Premium Format Boba Fett Premium Format Figure - New Version

[marker2037]

The reason it's delayed has nothing to do with the Boba production itself. That hasn't even started. It's delayed because the factories are behind on all the other pieces SS is producing. It's just a backlog and you can expect this from every future release.

you might think there are so many factories in china that they have more then just one supplier no ?

 

[budafett]

Ah delays delays and delays. Don't count on having Fett until 2016!

I'm so glad I can look at my Mythos Fett anytime I want.

There's probably a huge backlog by now

First part of '16 is when this will get delivered. Seems like just about everything in the month of December usually slips by a month or two.

Definitely. I don't expect any listed shipping date to be accurate I always factor in 2+ months.

I was a little disappointed to get the flex pay delay email today, but I can't say I'm surprised since everything has been shifting backwards. I just hope we get that Vader PF pre-order next month.

Don't get your hopes too high with regards to the Vader PF...


posted yesterday.

He needed more adjustments recently, which has pushed him back, so we're looking at an early 2015 release at this point (unless something occurs that would push it back again)

Finally preorderd Boba...

Don`t care if he could be PVC as the first PF, and with this "downward pose" its very likely polystone could be too heavy...

I expect Boba landing to european Retailers not before summer/fall 2016....

Maybe just in time, when the rumoured Boba Fett Spin-Off will arrive at cinema?

 

[DarthChrisDK]

I think PVC is here to stay. They've done it in the past, and with the new releases across all lines have these (imo) awkward poses on very tall bases, PVC is probably like to get chosen more often.

My wallet greets this news gladly.

 

[marker2037]

Likewise, I can wait till next year for the Vader pre-order.

 

[Python]

Me too.... Don't forget the LSF will be revealed next year also.


As for Boba, people are jumping to far too many conclusions about PVC, it is in every thread it seems. SSC have stated 99% of stuff will still be polystone. I do care and would never pay such prices for plastic personally. So I will wait for confirmation... simple.

The use of PVC in this Fett is not a very big jump of conclusion considering the use of it in the 1st Fett PF. With the much more dynamic pose of this compared to the 1st I would bet my whole collection PVC will definitely be used here.

Like I have said before tho as long as the figure looks good it's a done deal!!!

The armor of course, I mean the whole thing. It doesn't mention it on the pre order page so it shouldn't be pvc. Some people may be happy with pvc, I'm just not personally and simply won't buy it if it does turn out to be plastic. No problem although it will be a shame to miss out on a cool looking piece. Again though, it is all assumptions...

The original armor on Boba Fett was basically plastic. What would you like on the PF?

I think you've miss read my post, I said the Armor will no doubt be plastic, and that is fine. But there is no reason for the whole figure to be so...

 

[dao2]

Armor in original PF was not plastic, just under body.
