Premium Format C-3PO & R2-D2 Premium Format Set

I have no idea if it is rumor or not. In my experience ex and regulars ship about the same time. I just think we'll see the regulars because the ex is still not listed on the "shipping soon" section which it would typically be included on.

Oh...that could be a bummer for me then. Was really looking forward to getting these next month

I agree, we usually see them listed together. Not a good sign imo after they had to cancel the 3PO lifesize bust because they couldn't get the plating right. The regs will be much more forgiving with the weathering hiding the defects in the plating although I'd be surprised if there weren't a few that have to go back because the weathering can't hide some flaws. This could be the first sign the EX is in QC trouble.

Is there a possibility that EX could be scrapped altogether? I mean there was no proto of the EX at last years SDCC just the regular! You know, i can see this happening and instead all those who ordered the Ex will recieve the regular instead oh...and an apology from SSC...

 

[darthviper107]

Maybe they want to cancel the EX and then sell it as a different release

 

[slynger]

I think they want to scrap the Exclusive just to rub in to comicbookguy!!

As scary as it sounds you could be right.
There should had been an update by now for sure.

 

[slynger]

I doubt the Ex gets scrapped. No sense in getting worked up over something we don't know about. Best thing is to wait and see if SS updates us on anything.

Yes, let's just eat one of these

If you had a choice which would you go for reg or ex? And why?

Reg all the way. To me, the droids were always on the move, planet to planet, space battle to space battle and should have the mud to show it. They were only clean once or twice in the OT. And those times we only saw them for a few seconds at the most.

Being that I'm an OT nut, the story more or less starts when they land on Tatooine in the escape pod and set out on their adventure. They belong together on one base with the weathering, no other way. Just my two cents. Others feel differently and I can totally respect that.

^^^^^^ Ditto

 

[JAWS]

^^^^^^^^^^ Ditto that Ditto.

 

[budafett]

Ditto JAWS ditto!

 

[furystorm]

Clean, because I'm a greedy flipper bastard!

 

[KingB]

So then after your getting the dirtys right?

Forgot fury, your gonna flip c3-P0 right?

 

[furystorm]

I don't have these fine droids on order. I'm unemployed!

I'm doing primarily the Mythos line now.

But if they release them separately, I'll jump on an R2.

Sorry to hear brother, mythos line is awesome. Can't wait to see if they do the droids in mythos as is shaping up to be an amazing looking line. Hopefully separately for your sake.

Both after securing the EX I then thought about the regular and began to see how appealing that one looked also. They both have equal qualities in my opinion so why not have both?

thats how I feel as well, the only gripe I have with it is that the droids should be the opposite way round, like the stills from the movie C3PO always seems to be on the right.

 

[KingB]

^^^^^Very small gripe but one none the less. These are so amazing I won't let that bother me in the least.
