S.H. Figuarts Star Wars

[Rogerbee]

If I found one on clearance I could maybe be persuaded. I would see if I could use the Mafex cape on whatever I did get, whether it was the BS or the kit. Still, we haven't seen a Mafex or SHF Rogue One Vader yet.........

MyKombini shipped my Padme. Looking forward to it.

Well, time to come clean [emoji14]

I also just got BS Vader; Amazon were selling it cheap because the box was damaged and it was missing part of the base, and I wasn't interested in that anyway. I wasn't willing to pay figuarts price for it with a crappy stand!

I firstly have to apologise to everyone in this instance; it does look good, and the height is perfect, however, that's not to say the figure is. Its maybe not as bad as most BS figures, but compared to a figuarts it's rubbery as anything. I can't get over how plyable the helmet and legs are!

So Yeah, he looks the part surprisingly, but doesn't feel nearly premium enough. Still, from someone who can't stand the BS line, I would say that's a great compliment from me [emoji14]

Nice pics though Gaspar

A review will be up on my YouTube channel next week

Didn't know you had a channel, look forward to your review.

Weird, mine doesn't feel one bit gummy, the helmet does feel rubbery but that is by design so it doesn't break, which is a good decision, and not warped at all.

In fact, it feels heavier than SHF Darth Maul, paint apps are near perfect, the only real defect I noticed is that the brow on the one I opened up is slightly crooked, thanks to American casting techniques I guess, the one I left MIB is all around perfect.

Those Vaders have practically become shelf spacers at my local Walmarts, Gamestop, BB and TRUs. I guess nobody wants to pay an extra $20 for the display

Doesn't surprise me, didn't even get the stand out of the box

Tfw best Vader will go on clearance on BBTS and I paid full price :

I've decided I'm gonna keep Ani. Another reason I considered selling it was the inevitability of them making ep III version. But now I'll be able to do an evolution thing lol. Just need to decide what Vader to get.

 

[Star-Crunch]

How he's displayed for now...



Edit: Sorry, don't know why it's sideways

 

[GasparZizou]

Last BS pics I spam here, I know it's technically OT, sorry :C

Took me 10 minutes to make this cape and it makes the figure so much better.

****, Padme just hit yesterday and MyKombini has already doubled the price. I really hate these exclusives.

I'm crying internally for not having the possibility to preorder Qui-Gon....My wallet will literally bleed in August.

Same. My interest in the line is starting to wane. If I can't get Padme I'll likely sell my Ep 2 figs and focus on the OT. Getting sick of their crap.

You guys should feel lucky to even be able to order these, as has been stated many many times, these are not meant for collectors outside of japan, plain and simple, direct all whining to disney

 

[Eddranger]

The only one I lost out on early was Unmasked Kylo when he was $90. Once it hit Ebay it started going between $140-$160. For some odd reason a guy put an opened one up for only $95 and I jumped on it quick.

Can't take a chance waiting. I order the exclusive ones quick. I always make sure I have spare $90 in my bank for Star Wars alone.

Hey if you're bored at work, head on over and take a look at my new Anakin write up!

The color of Padme's hair doesn't bug me in person the way it does in images.

 

[ragacin]

Had one more shot to contribute

 

[Flintty]

I nabbed an order for Qui Gon today. Still not happy about Padme though, prices are insane. I hope they do a re-issue.

 

[superdoug]

Where did you nab an order for Qui-Gon?

 

[Flintty]

He popped up on Nin-Nin. A bit pricey but not as bad as Padme.
