Statue SSC Shaak Ti vs General Grievous - Hunt for the Jedi Diorama

[Darth Cruel]

But...as far as I can tell, he never hunted them...he just killed them when they hunted him...right?

it depends on which "version" of grievous we're talking about.

In the original (and in my opinion best) clone wars series, he was a badass who hunted and killed them for sport. He was almost invincible.

but in the movie, he sucked just some wimp doorstep for the jedi to plow through.

Yeah, Lucas really eviserated the character.

Still, he and one MagnaGuard might be the only exceptions I make to my no PT rule... will just depend if his excellent design can overcome the memory of his lousy characterization in ROTS.

True, but that was due to what happened to him in the original Clone Wars series. In the final, or close to final, episode Mace Windu crushed his chest armor which caused him to be severely injured and was also why he was coughing in the movie. Then, the new Clone Wars series came out and kinda messed all of that up. He was unstoppable in the original series.

No, this is that other item that pops up on Sideshow's site when searching for Shaak Ti PF.

 

[ambasah]

This will be in stock forever given the ridiculous price and lame head sculpt.

I will bite when I score it for half price.

I just got a tweet from ss saying there are <20 pieces left, which begs the question who on earth bought this, between the horrible sculpt (Shaak ti looks like a spider), horrible paint, and the bad connection points..even their product photos look unbelievably bad.

I wouldn't even pay shipping for this garbage if ss give it to me for free...

 

[cstojano]

Is there no actual production image for this piece yet? So they sold 380 of these and not one to a member here to actually review...

edit: so their FB post actually says there are less than 20 in stock NOT less than 20 left. Maybe they had an initial order that is running out.

Probably the same for me. Grievous looks good, but the Shaak Ti pose and head connection ruins this.

yes an initial order of 20

Anybody get their Shaak Ti vs General Grievous? I would love to see pics and hear their thoughts on the diorama. Thinking about ordering it, but not sure about Shaak Ti.

 

[cstojano]

I'd like to see a pic as well BUT I think we all know its a very bad plan to have this piece competing against the PF.

 

[ambasah]

Save your money. You will be able to find this for much less in due time.

I was thinking the same thing about the PF. The PF looks amazing.

Bronze version came and went. Edition size of 25. I've always preferred the faux-bronze look to these.

 

[JonZ]

I picked one up last night when they went up for order. The bronze paint seems to kind of take away the blank stare of Shaak Ti and since I didn't have anything in my collection with Grievous in it, it was a win win. I'll post some pics up when it arrives.

 

[JonZ]

Got my Faux Bronze Greivous vs Shaak Ti Statue in today and it looks awesome! The bronze paint job makes the Shaak Ti portrait look better in my opinion and seems to take away that blank stare look that she has in the painted version. I still think they could have given her a better expression...especially since she's fighting such a powerful foe. Anyways...without further delay, here is #18 of 25 and I'm sorry a couple of the pics are a little blurry

A few more....
