I thought he looked GREAT and I can't wait until he's up for preorder. Here's some pics. +rep appreciated!

I'm admittedly not an expert on the helmet, but it doesn't look like a problem at all.

Rubio....you have the best pix for all these fig's...just amazing. I'll be getting 2, period!!!

His helmet might be a tad off, but this figure looks great overall. I will happily add this to the collection.

Definitely best pics of these figs I've seen. Camera somehow captured more even lighting. Thanks for posting.

Looking better and better

Kinda reminds me of the movie Scream.

Great looking figure and will be adding it to my collection.

My favorite SW figure from SS.

So the helmets off? There will always be something to complain about.

I need to see red lines and photoshopping to prove it.

And does the visor flip up? Seem to remember the Tomy one did that.

Looking at the picture above it looks like it might.

Figure looks fantastic, IMO. Only question is how many.

Minimum of 2..........

I'll take 2. I made the mistake of only getting one Snowie, I'll make sure I get 2 Scouts.

I thought he looked super cool in person. I wish they would have had second one actually sitting on the bike but oh well.
The bike itself seemed a bit wide and could use more weathering but still impressive.
I found the Hasbro set on preview night for $60 and snatched it up. I have him set up and he looks pretty cool even for the Hasbro one so the SSC set is going to be awesome, at least 10x cooler and probably 10x more expensive too.

Some really cool display options for those who buy multiple Troopers and speeder bike. I can only afford one though :/

Taun-taun going for $350 iirc, i'm having a hard time seeing this retailing under $300. It quite smaller than the beast but has a lot more pieces and must arguably be more complex to scult.

If this thing wasn't' designed on a computer and all the moulds made from that output (solid works, whatever), I'd not only be surprised, I'd be wondering whether Sideshow was out to lunch.

I was hoping the probe droid would be a good price comparison piece. That is a bit smaller but a bit more complex. E-web also, but that's simpler. Those are in the $150-250 range, but this won't be out for another year so maybe $300 or over is possible. If it is, I'll probably stick with my Hasbro. The Hasbro is a spectacular piece, if very slightly oversized.

If it is [over $300], I'll probably stick with my Hasbro.

So will a lot of people, and this is something Sideshow has to consider when pricing these products. If they can't make something that's going to sell, my guess is that they wouldn't make it.

Hm... Don't think I will be switching from my Hasbro scout/bike. To save ~ $400, the Hasbro will do just fine.
