hey groovy where have you been hiding at haven`t seen you on here in a while. I have the taito one it`s a lot better then the under scale Hasbro version how much did you get him for
Yeah this one has no electronics, but it is not something I really miss since I always take the batteries out and put the figures in a glass prison. Honestly the only beef I have with it is the head seams, but that isn't something a small file and a repaint cannot fix. I am also curious how much you paid for it.
a fortune I paid 125 for mine from a japanese company. these guys are so hard to find you have to get them direct from japan. I have been buisy with school and i have 2 custom jobs i am prepping for as well. I was on Joe's area doing a revamp of baroness and re-working my Harley Quinn using medicom parts. I took a vaca from Star wars for awhile until i have more me-time.

That looks killer... guess I'll pick up the can warmer until I can find a good price on the clock. Really wish I hadn't waited to get the clock
I'd buy the can cooler if it at least had the retractable leg.

Yeah, I'm bummed it doesn't have that and probably doesn't tilt... but still looks great and I have a fun idea for that flip-top

Anybody familiar with this one?
Is it one whole piece or can the R5D4 head be easily removed and work as a shorthand to making a custom R5D4 out of the Taito clock? Since it seems I can get the bust fairly cheap and it's supposed to be 1/6 I thought about getting one and see.

Still can be had for ￥ 2,180 in Japan, so even using the proxys that you yanks are so afraid of you can still get probably 3-4 for $119. That is IF you want the Taito.

Yup. Exactly. Got mine for about $35.09 shipped from one of those sites.

I'll be curious to see how the Sideshow R2 measures up literally in terms of size with the Taito since the Taito is the most accurately sized R2 out there.
Taito has the seam too.
