Sideshow CIV Exclusive Confirmed

[Seretur]

A very good choice, and right on track, seemingly.

The more I think of this piece (and I do, being idle and all), the less I think it'll even be a VS. The pointedly announced it as a diorama/environment, which would indicate the ambient is more important to it than the conflict.

(Btw, I just bought the GG Han vs. Greedo bookend diorama -- that one is in scale with the Dewback, which I don't think I'll ever be able to afford...)

 

[MaulFan]

I actually really want that as a diorama. I would really like for something like that to be in scale with the GG Sandtrooper and Dewback. That would be awesome.

That's pretty much my point, I think many people would like that piece, I don't think anyone will not like what it is, but based on SSC hints, it's going to be a moment like that where it is memorable and all, but like I said, if you had to spout of 10 classic moments to dio in a a minute, I doubt that moment would be on too many people's lists.

The "unique" part of the paragraph is annoying me

It suggest something that has never been done before & obviously to do with EPIV

I kind of hope Sideshow releases the Landspeeder Luke Obi-Wan and the droids as the major 12" announcement for this year but I guess I can just go on dreaming. The Landspeeder could be $250, a droids 2 pack would be $100, Luke and Obi-Wan coming in at around $60 each and we basically have what we had last year at SDCC except they all better be inclusives.

My new guess is Princess Leia giving R2 the stolen Death Star plans aboard the Tantive IV. A truly classic but unique moment. I believe I just had a moment of inspiration.

Reasoning:
Truly a classic moment
not something people would think about at first ( it took me a week)
Small in size at that scale
Would be good to carry around in about at 12 X 12 X 6 box.
$90.00

 

[The Josh]

That's a very good guess.

Luke and Leia swinging to safety ...

For luck.

 

[MaulFan]

That one's a possibility Jason, that's another case of the image is burned in our memories, but it's not at the forefront like Vader vs Ben and moments like that.

unique could also mean personal or personalised

I'd take a Millenium Falcon environment for the 12" line over a landspeeder any day... The chess table was the hint--- two sets before the end of the year--- the MF c_o_c_k_pit and the "lounge" part where Chewie plays R2D2 and Luke learns that crazy old religion--- but then nothing beats a good blaster at your side, right Han (CIV ex for ANH?)

It'd make a nice dio, but based on the CIV clues, wayyyy too iconic, deffinately something many people would think of.

mos eisley environment?

Now that would be awesome as well. I would not complain one bit and I would be very happy with it. Plus we could get Han Chewie Luke and the Droids and maybe old ben.

 

[DarthNeil]

We neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed the MF c_o_c_k_pit.... It's a necessity if you're going to pose any of these 12" from ANH that will be announced---now...... now... OK.... about-----------nnnnnnow?

I hope that pieces gets made some day but there are really tons of possibilities.

 

[Booyah!]

I'm ready to find out all the exclusives tomorrow night.

One can only hope..... and I do.

 

[Darth Madden]

I'm ready to find out all the exclusives tomorrow night.

Get ready to wait at least another week. I doubt they will announce them 2 1/2 months early. I hope I am wrong though.

 

[DarthNeil]

Like the "Vader" (Sith Anakin) an Exclusive would have to be a variation on a pre-existing figure (otherwise there'd be a riot if a totally new figure emerged for only CIV and a handful for others). In that reasoning a new 12" figure would have to be announced well in advance with its variant the exclusive (and it must be in the works ready to roll out so there must be 12"---from ANH hopefully--- ready to come out to play---er, for pre-order).

Yeah, wishful thinking. I'm just itching for an announcment....I need my Star Wars crack!
