Statue Sideshow Rancor statue

[ambasah]

it is absolutely not 1/6. If going all out for such an incredible piece...why in the world would you NOT do 1/6?

It really makes no sense.

Pure speculation, but assume they probably looked at the shipping costs, the likelihood of people have shelf space for a true 1/6 and figured at this size it was close enough to lure a lot of people in, while not being so large to keep people from purchasing due to space. It's about $400 overpriced in my opinion, so I'm out regardless but I'm one that would've bought at this scale or 1/6 if the price were a bit friendlier.

Building my own 1/6 version makes me realize that releasing a 1/6 version would be almost crazy... it?s gigantic.

I will I will hopefully be done printing this week. I won?t be able to work on it until March though.
Here is a picture where you can see the full height of the true scale 1/6 rancor. The top print is a failed one, but you can see how tall it?s gonna be.
Imagine that in a SSC shipping box [emoji28]:

Wow! No, not saying to rush through your project. More so that i look foward to what it will finally look like when you finish it.
But life gets busy and sometimes the toys have to wait!
I'll keep watching for updates though.

Yeah the box for this could even beat the IJ pursuit of the Ark statue that was much larger than an average suitcase!

That’s amazing! Are you going to be selling these?

 

[nearmint]

So how tall did it end up being?

 

[slikkerias]

It?s 84cm tall. I?m not going to print more of them since it takes such a long time.

Whoa Nelly! This. Is. Impressive.

 

[marsredv6]

I have to say although I'm over the moon to have ordered the sideshow rancor, this 1/6 scale your doing slikkerias is very impressive. I look forward to seeing it completed and on display.

[r3dPyramid]

I believe it is. I think the SSC one is impressive, beautiful and awesome, but it?s idealized and therefor loses some of the clunkyness and feel of the original.

When I compare your print with movie stills I'm not convinced it is more screen accurate. I think the proportions of at least the head are off.

It looks great none the less, and I'm sure it will look even more stunning when painted.

I also still love the Sideshow model shown so far, so I'm glad they are releasing it! Now if only they would show some more next to the recent one angle video...

You can?t really judge the proportions of the head from my photos since it looks way too big in photos. The phone just does that.
That said, the Sideshow one is fantastic as a more idealized version of the rancor. The Dewback and Tauntaun was the same and I love those. I?m in no way saying that mine is better than the SSC version. Of course it isn?t. It?s just different and has more of the puppet feel that the original had.
Mine is not completely screen accurate either, so it?s up to the individual whatever works for them. I just wanted an actual 1/6 scale rancor - and one that cost about 1/6 of the price of the SSC version.
So here is the result. Again, the photos f?s with the proportions a little bit.
