Ralph McQuarrie Artist Series

[choopie]

The pose is ok, the sculpt is cool, but why the tall base?

Probably to give it the illusion that it's bigger than it actually is.

I like the Stormtrooper, but hate that it's not 1/4 scale.

Sorry - to clarify, Mythos isn't dead as a line. When I spoke at the panel I think I had only mentioned we were directing our resources toward the McQuarrie figures to get those out into the market. We do have plans to return to Mythos in the future (pending LFL's approval of where we intend to take the characters) so please don't get too bummed out. Just a bit of a hiatus while we focus on some other aspects of Star Wars.

I enjoyed that panel, Matt. You guys had me at McQuarrie.

Great news to hear. I think the McQuarrie statues look great, but the Mythos line was being executed brilliantly and I can't wait to see what other pieces you bring to the market.

I think Disney has made it pretty clear that "interpretations" are out the window. But hopefully they will loosen the strings a bit after the new movie hits. Did grievous ever get produced as a one-of-a-kind proto? If so, you guys could raise a lot of money for your charity by putting him up on ebay...I know I would be ready to fork over some serious dough : )

That's good to hear... you guys did some incredible work on that line. The Kenobi drops jaws whenever anyone sees it.

A shame they didn't make these 1/4 to fit in with my PFs. I like them and would have bought them. As it is, only collecting the one scale now.

With the bases they're tall enough to fit with them (same as mythos).

Sideshow's gonna be showing off the Boba Fett statue at San Diego Comic Con next week.

Took long enough. Perfect, as I'm outta the game now.

Probably a pre-order shortly after they show it off.

You can always get back in.

 

[furystorm]

Nah, I think I'm going all the way out this time. It's time...

But I do appreciate the McQuarrie love. That's for sure!

 

[Trengence]

Look amazing. I can't wait. I've always loved that helmet. I don't recall though, are these going ti be all polystone like the mythos or mixed media

I think fully sculpted.

This line will tempt me, but I'm hoping to be out, too. These things are just getting too expensive.

 

[Aliaz]

Not into statues at all but its nice to see this line anyway. Always liked McQuarries artwork.

 

[Centurion]

Love McQ's designs. Looking forward to the release.

If I were in the game, those two and Vader would be a must.

the needlessly tall bases bug the heck out of me.
