Buy.
Buy!
Pass. I couldn't justify how much he would cost. I've decided I have to pass on the Biker Scout, and hope I can find him cheaper on Mandarake (yeah right) or they do a bike-less release.

Hopefully AOTC Obi-Wan implies an eventual Jango Fett or Count Duuko release.

Does it at least include an alternate?

Nope, that’s the cape. It's pretty obvious that they tried to have a cloth cape which is red on the inside and white on the outside and it worked for a test-shot, but for production they wanted to make it cheap so now the colors blend. And since they manipulated the official pics now that's what we're stuck with.

I fucking hate this shit, I can't even cancel the order because NY will ban me. I just hope it looks better in-hand, but I'm not expecting it

Nothing of interest to me. Grievous I can’t see working. His design is horrible for a highly articulated action figure, this guy will snap or look off because they want to stabilize him.

And Jabba? Yeah no, I believe it when I see pre-orders, this guy will never come out. Or he’ll just be a statue.

Jabba and Grievous could be Figuarts Zeros.

Den-O · 10-29-2015, 04:35 PM

Hell yeah episode 2 Obi-Wan!

Well, in anticipation of SS4 Goku and SSGod Goku, I just paid for 3 different Gokus.

All that money I had set aside for next month's preorders is gone! DX

It would make sense for Jabba. Granted, I'd be passing on him either way.

Grievous I sure hope not. Hasbro did just release a 7-inch scale articulated figure of him... Which is horrible because it's too heavy due to the point of the line being diecast and weak ball joints. But hey, it does kinda show it's possible and won't necessarily look bad at least.

Finally! One of the two Star Wars characters I would even remotely consider buying as an SHF.
