Sideshow Bith 'Modal Nodes' Cantina Band

[devilof76]

Still works. If there were anything to complain about with these it would be the fact that all the heads are identical, but I can see how it would be more trouble than it's worth to try and nail down the differences when they're all so similar. They're marginal characters in the first place, and that's a hard sell.

 

[SilentSurfer]

Since all the heads in the movie were probably the same mask cast over and again, I don't really see that as a problem.

 

[devilof76]

It looks like there may have been two different molds, or at the least, two different qualities to how the casts turned out. A few of the members seem to have smaller heads with more pronounced brows.

But you're right. It's not a problem. The difference is negligible in 1:1, and it would be a waste of time in 1:6.

I cant wait to get these guys. I guess it will be nostalgia from when I was a kid looking for the 12" Walmart exclusive set. I was so happy when I found all of them since Dan was really hard to find. I wish they would do the other instrument (Gasan String Drum). Do these happen to include the undershirts as well?

 

[Qrest Fourstar]

Do you mean these two?

.

Yes, I mean one of those two. If you go here
https://cantinacustoms.tripod.com/id25.htm (and I will try and link the pictures I'm referring too, but I never have any luck at it) That the sit down whatever you want to call it, the think that looks like it was made from chrome car parts is in pictures from SW.

Its tough to see, but it's there. It also looks like there's a box to it's right. You can make out the edge. Although I do agree there is no proof in SW that this:

Is in there.

What's the deal with black v grey pants on some of the members?

 

[devilof76]

Grey in the movie, black in the HS?

 

[FLOSI]

Ah... I’ll keep the grey pants then. I kinda like the all black look, but if I'm going to add a Bith to my collection I guess I'd rather he represent one of my favorite films of all time over the one moment in Bea Arthur's acting career where she wasn't the ugliest person on the screen.

^^ That can never be unseen.

 

[devilof76]

At best, it can be unposted.

Unfortunately, I have no mod powers here.

 

[SilentSurfer]

I love Luke's expression, like he's thinking what we're all thinking seeing that pic.

 

[FLOSI]

Nathan, did'nt you get the new Sandtrooper the other day too?

 

[Darth Waller]

He did. Check the sandtrooper thread for a shot of them together.

 

[FLOSI]

Just saw it... looks nice! Paint apps are improved!

 

[SilentSurfer]

Sorry, I had more on my plate than I thought, but more Sandtrooper pics will go up later.

 

[Quarthon]

Congratulation on the piece. Definitely worth picking up.

Here he is with sleeves up and down. I modded the right pinky finger to stick out like it is in the movie. I used a sewing pin and pushed it all the way up into the soft material of the finger in the pose I wanted. The tube going to his mouth is metal and is originally curved back up too parallel to the horn, making the horn touch his face. The metal tube is very rigid, but can be bent out to a more suitable angle with some serious force.
