SSC TPM Obi-Wan Kenobi Jedi Padawan

[nexus]

These are really looking good IMO. I've been wanting to see this level of quality from SS for years. Not quite HT quality but very close if the production matches the proto. Definitely looking forward to this in hand.

This figure looks great. It's hard to pass up. I may have to. Already have maul and an Obi would be sweet next to him. Need in hand pics. Stat!

My maul is waiting to duel.

Your Maul needs a sandwich.

Your Maul needs a sandwich.

Thanks. He's on a slim TT from the DX 02. He looks much better in hand. I may have to pack him a bag lunch. Lol

Just been notified that my first FLEX will come out tomorrow(ish) so this bad boy is finally taking steps towards my collection (or the Darth Maul part of it)!

Not that I love people who slam Medicom for the sake of it, but I don't like it when people defend Medicom just for the sake of it either. There are actually a few issues with that Maul, as pictured:

The difference in scale between Medicom and HT makes modding a Medi very tricky. The slim is the only HT body that will come close to accommodating the clothing from a Medi fig. Thing is, even the slim is too big for a Medi, so the clothes wind up a poor, tight fit. I've tried it a coupe times with poor results. That's one reason that Maul seems skinny. The other is that a slim is too scrawny for Maul, he'd need to be at least a narrow TT to look correct for the character.

If anyone knows of an amswer for the scale problem, I'd love to hear it - I have a Henry Jones Sr. fig that is just sitting around waiting for a better solution...

Perhaps the newer medicom bodies?
The only thing that was really wrong with the older medicom bodies was the glass joints. it' my understanding that the newer bodies use better plastic for these parts, and they don't snap as easily.

LOL!!!

Well, that IS how my Snow Bunny Padme looked...AND my "blockade runner" rebel trooper. I guess this would be carrying on tradition?

 

[Wolfwood723]

As long as the eyes look right on the EX head I'll be happy. Gonna have a set up with him against my medi Maul.
