Ha, yeah still no new Star Wars PFs. Heck they still haven't even got Cody out who was at comic con two years ago.

That Loki looks good. There are a lot of good looking statues there, He-Man and Skeletor look pretty awesome. My only nitpick with Supergirl (other than the fact that she's saluting with the wrong hand) is she looks like she's in her 30s instead of like a teenager which is how she's normally portrayed. Aquaman looks underwhelming, but I think he'll be awesome in person.

It feels like there is a ton of Batman stuff, anything on your wish list?



It's actually from Hot Toys. They say it's 1/6 scale (probably not truly 1/6, but big enough to fit a 1/6 scale figure in the cockpit). If you look at the Marty McFly and Delorean next to it in this picture, you have to figure the thing is around 5 feet tall!

If they put it up for sale, I'll be grabbing it for sure! Would love for the to do a 1/6 Republic Gunship or AT-TE.

The only thing that SS is putting any effort into as far as SW goes is sixth scale. And since HT just acquired the license I would have thought that would have been a good time for SS to back off of the 1:6 stuff and focus on PFs or other stuff, but obviously not.

I'd love to see either a Yoda movie set whenever they wanted, or an Obi-Wan movie between Eps III and IV. They could literally come up with whatever story they wanted and not feel forced into making an entire movie about a little SW quote.

I'm really hoping what I read was true because I'd love to see Cad Bane brought to life in live action. And I'm not going to lie, I do like Boba quite a bit so it will be cool to see more of him too.



I feel so bad for anyone who ordered Cody. Someone better be losing their job over a delay like that.

That Skeletor statue is all kinds of awesomeness. I used to be a big MOTU fan was I was very little but it just never stuck with me like SW, or superheroes have. I was a bit shocked about how underwhelming Aquaman was. I'm not really a big fan of the character, but I was still expecting something more about it.

As far as Batman characters go, I'll be picking up the Pfeiffer Catwoman statue from Tweeterhead for sure. But I'm all done with collecting comic statues. I'm just more of a movie guy and am focusing on collecting movie stuff from this point forward.

I seriously hope they put the TIE into production. I have no clue how much that thing would cost or how they could even possibly ship it, but I just hope it happens. And I hope they do a 1:6 X-Wing too.

I like Boba too, and it will be nice to see him in action again. I love what they did with the character in TCW. Bane though is a whole other league. A badass you love to hate!

I'd love a 1:6 Sith Infiltrator or Slave 1.

Cad Bane is very cool. I wonder if they will go with an actor in a physical costume or make him CGI for the movie. They better not leave out his awesome hat.

No way they'd do that! LOL!

BTW, I saw that Catwoman Maquette that's coming out. You must be a happy man!

I'll take both! And, a 1/6 Podracer Anakin vs Sebulba.

A 1:6 Slave 1 would be massive! By the way, looks like they're making another Premium Format Darth Maul:

I definitely am . I ordered it from SS yesterday. The only thing is I am not familiar with Tweeterhead at all so I have no idea how they are as far as delays go.

Oh you know I'd love 1/6 Podracers too! Those things definitely don't get enough love from the high end collectibles market.

I'm a very happy camper.

Awesome news! Man, I hope it's from TCW in a pose from The Lawless episode! I do with thought that they would move on to different characters in the universe. So many great ones that need to be made. Happy to see Jango still on the schedule too! Surprising there are no high-end Rebels products coming though.

Oh hell yeah! Excellent haul man! I suggest getting some disposable gloves (without powder) for Vader. That cape and helmet are a fingerprint magnet!

No doubt! Hell! Even in 1/9 scale that be a huge display! Those are the kind of dios I'd like to see. Obi-Wan vs Acklay, Obi-Wan on Boga vs Grievous on Wheelbike, Anakin & Obi-Wan in yellow speeder vs Zam in speeder, Anakin, Padme and Obi-Wan on Reek vs Droidekas (surrounded) and there are so much more from TCW.

Thanks man! Thats great advice by the way! I think I'll pick some of those up.

All of those Dios sound like they would be really freaking sweet, especially that Obi-Wan vs. Grievous. I'd love to see an Ep. II Obi-Wan vs Jango with the Slave 1 parked nearby.

Here is the new Maul PF:

Looks like they are going with their own interpretation of the character. He's got gauntlets on like he wears in TCW, but it looks like they are a different design, and he's not wearing that neck thing either. He also has his old original double bladed lightsaber. I'm going to wait to see how to wait to see how this thing turns out before I go into a fanboy frenzy. I really had my hopes set for a new fully hooded Maul, but this could be awesome too.

Awesome! Thanks for the pic man! Similar to TCW definitely! No chicken legs though, but it seems to midsection is more like how he looked after he met up with Death Watch. If it is a PF, I bet MYC's Maul Cloak would look good on it. Wish they'd do his broken saber though. In the end, just happy to see another PT/ TCW offering.

Yes! Stuff like that! Go big with the dios like they did with the Ambush on Hoth one.

I think I'm more excited to see how Jango turns out. Even though I'm a huge Maul fan they have done quite a lot with the character already and there are so many characters they still haven't done yet. Again, how many Vader, Boba, and Mauls do they have to do before they get to other stuff. We seriously need some more PT Jedi PFs. And where the hell is a Lando PF? They have a whole 'nother 3 movies coming out from the saga, and who knows how many spinoffs when they are all said and done with those. I know Vader, Boba and Maul are their money makers but its a huge letdown to people who are waiting for other characters and can't get them because SS keeps revisiting the same ones. I really want a Mace, Lando, Qui-Gon, Ewan Obi-Wan and a Boushh Leia.

That Hoth Dio with the Wampa is freaking awesome.

Holy cow, that's a lot of Star Wars PFs! Congrats man! Time to go Besta shopping! I still have Chewie if you're interested

Oh hell yeah! That video was amazing. Definitely saw Ackbar and Nien Nunb in there! I wish Wedge would have come back

Thanks man! Luckily I got 4 Bestas just waiting for these guys but I still need to get doors and lights. Chewie is definitely on my to get list but I'm so broke after this haul . I may be able to get him after a couple of months of recouping. I also need to get the droids but at the rate those two are going for I'll be saving for awhile. I need to get Leia too, I haven't decided if I want slave Leia or the ANH one.

I absolutely loved the video. So much nostalgia while seeing completely new stuff too. Words can't describe how excited I am for this.

If you guys wanna check out the SDCC panel here it is:



JJ's impression of Larry Kasdan was awesome and hilarious.

I agree with your want list. Qui-Gon and Mace especially.

I say go for the ANH Leia. Far better, IMO.

Awesome! Thanks for the video man! Going to check it out between some gaming tonight!

You betcha! I get the feeling they really don't want Adam Driver saying anything about Kylo Ren.

I'm definitely leaning towards ANH as its the classic outfit. But with it being so old the sculpt isn't that stellar. I was hoping they might do a new Boushh one or a Cloud City one.

Also here's what they showed for Jango at the SS panel:

 

[terp_fan99]

So I didn't realize Gwendoline Christie was playing that crazy looking stormtrooper (I think they said Captain Phasma), that's interesting. I love her on Game of Thrones so she should be good in this.

Did anyone watch the Batman vs. Superman trailer? Snyder sure knows how to make a good trailer, I'll give him that.

And I agree with Lou, just from pictures I've seen ANH Leia looks better than slave Leia.

Oh no! The ANH Leia sculpt is far better than the Slave Leia by far. You can't go wrong with either really, but if I had to choose one, it be ANH Leia easily.

I'm about to watch it in my room. Got my coffee and lunch on my side table ready to go!

That Jango post reminds me of the Unleashed figure, LOL!

OMG! I didn't even realize a new one was out! Damn I can't wait for this movie!

Yeah, and she's like 6'2". Aren't you a little tall for a Stormtrooper? LOL!

Yup, Captain Phasma. I think she is probably going to kick a lot of dudes asses in this movie.

I did see it and I think it looks slightly better than the first trailer. Was Bats also wearing the Red Son outfit in the trailer? Thats way too bizarre of an outfit for my taste lol.

Okay guys, I think that settles it. I'll go for the ANH one when I can afford it. Not being able to put these older pieces on flex pay sucks LOL!

Sweet. Boyega is awesome and funny as hell. I think he's going to be great in this. And Daisy Ridley is super hot LOL.

LOL. She is even taller than me dude. I wonder if we'll find out that its a chick under there in the movie.

She was the tallest person on the panel. My wife watched it with me and was like, "Holy S!" LMAO! Can't wait to see her character in action in the movie. Love the responses from Driver too. Boyega was funny as hell, and Ridley has that Kiera Knightly thing going on. Never really noticed it until watching her on the panel. Love how Gleeson let the name of a base slip, LOL! And, it confirmed what my "inside source" said via skype a few months back. Love the name of the base though!

You gonna go for the EX or reg? I skipped the EX on ANH Leia because I wanted to display it with her signature blaster. Not a Stormtrooper one. But, for alot of collectors, a chick with a big gun is a winner.

Was happy to finally see Eisenberg and Gadot. Also, noticed Robins costume after watching the trailer a thousand times, LOL! The "Red Son" outfit seemed more like a costume designed for the desert. It's going to be good!

She's definitely freaking huge dude. Driver's responses were hilarious. That dude really isn't allowed to say a damn thing lol. Ridley definitely has a Kiera Knightly thing going on. I think we'll be seeing more of her in upcoming movies for sure. And not just SW ones. And I knew you you'd like that Starkiller Base name .

I'll probably just go for the reg. But it could come down to which version I can find when I have the money. Really Anakin was the only one that I absolutely needed the EX for, thats probably why I got him before so many other characters. The next main focus for me is going to be the droids but since they are going for a grand+ it'll be awhile before I get 'em. I hope SS decides to make another round of them since they left them as a "limited edition" instead of setting an ES. I also have a Stormie on flex that I'll get in early September. I kinda hope they eventually make a battle droid or a destroyer droid PF.

I'm excited to finally see WW in a movie. And with the Robin suit on display in the Batcave in the movie with the spray paint all over it that was probably put there by the Joker, I'm pretty sure that means that Jason Todd's death with be canon in the current DCCU. And from the casting I've seen I think we'll be seeing the Carrie Kelly version of Robin from Frank Miller's Dark Knight Returns. Not a fan of that version of Robin at all though.
