Sideshow Bith 'Modal Nodes' Cantina Band

[Qrest Fourstar]

From the cantina resource page(sorry, didn't bring the pictures with me):

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


Now if you will look at the picture above, look between #5 and #4's heads and you will see the top of the instrument that #6 (Ickabel G'ont) is playing; and it is not a Fanfar. Now, I'm not exactly sure if there is an "official" name for this instrument, but on Red 6's website, they mention that Tech M'or is a "former Rakassah player, now prefers to play the Omni Box". So, I'm gonna call it a "Rakassah stand-up bass". Here is an image of it from the Star Wars Holiday Special.


All names are cannon but L'ars M'eyer. But there are 7.

I picked up a full set of the POTF Cantina aliens and it's coming with a different model Dan. I'll probably buy an extra two pack and see if I can't cast some instruments

You're the one who bought my Bith!

Congrats!

This is almost sold out.

Weird that $99 seems like a bargain for a 1:6 figure just a few months later...

But still too expensive.

 

[devilof76]

I'd give them $80 for it.

I wonder if the two-packs will be cheaper.

You're the one who bought my Bith!

Congrats!

Awesome! I bought those just for this project...LOL

Glad to hear it was from someone on here!

Yeah and I'm still bouncing the idea back and forth of getting Dan for free via reward points or keeping them and buying him on the secondary market. Decisions, decisions...

So yeah, I spent the reward points yesterday and got this ordered...

I wonder whats keeping Sideshow from releasing the rest.

 

[Spicymustard]

So what is the story on these? Are they still releasing all 5, or was it 6? Like others I wouldn't mind picking up one, but yeah, price is kind of through the roof for what you get, seeing as this is one of few december releases now, it seems more tempting. If I were to play it smart though, I should probably pick one up on the cheap on ebay down the line.

 

[Wor-Gar]

That was it. No more. You get one.

Kidding. I'm sure SS is waiting to spring another Bith and more battle droids at any moment.

This thread just makes me sad everytime I see it.

Model Node Band 2pack is gonna be available through retailers (up on Sideshow's site, but you can't order through them).

Tedn D'hai and Nalan Cheel

For $74 a piece I'm definitely feeling these more than the single figure for $100.

 

[Darth Waller]

Tedn D'hai and Nalan Cheel are being packaged together for $149.99 and will be availiable from retailers soon.

EDIT: gb beat me to it.

 

[galactiboy]

Hells yeah I did!!!

 

[Darth Waller]

Hells yeah I did!!!

Anyone know if AlterEgo is going to carry these? I see nothing on their Facebook page.

I'm sure they will.

 

[galactiboy]

Yep, they carried the previous retailer exclusives.
