1/6 Sideshow Star Wars TIE Fighter Pilot 1/6 Scale Figure

I have a hunch SSC will make the TIE Pilot variant(s) some day too.

Pretty subtle differences between them though.

Odd the proto has no grey paint.

 

[Natedog]

They didn't all have grey/silver markings on the helmet, but they did all have silver/grey teeth. That's definitely missing. Easy fix, but again its not something we should have to do on a $200+ figure. Hopefully the production model will have that issue fixed.

I'm pretty sure there were some with all black teeth too but some more knowledgeable folks could chime in for that.

Here's one of the anovos helmets.

For some reason it jus looks like Marmit and medicom helmets got this one beat.

They had five different paint schemes. But the all black version had black teeth. The other four had silver teeth with different variations of silver. Like two silver lines down the front, silver Mohawk, silver side tanks, etc. but the all black had black teeth.

Probably an exclusive of some kind, but I agree.

There were the Stunt TIE pilots with simple black helmets, and then there were the Hero ones who have different markings or silver on helmets

So they are basically doing the "standard" version of the helmet, which I'm fine with. My bigger question is the boots and gloves. Seems to be way too much weathering on those.

How do you guys think the marmits measure up? Jus wondering somebody else's opinion

Yeah, I did side-by-side comparisons between the Marmit and Sideshow next to the TIE pilot costume promo shot and thought the Sideshow looked better in both helmet and other details.

It's a very tough one to judge because it's high gloss and black, obscuring a lot of details.

 

[Unclechopchop]

When I finally get my marmit, I'm probably going to gloss coat the helmet. That'll help! Haha

The Marmit is more of a ROTJ TIE Pilot, with different buttons/rockers on chestbox. And still looks great today.

I can see the Vader's Wingman version being an EX or something.

Got an e-mail from SS saying this is expected in Dec-Jan now. Thank God all of this stuff is coming out around Christmas. My family will really enjoy not getting any presents this year.

It's crazy that by Spring, we should have the OG Rebels crew. What's the date for C-3PO?

And still...I really want an ROTJ Luke and ROTS Anakin. I guess I'll never be satisfied
