I've never been able to get that 2-pack neck piece out to swap the heads. Was hoping it'd be a looser fit on this one.
 
Does this have BBQ backdrop? And they need to include the fabric wrist guards they included with Snow Speeder Luke on all future Fett releases…the gap between hand and arm is unsightly for the premium prices these are.

Agreed, those little fabric pieces on Snowspeeder Luke are fantastic. One of those little details that seem so obvious now that they did it.
 
I mostly see people hating on them from both Luke and the various Mauls. It's nice to see they're appreciated sometimes, too.

Really? I guess I’ve never noticed that people don’t care for them. I personally think the pros outweigh the cons on them, but I do admit that they can be a little fiddly sometimes.

I would think if you got a little black stretch fabric, they’d be pretty easy to sew for Boba. Maybe I’ll give it a try.
 
Such can be the way of things when one lets a hobby get so serious they feel the need to monetize it. Whoosh...online status and clicks wisked away by the latest distribution mode. It'll be "Hello ladies and gentlemen and welcome to the late edition!"

Ah well...I still remember when the latest collecting news was what you heard in the parking lot of TRU or at the occasional convention.

Hey...as long as the figures we're interested in end up showing in our collections at some point, that's all that matters in the end.
 
I have this one on order, paid up, but haven’t heard anything about shipping yet. Funny though, I just had my two speeder bikes and troopers delivered and those boxes were substantial. Going to be hard to hide all this, hahahah!

Same story here. I realize I have a problem with instant gratification, but I really want my order to ship 😭
It’s just weird that the version without the throne and the exclusive throne version are shipping, but the regular throne version isn’t yet.

Got my replacement part which is the full figure body with clothes on and upper chest and back armor. Lmao

Sideshow did something similar when I had problems with their X-Wing Luke.

They sent me a complete second figure and told me to destroy the original. I put him out in the garden with a black sack covering him to prevent any flying shrapnel and hit him a few times with a hammer. Miracle of miracles the helmet popped apart but didn't actually break. I didn't have the heart to hit it again, so it looked broken when I photographed him. :monkey3

The replacement figure had a damaged suit, so they sent out a body wearing a new suit and told me to destroy the body and suit they'd just sent.

So I destroyed the original one again. :lol

When all was done I was able to assemble two complete figures. The only issues for one of them was a scuffed nose from the hammer, which was barely noticeable, and the ripped second suit which I could stitch back up.
 
Smuggle it in and bury the box behind the old ones. This is the way…
Sign up for UPS account and have it held at a UPS location. Say you’re going to get pizza (my UPS store is next to a pizza place), hide box in trunk until wife is out or in bed, then smuggle in and do as above. I’ve certainly never done this personally but I’ve heard things… 😂
 
Won it in a raffle?
😂🤣😂🤣
THAT is actually how I won my Sideshow Jabba....at Celebration 4 during the random Sideshow booth trivial pursuit quiz..

Space Slug was the answer 😉
Unfortunately,to get him on the plane back to Australia,I had to lose the box before boarding from LAX.
