Looks so great A choking hand? Ok, I can live with not getting that, still gonna try for it. And once again, solid gloves, with no wrist articulation. why do i get the feeling that Hurricane Will be getting ALOT of orders for Vader hands? lol

 

[Wor-Gar]

OK, I'm not complaining, but where is the widow's peak?

That was my thought. We need articulated wrists like the Medi Maul. Makes for much better posing. Rest looks good but $125?? Ouch. Cant see why this is $35 more than clone wars Obiwan.

Im pretty sure its the wikid leather suit.

I think having a modded armor body, all the weathering, and the helmet, it's worth mor than Obi-Wan, Obi's pristine and new and pretty basic.

Any vertical banners anyone has found anywhere?

Front page of GalacticBinder.com

We also have the vertical stormie and Tusken Raider PF banners up on the front page. It's a Sideshow blowout....

Now use them you guys! (Actually, you guys should be using Darklord Dave's first! This is his dojo!)

 

[OSCORP]

Looks good (whether or not thats what we actually get is another story)

I like how they got the redish tint to the eyes. PERFECT.

 

[pixletwin]

At least we know we won't be getting the DOLL DOT with this one.

i agree, i was hoping it would have that as well and it does...i really like him so far and very excited about this one.

 

[OSCORP]

I've not been following the whole thread is this an assumed an 09' release or maybe xmas?

Unless they try to force glare...

Yeah the redish screams ANH glad they got that in there.

 

[EVILFACE]

Have to give it up to Sideshow and forgive them for the wait, he looks fantastic. I'm glad we got him now while SS in upping their game instead of early on with some of the subpar figures.

 

[abake]

This may sound strange, but he looks a bit... doll-like.
I know, I know, it's a damn doll, but this figure doesn't have that "hey, it's a little dude!" look to it.
You know, the kind of look you see on the better examples of Medi-figures, or some of the HT figures.
Still, it looks wonderful and I'm very happy. I guess it'll need some futzing to look just right.

 

[Brent72]

Those pics are VERY promising. Looks like he is going to be well worth the long wait. I'm sure we'll get a lot more pics from SDCC and I'm totally psyched to see them.

I have a feeling those were quick pictures as Sideshow was setting him up. I bet he'll look much better for the official display.

I've never seen a figure from anywhere which didn't look toyish when it is flooded with camera flash.

 

[OSCORP]

Yeah waaaaaay too much flash is turning me off a bit.

This looks a bit better IMO.

 

[galactiboy]

All I can say is this figure looks to be worth the wait... holy hell, that is a thing of beauty!!! Initially I thought the head looked a tad small, but here looks very proportinate

And glad to see they've already got an upscaled armored body:

. The body is an upscaling of the body used for the Clone Wars Obi-Wan.
