Ok, so you can barely see anything at all. In fact, all you see is hands, but hasnt anyone noticed the "Behind the show" feature with Adam Huges yet? There's a couple of shots in it from his customized Anakin 12". And what do we see in the last shot?

This:

12" Palpy hands!!! :emperor


Btw, here's the link to the feature:
Behind the Show with Adam Huges
 
How do we know that's not one of Hughes' own customs?
And besides, with Scum & Villainy likely to come out with the next figure, it'll be awhile before we get Palps, I'd think.
 
Be awhile? They've only just got into the Sith line. And we've only gotten 2 Sith so far. We've already had more Jedi than that. And there are quite a few open spots on that Comic-Con interactive booth map for the Star Wars 12" line.
 
I hope thats a custom because I would've hoped Palps' hands to be a bit more detailed than that. I am pretty darn sure it is just a custom.

I think many believe Palp is near if not here.... :emperor
 
I think we'll see Palpatine at SDCC.

Along with 2 Scum & Villany, Leia & Lando from Heroes of the Rebellion & Ki-Adi Mundi from Order of the Jedi.

Then again, I'm just very optimistic

You may be pretty warm there, I like your call with Palp and Lando... and yes at least one S&V fig. SSC really needs to catch up with their OT figs, but some say they are purposely holding them back to roll them out for next year's 30th Anniversary of ANH so Lando or Leia Ep 4 or 5 make sense to me...
 
Didn't realize there were so many open SDCC preview slots. Anyways... I still doubt that's NOT a custom and if Palps is coming then I want the ROTS version from the Mace duel.

yes i also want the 12" palpatine to be from ROTS(but with interchangeable robes to cover the mace fight and the yoda fight)

but for the PF i want ROTJ!!! all the way
 
The PF will definitely be ROTJ.

ROTS Sidious will be the next Sith 12" figure. And as for upcoming Jedi, will they try to complete the ROTS showdown with Saesee Tiin and Agen Kolar? Or complete the Duel of the Fates with an Ep. I Obi-Wan? Or give us an Aayla Secura just for fun? Or will they reveal the ultimate Jedi...

Can it be true, is Palpatine here at last. I'm hoping for the announcement at the SDCC, and I really hope it's the ROTS "Mace duel" version also:emperor
 
I'm 99% sure that hand is from the RotS HASBRO Palpatine. You can see its those sleeves from the Yoda duel robe as well. The hand is probably just repainted like his Anakin.
 
I am 100% sure that hand isn't from the Hasbro Sidious. Because on the hasbro version his fingers are jointed. The ones in that picture are not.

Yep, you are right. His left hand looks like that though and I think that was what I was thinking. It now looks to me like it is a Sideshow hand (perhaps from an Art S. Buck?). It is definately the Yoda duel robes though.

Yup... the Hasbro ROTS robes... I call this one out as a custom, LIKE FER SURE! :monkey5

I would like to see what the rest of his Sidious looks like.

That's a custom paint job of Anakin, correct? His lips and eyerbows look good in that last shot, even though his lower lip still looks a tad small.
