Yeah, I was frustrated by that also. :lol
I agree with all the comments above praising the game, though. Probably the best game I've ever played (other favourites are Deus Ex series and Dishonored) and sank 500 hrs into it since release. On the end of this run there was literally nothing I...
I kinda think it should, too, since it seems it will be a totally new Bespin version and not a Jabba's throne room re-issue (I'm assuming, too, that the block itself will also be a new sculpt with added lights and detail). Maybe once that's confirmed they'll split the thread off.
This is one of the few pieces I still wanted, so glad to see the announcement. I had expected it to be HT that released it, at some point, but happy it's SSC so long as the quality and detail is there.
On the product page it advises:
Not sure if that means certain countries can buy direct from Sideshow or if the figure itself will be made available to order overseas, but I would think the latter?
Yeah, that's how I ultimately felt, too, and part of why I liquidated my never displayed collection (among other reasons, biggest being I concluded I'd never be able to display it as it deserved and the fact it clashed w/my minimalism). I had a good $12k+ worth collecting dust in my basement. I...
Yeah, agreed. I can't see the delay being because they want to make less profit than they initially forecasted. They've been consistent that the extra goodies were chopped to keep the price down, so adding stuff for free or increasing the price to cover it are both non-starters, I would think...
Meh, worst comes to worst, there'll be custom options available. SSC has at least provided a very good base to work with (let alone for guys like Nathan to customize), so personally I'm not going to get bent out of shape about it. Seems we're all getting the same form letter and I don't expect...
Damn, wonder where weibo.com got thise pics? That's a fantastic headsculpt. Kinda wish I hadn't seen it as I expect it won't make release. Would be a nice bonus if they reverse course and include it, though. I'll fire off an e.mail later to add my voice to the chorus!
The Mountain is still flesh and bones, though, so any number of ways to destroy him. Looking forward to seeing what they do with him. Hope he doesn't get dispatched George Lucas style (i.e., built up to be super badass and then killed comically) before he does some cool stuff.
I don't blame them. They wanted to keep the costs down and there is only a subset of Jason fans that would want to display him without the mask (plus, let's be honest, SSC paint and detail... even a monster face like Jason's would likely *coughs* leave room for improvement, whereas I trust them...
Hmm, I still don't 100% take the rep's word for it, given how form lettery the response is. I'll assume it's 12" and it'll just be a bonus if it's more correctly proportioned at 13". It'll be on my work desk with no other figures around for comparison, anyway, so I don't think it'll bother me...
I have some faith that he will be taller than listed because of the description on the product page:
Agreed, the print just doesn't capture Jason at all, IMO. I would've preferred something more atmospheric. All my favourite shots of Jason in the movies are of him in a broader background, like...
