Sidius/Palpatine 2-pack

[Wor-Gar]

I like this bust:

My eyes...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the 2-pack I'm talkin' about.

 

[galactiboy]

I would be surprised at $120... seems the average is closer to $55 a piece. And I would hope there would be a **little** incentive to buy a two pack.

The Taylor Nova 2-pack was $75 when the regular POTA figures were $40 a piece... so I could see (and I hope a bit) that we might see a nice deal on these. But either way I think the top price would be $120.

 

[The Chaver]

Bet he'll have monkey arms....

Anyone? Anyone?

Monkey arms ha ha....

They'll always have monkey arms

well if it's that price, I'll just spend $30 more and get one medi maul.

Do you not like the bust?

The bust is great. I think Neil was referring to your sweeping judgment of a likeness we haven't even really seen yet.

Oh. Makes sense, I suppose. Gentle Giant's is just really spot on.

You mean, like, talking out your ass. Talking asses are prejudiced.

 

[TheObsoleteMan]

Palpatine looks fantastic! The lifeless poker face expression on Sidious is a disappointment though, especially compared to how over the top he was in the movie.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Repost for those that came late to the party...


He kinda looks like that old guy from Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom. If anyone here remembers that, you're too damn old.

At first I didn't see a really close likeness, although it was obvious who it was, then I realized it is mostly the paint that throws it off. I think its a great sculpt, although the furrows are a bit too deep and there is a major one missing in the cheek. The eyebrows are once again too thick and should be darker. Admittedly these are so totally minor I feel stupid pointing it out but...

I really hope the two pack isn't exclusive and can be picked up cheaper at a secondary retailer since this is going to need a serious repaint. He looks like he came out of Hollywood tans and he should be pale with liver spots.

Damn, I must be as old as Palpy...

Just so you know, the above picture is futzed a bit. I lightened it in PS and then added saturation to brings out the colors... causing him to look a bit tan.

But as long as he stays away from the "Faramir" factory in China, we'll be OK.

I jumped through this thread, but some people mentioned how they wanted the future OT Sidious to be cackling or serious. Well how about the evil smile he gives Luke when he says "You want this, don't you?".

Isn't that the factory that uses the lead paint?

 

[Wor-Gar]

Damn, I must be as old as Palpy...

That's the guy. What's his name... Marlon Perkins, right?

With a white stache, Palpy would kind of look like him. Do I see a custom?

 

[dekadentdave]

Actually I thought he kinda looked like Bill Murray:

I do hope we get a cackling sidious version down the line, maybe a ROTJ or ROTS Exclusive, really didn't expect the first to be all that animated...
