1/6 Hot Toys -TMS102 - The Clone Wars: Darth Sidious

[eriqui]

Love this pose. Will pretty much leave him like this from the moment I get him in hand.

This figure is reminding me of how season 7 just picks up with Maul back in charge of Mandalore after getting clobbered by Sidious in season 5, with no explanation of how he returned if you had not read a Dark Horse comic from a decade ago.

Anyway, I think it looks similar enough to ROTS that it would pair well with AOTC Yoda for a senate fight scene.

If they make this guy they'll have my interest.

I dunno guys, I know PT fans are desperate and ravenous for their trilogy to get represented....

But this looks terrible. That sculpt is goody looking, the tailoring is a hot mess, the added effects look cheesy....

I felt the same about both Obi and especially Qui Gon....maybe PT fans are more forgiving, they must be to like those films/stories so much.

Hoping for A Palp Emperor 2 packlike sideshow did years ago.

I mean this is fine but shame a missed opportunity.

Oh my....I am sooooo happy they finally did it

 

[loki2371]

Damn, this looks sweet..

Didnt expect to wake up and see this at all today. I too would prefer a ROTS version, but not sure if I can pass this up and wait. This is the reason I skipped the Emperor figure way back when. I only want one palps and I want the bad ass lightsaber wielding one on my shelf, not the feeble old cane walking ROTJ one.

I have the old SS 2pk that I never opened and almost sold it a few times. Wonder how those old clothes would hold up in a swap...

terrible likeness

No worries. This version is coming from Sideshow with loose joints and all.

Always nice to see Frank “the Senate” Palpatine.

One of the best scenes in all of SW tbh. Don’t think Sidious had yellow eyes tho, as some have mentioned. I will always remember this robe from this scene.

 

[FlyAndFight]

I think that it looks pretty good but it is an easy pass for me.

I initially thought that it included two head sculpts but the photos were just to show off the PERs.

I don't recall yellow eyes in this scene either. But I agree, I remember when this episode first came out. I was in awe. Its sooooo great. I really hope they do Savage.

 

[IronPatriotFTW]

I’m happy this is being made

 

[Chopper Face]

And I thought I’d be broke after Star Wars day! Looks like I’m safe for now.
It’s a cool Sideous and all but not an iteration I need just like that Fox.
It’s ROTS Sideous or bust for me.
There are many Clone Wars specific characters I’d love to own but the live action characters in their TCW outfits don’t quite resonate with me.
Wake me up when Ventress and Savage Oppress drop.

 

[Creighton]

I like it!
If only I had

"unlimited spending!"

 

[Nyhargo Dirge]

But, uh, is this it? Surely not…

Not to be an ingrate but I expected more than a salad for dinner

YES, one of my all time favorite SW moments. Sidious belting out, "You are...a RIVAL!" made sitting through all the boring Clone War episodes worth it.

 

[Bo Shrek]

man I HATE the new stands!!

While the red cloak does look amazing what a dumb hybrid.
