Sideshow Ralph McQuarrie Stormtrooper Statue

[wadeit0ut]

I'm very interested in this piece, but I'm worried it'll look too small in scale next to my 1/4 statues.

Can someone who has this piece take a side by side photo next to the SS Stormtrooper PF or Darth Vader PF or a similar 1/4 piece?

thanks in advance!

There are some MCQuarrie Fett pictures next to 1/4 figures in that thread. Here is one from TFH

Looks like the exclusive is now waitlisted.

I should get mine in the mail Saturday. I need to hurry up and order Boba before he gets waitlisted.

Glad to see these didn't totally flop. Pretty nice if you are into this sort of thing. I'm fine with just getting the three pieces but wouldn't mind a snowtrooper or R2 and 3PO if they decide to continue.

I was really hoping for a snowtrooper, but it's not looking like that will happen. Better to have at least three than nothing at all. I think all three turned out great.

All those over Luke?

Luke would be great sure but I'm not nearly as confident in Sideshow's ability to pull off a human statue even close to as well as they usually do robots and fully armored characters. Sadly their human paint apps still lag far behind.

Luckily, RMQ Luke is pretty well covered by breathing apparatus too!

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

True his breathing giddup makes the likeness/paint less likely to be an issue but the hair though.... Check out the 1/6 x wing figure if you haven't, the hair looks like a crudely sculpted chunk of wood. Who knows maybe they would get it right

if it could come close to the obiwan mythos I would be a happy camper.

Don't rub it in. Still angry with myself for not picking up the mythos kenobi, vader, and fett. Off the top of my head probably the only pieces I've passed on but still regret.

Don't do it.

 

[furystorm]

He's the only one I kept, and I'm really into streamlining and curating my collection down to bare essentials.

 

[wadeit0ut]

Not the best lighting since I just sat him here temporarily but;

Mine arrived later. But these look great. Can't wait to get Vader to complete the trio!

Congrats Slynger! I am now officially awaiting Vader as well. I was hoarding my reward points to pick him up but then the exclusive went waitlist I jumped on the list awhile ago and it recently converted. So I'm getting what I want but now I am paying full price Can't wait for it to show up so I can complete the display.....

Unless sideshow decides to do Luke or a Snowie
