SSC TPM Obi-Wan Kenobi Jedi Padawan

Maybe they should have made the light up saber the ex and have the extra head as the regular!

Prices are getting too silly. Pass for me. I'll stick with my custom

Indiana Nicholson?

Nah.. looks ok.

Well he does look a bit like Christian Slater.

 

[Canadian_Wolverine]

Still I must pick this one up even at these new price points my poor poor walltet.

I wonder if the light-up hand has any articulation. Kind of looks like a separate piece on the forearm (at least it's painted diffrently). I could see side-to-side rotation being possible.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Everyone's opinion on this figure is subjective...I think it looks good and that's all that matters!

 

[jedibear]

Having a longer look at the gallery...I'm pretty impressed with the proto there. Hopefully the textiles will be the same, the belt will stay that wide, the boots will maintain that well-done distressed wash and the sculpts (which actually look really good) won't get lost in bad paint during production.

I can see this one parted out and selling at a brisk pace so folks can "upgrade" their AOTC version....I'm thinking about the boots and the belt at least. We'll see how that light-up feature plays out.

Wonder what the delivery date's gonna be? Jan or March of next year?

And back to light-up or not, I think it's pretty cool Sideshow is trying something different with the saber. May not be perfect but the light looks more consistant end-to-end than Medicom's version. They should get some credit for trying to improve the overall look, IMO, instead of dissed because some people can't be bothered to use the feature.

Good post. This is important, they've made the effort.

Don't use the light up feature, simple as that. They did provide us with both options.

I can see Ewan...passive head is when he and Qui arrive on the Trade Fed ship...aggressive head is Vs Battle droids in the hanger on Naboo or Vs Maul....

Haters gonna HATE.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I can see Ewan...I can see Ewan...

Sorry i should've mentioned this as well, if you want to the regular pics just delete the No. 1 at the end of the product code and reset the press code to 01 and then you can switch through the regular pics.

So with Obi Wan, where the product code for the exclusive is 1000281, the product code for the regular will be 100028 and if you bookmark the link from a few pages back you can use the product code for any SSC product and it will take you to High-Res images of that product

You can also use this to find a regular pieces preorder page when SSC only puts up an exclusive piece for preorder, just delete the No. 1 at the end of the product code in the address bar and it will take you to the preorder page for the regular edition which otherwise you won't see until the exclusives are sold out or waitlisted.

Here ya go:

thanks fellas!

after looking at the hi-res pics, I'm really impressed with the skin texture on the headsculpt and the hands. paint work is great as well so here's hoping the paint is somewhat close to that in production.

Is the PPO happening anytime soon?

Preorder will be linked in the newsletter.

Thanks!

Would have been a much better option for me. Very interested in the second head, i'll have to go the Sideshow direct route...which is a very expensive one for overseas fans.

 

[ProgMatinee]

Glad to see this finally be released. Kind of disappointed by it though. Not a good enough sculpt (either of them) to be the test figure for what is sure to be yet another price increase.

 

[Platty]

The pre-order is up, just click on the "upcoming product" image of obi wan on the home page

EX ordered

EST. Ship date of Feb 2013, not bad!

 

[lerath666]

ordered. Ex is already sold out.

that went fast

 

[Wor-Gar]

Ordered NOT.

Headsculpt is very good, just looks about as much like Ewan as HT Indy looks like Ford. It's there, somewhat. Anyway, I don't need this version of a character I have three other figures of.

Not yet. Just checked.
