Sideshow Bith 'Modal Nodes' Cantina Band

[Darth Mitchell]

Why do people think they will sell this in a fourpack?
They are just doing the same with them as they did with the sandtroopers. They know there are people that would like just one and some that would like all 5-7 of them.
They would make much more money in this way then when they would do it as a fourpack

 

[Darth Mitchell]

And if Figrin Dan comes with the string drum as an exclusive...I am gonna be a happy camper.

String Drum?

 

[The Craw]

drums are a "percussion" instrument.

I thought we had discussed this a few months ago:

https://cantinacustoms.tripod.com/id18.htm




The band members are numbered according to appearance in the film.
#1 Doik Natts on the Peel Rod
#2 Lars M'yer on Gasan String Drums
#3 Figrin D'an on the Kloo Horn
#4 Tedn H'ai on the Fanfar
#5 Nalan Cheel on the Bandfill
#6 Ickabel G'ont on the Rakassah stand-up bass
#7 Tech Mor on the Omni Box



I hope they sell them separately. I would like 7 even if I have to scratchbuild me 2 more instruments.

Who is this Lars M'yer you speak of? I know it's mentioned on the cantina customs site but I've never seen it anywhere else.

Evidently the author of the site came up with the name.

from Sirsevesguide:
Thanks, the link to the page has changed. Here is the new link https://cantinacustoms.tripod.com/id90.htm

I had trouble with a couple of pictures on the page, so I had to delete that particular page (and its id #) and re-do it. If you notice I gave the Gasan String Drummer a name - Lars M'yer. I used "Lars" to refer to another famous drummer Lars Ulrich from Metallica; and M'yer comes from Meyer, a last name I saw in an article. I know it doesn't sound as "other-worldly" as Figrin D'an, but it was the best I could come up with.
I would like to come up with names for the other "unnamed characters" I have pics of.

So, it's not an official name. I think it's interesting on the main SW databank, it says 7 band members. Until a few months ago, I always thought it was 6.

And I had always thought it was 6 on stage and Larin Car'n sitting at a table (afterall, he's the one listed as the 7th everywhere...lol)

Now that I really look at it though, there are 7 on stage, so Car'n has to be simply a Cantina alien and not a band member.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Technically, Lirin Car'n was shown at a table in the Cantina and the other 6 on stage.

Your pic actually does show all 7. Can you count them all? It's like a kid's menu game.

 

[Darth Cruel]

Vindication...another way to say..."I told ya so".

LOL, that it does. Very easy to miss the extra pair of shoulders in it.

Love seeing all the differend Aliens. Seems like SS has to make some new body's

 

[Agent0028]

You guys have to admit, it's kinda funny that we'll debate about the number of members in the Cantina band and discuss their names and various instruments.

Four or five will be enough for me. I'm a big enough geek that I would love to have the full seven member band, but since I didn't know it was a 7 member band before this thread I'll give my bank account a break.

 

[DarthTrafford]

This pic should put an end to the debate on how many members were in the band!

Being a huge mega KISS fan, that's AWESOME!

 

[Deeznutz6]

Im going to guess, they sell one for 129.99$ with all the instruments, and any additionals sans intruments will be 89.99$

 

[ProgMatinee]

LOL at $90 for that, if you're right. For the sake of hoping their is a sane body at SSC making decisions, I'm going to guess $75.

 

[Agent0028]

I remember when the Bond figures used to come out with a ____ton of accesories for 40 bucks.

 

[devilof76]

I remember when the dollar was worth 20% more than it is now.

 

[Agent0028]

And gas was two-something.

 

[barryo]

and a quality hooker was $50...............
