...I have a funny felling they will become sought after later down the road as more items comeout that pair up with them.

That may be. But I think it is equally possible that these will be selling on ebay for $20 after a little season.

I can't say that they are one of the items I can't wait to have, but they are still wanted by me. They are not some must have items but still think they will look great and no matter how much they are not liked I have a funny felling they will become sought after later down the road as more items comeout that pair up with them.

I feel the same. I don't get all the trashing of these items and the choice they're made. It really appears like some folks are just upset because some character they wanted didn't get made. Folks really need to just chill out a bit. Your favorite charcter will get made I'm pretty sure especially since we've seen Jabba get made, Salacious, and now Bubo. SS has shown they're willing to go all over the SW Universe.

I think is pretty safe to say if your on the wait list for these, you will get them. But then you would need to ask yourself, why are you on the wait list for this crap.

Darth Maul 10/10
Bib Fortuna 10/10
Endor Staff 0/10

I think Sideshow were taking the piss when they announced these. I cannot believe how wrong they could be in their choice. My advise is if you really really want these, wait. Because this could well be the first Star Wars figures to be sold off on the cheap. These will not sell out. And these are not selling well at all. Overseas sales are basically just not happening. Domestic sales (USA) are disappointing. SS will try and rush these out ASAP because the longer they leave it, the more orders are getting cancelled. Sideshow has messed up with this release, and they know it!!

So because they are characters YOU don't like, they are crap figures?

Man, you are soooooo amazing.

Thanks. A lot of people call me amazing.

It's nothing to do with liking the character. I don't particually like the Kit Fisto character but I thought the figure was amazing. It's to do with the fact they are crap figures. The are no-bodies. If Sideshow relased one this early, people would have probably swallowed it. If they done two, maybe less would have gone for them, but the fact they done three no-bodies this early in the line, is IMO taking the piss. Had they gone for soliders that we actually saw battle in the movie, then they may have got away with it, but they went for characters that at the hight of there action, were walking through a forest.

Yes, I standby what I said, they are CRAP figures. You only have to read the amount of people who have cancelled, to know people dont carre about them. These will struggle to sell, and will be sold off cheap....... Only time will tell for sure, but if pre-orders are anything to go by (excluding Sideshows SOLD OUT banner, which they won't be upon release) these figures will be around for a very long time.
 
Hoth Troopers, X-Wing Pilots, even Stormtroopers, Biker Scouts, ATAT Drivers are all nameless faceless no bodies.

Wanna try again?
 
So because you and a few folks on message boards don't like them they're crap? What about the folks on the message boards that do like them? You realize that we freaks are maybe 1-2% at the very MOST of their sales. I would say these will do well enough to be just another figure in the line.

In your opinion their crap. However, just as when I like something it's just an opinion. Neither makes them that.

We got a lot of that going on around here.
Where?

Ventress is not a figure I want or will get. Looks a cool figure, not my thing though. Doesn't mean I think its crap.

Because someone doesn't like something, doesn't mean they think its crap.

But then if anyone has a negative to say about a Sideshow product it's
blasphemy in your eyes. :devil
 
I didn't say that did I. That's what a select few assume but I'm done trying to explain that's not the case. Some people are just to shallow in the head to understand. So it's pointless and honestly it kind of kills my fun being here.

People can not like something and not think it's crap I agree. However, I've seen you word it in this thread that you think the Endor's are crap. I've seen 2 people say the SSW pieces are crap because they don't like them. I've seen people say other pieces where crap because they don't like them. There are ways to say you don't like something without having to say you think it's crap.

One slight difference, they actually took part in the film. Hoth Troopers, X Wing Pilots, even Stormtroopers were seen battling. The may be faceless, but they are characters that people know.

Sotrmtroopers have massive screen time, as do most of the other you mentioned. These 3 had about 10 seconds between them, and I think only one is actually based on a character from the film. The other two could be anyone. Thats why I think they are crap. Thats why people are cancelling. Thats why they aren't selling.

Oh, is there a super dooper Special Special Edition of Return of the Jedi that has no Endor Troopers?

Yeah, but the Endor Troopers where in the movie. So should they have never made Endor Troopers? What cracks me up about SW fans is that they're some of the most ungrateful fans ever. Unless a company does exactly what they want they storm around. It's ok to make figures not everyone is gonna like. Folks can just pass on them and move on. Unless you're gonna be a completist then it shouldn't be a worry.
 
Well Homer, some would say that releasing Stormies or Hoth Rebels right off the bat may take the piss outta this line. I would prefer to get the lesser appreciated figs outta the way, work out the kinks in the line, and then jump right into the meatier possibilities.

Besides you make an awful lot of assumption based on what you read on boards. I wouldn't take what people say here as definitively whats actually going on from Sideshow's end.

Me thinks you protest too much. :D

Fans scream for figures of characters from the Cantina sceen that were on the screen for a fraction of a second.

So what is the problem? They are characters YOU did not want.
