SS ROTS Yoda Jedi Master Figure

[joda76]

Nope. Factory. Mine wasn't painted as ham-handed as some of them. He could still use it though.

And no, you shouldn't have. His repaints were great.

Yea from a distance it looks pretty good.

Nice pics guys. Mine arrives tomorrow too. Should be a good day.

Signed up for the contest, hope I win. ^_^

Pictures!

I really like him. He has a great feel, the paint is better than expected for the most part, I love the poseability and the wire cloak/rag is awesome too.

Now for the bummers:

As you can see above, the head I have on is the passive head. Here's the other one...

So two heads, same face, one has eyes looking up for some reason...

Also, both heads have these scratches on top, a little hard to see in the photos but looks like slippery hands while sculpting the hair... So... Two heads going back lol

Finally, there is a lot of flaking on the pegs for the hands and legs when I switch them out.

Other than those issues, so far I'm really happy! Don't think I'll do anything with the chairs though.

Now question... Depending on how much sideshow would charge me to keep the wrong head after they send a replacement, would anyone want to take the one with the eyes looking up?

Mine arrives tomorrow. Really looking forward to having him join Bespin Luke. Also one of the rare packages from SS I don't have to be there to sign for.

Thanks for posting pics man.

Posebility looks cool, as does the cloak.
Thats where it ends however.

This looks like the old SS yoda? I don't understand what you mean when you say both heads have the same face with different eyes?

And those QC problems are inexcusable in this day and age.

And just to quote the very first image in this thread again.. I mean really?

It does not look like its worth $100.00. The face sculpt seems really blah to me.

Despite the QC complaints I am really excited about this figure. I have two green guys arriving thursday... Hulk and Yoda!

 

[galactiboy]

Mine will be here on Wednesday. Looks decent from the photos, but not a homerun like Bossk.

 

[Rook]

Tomorrow.

Gonna pose with Gree, but eventually may end up stealing Rook's pose.

My poses are free to all.

I think the neutral expression is an upgrade over the previous SS Yoda:

New:

There's just a lot more Yoda there. Thinner face too.

 

[joda76]

I agree Flosi, it does look better.

 

[FLOSI]

I like the way his face isn't as balanced as the first sculpt. It looks way more natural.

 

[DarthTrafford]

If he's shipping already why is he still listed as a pre-order on the Sideshow site?

I mean that that both heads have the same expression. Neutral. One head is supposed to have a downturned mouth and furrowed brow for the serious/angry head. I didn't get that. I need to go back and watch a Review or two to see if everyone's are like this and SS just didn't deliver on the promised head sculpt or if I just got one wrong head.

What's wierd is that the eyes are painted differently even thi the expressions on the face are identical.

No, they gave you two of the same sculpt, 100% certain of it. Just call them.

Oh I emailed the, first thing this morning. Trying to get two replacement heads, one to replace the scratch and one so I actually get the second "fierce" head.

 

[jedijim3002]

They sent me two of the same right cane hand instead of a right light saber hand. Gotta call them.

 

[joda76]

Man wth Sideshow. Nice pic Jim.

 

[Keenan]

Got my Yoda today. I've got the optional head on mine...
