Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

The wait for this is killing me...almost as much as the shipping. 80 dollars to ship to UK then over another 200 in vat and duty.
This will be the last PF I buy.

My goodness!
I don't blame you for calling it quits.

I think a few here were saying that some parts felt plastic.

Vast improvement over their first ROTJ Fett.

longing for an review.

Everything is an improvement and I REALLY REALLY wanted to love this new one. Buuut, the horrible chest armor/vest is all I can stare at. That alone makes me feel the original has a better display look to it. It's nice having both but if I ever had to get rid of one, this V2 would be the first one I'd get rid of.

Jay, those legs look awfully skinny! Is it just the angle or do they look that bad in person? I know MYC said they were a bit thin as well...

Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

to me.. the skinny legs bother me the most on the new one.. but yeah.. if on the old one they would fix the helmet.. the old one makes a better appearance ... sadly

What's wrong with the old one's helmet? I'm not too familiar with the old piece.

Yeah, they're quite skinny in person. Also kinda bummed out about that.

Here's the link to my Gallery.

Hope you don’t mind aa909, used your pic for a comparison shot.

Proper paint apps could of made this an epic peice with this pose.

Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

WOW :eek ! That's night & day difference. Did they fire the painter?

You can always get the guy who painted the Proto if you want it to look that bad. I'm strongly considering it since he only lives an hour away from me

Everything said here is exactly why I didn't get this piece. I have the 1st version, & love it, & would've ordered the new one, cause I like pose & updated paint apps.... but then they screwed up the chest armor (which stands out like naked chick in a window) - it's all I would see! & now that you guys are pointing it out, the skinny legs thing?
Maybe the v3 will get everything right.

Damn, the paint apps look really good in this shot, BUT... WTF? He's soooo skinny overall? The legs are really bad, but also his chest looks concave and his left arm looks skinny as hell with the material all bunched up
I also can't get past the gap between the chest armor and the neck.
The helmet does look a million times better than the original, though.

I thought Fett in real life was super skinny though.

Or they can just fix the helmet on the original one and give it the V2 paintjob and we I'd be happy

Yeah, a skinny 6ft man. Proportion-wise, The PF looks nothing like your photo.

Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

All right sheesh sorry. Only pointed out that he was very thin. Not trying to get into details and suit accuracy.

Don't sweat it. We're just discussing civilly, right?

I guess Boba was too cheap to use his bounty money on dry cleaning. His pant pouches and shins are filthy!

Yikes... That does look bad.. But that is the first pic that I thought it really looked bad in... But man that is bad
