Sideshow 1/6 C-3PO

Hopefully the dock slow down will be over by November, so we won't have to wait even longer!

You didn't get the notice that this was pushed out to March 2016?

Why doesn't the SSC Yoda figure look like that.

Why doesn't the Hot Toys Luke?

Why can't they do this in 1/6?

I found my Hasbro Yoda the day. I went searching after someone posted a photo of one somewhere here. Still a nice little figure for what it was.

I got rid of most of the Kenner/Hasbro 12" figures, but kept a few that had potential, such as the Gamorrean, Jawa and Zuckuss. I also kept R5-D4, but seeing the vastly improved scale of Sideshow's Artoo, I don't think he's going to be much use any more.

Because they can't do it in 1:1.

Touche.

That thing looks ****ing terrible - strike it from the record.

 

[TaliBane]

Toupee.

Fixed.

I like how the crew member who rushes in has the same hairline as Palps.

Tough crowd. I'm pretty sure if most people saw that as a 1:6 figure they'd be impressed. Maybe not.

 

[Pixelpiper]

I like the 1:1 in that photo.

Pair that thing up with a movie still, then assess things.

This doesn't have to do with the figure, but wondered if anyone noticed this. In ANH when they first head into Mos Eiseley, a Jawa approaches the landspeeder and C-3PO says he can't stand Jawas--"disgusting little creatures."
This scene is right on the heels of them basically having a funeral pyre for dead Jawas slaughtered by sandtroopers tracking down C-3PO and R2. What a callous prick!

Never even picked up on that & I've easily seen the movie 100 or more. lol C3PO says a lot of insensitive or seemingly rude things though, so it's just a programming issue I guess?!?

 

[TonTon]

I just got R2 so I threw on the movie and noticed that for the first time. Programming could definitely account for it. He's a jerk to R2 throughout the movies. That's why it's so fun to see Han and company annoyed by him all the time.

He's British.

Well, I mean they DID capture him and sell him off as a slave...so there's that.
