Nice. Looks good.
Hasbro Maul came today. The cloak has worked out really good, though I think I'm going to put a stitch on each side of the hood so it sits where I want it to be. Thinking about cutting the saber that came with him in half and repainting it to set on his stand, and seeing if I can grind down the saber poles to fit into SSC Maul's lightsaber...

Edit- stitched the hood down.
That ****ing sucks. Luckily, it's the cheap hasbro one I'm talking about, but I am afraid that's going to happen to the expensive one. His hands are so ****ing rigid that I had the little black nub for his belt clip come off when I was trying to get it in his hand and had to super glue it back on.My Maul lightsaber staff just snapped in half last night when I was trying to take it out of his hand, strangely enough it was a clean break that formed two perfect Sith lightsabers.....still cant say Im happy about it though as now I have to purchase his staff again loose.

Was it a one off custom robe? I'm so curiousI also purchased a custom robe for him that was $65 so once I rebuy his staff this figure is gonna cost me about as much as a Hot Toys diecast IM figure!!! Good thing I love that sculpt so much!
It looks really nice though, and the wiring is a really nice touch. It would be amazing is Hot Toys made Maul...Its not quite movie accurate (doesn't have that pleated front) and I definitely overpaid but I wanted a robe for him and was having a hard time locating one so I bought this one off of ebay. It was meant for a 1/6 statue but works just as well on the figure, its wired and stuff and looks good, if I hadn't broken his staff I'd be fine with what hes cost me so far all things considered. Heres a pic of the robe on the statue from the ebay auction...........
I feel you. Next to my other figures he looked like he was too small and missing something. The cloak makes him have more presence. Definitely a **** up on sideshow's part to not include oneYeah my most important concern was how the hood looked up, I didn't want that cone head look but I also didn't want him to look like he had a hoodie on, this one falls in place nicely. He is so small compared to my other figures I wanted the robe to sort of bulk him up a bit more.

Did you get that cloak for your Maul yet? You realize the SS Premium Formats are 1/4 scale, not 1/6. That cloak you pictured from the auction on ebay is for the 1/4 scale original Darth Maul SS premium Format figure.. It's probably going to be very oversized for your 1/6 SS Maul...
I've been contemplating buying that custom cloak for my original SS Darth Maul PF statue for years, but never wanted to pay the $65 for it since its not quite accurate without the front pleats...

That's weird, it arrived yesterday and it is indeed 1/6 scale as the auction states. Not sure why he's showing a 1/4 pic. Pheonix0A that's actually a pretty good idea.
