Tamashii Soul of Chogokin C-3PO & R2-D2

Hmm, very wise, DrQ2... Perhaps I should pull the trigger! *goes over to SSC to check out pics*

Patience. Wait it out a bit if you're feeling unsure.
Of course, if you know you will get one no matter what anyone says, then there's no point in waiting.

At the very least, get a preorder in at a place that doesn't have an NRD or cancellation fee.

These won't be selling out in a hurry. The sensible thing would be to wait

Your one to talk!

Agreed, it's better to wait (thanks, Centurion). In regards to the NRD/cancellation fee, anyone aware of a place that is selling 3PO outside of SSC? I essentially buy from SSC or BBTS, and BBTS does not have 3PO for sale, at the moment. If anyone sees other online retailers selling 3PO, it'd be great if you'd post a link here. Thanks!

I like the nrd in so many ways. Best part is that when someone place a order in most cases the want it. Besides it only 10%.

SSC has it why not just order it from them. Big deal $40 nrd, makes the payment cheaper.

I never said I was doing the sensible thing I even paid sideshow's 400 bucks when I could have paid amiami's 345. Used flexipay for forced savings and have never used amiami for this big a deal, so cs reputation played its part in the choice.

$400 down Lejuan, nice, I think you're the only one.

I'll get one eventually.

No worries bro. I was just having fun.

I'm still on the fence, but I think this is the version I'll be getting.
There's something about a poseable robot and being built of metal that I like. I mean, what's more appropriate than using metal for a C3PO versus using plastic.

It's the same way I feel about all the Iron Man figures. They should be built from metal.

No worries at all, I was just suggesting that anyone who throws money at this at this point needs their head examined.

Sounds good Glenn, just go without buying 23 Hasbro figures and you'll afford one of them.

LOL! Ain't that the truth.

This 1/6 figure will cost about the same as multiple figures.

Best to order it now. There are times to think about item's but this one is a buyer. Also if you order it now your flex payment will be lower.

Why would anyone buy it now? Before they have more information? Is the Sideshow/Tamashii model perfectly scaled to the other Sideshow Collectibles Star Wars 1/6 figures? What exactly is articulated? Do the legs move? If so, how much?

There are far too many questions that haven't been answered before I would be willing to part with $400. I'm sure that I'm not alone.

I'd love to know if/when Sideshow Collectibles plans on releasing their own R2 and 3PO. They certainly won't be telling us that information any time soon now...

I totally agree with everything you have said
