Statue Obi-Wan Kenobi Mythos Statue

[Black Label Society]

Sadly no. At least not on mine now that I broke it. Someone else may be able to twist it out.

Looks way better broken off. That lean is just too pronounced, but not a big deal like selling a Jedi sans his saber. Lol, good thing we don't ever have to worry about that.

I cancelled this because I did not want a saber in old Alec Ben's hand...I wanted him wandering the desert carrying everything including that now missing saber...SS Fuucd up big time IMHO...unacceptable for me for the exact look I wanted

It really is a beautiful piece though. I never noticed Obiwan's Clone Wars armor on his back pack until now though... Poignant.

I like the lean. It looks like he's resisting against the wind.

Well that is good that you are happy with it. I hope everyone else who gets it likes that also. I thought about the resiting the wind thing also but I like the original much better.

Sorry that for many of you that this is not turning out to be the piece you were all expecting. It's a shame as this looked be be one of SS great SW products. Don't get me wrong. It still is pretty nice but the missing Saber and the lean I imagine will drive many of you crazy.

Congrats Freeman and thanks for the photos!!

That saber BELONGS on that belt completing the statue...unacceptable BS from Sideshow

I would just like to know WHY they did this. What is the logic? What was accomplished?

Also, why add that lean? Corporations can find a way to ruin anything. Always tinkering. Guess what sideshow.....

You Blew It!


I have some ideas. Why not ship the executioner with a rifle, and ship boba fett witout his helmet on, and lets dress vader in a pink god damn dress and give him a feather duster instead of a light saber you asses.

I would do anything to have a talk with the moron who thought this was a good idea. You bone headed buffoon. Some stuffed shirt desk jockey who knows nothing about collectors or what we want made this cost cutting decision so he could get a better bonus.

I'm spitting fire over this......

 

[slynger]

so can the lean be fixed by the owner or is the risk in damaging the statue too prevalent?

There is no logic...This was one of the best and perfect Star Wars statues ever made IMHO...the perfect piece defaced now...I cant pose him the way I originally wanted to

Man, that's a real kick in the teeth about the lightsaber hilt.

Maybe they'll come around in a few days, but this just doesn't seem right at all.

Fantastic pics Fremen. Thanks for posting them so fast. I am still ticked about the missing hilt and the change in lean from proto to production is odd but overall this piece looks stunning and is just full of detail.

 

[Adolfo]

I like the pics and the piece...However it does look like he's wandering the desert looking for his lightsaber that he dropped in the sand back in China...This piece was so perfect until this issue...I have never been so annoyed with a SS piece as much as this one....

I don't disagree, but your post made me chuckle.

Totally agree 100%...totally

Here is a link to the guy who prolly made the decision:

This is how I would display it. Saber in hand with no blade in it. Just ready for use. That takes care of missing on the belt and the goofy blue plastic look.

Agreed one hundred percent, and I was gonna mention the same thing. If only I had a pair big enough to break my sabre...

 

[Fremen]

Just wait you guys until someone posts pics with a better camera. This statue is outstanding.

 

[Fremen]

Eh, I glue that sabre back on. No one will ever know...except all of you...

 

[furystorm]

You're funny Fremen...

Thanks so much for the pics. I'm gonna rush home now, and pretend it's Christmas morning, 1978...

Or 1979, or 1980, or ...

I doubt I will have the nerve to break mine either but it does look good.
