Sideshow Cad Bane The Clone Wars Animated 1/6 Scale Figure

[MyenShi]

Hondo as a part of this hit or miss animated line feels like a monkey’s paw wish being granted when we asked Sideshow to do more aliens and characters Hot Toys won’t do.

I imagine he could be made to work with realistic figures. Will need a body swap but that’s a figure I’d consider if it turns out well. Only at a discount though. Not paying $300 (no one should).

Interesting to see the line potentially continuing. Guess sales must be decent. Would be nice if they make improvements and redeem themselves.

Hondo Ohnaka in the background!!!​

Man, why couldn't SS just add that second headsculpt with the slightly opened mouth.

Cool to see Hondo and Robo Maul in the background

Grievous leg too right? Wonder if they’re gonna do an animated version

 

[Wor-Gar]

General Grievous, yes!

If you're referencing the unpainted leg at the far, front left in the image, I believe that's just an unpainted mechano Maul leg and not Grievous' leg. Unless I'm missing it somewhere else in the pic

Yeah you’re right. Darn

Anyone here know if that body is new and/or improved?

 

[Chopper Face]

Well, it’s nice to see they’re delving deeper into the line with the likes of Hondo. The more aliens the better.

Mecha Maul should lead into a Savage Opress and I’ll remain hopefully for a Dooku and Ventress. Pong Krell anyone? Mother Talzin? Embo? The Mortis Gods?!! Sign me up.
But, for the love of God, roll out a well made Cad Bane first so we actually have some faith in this line!

So far, the TCW figures aren’t great on their own- but as a collective- they should shine. That means giving Sideshow far more money than they deserve but we do what we must in this game.

I too got excited for an animated Greivous for a minute there. Maybe someday. Although it will be extra painful to give SSC more money for another Grievous given what an embarrassment the first one and the release are.

I wonder what the second Cad Bane head is all about? Just showing us a rejected proto for some reason or hinting at a variant?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Damn... no Grievous?

 

[Chopper Face]

Damn... no Grievous?

Nah, it’s Maul’s leg.

Who wants to bet Sideshow will just use plastic friction joints?

Not new. Same body that was used for Darth Maul Dual on Naboo version, Deluxe ROTJ Luke, Ghost Face and Freddy Krueger.
I believe CW Anakin and ObiWan were also on modified versions of that body

 

[slynger]

Nah, it’s Maul’s leg.

Well, that is the cheapest route.

 

[Ramatuelle]

Hondo would be a hoot to have on the shelf. Why do I think they will charge $300 for him.....?

Cause I would not be surprised at all.

But watch them price it like it’s made of Vibranium.

If they had the gall to price their Cad Bane higher than the universally applauded HT version- technically a competing figure- they will absolutely price Hondo sky-high considering their’s will be the only available option.

Bane got todo so Hondo should come with his little monkey pal, Mukmuk, and SSC already have a mold for an electrostaff from Greivous, so that should also be included.

Got a delayed email for this.

That sucks. I was thinking about picking this guy up

After watching Bad Batch season 3 I really hope they make Ventress. Either the classic version or the new one. She needs more love

I would be totally down for a Bad Batch Ventress.
