The Indy Premium Format Figure Countdown/Discussion Thread

[My Lord]

I was thinking about getting Fett since it' sucha cheap PF, I don't see why he doesn't go for higher but was thinking on how the likeness was on the Fett PF?

The main reason people generally don't like Fett is the helmet shape is wrong, and he is made out of plastic instead of polystone. Also, the Exclusive "sugar cookie" Bantha Skull plate thing is lame.

Those things don't really bother me, the detail and weathering on the jetpack is amazing. If you can get him cheap I say go for it.

If you can't look at the Fett helmet and tell what is wrong with it (I can't) then I think you'll like the PF. Being plastic is a criticism many have, but looking at it you can't tell it's any less polystone than Vader. I say go for it.

I can't even tell that it's shape wrong but I'm not one for it to be exactly movie quality either, if it's damn near close it's good enough for me... As long as it's not like cheapy feeling and poor paint I'm usually a thumbs up kind of guy!!!

 

[Agent0028]

I should say one complaint I do have about the Fett PF is that the knee pads are loose and I can't tell where the heck his knees should be to keep them in place. Also his left wrist gauntlet is very loose. But I only think about that when I dust (which I just finished which is what reminded me of it.)

I know I'm late to the party but this PF is absolutely stunning! My only complaint was trying to get the pistol in the holster. In addition, my holster came apart and I had to re-glue it. Well the only other minor complaint was it was a little tight getting the whip into his hand. That's not so much a problem but more of a worry as I was scared his fingers would break trying to get it in.

Wow he's really that tight of fit, is there any other place to place his gun besides the holster?

Mesa had a good tutorial for getting his whip in his hand. If you bring it under horizontally, slip it between his fingers and into his hand and then rotate it down into its proper position, you don't have to worry about anything breaking.

It was Michael Crawford who said it and you can read about it in the review on his website...


that sounded rude but it wasn't meant to be... just no other way to say it.

Oh, I guess I could have given you the link... I just didn't want to put in the effort. God I should just stay silent. It works better with my lazy ways.

It wasn't an huge problem since it's an easy fix with some crazy glue but it is a slight annoyance none the less.

 

[Skiman]

I got his whip in with no probs last night after reading the tutorial hints last night, I didn't even try with the gun because he's going back into the box until I get shelves!

Well, do you have your receipt?? Just go back to play and give them your order info. If worse comes to worse, you can just file a chargeback to your credit card (assuming you paid with you CC ) Hope that helps

 

[Skiman]

If it's UPS they reuse numbers, so it might not be tracking it correctly... I've had that happen before.
