Wow. Size looks better than their original. Is that from toyfair?

Nah. Looks like they have their weird samurai stuff in the background

Gah. The rivets! Way too prominent.

Here's the one they showed way back when. I believe it also had the rivets in more detailed shots.

There is rivets but no weathering, this was far back when it's still in prototype stages.

From 2012. Had rivets back then too.
Dome looks more accurate than the Hot Toys. But the weathering on that one is great. No way this is less than that one either.
Hmmm. Call me crazy but I think I'll stick with my SSC R2.
Why reissue C3PO when it's still available on Amazon from Amazon via Bluefin at the original retail?
To me, it's not an either or item, it's a get them all item. Sideshow 3PO with Sideshow R2 then Tamashii with Tamashii and Hot Toys with Hot Toys.

Pretty much the same here. SS R2 with yoda for Degobah scene, HT R2/3PO with ANH heroes, Tamashii R2/3PO because they are awesome!
The 12PM C3PO is freaking heavy, shipping is gonna cost a lot. And the price on Amazon is far higher than the original retail price, I could get it cheaper locally if it gets re-issued.
Shipping would be huge that's true, but believe it or not the $399.95 that Amazon has WAS actually the original retail regardless of whether or not it could have been had for less on clearance elsewhere. Here's Sideshows original page :https://www.sideshowtoy.com/collect...how-collectibles-and-tamashii-nations-901863/
Seeing that it did go on deep discount and is still currently available at original retail, a rerelease doesn't seem viable or if it is rereleased, I don't see them trying to reduce the MSRP when a licensed distributor is currently selling at the original MSRP.
