SithLord84's Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy​

Hello and welcome to my Star Wars themed mancave. As you can see I am a huge fan of both Star Wars Trilogies. The statues you see here are from Sideshow Collectibles' Premium Format line. The collection itself is still very much a collection in progress, I couldn't tell you when I'll be finished but I do know that I am not done yet and I still have more statues on the way and I also have more posters/prints that will be added once they are framed.

The cabinets you see here are from Ikea, but all the parts are sold separately. The units themselves are called Besta, the doors are called Sindvik, and the interior lights are called Stotta.

In addition to the Star Wars collection the room features a Samsung 46" 3D LED TV, a Samsung HT-E5400 3D Home Theater System, as well as a Sony PS3 and a PS4.

I loved the visions parts from those eps. Anakin's was awesome with some of the dialogue lines taken from ROTS, and then that Vader helmet in the end. And I loved Obi-Wan's too with Qui-Gon. It was so good to hear Liam's voice again as one of my favorite roles he's ever played.

Oh man, I couldn't even imagine what the SS bill would be if they made all the characters in PF form that HT is making.

If SS doesn't deliver on a Kylo PF I might have to buy it. I'm really going to try really hard to stick to 1/4 with SW though. But that doesn't mean I am with other lines. I'm already craving another HT .

Yeah, same here.

You'll hear his voice again in Season 6. Ooops! Spoiler alert! LOL!

The last Mortis Ep was the last one I watched. I actually have to go and update my CC on my Netflix account and I've just been too lazy to do it LOL!

Are you guys keeping up with Spooktacular at all?

Hell yeah! LOL. I've been refreshing that page on SSF like crazy and got $25 so far in rewards and its only day 2. I foresee these reward points going towards something new from HT .

Pfft! Nope! Anything good announced?

Today they announced a sixth scale R2-Q5, and it looks like the sixth scale Maul is going to go up tomorrow. Obviously no new Star Wars PFs LMAO!

 

[terp_fan99]

Pfft! Nope! Anything good announced?

There hasn't been anything good other than free rewards points.

Random question, did Darth Bane (or his ghost) appear in Clone Wars at some point? I heard someone mention this and I got excited because that would technically make him canon...and I loved the Darth Bane trilogy of novels so I'd be happy if he still exists

Yeah I got all the reward points so far. Have you tried entering any of the contests? How the heck do they expect us to follow everything on Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, Periscope, and Pinterest (I don't even know how to use the latter three!).

I have yet to get to the Ep yet, but I know for a fact that Darth Bane is in TCW in some form and he is voiced by Mark Hamill! Hamill is such an awesome voice actor! His Joker voice is still one of my favs.

I actually don't have any social media at all anymore lol. I used to have a Facebook but I closed it down a couple years ago and I'm not opening it back up lol. I was thinking of joining Twitter just for the Sideshow contests but I haven't yet. And I checked out Periscope today, it seems pretty cool but it wasn't cool enough to get me to want to sign up. Right now I'm happy with just the free reward points.

No surprise there. FFS!

Kylo Ren perhaps?

Ahh! Season 3 is good. Wait until 4 though.

Like Josh said, Bane is in TCW so-to-speak. Just for a minute though in the very last episode of Season 6 in the Yoda arc. Here is a link to the Canon version of the Wookipedia page. Spoiler warning though if you plan on watching TCW.

Well, I'm actually planning to use some points on the Batman Returns HT. You guys know how much I like the Burton Batman films and I'm kinda bummed I missed out on the first Batman they did from the first film even though I happily got the PF instead. But I thought this would go really well with the 1:6 Tweeterhead Returns Pfeiffer Catwoman statue I ordered since they are the same scale. I'm only going to order the single Batman unless they improve on the Keaton sculpt with the 2 pack, but I have a feeling since they redid the Han sculpt when enough people complained I think they will do the same with Keaton.

I can't believe I'm going to say this but I think SS really is going to make a Kylo PF. I know that sounds crazy lol, but sooner or later I know they will crank out at least one PF from the new movie and I'd bet he will be way on the top of their list. If it doesn't happen then I will pick up the Kylo HT instead, but with the amount of money and space I've already committed to SW PFs I really want to keep collecting PFs only when it comes to SW. Plus PFs are still my favs .

And I wanted to put this here because I've always said they kept Luke off the marketing material for a good reason, but JJ finally confirmed it was done on purpose:

In addition, the subject of the mostly-missing Luke Skywalker from the marketing materials was brought up, which the master of the mystery box says was deliberate.

“These are good questions to be asking, I can’t wait for you to find out the reason… It’s no accident.” -J.J.

I just hope the reason isn't that he's turned to the dark side!

What all have they made from Batman Returns? Just Batman? Do you wish you had ordered the HT Jack Nicholson Joker as well?

I got a notice today that my HT Spacetrooper was shipping in 2-4 weeks so I cancelled that. I had forgotten I ordered it and don't feel like spending $200 on such an obscure character when I already have the regular stormtrooper and a sandtrooper on order. Don't need a third one!

 

[terp_fan99]

By the way, how great do Vader and Luke look in this picture?

I'm tellin' ya man. They are keeping him and Snoke a secret for a reason.

TFA PF's are all about I'd get from SS going forward. Well, PT ones also. No more repeats.

Ahh, k, got it! Yeah, that'll go perfectly with that statue.

I hope not too. I think he'll be some Uber Jedi though. Maybe senile and lost in the Force in some way. Kinda like Maul first was in TCW.

Yeah they only did Batman from Returns so far. The people on the forums seem to think thats the only character they will make too. I can't even tell you how badly I wish I would have ordered the HT Nicholson Joker. I figured SS was going to crank out a Nicholson PF to go along with Batman a couple months after he went up for order but it never happened. I can guarantee you though if SS never makes him in PF form I will track down a Nicholson Joker HT one day. He's my all-time favorite version of the character, and there is no way I won't have a nice high end collectible of him.

Good call on cancelling the Spacetrooper. Thats a super obscure character, and I think $200 is a lot of money to drop on something thats basically just a variant IMO.

By the way, how great do Vader and Luke look in this picture?

They look so good! I have to admit I think HT did a better job with making sure the characters are in proper scale with each other than SS did with the PFs. I think the old Vader PF should be a bit taller than it is.

I'm tellin' ya man. They are keeping him and Snoke a secret for a reason.

They haven't showed Max Von Sydow's character anywhere either. I'm loving that so much of this movie is a mystery and I can't really assemble the entire plot from the trailers. I wish more movies would start doing this marketing strategy.

That's disappointing. Both Catwoman and Penguin from Batman Returns would be pretty awesome. I can't believe you put your hopes in SS making a PF, ha ha.

LOL! I don't know what the hell is wrong with me! I'm thinking maybe someone there will make one by accident. The boss comes strolling by: "What the hell are you doing?!! Thats not a DC or Marvel PF! You know we are supposed to keep upsetting the nerds on the internet by not releasing SW PFs! Now that you've gotten so far on the thing we're going to have to sell the damn thing!"

I'm starting to kind of rethink getting the Retuns HT. I've already got a great Keaton piece, and although I like the Returns outfit, I just don't know if it justifies me dropping another $200+ on another Keaton item. If they would guarantee they were making Penguin and Catwoman I'd be more enticed to do so, but they announced the Returns license back in 2012 I think and it took them this long to get 1 figure out, and with a new Batman/Superman movie right around the corner I don't see them taking the time to crank out more stuff from a movie that is almost 25 years old. (**** I'm getting old lol)

How are you doing on Spook? I've got $55 so far. Two days ago I stayed up till 4:15 in the morning waiting for a code that didn't come LOL!

That's really your only chance for a Star Wars PF at this point, ha. Or about 10 months from now when the hype for episode VII has died out that's when they'll start putting them up for order.

I'm the same, got $55. I didn't bother staying up, just figured if I get them I get them. Kind of nice since I emptied my reward points on Aquaman.

I don't know if I would double dip if I were you especially since the Keaton PF is fantastic. But if there are any Hot Toys you're interested in you should head over to https://www.popcultcha.com.au/ right now. They are having a 20% off sale on any in stock item and with the exchange rate everything is super discounted! I pulled the trigger on the HT Commando John Matrix. It was $171 shipped from that site...it's $259.99 shipped at Sideshow. They have the DoFP Wolverine in stock, I think I remember you saying you were interested in that.

I can't believe this. I just ordered the DOFP Wovlerine this morning from Under Ground Figures for $235. I was actually happy to find one brand new from a reputable dealer for under retail when its already sold out from SS. I've literally never had a problem with them whatsoever with anything and they always deliver to me within a few days. And now I've seen everyone over at SSF going insane over these prices at Popcultcha and I check the UnderGround Figures website and there is no option for me to cancel my order. I could have saved like $70 including shipping even after the Paypal conversion charge! All these Spook codes that I've been staring at a computer screen for don't even equal that. I want to vomit right now .

Oh no! That sucks big time. Could you call to cancel?

It's crazy that another site is showing Sideshow up with better sales on their own product during spook week. Sideshow's discounts have all been extremely disappointing. I was hoping for a good deal on the Medicom Kick-Ass figure. It is 25% off on Sideshow right now which brings it down to around $169...it's regular price on BBTS is $172 so I figured there was no incentive to order it right now.
