Love the look of the figure, but would prefer they would put up the standard at the same time so we know what the timed edition includes. I think the basic head is the best, and will not use the others. Some of the other timed have been must haves, this not so much. May prefer standard.
Oh I am familiar with Sideshow's allocations and squeezing the retailers. I just meant the quick sell through at Timewalker shows the demand is there if they make figures people want instead of junk they have to blowout at 30% off, and offer free shipping. You sometimes have to be fast on some...
Timewalker went to waitlist already... didn't last 2 hours. Hot Toys needs to make more stuff people want. Hair looks good from some angles, others not so much. Fix the hair and make the boots leather and this is a 9/10.
I probably will sell it sooner than later. The red stripes on the cape are also rubber printed making it feel cheap. I don't remember the 1st one being like that. Just trying to inform others.
Just received my 2.0 TE today. I did not realize how rubbery this suit was gonna be. It bunches up unnaturally in the armpits, which I now see in the pics that everyone has posted. I sold off the pleathery 1st version for longevity concerns, and now worry about the rubber and hate the fit...
I am wondering if it's not as the prices rise Sideshow's profit margins are shrinking. At a certain point just being distributor for Hot Toys they are not seeing enough profit. Is it a risk reward situation where they have been stuck with slow moving product. Maybe they are negotiating their...
One of the 30% received and paid. Looking forward to this. I too am curious about the pants weathering. A while back I bought a body, shirt, and pants with the mid beard head from the 1st release to be able able to display all that comes with this figure.
Anyone have any luck removing some...
My shipper box came slightly crushed, but the inner box was fine. My wife said even she noticed the shipper on this one was kinda flimsy cardboard. Maybe keep that in mind if seeking this one out.
Ekia Hobby has 2 preorders available at a slightly higher price than what they originally listed them for. In for one at that price, not knowing how long the probable reissue will take.
Set looks very workable, and as expected. Suitable to fit in with the Sideshow Jabba. However, not liking the look of the recommended body, will have to find an alternative.
I bought the Beast Kingdom Deluxe but returned it to Amazon. For the other side of that one the stand is nice and solid. The figure looks pretty good....but it's a thin plastic, hollow figure. The joints were also somewhat of a floppy mess, and I can only imagine it won't be able to stand with...
I noticed the unmasked sculpts neck plug has a wider opening than the 3 masked scultps, so I just swapped the plug with the masked sculpt I wanted to use. Easiest swap, barely any glue holding them in place. Doing this allows the masked heads to sit a little lower without a chance of the masked...
