitbash on eBay over here in the UK:

click meh

Although we do need an official SS Ep1 Obi so then I can get my Qui-Gon n Maul out of the cupboard!

No this is not my auction.
 
The sunohc sculpt is nice (see my sig) although it's not exactly a dead-on likeness, and seems a bit more more cartoony than than most Sideshow sculpts. I'd probably buy a SS young Obi-wan, but part of me wants them not to come out with one since I put the effort into making a custom.
 
I'm sure they'll get around to it, but ROTS close to it's release was a wise choice for the first, Old Ben important for the Anniversary year and CW Obi-Wan a good piece to tie to the release of the CW film as well as introduce Sideshow armor. TPM will come, I wouldn't be surprised if it's next, although AOTC is more favorable since an approved sculpt already exists.

Here's a taste of what we could be in for with a TMP Obi-Wan from Sideshow, the 1/9 scale diorama Obi-Wan.

Yeah, mine is one flex-pay, so he should be here shortly!!

And damn, I wish that the 12" would look like that!! That would be amazing!!

Well, in Trev, Tim or whoever sculpted the dio Obi-Wan's hands, I think we can expect a 1/6 TPM Sideshow Obi-Wan to pretty much match up to the dio sculpt.
