Well hello. I think my username gives away my location and obsession(I try to convince others it's just an "interest"...and "for my kids" that I may have one day but we all know the truth. ) I had heard of Sideshow while watching a clip on a convention last year, ComicCon probably, and loved the figures but then forgot about them. Well after visiting their website for the first time a few weeks ago I put in an order for 12" Obi-Wan and put myself on the wait-list for the 1:4 Vader and Obi-wan.(since have preodered Mace and will put myself on the wait list for PF Luke and Anakin 12") I must have been in good graces because the next day I was notified that Vader and Obi-Wan were converted into orders. I received the Vader yesterday and could not be happier. After recovering from "the fever" that plagued most of us during the Ep. III movie release I bought most of of the 3-4" figures(whatever the size is) but looking back realized the quality is, for the most part, terrible.(since when did Vader have Arnold S. muscles??) and was about to move past collecting until I happened upon SSC's figures. I am in my upper 20's and for me it about quality and about being able to display them (not married yet and it's my house so the lady friend can keep the pie whole shut about it ) so like everyone here, I love SSC's items. Although I did receive my PF Vader the "crotch plate"(for lack of a better name) had about half of it broken off when I opened the package so I have to pack it up and ship it back to SSC and wait probably about a month. This is why I will only buy direct because I know what I'm getting and I know I can send it back if something is wrong and since I will never sell my SSC's, in the long run, it is worth the extra money. Well "that's about all I've got to say about thaaat" and look forward to continue reading everyone thoughts and experiences via this grande ol' site. Take care!
