I just assume they had single joint elbows to unload lol


But seriously, I do appreciate the upgraded and new body. I hope it lasts, I’m excited to pose this

Also, I’d like to add, my ganja bowl is silicone, and I throw that in the freezer for a few hours to clean it. I’m pretty sure it’s not high grade, but if this body is anything like that silicone, it should hold up pretty good, no?

I don’t know much about silicone. Just discovered it lol
 
Mine came today from Toys Wonderland. Ordered on 2nd March and got here in 5 days only. Impressed with that turnaround.

Probably the fabric wrap around the elbows are fixed and are too tight
I think that's probably it. Looking back at Reagan's review video, he actually can push the elbows past 90° - which would not be possible with a true single joint - but they bounce back to 90° when pressure is no longer applied.

I wonder whats up with sideshow saying low stock remaining for the past week or so.

Maybe more FOMO tactics? It went "low stock" like 2 days before the figure released in HK. My guess is SS knew this was releasing and put it on low stock so people would feel obligated to buy it after seeing blogger pics, and that's why its been sitting on low stock forever now, as its not actually low stock. I guess well just have to wait and see if it goes to waitlist or goes in stock.

I got FOMO personally but didn't buy from Sideshow and avoided the tax and BS shipping I would've been charged by them, got it for $315 shipped. With rising figure prices, SS making their own shipping prices (ridiculously high), and them being stingy with giving out rewards I'm likely done with their ****** games and will be buying elsewhere.
 
I want to hold off until the Ahsoka show, but these photos are really impressive, must remind myself I want to buy 230 more clone troopers and hold off.
I feel the same way. It’s going to be tough to resist, but I have about 20 figures I need to order right now between Star Wars and DC. This might be one to skip because we will definitely get a new one from her show. Phenomenal figure though, if there weren’t so many others to get, I’d be all in.

I'm with you, I have to finish paying off Mythos Vader, Appo and BARC start their payments this month, and still expecting Mando Luke, Jesse, B1 Battle Droids and Clone Pilot in the next 2-3 months.

I still want to pick up Hoth Luke, ROTJ Biker Scout and Bo too.

So I'm going to hold off and try to be strong. Try being the key word.

It’s wild. I had a Mercari prepaid label for a 7 Pound hot toy, going from coast to coast, only cost the buyer 13$ for ups.


But sideshow charges 34$ for the same ****, I don’t understand how they get such bad prices from ups. Maybe they pocket half of it 🤷‍♂️

Ive had the same happen multiple times, I use PirateShip and its always under $15 anywhere in the US

They probably pocket like 90% of the shipping cost, considering they ship hundreds of items a day and likely have a vendor deal with UPS and FedEx.

Of course they pocket half the money. Sideshow charges full MSRP, gouges on shipping and taxes, and then gives a pittance of Reward Points that people ohh and aww over like it’s something special, when there are cheaper options out there right off the bat. The Reward Points are like a placebo for folks not realizing they are getting ripped off on the front end.
