S.H. Figuarts Star Wars

[Rafael Arenov]

If you were to pick any character for each episode of the Star Wars saga as the sort-of representative in your figuarts collection, who would it be? It can be ranged from figures already out, planned release, rumored, teased or your wish list.

Mine is:

Episode 1 - Darth Maul
Episode 2 - Mace Windu / Phase 1 Clone Trooper
Episode 3 - C3PO & R2D2
Episode 4 - Tusken Raider
Episode 5 - Boba Fett / Lando
Episode 6 - Jedi Knight Luke

 

[Smudger9]

I: Maul
II: Clone
III: Anakin
IV: Vader
V: Boba
VI: Jedi Luke

 

[Tortugatron]

I. Darth Maul
II. Phase 1 Clone
III. Darth Vader
IV. Droids
V. Han Solo Deep Freeze Ver.
VI. Jedi Luke

So, when are we getting the Shadow Trooper PO?

Neat question but I assume it doesn't mean I can just have these 6 in general? Otherwise it's impossible for me.

That said...
I Darth Maul
II Obi-Wan
(CW Captain Rex)
III Sidious
IV Han
V Vader
VI Luke

EDIT: I'd actually be fairly content with this as my entire collection if I can also have Boba and Yoda, lol.

Cool to read others' answers too, hope more people reply!

Episode 1 - Darth Maul
Episode 2 - Phase 1 Clone Trooper
Episode 3 - C3PO & R2D2
Episode 4 - Stormtrooper
Episode 5 - Snowspeeder Pilot Luke
Episode 6 - Darth Vader
Episode 7 - Kylo Ren (I'd want a First Order Stormtrooper too, but I assume there's an opportunity in Episode 8 or 9.)

Eps 1 - Maul
Eps 2 - Dooku or Clones
Eps 3 - Darth Sidious
Eps 4 - Han Solo
Eps 5 Vader
Eps 6 Jedi Luke

If they are going in waves of seemingly 3 or 4, I'm curious about the rest of the initial releases
TFA Trooper, Kylo, Phasma
ROTJ Vader, Stormtrooper, Luke, Scout Trooper
ESB Boba, Bespin Han, Lando, Yoda
ANH Droids, Luke, Han, Shadow Trooper
ROTS Anakin, Kenobi, Dooku, Grievous
AOTC Clone, don't care (lol)
TPM Maul, Kenobi, Droid, Qui-Gon


If these were it, I'd be a happy boy, although a Leia needs to be in there somewhere (probably ANH, for me anyway) But I'm all in on this line, so I hope they keep going. To this point Vader is the weak link, and he's pretty darn good. Keep 'em coming I say.

@Monk nice 5 out of 6 the same.

We probably wont, it will just show up on secondary markets like ebay and nipon yasan, its an event exclusive so you wont find it on HLJ or anything

We have good taste!

Finally finished my 1st rough attempt at Maul's robe, the patterns were hard as **** to figure out I'm guessing one or 2 more attempts and it should come out great, just need to shrink the hood a little bit and use the second fabric with the creases pattern.

Pardon the overexposure, my phone is crap and can hardly pick up anything, it actually looks better in person, all black and clean, but I need the overexposure to be able to show anything at all, so it looks dusty and greyish. Of course the final one will be properly hemmed and everything too.

Here's the hi-res https://i.imgur.com/qRDIATM.jpg

Don't mean to spam, just took a few more pics, I'm liking the cut, I might use it for the final version with minimal changes.

They are maybe the worst toy company to exist. They are nothing but scalpers. They go into areas and literally buy everything and then resell it on there site for twice the retail price. Disgusting.

Just wanted to second this. I made the huge mistake of ordering a Neca TMNT Raphael from them. As some of you may know, there are very good bootlegs of this figure that you can get for 10 bucks each roughly. I ordered from ToyWiz because I wanted a legit one, and I made the mistake of assuming they wouldn't sell me a bootleg figure for authentic price (roughly 70 dollars, now they are worth 150ish). I got my package and noticed right out of the package that it had every sign of being a bootleg. ToyWiz wouldn't refund me and denied it was a bootleg, when it clearly was. Terrible unethical company.

Can someone have a picture of figuarts Luke holding a BS blue lightsaber?

What a dumpsterfire... no jk, that's impressively hand made. I think it'll look better if you close the robe more and let the hood hang folded downward more. It's a bit oversized, but no way I could make anything like that from scratch. Do you think you can still adjust the hood size?

I can't wait to try out my idea for his robe... but he needs to freakin get here first!

yeah the robe closes just fine I just had it opened for no particular reason in those pics and yeah I plan to shrink the hood, I had it that big so I can work on the draping effect and work my way from there, been testing different lengths.

What idea do you have for your robe? Did you get one from the eBay seller?

 

[Silrian]

Ah cool! Yeah obviously you can't reverse that, once it's smaller it can't get bigger... I think...

Nope, I'm gonna try and repurpose a 6" nazgul robe and gonna repupose old cloth action figure material from an old Vader doll to fasion the hood. No idea if it'll blend well enough or whatever. I don't mod much, just here and there if I feel like it improves it for me personally. But apart from having a motif (that could easily be seen as desert dirt) and lacking a cloth hood, the robe itself is pretty close to what he wore on tatooine. It might not work at all, but I can't wait to find out lol.

Here's a picture of the figure that has the robe I mean:

I could use that weird rubbery hood but doesn't fit. The robes are a little torn but not much and I hope it only looks cooler. Don't need 90%+ accuracy.

 

[GasparZizou]

Oh cool, I'd like to see the result for sure.
