SSC Darth Vader Deluxe has arrived and is going back. The silver tip thingy on the right side of his mask is missing plus there is a black glob of something on that side of the helmet. For $250 it should be flawless. I cancelled all of my open orders and I think I am done with Sideshow.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
I agree with the bad luck part. With all the figures I have I've never had a reason to return them in terms of QA issues. And I am OCD when it comes to getting the perfect item as well.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
One of my most anticipated figures. Now bring on A New Hope Luke and Leia.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
So the price for the Hot Toys Obi-Wan Kenobi isn't too bad, $219.99 and the figure looks pretty good to me. If you wait you could use a Sideshow monthly coupon for $20 off to bring it to under $200 which isn't bad at all. He's a little light on accessories with only the light up lightsaber and the lightsaber hilt, but he comes with what he needs and the outfit and head sculpt is pretty awesome.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
With these prices for HT Star Wars, that SS Luke Red 5 price is still mind boggling.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
Oh, some of the Marvel fans might have liked this piece with an edition size of only 50.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
Preordered mine. Used reward points to get the price down to $165 shipped.

Amazon has some lightning deals today on movie collectibles, autographed lithos iirc.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
Yeah, there new eye system sucks, and they still get derpy eyes with it, so what's the point.
My biggest gripe with SS is their flesh paint. Well their paint over all. My 1/6 Batman, the face plates are a puke green/brown. He looks dead and the one plate makes him look like a zombie. I love my Keaton PFs, but the flesh paint sucks. I think SS and NECA use the same melted Crayola crayon they use for flesh. If your lucky to get SS to but that much effort into it. |
Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
The thing is I actually want the Red 5 Luke as I think that's a pretty cool look for the character, but at $240 its way overpriced. Maybe if it goes on sale at some point or I might consider using a coupon on it but I dunno.

(credit to Solid Snake in the Age of Ultron thread for the link to the image) I'm guessing this will go up for pre-order on Sideshow today as Hot Toys put up the reveal last night and generally the pre-order is the next day in that case. There's two versions, a regular which comes with one screaming head sculpt and a second deluxe set with an interchangeable "Hulk smash" torso and arms and a different head sculpt. Personally I want the second head sculpt but will probably get the regular version of the figure. I don't exactly understand the benefit to the second torso and arms other than maybe the regular version can reach his arms up high enough for the smash pose (I don't have the original figure so not sure if the arm articulation is limited on it or not). |

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
I haven't heard of threezero before. Do they put out quality products?
I saw the release date is in August of this year so I may wait to see what kind of reviews it gets. But it certainly looks cool. A lot cooler than my little $15 figure of the same thing. ;) This may have to go besides my BB barrel instead of my cheap one. |

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
Hulk is up for order, $274.99 for the regular version and $374.99 for the deluxe version. I don't think I can justify the extra $100 for the interchangeable torso and head sculpt. I want the head sculpt but might just see if I can buy it parted out.

If you want some examples of their quality search YouTube for reviews of their Game of Thrones figures (they've done Ned Stark and Tyrion Lannister). I don't think that Threezero is quite as big of a name in the 1/6th collectible market yet, but they're building themselves up a bit more and gaining some bigger licenses. I think the Heisenberg figure is actually set to be released around quarter three so the August date is most likely wrong.
I think I'm ok with my Avengers 1 Hot Toys Hulk... but having missed Hawkeye last time, I have to grab him when he's solicited. |

What's funny is that threezero makes stuff that seems (to me at least) to be insanely expensive (they just did a version of Mazinger Z that's 300, and they're doing a movie Bumblebee for like 375), but I think Hot Toys is so insanely expensive already that threeA's 1/6 figures seem normal... :)

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
Well, the "smell my underarms" pose also makes it basically a statue, and as we all know, playing with dolls, I mean action figures, I mean movable collectibles is way better than collecting statues. Or something like that.

Re: 1 and Only Movie Figures and Collectibles Discussion
I never noticed that the Hulk had a pair of stretch pants until I saw that figure. :lol:
