Absolutely agree. Have many Sideshow figures I still love and would welcome any scum and villainy they would produce.

That was very cool of them. I got my Mythos Fett from them during Black Friday too. Great sale. Glad you were able to snag this at a good price!
This figure is the equivalent of "Two-Face" from that Seinfeld character. Looks good in some pics, not so good in others...
Video wasn't great quality so I have sharpened these a bit (right-click for huge versions).
Thanks for these TaliBane!

I don?t think a company can keep the SW 1/6 license by only releasing a few background characters every year. Unfortunately. I?d wish.
Maybe Disney have given the license solely to HT now

Loved that episode. Anytime I want to enjoy the un-helmeted Lando sculpt I’ll be taking him to the booth at the back of Monk’s for a little quality time.

Maybe the Bubble-boy would like to discuss the sculpt ?

Production pics up at Sideshow.
Thanks for the heads-up!
I really hope the non-helmet head can be widened a bit with boiling water. The stock head (seen on the left below) seems like it got narrowed during manufacture, giving it a bit of a Spengler from GB vertically stretched look. I widened it by 5% just to get an idea, maybe a bit too much - it probably only needs 3%, so hopefully the hot water trick will help.
It's still not a spot-on likeness, but the widening does give it a bit more roundness that helps.
Interesting, this hot water trick, is it simply putting the sculpt in hot water for a short amount of time?Thanks for the heads-up!

I believe so, changing it should be not that difficult but otherwise you could color it I guess?
I'm happy overall based on what I have seen in video and photos recently.
Yeah, just put the head in boiled water for maybe 2-3 minutes, get it really soft, then pull it out and press it wider with your fingers and put under cold water. It helps a bit, but that small amount might be enough with this head.
The shoulders of the body are also looking a bit too wide.

Not a bad attempt. If I ever decide to get their Jabba I?d add this

Wow, that looks like a super testosterone Lando, all jacked and sculpted the way Arnold would like him. He-Man.
I don’t know who would sculpt that or approve of that and look at it and say “yep, that’s Billy D. for sure”. I just don’t understand Sideshow.
Yeah for me the sculpt looks far too caricaturish no matter what you try to do with it.
Charge from sideshow 12/16 just received email
Cool! Finally some more in hand pics soon then.
