S.H. Figuarts Star Wars

[Big Deano]

Took me a bit to realize that was greyscale, I had to backtrack thinking that was Palpatine haha!

Congrats on starting the collection man!

@everyone The rickhor409 cloth item review should be up tomorrow, apologies for my absence, work and life in general have been horrible lately!

Sorry for the following off-topic question...

But any of you here collect black series figures? Im thinking of getting flame troopers and snow troopers this weekend to compliment my figuarts fo stormies and kylo

Are these black series flame and snow stormies any good? I know i won't have any problems scale-wise.

Sorry for the off topic question again

Hi guys, just received my Kotobukiya ARTFX PLUS Captain Phasma! The chrome finishing is more accurate, in my opinion, compared to S.H. Figuarts series. The only downside of this is the limited poses this line has.

A huge thank you to shockwave for contacting me about selling his Stormtrooper! To make this a Luke-in-Stormtrooper-outfit figure, I ended up just removing the trooper helmet and pulling out the joint in the trooper's neck, then setting a spare Jedi Luke head on the neck (without removing or doing anything to the Luke head). The head sits very loose on the figure right now (I may have to hold it in place with some of that Blu-Tack some here have mentioned), but it looks great and gives me another figure for my Mark Hamill shelf!

Actually looks very accurate to me

Looks great

I hate to do this, but this line is a slippery slope I don't think I'll be able to keep up with. I'm selling mine if interested...

The BS flame trooper is pretty good. It takes some fiddling but you can get him to look good holding his weapon. The black series figures are a brighter white compared to figurarts. That might bother some people but it shouldn't be a problem if they aren't right next to each other.

Here you go...



Sorry this doesn't really show the color correctly.

 

[Subdomain]

This is more accurate.

 

[Big Deano]

Is it just me, or are the paint app lines on the flametroopers face VERY sloppy, even for black series?

 

[Big Deano]

Ok, here we go! One review of the Model Kit Phasma and the soft goods by Rickhor409!

 

[Eric Magnus]

This is more accurate.

Looks awesome eitherway. Thanks for the inputs man! I also dig that snow trooper design so id probably get him as well

Is there any hope of getting a scout trooper w/ bike or FO riot trooper without huge markup closer to release?

 

[Smudger9]

Managed to do the Luke Stormie thing. Love it. Now bring on ANH Han!

I inadvertently found the perfect material to make a real cape for Phasma out of.

Believe it or not this is the screen cleaning cloth that came with my MacBook!

It's not quite the same texture as other microfiber cloths I have, unfortunately Apple don't sell them separately either - so I'm probably going to be gouged picking up a couple off Ebay. Plan is to use one for the body of the cape, hemming a wire into it, and another to cut up and make the various pockets and straps out of. Not sure how to approach adding the red stripe, I was considering making a small heat vinyl transfer if the material will take it.

Anyone got a top 10 list of wanted Figures to share? Feels like we're into a bit of a draught with Figures from this line and Marvel line right now.
Anyway here's my top 10

Kit Fisto
Ahsoka Tano
Ep 3 Evil Anakin
Ep 3 Obi Wan
Qui-Gonn
Ep 4 Han Solo
Pilot Luke
Destroyer Droid with Bubble Shield
Darth Tyrannus
General Grevious.
Bonus: Kanan Jarrus

Too many to list. I'd take any of the original Kenner figures, anything clone, the main heroes/villains from the prequels and anything from TFA.
