youbastards Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Yes, that is the first Star Wars KB statue. Up for preorder on BBTS right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted June 18, 2012 Author Share Posted June 18, 2012 Yes, KA. There were many female pilots. This is just Rogue Squadron alone. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rogue_Squadron Jaina deserved to be a commander. Jacen? Not so much. He was all Darth-y and political at that point. I'm talking about in the movies, though. Not extended universe and/or video games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 Hey, Star Wars was more progressive than I thought! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 How much do you think the Femme Fatales statues are worth? I'm not really super interested, but I love the Li'l Red Minimate so much it has made me want the state. And Hobby Search has her for $25. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10119441 Is that a good price, or do you think she's still not worth it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I'm not sure about the shipping on that site you linked, do you have to import from Japan? If so, guessing shipping won't be cheap. Here is one shipped for $25 (from the US) from an Amazon seller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 True. But I was making an order on HS anyways, so it wouldn't have been that much more shipping. I was just wondering peoples' opinions on the statue itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye's Junk Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) Damnit I'm a little disapointed with the Hawekeye Premium Format statue. His mask is a little off to me. the wings on the eyes seem too long. Everything else looks good. What do you guys think? /4/"]http://www.sideshowtoy.com/?page_id=4489&sku=3001011&ref=HZ1_062512_3001011#!prettyPhoto[product_gallery]/4/ Edited June 26, 2012 by Hawkeye's Junk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawkeye's Junk Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 preordered Ivy two days ago and they put up another one. Why are so many statues coming out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 (edited) Ooh, Hawkeye. You have to take pics when she comes in. She's so purdy. And I can relate. Bowen just did a Black Cat and they're doing another one already. Edited July 11, 2012 by TM2 Dinobot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karamazov80 Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 He's the exclusive. Paintwork is very good on this guy. And I agree with Shanester that this guy is gonna be pretty desirable down the road. He's gotta be DC's most popular villain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youbastards Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Looks great, Sam. Something with the Joker's face just didn't grab me though, I think it's too much teeth. I did pre-order the Poison Ivy PF... ...just call me "TM2youbastards"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM2 Dinobot Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 You have good taste. Tbh, my resolve would have crumbled if she was even vaguely TAS based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 I can't start picking up the lesser characters as PFs unless I'm a big fan. Just don't have the $$$ to start doing that. But the Ivy does look very nice. Would be awesome to have a full Batman rogue's gallery in that scale. As it stands, I would (will?) have a hard time passing on a Scarecrow or Two-Face.

Shanester Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 crappy phone pic of my new Stormtrooper 1/4 scale PF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karamazov80 Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 How do you like it Shane? I thought the pose there was a bit hum-drum at first, but. . .it's the Stormtrooper after all, so I'm not sure what else you could really do with the guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 K80, I really like Stormtroopers. I am not that guy who looks at a sculpt and finds a handful of inaccuracies like the width of the "teeth" or shade of blue on the "gills". The pose is almost cliche after all these years, but a classic none-the-less. There was a lot of breakage, right out of the gate on this piece, too. I had decided that I was not going to get one unless ordered directly from SSC only because if it was broken, I wanted to easily return it for another. When confronted with an offer almost too good to pass up, I caved and resigned myself to dealing with an insurance claim if he arrived damaged. Overall, it is a very nice piece. The sculpt is clean and everything seems to match up scale-wise (head is right size for body, etc.). Not much to the base as it resembles a floor of the Death Star. The mixed media consists of a cloth or lycra looking body suit with sculpted poly-stone armor. There is some metal on the canister of his belt (*see below) and maybe some metal on his blaster holster, but thats about it. For the money, I'd say its a nice piece and looks great next to my Phase I/II Clone PF. The head can be turned to look diferent directions (like the Phase I), but is otherwise static. *The canister on his belt has metal hooks for fitting it on the belt. On mine, the hooks have somewhat jagged edges and could easily damage his back torso armor. I covered them in some soft clear tape and avoided the issues. You can't see it once attached to the belt. I can take more pics with a decent camera if anyone has interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
