S.H. Figuarts Star Wars

Poor BS Luke will never get into Studio 54 without that gold wig.

But that actually is an AWESOME pic. Repped.

Man so many figuarts coming out and my Wallet is still dead from the DBZ purchases earlier this month. I'm happy we're getting Han and others, I do hope EP 3 Anakin gets announced at some point.

Damn the likeness on ford is so impressive. Especially with the right lighting these figures' faces can almost look real. Dunno what happened with chewie though, that promo shot surprised me.

Man I'd kill for a Phase 2 Rex, OT Yoda & Emperor and of course a new Vader in this line...

Id also love an Arena Padmé, Dooku and a few more PT Jedi.

You forget Jabba the Hutt, the proto was shown (but no pictures where taken of him )

I know, but I don't care about him. This is just my wishlist.

I hope that Bandai is moving beyond the movie sometime, it would be great to be completely independend from Hasbro in regards to more "obscure" characters, too. At the moment I am pretty sure we will get all the major characters and troops but it would be great to be able to get tv series characters like Ahsoka, characters from comics like Doctor Aphra and other characters from Bandai too and I wouldn't mind seeing them sooner rather than later.

A full complement of ESB Bounty Hunters would be cool. A Figuarts IG-88 would be really nice and he'd finally get the articulation he's so far been lacking. Bossk could be stellar too. Come to think of it, some Cantina aliens would be nice, a Hammerhead would rock.

Co-sign on a Figuarts Bossk. Need that in my life!

A set of Figuarts Bounty hunters would be so unbelievably awesome. It's top of my wanted list.

Tamashii are very conscious about what will sell and what wont. Sorry, but obscure, little known characters have little chance of being released, ever.

If Tamashii thinks a character wont sell, you simply wont see it, they are all about that profit.

I'm sure bounty hunters will sell, and would fit with Japanese cultural preferences.

 

[DrewYojimbo]

It's even unlikely a lot of main SW characters will be made by Tamashii but one can dream!

That's pretty much the case with any company, so no surprise there but looking at community votes, many people like and want (!) obscure characters. Before the manipulation in the last Hasbro vote started, Darth Talon led by over 20.000 votes, so if you want to sell stuff, you should look at what the people want. maybe Tamashii should make their own vote (that isn't as easy to manipulate) in the future. I also think the bounty hunters are a must down the road, who doesn't want IG-88, Bossk and the others?

@Drew
Oh I think we're going to see a lot more. It was a cautious start but they already increased the number of figures this year. I wouldn't be surprised if there are even more releases next year. I am pretty sure we will see all main characters until 2020.

 

[Big Deano]

Tamashii are on a whole other level with that though wolfstark; Hasbro may occasionally put out the odd "who on earth is that" type character, but Tamashii needs to be certain they wont lose money on it before they will even consider it.

Didn't see this posted yet. Can't wait to put these guys with the rest of the OT figures.

Han looks stunning. Chewie looks pretty good too, both will look great on my shelf!

I actually went with the bandai model kit stormtrooper. It seemed to get positive reviews and was super cheap, so I figured why not. Hope it's not too complicated to put together.

The Bandai model OT Stormtrooper still beats out the SH Figuarts version (and their new Rogue One version). It's largely due to the helmet (which is just beautiful), and the wonderful shine to the plastic. I'd argue the Bandai is the definitive 1/12 OT Trooper.
