This is up for preorder. $1550 and released in November-February. Less than a year wait time is great! I'm probably buying this, looks very nice in the pics. Also happy to see it's Fiberglass. On the negative side the base does look a little cheap.
Looks even better in the in-person photos. The promo shots did not do a good job capturing the actual finish.
If Sideshow can actually deliver with this, it might be the best representation of Din Djarin you can buy.
I had no idea this piece was revealed prior to Celebration so walking towards the Sideshow booth, I could already see this piece from a distance and boy was I getting excited. I have to admit, in person the tilt bothered me. I actually asked one of the exhibitors if it was intentional or was the bust placed on the stand crooked. After staring at it for a while with the boba fett bust behind it, I'd preferred a jetpack. But I understand the choice of the rifle to distinguish it. It also allowed for the ammo belt which is a nice detail. I also loved the mudhorn signet. It would be great addition to anyone's collection but I'll probably hold out for another rendition or an updated boba fett life size bust with the new clean suit.
I'd say its pretty close but not perfect. In low light situations, I can see this is accurate to the show. But there were outdoor scenes in the show that the beskar seemed shinier almost "chrome" like. The photos above are pretty accurate as to how it looked in person. That is with a lot of interior lights in the exhibit hall on it. So it is not a "shiny" chrome paint but it is a step up from the old iron man mark II life size bust and silver surfer comiquette that many went to get custom chrome painted to make it shinier. With that said I would have liked it to be a tad bit shinier especially when the light hits it on certain angles.How did you feel about the chrome paint in person, accurate to the show or not?
Another paint application disappointment.
Their display at Celebration was more reflective/chrome than the one their delivering. It's very matte.Whoever complains about the paint - What is the problem with it? I don't see it.
The way he pronounces "Din Dejarrin" says it all really
