Deadpool Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 (edited) So, my LCS has Sideshow's 1/6 scale Plo Koon for $75. I REALLY want to buy him, but I'm not sure if I want to pay that much. Can anyone with experience with the body he uses or the toy itself give me any advice or pros/cons? Also, if anyone would be willing to part with one for less (I know he originally retailed at around $55-$60) then let me know. Thanks! EDIT: I'm repurposing this thread. I want to buy a really nice toy. Something that's expensive and standout, while still being affordable. I'm thinking in the range of $50-$100. I want something that's fairly big in size. and will get a nice response from people who see it. I've considered Sideshow's Plo Koon, the Cloverfield toy, Sideshow's Obi Wan in Clone Armor, and some others. Any advice?

karamazov80 Posted January 3, 2009 Share Posted January 3, 2009 I don't know much about that figure. I'm guessing he has the "Buck" body, which I like just fine, but others have issue with. Whatever the case, you can save at least $20 if you do a bit of searching. . . http://cgi.ebay.com/Sideshow-Plo-Koon-12-F...93%3A1|294%3A50 Here is a review I just found.

Deadpool Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 Thanks for the auction link. That'll help a lot. You didn't happen to come by the exclusive version, did you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only one I see is $100. What does the exclusive come with, another light saber? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadpool Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 Just to wrap things up, I got Plo Koon today. He's pretty darn great. I do wish his hood had wire though... He looks like a klan member with it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also have a 12 inch Medicom Ghost Rider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 I don't know how much it is but if I were to get a really cool toy, I'd get the hot Toys Two-Face. Best. Toy. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadpool Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 Heh, thanks for the replies guys, but I already bought Plo Koon. Thanks though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Donster Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 That new DST/AA Darth Maul looks pretty cool DP, but can you make things easy for us and let us know what you are into? It might make things a little easier in narrowing things down for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might make things a little easier in narrowing things down for you Don, as I said before I already bought something but thatnks for the reply, and he does look really cool. I thought about it. Seriously, thanks for the help though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punisher Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Sorry to hi-jack Deadpool's thread, but has anybody seen the Sideshow Exclusive T-1000 for less than 100 dollars anywhere? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcastick Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Don't know how interested, but I saw that Target had the 25th Anniversary Optimus Prime for around $50 after Clearance. Looks like a nice piece of nostalgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a nice piece of nostalgia. I saw one the other day for $35. Still a tad too expensive, in my opinion. $25 is much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
