Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

Is no one disturbed by the obscene gap between his chest armour and the neck plate??

I have the other BF PF's and would definitely get this one, but that chest armour placement is horrendous. Not once, on any iteration of the character, has it ever sat that ridiculously low.

All I can see is that damn gap :(

It's too small :<
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

It looks a bit low to me too. Maybe just on the proto?
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

The gap definitely doesn't help but the armor also does look abit small or even just "slimmer". Bringing the armor up would definitely help fix the eyesore that it is to most people though.
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

I always felt the chest armor on the ESB was a bit smallish too, but it was more obscured by his arms (and the pose).

The gap is too big. Hopefully it gets adjusted. In the movies it did vary slightly but it was never this large.

I cracked and preordered him today. There are other pieces I want but they do not have the presence of this piece and I can live with the gap if they don't fix it. He's expensive but I used my reward points.
Now I'm going to have to repose my hot toys 1/4 scale...

Thank you. It's what I said awhile back. With the small armor & the gap, it looks like "fat guy in a little coat"
I also have the previous BF PFs, & I'm surprised, but I'm sitting this one out.
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

Can they please just fix that ridiculous collar plate gap? That is the hugest gap I have ever seen and it takes away from the overall look of the figure. If it can't be 501st approved I don't want it.... lololzzzzzz

Saw this at celebration... that pose is very very awkward .. he is kind of modeling posing.... not liking it :(

I am not really impressed with this one either.
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

PO'd. I don't have a Boba in my collection and I much prefer this pose vs the most recent version SS released. The battle damage on the suit looks great too. Let's just hope the head is polystone and NOT PVC

yes.. pose looks good in pictures.. but in person its very strange to be honest... and I really wanted to like this cause Im not happy with the surfing boba that much

In some angles it looks a bit odd, but straight on it looks good to my eye, I'm sure I'll find an angle that works for me. IMO it's still much nicer than the surfing Boba or the XM boba (which is a hot mess)
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

I don't care if his pose is holding a bouquet of flowers, fix the collar gap.

I'm serious fix it.
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

I'm not even a stickler for accuracy but I gotta agree that gap is waaaaayy too big.

hehehe...the chances are unfortunately slim to none. These are SS "unique take" on these characters, didn't you know? It is an easy way for them to cope out of any responsibility for "accuracy".
 
Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

Mythos and XM are still the best for me.

Wish the pose and base were better.
