Sideshow 1/6th Tusken Raider

[Wor-Gar]

Just realized what Wor-gar meant by the salmon color thing - my Tusken's outer cloak is that sort of Pottery Barn taupe but it does have a subtle wash here and there that is salmon colored (mine has very little.) I'm assuming a few cloaks got more salmon juice than others.

That's explains it. The "red mud" they must have trampled through.

Here are my custom Raiders with some new SS parts. Not sure if anyone noticed but the resperators have leather material wrapped around the can, which is a nice touch. SS could have went the easy route and just painted them.

These are fantastic!! I would buy more that looked like yours that's for sure.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yes I've bought from them twice. They're very good and if you enter FREAKS in the code box you'll get an add'l 5% off.

That's good to know. Pays for ground shipping basically.

Not sure I may have extra of them. What print run do you have?

Well, the Blue Border cards, I think I am missing 2 cards from a full set. It has been a long time since I even touched them, so I would have to dig them out to tell for sure.

Yellow and Red border cards I have multiple sets.

Green and Orange, not so much, they were getting harder to find at that point, Though I have the 3PO "dong" card from that set.

After that, Empire, tons of those.

I have no stickers to any sets though, they were just too irresistable to my young self.

I hate to point this out... but I just noticed you have two of the same bandoleers. They should be different.

My new best friend as seen on my desk...

Nice to know I'm not the only one who keeps his faves on his desk. Congrats on the Tusken, they look superb.

Ooooooooooh no! King's gonna be pissed.

LOL, Sideshow!

 

[joebizz34]

Ooooooooooh no! King's gonna be pissed.

Maybe they gave him one of the ones missing from mine.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I wonder where SS got the designs for King's missing bandolier anyway? Doesn't really look like any Tusken bandolier I've seen.

Fan-damn-tastic figure. Love the details in the head sculpt, weapons and bandoleers. He can't stand on his own to save his life, but the robes hide the stand so it doesn't bother me too much. And he could've used a little more weathering, but again, not a deal breaker. Great job by Sideshow.

 

[Niltusk]

Nice shots Batty, the ones without the outer robe are pretty cool.

Thanks! It's funny how skinny he looks without the robes.

I really have to hand it to Sideshow for the attention to detail on all the accessories.

I finally had to submit to the stand. Pivot motion on the ankles is tight, but the hinge loosened up quickly. It is easily hidden, and posing options open up when balance is no longer a concern.

 

[Centurion]

This thing looks great from any angle.
Nice pics batty.

I realy hope these guys stick around for a little while... They will be a sweet set up with the landspeeder or if we get a bantha sometime...

i think it looks better this way... more authentic...

 

[Wor-Gar]

Goddamn those are GREAT pictures! Really GREAT!!!

I'm glad you did, I never would have noticed

I'll call Sideshow Monday.
