Sideshow 1/6 R2-D2

[Wor-Gar]

There has been some good ones. The best being the Emperor. I also really like Vaders force choke bent finger and Bobas beach towel.

Can you beat Bespin Han's Mynock?

 

[Tee-Kay]

Only got a handfull of ex. Qui-Gon Poncho, storm Blaster, Vader's choking hand, IG-88 blade. To me, they must really add display options value as ordering Sideshow direct is so much expensive.

That one would stay in the box.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I think the two best EXs were Emperor's 2nd head and Han's Mynock -- I mean, it's a whole other creature included.

 

[Wor-Gar]

That one would stay in the box.

But it has a magnet, so its perfect to feed on your fridge.

No, current consensus is Tamashii is not going to happen. Even if Tamashii or HT release the ultimate 1:6 scale R2 with a spun aluminium dome, it's going to be years from now. The regular SSC R2 is $130.00 with a $20 off coupon, essentially 'dirt cheap' in this hobby, so I'd get it, if I were you. You can always find a spot for R2 if a better version comes out.

I used a $20 coupon on the exclusive... great price at $130

That's definitely one of the best, but didn't we have to pay an extra $5 over the cost the regular? I seem to recall that causing a bit of a hub-bub not to mention the chubby sculpt

My favorite exclusives have always been the severed heads... like Pam Vorhees, Orc with Boromir and the battle droid with Kit Fisto. The Jango helmet that came with Mace was a let down, weak paint and it was neither a helmet or a severed head, but a crummy over-sized hunk of plastic

The worst exclusives are the dumb themed stands that came with Boba and the clones... nothing fun or cool about those IMO.

poop is poopy.

Oopies.

 

[TheFiend]

Yeah. Its sucks.

Why does Mace look NOTHING like SLJ.

 

[pixletwin]

I actually like the Mace quite a bit.

If I remember the proto was quite good, but LFL made Andy change the sculpt for whatever insane reason.

The Qui-Gon poncho should have never been an exclusive. He wore it for the the entire film, well almost.

Yeah, my Mynock holds up coupons on the fridge.

The Qui-Gon poncho should have never been an exclusive. He wore it for the the entire film, well almost.

It also made the figure look a lot better... hid the ugly body and have him a bit of visual interest compared to the rest of the Jedi.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah, my Mynock holds up coupons on the fridge.

Exclusive AND useful. Probably get more use out of that Mynock than any other figure you've ever bought.

 

[Reefer Shark]

think my favorite ex lately has been Bossk, that snarling head is sick... I think it's kinda dumb when the EX item is something that really should be included with the regular though. IG-88's vibro axe comes to mind since he has the spot for it on the reg

But very appreciated by overseas customers like me. They helped save quite a few $$$

That is the Premium Format statue. Not the 1:6 figures.

Oops...duh. should've noticed the base. At least those look in scale lol

I wouldn't mind having the exclusives for this but I won't be too upset just getting the regular figure. For the most part R2D2 is just going to be displayed regular without any of the accesories anyways so the extra exclusives would wind up staying in the box. I think I'll preorder this when the October coupon is relased.
