Wow, what an awesome presence.

If only I was a rich man...

I couldn't even begin to imagine where I would be able to put that. How tall is K-2?

2.16 Meters so about 7'1"

This will probably turn out amazing but I just don't see this selling well.

I want this so bad but knowing SSC it'll be like $8-$10K which means I'll just be a hoop dream.

Lol, no kidding Mike. I'm on the same page as you.

Even if it was $5k would you guys buy? I don't get the appeal unless you are a massive fan of robots?

Looks amazing, only a wish for me.

For K-2 himself? I'd consider it.

I thought the character was OK, but definitely not one I'd want in 1:1 form. There are a hundred cooler characters in Star Wars that I'd rather have as life-size statues than K2.

Looks great but it will remain a dream for me.

My thoughts exactly. If they had to do another robot why not IG-88, guarantee that would sell 10x better.

and now the deathtrooper? I don't get it. Of all the troopers out there they could choose from...

My only guess is that the RogueOne license must be expiring soon so they are milking it for all it's worth.

Makes sense. Rogue One is Star Wars in most people's minds for right now, right up until episode 8 comes out later this year. I'd be willing to bet that the vast majority of Sideshow's prospective buyers wouldn't even know who IG-88 is.

The only surprising thing to me is that we didn't see a life-size BB-8 announced alongside The Force Awakens. Talk about brand/character identification... that would sell like crazy.
