I do wonder what ones will be next?
i heard over on another forum that Grievous (pre cyborg) will be one that they will do next.

i really love this line..Obi-wan is a bit over priced IMO..but got to have it to go along with Maul. i want to collect the whole line. hopefully i can afford to..

that looks very cool, much better than the cyborg.

Just got the flex payments for Obi delayed until Nov, Dec, Jan email. I figured they wouldn't get this out in Nov.. and I'm kind of happy about it. Way too much else to get.

I have to say Boba looks sweet. I love the lightsabers on his belt in back. This figure just screams BAD ASS.

Have Boba pre-ordered, hoping for Grievous and Mace Windu in the future...

well ok. here is mine. 230 of 2500.
love the sculpt. my paint aps came out ok as far as not missing any paint. its fairly clean. the eyes could have been better placed. but they are small as hell. so not so noticeable. and not too googely.
the body does seem to be a bit dusty. when comparing it to the head. the head as you can see is more shiny. i tried wiping the body down with just a dry cloth. it seemed to help a little . but nothing that helped it match the head. ill have to wait and leave it out on display in the open for while for the head to start to look like the body..lol
its does bother me a little. but i can live with it i guess.
but the one thing about this piece that really irritates me (and i will bring it to SS attention) is the way the hands go on. the right hand doesn't bother me as much as the left. but i cannot for the life of me get the damn left hand to stay on. its really pissing me off. so i used a small piece of clean clay to hold the hand on while i took photos. i tried like hell to get that thing to stay on by itself. i twisted and pushed several times over. but it just wont stay on by itself. even without the saber blades on.
i can agree with everyone here that said that they should have used magnets in them. PFS not to. so ill more than likely just hot glue the hand on. that way if i want to take it off it wont be to difficult. another thing i noticed was that the stick and the saber are not so straight or as straight as i would like to see them. the stick doesn't bother as much becasue its supposed to be a piece of wood. but as far as the saber goes. i feel the saber should be straight. when i put the blades on they are all out of alignment. i can get them to point where they look OK. but not as straight as i would like for them to be or how they should be. and i would have liked to see the base painted black like Darth Vader's is rather than gold. ill more than likely have it painted to match Vader's. along with touching up his upper lip to make it black like it should be on his calm face other than that i really like this piece. lol
here are some photos i took really quick...

I can see what you're talking about with the head being shinier. I don't think the eyes are bad though.

Still on the fence on this, I preordered Boba so I'll probably wait and see how I like him in person.

Thanks for the pics!

Ordered Vader.

He is awesome looking.

He'll be my first Sideshow piece for Star Wars.

I'm not crazy about Vader's base, but I've got him and Boba ordered...
