Re: Who's waiting for an Episode II Obi Wan?
I'm definitely getting this one, even though I already have both the Clone armor and EPIII Obi's. He's easily my favorite character from the Prequels and Trevor absolutely nailed this sculpt. It would actually be more expensive to try and customize one of these, so I think the price is fair. I'll probably use Reward Points on this one, but if I had to pay full price I wouldn't mind. I don't get the hate here...

Re: Who's waiting for an Episode II Obi Wan?
Tis' the nature of the Star Wars SSC Collector. Scream for the figure. Once the figure is announced, bash the hell out of it for being offered in the first place. Complain about price, exclusive, figure sculpt, the whole nine yards. Ordering day comes, people (most of who were just ^^^^^ing about it) post how they got it but state how they might not keep it. Complain and photoshop up until release. Post first pics. Chicken Little syndrome to the ninth degree complaning about how the production pictures look and people begin to cancel. Full shipment hits, better pictures are shown, the piece is regarded as the pinnacle of someone's collection. Rinse and Repeat.
Just go with it.

No exclusive, right?
I mean, it says limited edition 1,000 at the bottom of the preview.
So I'd say this figure itself is exclusive.

I'm ordering him. If I can get him cheaper minus the dart off site, I'll cancel from SSC and order there.
The dart's just not worth $10 to me.

Very smart of Sideshow to pull this out.
Save money by re-using some pieces of clothes and the headsculpt and making it of a popular character that you all want. He looks great!!!

I will have to slip out of my last class in order to order this one. Hopefully I will not have a problem getting him.

Re: Who's waiting for an Episode II Obi Wan?
Ok... putting a sculpted neck on him, and tossing him on the buck body? Epic fails. Aside from that, not to shabby. i'll get one, and i'll get a second clonobi and a true type, and fix it. Look very closely at the bottom of the neck, at the opening of his robes, you can see the neck separateion to the adapter part of the body. If i'm wrong, then i'll definitely get one, if I'm right, and he is on the buck, i'll still get one, but later.

I think he looks pretty sharp I would have preferred a different character (Boba, Jango, Lando...usual suspects) but will gladly add this one to my Jedi.

Only 1000. Wondering if he'll go faster than Vader or the Stormies...

I'm gonna go ahead and get this one after all.
I have just completed a bash but that'll do as a place holder until he arrives.

I'd take this over a Force Unleashed figure anyday.

I'm waiting to see how accurate the dart is.

Obi-Wan is pretty much the only SW character that I truly love so Sideshow has me over a barrel on this one.
It really sucks that he's likely on the Buck (I hope not... can we please start having some Jedi on a better body??!!?!)
