I think that actually helps my point, right? :) Means if you really want ESB Yoda, then this is THE one. And only 5,000 of 'em.
I never said it didn't. I merely pointed out that it is actually in a different league than Vader because while Vader is hot right now (some auctions have it rivaling the PF price), they'll be others. This is far more limited and is actually above Vader because I would wager to say that it's not ESB Yoda but OT Yoda with this release.

Not sure what you mean, Mike.

Now I think he means it will be the only OT Yoda that will be available.
No separate ESB and ROTJ versions, as that really isn't necessary.
Whereas Vader will have ANH, ESB and ROTJ from OT.

Ah, gotcha. Good point.
But Vader seems to be the only figure that has reached Hot Toys value status in the aftermarket, isn't he? At least as far as a non-exclusive goes. Everyone else can be had for at least their original retail price.

I think that's true. I don't track value very often but I have heard that Vader's price is on the rise. Of course, it's Vader. There's really no single figure more "Star Wars" than that.
If you could only have one figure on your shelf to represent Star Wars, would it be Vader? For me, yes.

But no way I'm canceling Yoda!!!! I'm not afraid!!!

I dunno. When you say HT value status, I think the price increase percentage. The Jedi Luke Ex sells for $100, that's over double the value and no different than a $150 HT figure running at $300-$400. :huh

That's true, and a good point.
Does anyone really notice though unless the figure is a break out like Hicks was or the Mark I is now?
Vader's prices aren't that crazy.
If you're (not you, Nam) collecting for profit, then you must have a very small collection...if you're good at your job.

Can't believe there's not more excitement from such a great character. I've seen lesser characters get more attention. I wonder if it's a sign of things in the SW SS 1/6 universe. (well at least he's sold out unlike Palpatine at first)

I'm really looking forward to having Yoda in the collection, Vader was my last SW fig.
But, SS are hitting me up for 43 bucks shipping to Aus for Yoda, Tetsuo was 25 a few weeks back. What's the deal with that?
I'll survive, but the fluctuation in shipping costs from SS is pretty strange. :dunno

I think this Yoda is much better than sickly Medicom Yoda...
Sculpt looks great! Face, hands, log, everything.
On the con side: I don't like the heavy dark paint that is the same color as the eyes, and I think the robe is too sheer...AND I think the necklace hangs down way too long (I'm assuming that's fixable).

With Medi it was an in-hand thing to me. It's Yoda spot on from all angles.
But when I first seen it I thought it wasn't great. Crap expression etc but having it in hand made all the difference.

I've been on the wait list for the exclusive since 10th August - what do you guys think are my chances of getting it?
I also ordered the regular edition last month, as I didn't want to end up with the hut and no Yoda.... I've already had a notice that he should ship in around 10 days, and I should ensure my card details are up to date (they're not, so I know I'm not going to get charged yet). But now I'm wondering if I should just cancel this one, and hold out for the exclusive (which I really want).
I've never ordered direct from SS before, so any advice would be appreciated.
BTW, I also have the Medicom Yoda, and like it a lot, but I think of that more of a ROTJ Yoda - the SS one looks far more like ESB Yoda IMHO.

Hang in there. Once the exclusive starts processing (next Friday), WL's will convert. Happens every time. That's not a guarantee, but it's too soon to pull the plug.

Thanks for that, sounds promising. I think I'll cancel the regular... and if I end up with neither, it looks like the regular should be easy enough to pick up from a different source.

Thanks for posting all of those pics, OSCORP! What a great preview...
First impressions based on these pics is good...same minor issues others have already mentioned, the sheer robe, the wonky eyes, the darkness of the green.
Although to be fair, even THAT varies from shot to shot...in the pics where the robe/clothes are removed,he looks lighter so...could all be in the pics...
The only thing color-wise that does look "off" a bit are...in the "tray" shots, the hands look a lot darker than the head/body...why oh why is this so often an issue with Sideshow? The coolest sculpts have so often been undone by the factory paint apps...but let's wait until more folks have actually seen it before totally lambasting those paint apps...
Now the pluses...great, extremely well articulated body! Well done there!
Should be quite able to achieve any pose as seen in the film for display and photos...and the rough texture to all the body parts is an interesting touch. The head sculpt looks good. And while the fabric seems a bit slight (reminding me of Tat Luke here), the robe and the other costume elements look well rendered.
The log is a realy cool feature for display...he'll look way better on display with it than just standing there.
So far, so good....
OSCORP
02-16-2011, 04:23 PM
Looks like the eye was an isolated incident. But the paint still looks kinda sloppy around the eyes. Shouldn't bother me in person though nice pics OMG. (And yes the Medi version is awesome and very accurate, but this one is hella more articulated and comes with more junk so better deal)

Bases are for the un-daring.
Besides, Yoda comes with a base -- a log.
Been a while since we last saw a figure that comes with this much of accessories.
The superb base body aside, I am most happy about extra hands and the log.

I could see them releasing a council chair as a separate environment, but that little hover chair he had in AOTC could actually fit in the box with the figure itself.

Speaking of feminine collectibles, I'll laugh if Sideshow releases a Yaddle before we get PT Yoda.

Uh... the exclusive hasn't even been released yet. He doesn't even start billing until Friday. I don't think the regular will ship until after the Ex does.
Yeah, I figured, but sometimes I forget to check my email and I don't want to miss the waitlist converted email and it gets converted and I get charged. It happenned to me before with the Battle Damaged Mk. III. Trying to learn my lesson, my wallet can't afford for both to be charged.

I would've just waited for the Ex to convert. The regular should be available from etailers after Sideshow starts shipping so for a month or two, there would've been a safety net.

Then to be fair, only their female figures are ever accurate below the belt.
But the point still stands that only a Yoda from a company like Triad would be cheaper than Sideshow's. And it would show.
This one is easily worth $15 more than Medicom's (though I wouldn't have complained if they had thrown in Luke's flashlight).

I've been waiting for a fully articulated Yoda for a long time. I remember tracking down a Hasbro ESB version and was speechless when I saw his lower body, then they came out with the PT version with the limited movement he had was pathetic.
I believe Mikey made an articulated version that kicked butt and I am very happy with this release.

I agree about the price. He's costing me $95 shipped and if he looks as good as he does in these pics, I won't regret a penny. Though I suspect those still living in the earlier part of the decade ($50 figures) will disagree. :lol

It looks as if a heavy layer of wash was taken to the face to make the line and wrinkle detail pop but it looks a bit too generous. Maybe a light drybrushing can fix it?

Yup, kudos to Sideshow for not oversizing like Hasbro, he comes up to about knee height on Obi-Wan in the training room in AOTC, looks like they got him in that right scale, which just further makes the detailing and work on this impressive now that we can really grasm how small this is.
