SithLord84's Wretched Hive of Scum and Villainy

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.

Han Solo Premium Format

Luke Skywalker Jedi Knight Premium Format

Oh hell yes!

 

[STARKILLER 1138]

Oh hell yes!

Thought you'd like that! LOL!

So, here's a thought. Have you speculated that Luke may not even be alive in TFA? Maybe he's a Force Ghost?

I thought about that, but if he died, thats an absolutely huge thing to leave out between the numbered Episodes that are the heart of the saga. But I suppose anything's possible.

I did hear an interview from George like a week ago, and he sounds like he's not necessarily happy on how these planned sequels are going to turn out. It really is starting to sound like he had a different path where he wanted to take the sequels in where it really still focused heavily a family space opera about generations, and instead it sounds like Disney/LFL/Kennedy/Abrams wanted to "make something for the fans". That's literally what he said about them. I'm not so sure things really are all that pleasant behind the scenes with George and Disney, or if George is really involved in the story at all. I thought for sure they'd still use some of his ideas, but after hearing the interview it sounds like George really isn't that happy.

I also saw this:

Spoiler

I guess he really is talking to the helmet. "So... how was your day?" LMAO!

I've seen that, and have been trying like crazy to find a hi-rez image to display on my set. "How was your day" LMAO! "So, yeah, I'm a little bummed! Snoke won't let me be a Sith like you, so I have to keep this Ren name. I'M SOOO BUMMED!" HAHAHA!

I thought about that, and it could be a big reveal in EPVIII on how Luke died (if he indeed has) especially if he isn't seen until the end-ish of the film. Yeah, I'm using "end-ish" as a word. Maybe it was Snoke, or say if Kylo is his son, maybe he did it. I'm probably wrong since we do see a hooded figure with a robotic hand being put on R2 in the teasers.

LMAO!

Well that would be a good cliffhanger to reveal that Luke is really dead. I guess anything is possible. I think quite a few of the shots we've seen in the trailers have been shot just for the trailers. Like the first shot we see of Finn popping his head up out of nowhere in Stormtrooper gear. I think JJ filmed shots like these just for the trailers to get people talking. I'm thinking that scene with Luke/R2 might not be in the film exactly like that. I could be way off though LOL.

True. How much of the original teaser will actually make it in the movie. At this point, I'm skipping all new teasers, TV spots, and the like. Just in case.

I've said this to myself quite a few times but I always watch them, I've learned that it is useless to resist, it is my destiny.

Here is a bunch of videos that have nothing to do with the new movie LOL:

The first one is Mark Hamill dressing up as a Stormtrooper going out in public:



The next one is an absolutely awesome promo for the Original Saga that was made for Sky Movies from the U.K.



And lastly something that has nothing to do with Star Wars, the new Green Goblin PF.



I don't like this character nearly enough to purchase a PF of him, especially when I'm not collecting Spider-Man stuff, but this has to be one of the BEST LOOKING PFs I've ever seen!

It looks badass! Seems SS is still trying to step up their base game.

Awesome Promo! I still plan to watch Sith this week. Hopefully tomorrow.

My wife showed me that earlier. What a missed opportunity to tell him he was a little short for a First Order Trooper, LOL!

LOL! He totally should have said that. I wonder if he took the helmet off for anybody. He should have at least for all the people that said Luke was their favorite character.

I gotta be honest, even after all of my complaining about SS's huge bases, they are cranking out some PFs that easily rival XM's stuff. They might not come with as many switchout heads, but overall to me they look as dynamic. I guess SS is thinking a lot of people must leave their PFs out in the open because they must have realized there really aren't that many available cabinets out there that will fit these huge things.

We have yet to see an actual SW statue from XM. I really wonder what the hold up is. Hell, even GG has a First Order Trooper bust up for PO. IMO, if XM can pull off what they teased in production form, it will blow the SS stuff away. The downside for me is that it won't be mixed media which really sells the piece to me. It is good though that there are more options for collectors rather than just relying on SS for the high-end statue stuff.

BTW, you see the 1/10 BB8 Iron Studios made?

Its literally the ultimate insult to SS when GG can get a TFA product up before them LOL!

I love mixed media, and I always prefer it over fully sculpted. Still, fully sculpted can look amazing too. The Woverine PF I ordered is fully sculpted and I think it will turn out great. I can't wait to see what XMs SW stuff will look like. I'm still bummed no Vader dio pics have leaked.

I just saw that Iron Studios BB-8. I must be missing something. Its 1/10 scale and it costs over $200? So thats the same scale as Koto's little line which the regular characters are around 8" tall. Thats going to make BB-8 probably under 3" big. How is this thing $200 LOL?

I know! Of course, your telling this to the guy who's going to pay up to 3 times what an SS PF costs for an XM statue, LOL! A little scary to see what their bigger SW statues will cost.

Or even finished Boba pics! Everyone wants to do concept but not actually make the statue it seems.

And not only that, but after they do the concept drawings they keep them out of the eyes of every region that they don't offer the products to LOL . I still can't figure out how they managed to beat the internet. I mean you can find anything online.

I think even after all of my complaining I could at least understand someone paying more than a grand for a quarter scale piece, especially after I see what some of SS's stuff sells for in the aftermarket once its sold out. The original Dr. Doom still sells for over 4 grand. But I'm sorry, a little 1/10 scale BB-8 for over $200 is ridiculous! I mean this things the same size as a Hasbro toy for Christ's sake LOL! You can get the little app-enabled BB-8 from Sphero for less than that, and you can drive that thing around with your phone, and it makes noises.

Exactly! Far better bargain with the Sphero version.

Right?!! Security must have been insane at that convention to prevent even the smallest leak. Hell, even TFA had more leaks than XM! LOL!

Exactly! LFL should be hiring the people from XM to keep spoilers from getting out.

HT revealed Rey & BB-8

I've lost count on how many characters HT has already cranked out.

Holy hell! I love how reminiscent her hair is to Jedi braids here. HT is killing me with all these!

So, remember way back when spoke to my "inside source" about TFA, and he told me about something in the movie, and I had said that if true kinda disappointing if they do that yet again, but would still be a good movie? Well, he tried to let something slip last night too, but I X'ed out of Skype before he could say anything. LOL! I'm not talking to him again until after I see the movie.

I didn't even think of the similarity lol. Don't say anything to loud though, Simon Pegg might find out and cry to JJ about something resembling the prequels and he'll beg JJ to digitally remove them LMAO.

LOL! Awesome way to dodge the spoilers. I think the end of this week or early next week I will probably be signing off from the internet until I see the movie. I just can't risk spoiling anything. And I am leaving for a family Christmas vacation at my sister's timeshare down in Florida on the 18th. I didn't buy any tickets for the 17th so it looks like I will either be seeing it down there, or when I get back here the week after .

Well, here is I guess the best thing we've gotten out of SS so far concerning TFA stuff:

We're in the process of trying to get an announcement/tease up of one the first Star Wars: Force Awakens we have in the works next week. If we get the go ahead from Lucas Film we'll have something up by the 17th. If they don't approve in time, it will be after the 17th sometime.

I can't believe its less than 2 weeks before the film is about to open, every other company either has stuff up for order or already out there for the customers, and SS is just now working on getting the approval from LFL. And on top of that it looks like if they manage to get the approval it will only be an announcement tease instead of a P.O. I can't believe how badly SS just dropped the ball here.

You know I have to agree 100%! Teases should have been done on 9/4 FFS! Now, they are scrambling to save face. Too late!

Pegg would haveto remove JJ's Johnson before speaking though. Come on! You know that's how he gets into JJ's movies, right?!

Have fun on your vacation. Hope you do get to see the movie while youare there. I'll be sure to not say anything in the meantime, LOL!

Oh man, thats hilarious! Pegg definitely like's his Jewish Kishka!

I'd probably rather be going down to Florida during February when its a guaranteed ice cube here. Winter has been really mild here this year so far.

Another 2 TV spots:





I really keep playing Chicken with the internet everyday trying to prove to myself that I won't get spoiled by something, even though I know if I keep playing this game I'm going to lose soon lol.
