Obviously it's not Sideshow's 1:1 Yoda, but I figure this is a good place to display my custom repainted 1:1 ROTS Pepsi Yoda.
If anything, perhaps it gives something to compare Sideshow's sculpt to. Of course it's a little tough to compare PT to OT, as well as mixed media to resin statues.

To me it's the neck/lower face area that throws the Sideshow 1:1 Yoda sculpt off. The color isn't that flattering in real life as well unfortunately. Neither is the color on my GG 1:1 Yoda but I do like the sculpt better and the pose. It's got more action in it which I like.

The 1:1 Yoda is ok at some angles and just awful at others. It also needs the right lighting.
Something always rubbed me the wrong way about it. It's ok but could have been a lot more.
Oh well.
As for the other, it looks ok but I HATE prequel Yoda.

The bust is awesome, but I don't have to room for him anymore.

The price of this piece (along with the fact that it's not quite the ultimate representation of Yoda that some had been hoping for) kind of turned me off, so I didn't think I would be getting one. However, I was able to get a brand new one for $395 shipped, so after some thought I decided to pull the trigger.
My first impression was that he does seem a little off somehow. Both the color and the sculpt. But that said, he's very good. I don't think there has been a better representation of the ESB Yoda -- certainly nothing approaching this size. He does look better from certain angles it's true, but it's not like you turn your head a bit and you're looking at something unrecognizable. He's definitely Yoda no matter how you look at him. He just looks better from some angles than from others. I also discovered that he looks better if placed closer to the floor, rather than at eye level on a high shelf. Maybe it's a psychological thing because we expect Yoda to be short. I wasn't sure about the hair, but after a little futzing (especially around the ears) it looks very nice and realistic.
I plan to get some pictures of Dagobah and of Yoda and Luke together and put them in the background. Should make a nice display. I'm also going to keep an eye out for a stick that might serve as a gimer stick.

wow...congratz...i hope i'll get it too soon...cos i just have the big poster of yoda..
Congrats on the score. I agree, I can see room for where folks aren't happy with him, but maybe it's my lighting, i've never really seen anything but ESB Yoda on my desk, I almost hear him talking "for my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is." Enjoy him.

Wow! This is my Yoda guys! Solid Snake has been babysitting my stuff, and getting it sent there, so he can take pics and make his awesome movie showcases!
I just got into the Sideshow stuff! First, I got Darkness from the movie LEGEND, and now Yoda.
I was blown away by him! It's amazing. The inspiration and wisdom of old Yoda, sitting right next to you while you on the PC or something.
Just awesome!
Thanks SolidSnake!

Well, late to the party... but at least I got in.
Got the Yoda Bust from a boardmember today and I love this friggin' thing! First its a lot bigger than I expected, and I didn't realize he was rubbery... I was expecting him to be all polystone. Are the other 1:1 busts like this?
Anyway, incredibly happy with him. One question, what do you do to get his sleeves unwrinkled?
