Looking at this photo I actually don't mind the left arm... Funny how a little twist of the head and a turn of the body can make a piece look so much better.
Yeah, I predicted the arm wouldn't look so bad if the head could turn. There's still something toyish about his legs, though.
Ditto. Wanted to like it and pre-order it, but now no rush indeed.

Yeah, this piece has a few good angles. One good one for sure. But I really needed all 180-degrees of the front to be good. I was planning on putting it into a case with glass on all sides except the back.

So, you holding out to see the LSF then?

Yes. Since there is no reason to jump into this PF at the moment, I'll wait to see 'if' Hot Toys has anything to offer as well as the LSF.
If the base was 1-2 inch(es) lower and the lightsaber blade is removable. I'd be all over this. For sure!

Same here. After picking up a few of the DC pieces I'm over the tall bases

Am I the only one excited for this piece? 
lol. I love tall bases, but I'm not restricted to displaying my pieces in Bestas. I can empathize with people who have limited display options though.

Was kinda holding out to serif XM might do Star Wars but gave in and just ordered this today.

I don't think XM will do Star Wars. Have there been rumours? I don't see that happening. I honestly don't think they can pull that off.

I thought there was. I thought they posted a picture with Star Wars pillows and stuff in there office and someone said that was them teasing it.
I see. They need to step up the portraits then. But if they can have Sosa do those for them, they could come out better than what we've seen before. Still, XM to me is about generic looking comicbook heroes/villains.

Yeah. XM's face sculpts have always been what they have lacked it. Seeing eric sosa's custom Magneto head though... The sky is the limit with that guy.
I would not agree with this. Aside from maybe human likenesses, they could give SS a run for their money.
From many aspects, sure. They have a better production and QC. But there is a huge difference between making a generic version of a superhero or villain and then a realistic and authentic head sculpt based on the actual looks of an actor. It would be something very different than what we've seen from XM so far.

How many actor likenesses have they even had to capture? Robert Downey Jr? 
Their quality absolutely annihilates Sideshow. It would be a dream come true for them to pick up the Star Wars license.

They have teased it a couple times, one time I asked in the wish list about star wars and they said something like *dreams come true* or somesuch ;p

Well, if XM has the Star Wars license, they better get a move on it right away and stop with the teasing.
