Sideshow 1:6 Commander Cody

[ChrisClassics]

well i guess i would be a bit pissed off as well,but i think its only clearly visible when you look at directly from the front,right?

Correct. As it is now, I'm just gonna take it. I mean, he is really a fantastic figure, and with any of the other two heads, he is flawless.

What is misplaced on his head? I know he is missing his Ear - Do - Dad, but he looks right....isn't he?

 

[ChrisClassics]

His shade is "crooked" The picture is taken head on so you should be able to see that it is not centered.

Got mine as well. Noticed that the left eye pupil had pretty bad paint application. Had to go through 5 boxes until I found one which was ok.

Oh my! did rex have this problem as well, or is this special to Cody?
Now im worried to order cody online..

Nope, Rex paint apps were top notch. I was actually surprised that the qc for Cody was that bad, some of the figs I scour through had 1 pupil looking up and the other looking up. One even had the pupil painted 3/4 of the eye, covering the white color of eye

My Rex had his pupil's missed up. but I'm on the verge of repainting all my SS SW figures so even though I was a bit upset about it, at the end of the day, he's getting repainted anyway

Okay now i wont be able to sleep until Rex arrives on Monday

As for cody, I'll just look for one in a local hobby shop XD hopefully the august wave will refill the shelves.

 

[Gipetto0812]

And just hate that SSC replaced they standard awesome grips with HT's like hooks, lame

Thanks for sharing , funny thing about the stands is most feel the opposite way about the new stands.

 

[Gipetto0812]

yea very true man. I'm one of those who's glad sideshow dropped the 'C' ring stands and switched to the 'U' ring ones

great weathering

Loving this pic. your camera must be pretty costly to get that kind of shot, huh? I feel like I'm looking at my figure on display

 

[ProgMatinee]

I like the new stands for Clones, but everything else, I prefer the old stands.

I hate the new stands for my GI Joe figures.

Wheres the best deal for this figure these days? For some reason gohastings is way overpriced for this particular figure, does not make sense.

Still waiting patiently for my backordered Commander Cody from ssc. The site still has Aug 2011 listed. Anyone hear anything about it being pushed back?

yeah I knew that.

I just can't stand of it coz: 1) it makes difficult to shift figures hips together; 2) figures fallin' under its own weight when you tryin' action poses AND even when you just move them from place to place. But anyway this can be fixd with hairdryer and pliers

How much of a heads up did they give you before he shipped?

Thanks for the comments verbal, nope, its only a Nikon 50mm 1.4G. I couldn't get less than 1 feet away to take the shot. Macro shots tend to display a fair bit of color fridging.

 

[Gipetto0812]

Finally put my order down for Cody at SSC. hope the backorders get filled by the end of August like the product page says. I've waited too long for this figure.

gotta agree with you with number 1 there man. That's my only gripe about those crotch stands.
