Do you have any scale comparison picks of Boba Fett with Sideshow's figures rubio? He looks really cool but I don't know if I should just continue being patient and wait for sideshows. I really like the paint aps on this one though. However, I don't want to bother if he doesn't fit in with the rest of my collection.

I can truthfully say that I don't own a single Sideshow figure. I'm not a fan of their work, generally. However, aside from the fact that this figure is SLIGHTLY taller than the traditional Medicom fare, I think you will be disappointed with it, in terms of scale, next to your existing Sideshow collection.

That said, BUY IT ANYWAYS!!!

It's truly fantastic!

Has anyone else received the figure, or just me?

I want to see other people's pictures!

Absolutely ____ing incredible. If that don't sell the figure nothing will. Mine is shipping next week, but your pics will not be beat. Maybe i'll make a quick youtube vid to be different.

Some of those shots look like a real person. (no wonder this is presoldout everywhere)

Great looking pictures.

What I dont like is how the bottom of the neck and chin is exposed. I wish they would have covered the neck up a bit more with ths jumpsuit.

A lot of that is down to the incredibly natural way the Medicom bodies hang. It's the main thing I've always liked about them, they're so easy to pose in a natural, realistic way.
 
Thanks, Os.

I'm having a really good time with the figure. You're going to love it!
 
I'm glad to hear it. Mine will be here sometime next week. This looks so damn good makes me almost want to pick up Jango.
 
looking at rubio's photos made me dug out my WIP boba. (medicom w/ HT TT slim) One thing that seems to really make a big difference on the new ROTJ Fett seems to be the tailoring of the body suit. There seems to be more room in the legs where as the ESB Fett has really slim fitting pant legs and that looks more screen accurate IMHO.
 
Wow Rubio great pics!

when I first saw these I thought you were comparing your previous pics to screencaps!

this Boba is just all kinds of awesome!
 
Nice shots Rubio! It really looks like a costumed actor. This shot is just all kinds of awesome. I know some are going to wait to get the possible Sideshows but I don't think they will be able to match the quality of paint. Now if HT does make this guy it could give it a run but that's if.

As the excitement builds for this figure I had to play with the ESB Medicom Boba. Now the body that Boba came on is a Grade A POS hunk of $h1t. About a year ago the left arm busted and I reattached it using epoxy and it work ok, flash forward to today, I am changing the the pose and the leg busted, Boy did I get pissed, and in the process of removing all the gear the right arm busted. As bad as that was I remained cool and calm, I love the ESB Boba so I decided to use the body from the Medicom Indy figure (which is for sale in the for sale thread, shameless plug I know). The Indy body appears to be a better quality plastic and less fragile. I did notice that things don't fit the same, the foot pegs dont fit in all the way and actually he is now taller by a good 1/4 inch, so now he is just a little shorter than the Sideshow Clone Troopers (I did a side by side pic). I had to cannibalize a figure but the end result was a taller Boba on a better body.

Do those chest plates move at all? Or are they just attached to the figure in the shot above really crooked?
