Yoda VCD Preview

[Customikey]

This does not appeal to me at all. I don't think it's a very good representation of Yoda, however much the sculptor may be revered.

I like the Hasbro AOTC better, and will wait for the Sideshow version. You just know the Sideshow sculptors are chomping at the bit to tackle Yoda.

I ordered the Yoda VCD today. Love it! It really looks great. I almost got two, that's how enthusiastic I'm about it. The price tag stoped me from doing it though. Will he be in scale with the SSC 12" figures? He's about 5", that should be the right size I think.

Looking at the pics that are up now at Sideshow, I think it looks quite a bit like Yoda appeared in ROTJ.

"When 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not!"

i hope all you guys talking trash about this VCD YODA arent be serious. this Yoda is from medicom, which is japan. medicom has nothing to do with sideshow,with the acception that sideshow is third party to their product. therefore medicom VCD YODA will not be or ever will be scaled to or made to go with yor sideshow 12" star wars figures. also,he doesnt look wierd, he is just japans representation of yoda, and i think he looks awesome and has personality......sorry for the rant.

...Japan can keep him.

 

[RoboDad]

...Japan can keep him.

Can I, too?

 

[Customikey]

Can I, too?

Yes you can. All may keep him that so desire him. You all have my blessing, so go forth and purchase your medicom VCD Yodas, prosper and sin no more!!!

yoda is supposed to be 2 ft 2 in tall...so maybe the 5" is almost right for scale...especially when you factor in the SS stand the 12inchers are on...of course the 12inchers are not exactly to scale either.

I preordered one of the Yoda VCDs but I may cancel him depending on money and how the final product looks. I am just afraid that we may not see Yoda for a few years and this one can hold me over.

 

[The Josh]

I ordered one.

 

[tomandshell]

I am undecided. He doesn't quite seem to go with the previous deformed Vader, Fett and troopers. I don't know where else I would put him. I'm going to have to think about this one...

 

[Memnoch]

Well a tad too big but I bit. As long as he is smaller than R2-D2 from Hasbro I really wont care.

Hrrm. Pass.

Thing is, I have a very large Yoda-focused collection that I've been slowly gathering over the past few years, and yet I have zero interest in this "Yoda." It's pretty sad when a cheap HASBRO figure could feature a better likeness than an expensive Medicom doll. Easy pass for me, which actually is upsetting. I had high hopes for this when it was first announced...until I saw these pictures of that weird green zombie thing. I don't know what it's supposed to be, but that ain't Yoda.

Pass for me too. He looks like my friend's 95 year old grandma. I know yoda's old, but this yoda looks old and decrepited. not a yoda I would want in any form.

 

[soloblaster]

Easy pass... one of the worst Yoda ever produced.

 

[Vader AL]

i like it, looks like i'm in the minority.

[galactiboy]

He looks pretty good, but is he articulated at all? He doesn't look like the other VCD figures, but maybe he can't be considered a RAH because he doesn't use the same base-body? I was under the impression he was more in 1/6 scale than the SD stuff.

Dark Shodow Collectibles now have the Yoda VCD up on their site for only $51. Thats about $9 cheaper than Sideshow's price.

If I read their cart right they only have 5 of them for preorder.

 

[EVILFACE]

Pass.

Yoda wasn't skinny or frail looking in any of the films.

Does he have the messed up eye like he had during his "death"

Does he have the messed up eye like he had during his "death"

Now I might buy that...
