https://ibb.co/dEdV5w https://ibb.co/dWOKyG Longtime lurker first time poster, I love the figure as others mentioned, better likeness coming up but can never have enough spare Amazons around.

But flexpay's after the item ships, so if you could pay the flex pay payments immediately following the pre-order, it'd be different. Flexpay is also a strict payment policy as well, a more relaxed pay as you will option would be much more friendly and convenient.

I've been a long time Sideshow fan, but I'm also a longtime videogame fan. It occured to me today that one major difference between the two is how I pay for them. When I reserve a video game, I plunk down a minimum $5 and reserve a copy. Sometimes over a year before the actual release date. But...

Re: Sideshow or Hot Toys for SW 12 inch? Hot Toys has much more important things to do, like other licenses. The last thing we need is yet ANOTHER company pouring all its resources in the retarded monster that is the SW license. It devastated Sideshow's product lineup ever since, and no doubt...

As much as I love She-hulk, this is a disappointment to me, she's just not buff enough. It's Marvel's ridiculous "human supermodel painted green" She-hulk, I'd much rather have a Joe Jusko inspired version. She has HULK in her name for F's sake...lol

Videogame figures in general could be hit and Miss. Mastercheif would sell, I'm sure Drake would and maybe Chloe, but figures from say Call of Duty nobody would really care about, COD sells for its faceless MP, not its characters or story. Personally, in terms of great designs and awesome...

Though you bring up a good point, the question remains largely moot. Most of the major characters from the early Weta line are unattainable for any decent price. I'm not suggesting every single Sideshow piece will be superior, I'm saying I can think of only 3 Weta pieces which truly CAN'T be...

I think maybe the intention is to make the maquettes be more accurate representations of the characters themselves. Aragorn is more a loner than a warrior outright for example. Boromir is a general, not merely a diplomat sent to Rivendell etc. Gandalf is just Gandalf I suppose...lol

Re: Aragorn Maquette - Order NOW, link in 1st post. I'm no expert, but these seem to be more complex castings than the original SSW stuff. I know for a fact that the original Aragorn (son of arathorn) from SSW was only 4 pieces excluding the base, a rather simple casting job. These new figures...

Looks great to me, I'm super excited about this line, and thrilled to death they're not making the Fellowship in their fellowship attire for once, especially Boromir. Looks like the line might actually celebrate the entire trilogy instead of giving us a thousand boring green cloaks. Bring on...

Heavy Rain - 8/10 - Must play for the uniqueness and story alone. Some plot holes and graphical glitches keep it from perfection. Modern Warfare 2 - 6/10 - Pathetic single player campaign and rehashed multiplayer with even more bugs. Essentially a $60 map pack. Uncharted 2 - 10/10 - Amazing...

I'd MUCH prefer Boromir's actual cloak as opposed to the boring flimsy Lorien cloak. His Gondorian one has beautiful clasps and fabric patterns that are never shown off in favor of the usual Fellowship obsession. These pieces are about the characters, not the Fellowship, and Boromir's Gondorian...

I was at the Boston exhibit also, there was no glass around the Boromir, in fact some kids on a field trip thought it was an actor who was gonna pop up and scare them. The Sauron also wasn't a 1:1 replica, it was the actual Sauron armor posed on a metal display in a badass pointing pose. Other...

Sideshow has a similar line of 1:6th statues for Adam Hughes' version of the marvel ladies that are only $150, so that's the price I'm guessing we'll get.

I knew you'd be pleased...lol

Agreed. I'd personally love a "Prologue collection" Featuring Elendil, Isildur, Numenorean, High Elven Infantry, Armored Elrond and Gil-Galad. Only ONE of which was represented in the Weta 1/6th line.

Certainly not intending to be antagonistic about the issue, everything said is certainly only my opinion. Still, its a moot point imo. Unless SS is reissuing the Weta sculpts, saying this line shouldn't exist because it would devalue the Weta line is really stretching the boundries of...

I agree that I could care less about the downgraded "value" of Weta's line, if there is one. Your Weta Aragorn no longer worth $800? Good, maybe that'll allow newcomers to get one. These things aren't the stock market, they're meant to be in the hands of fans. And as mentioned before, this line...

Sounds solid to me woodsy. Although I do appreciate the break from villains atm, how many orcs do we really need in light of non-produced heroes. Not that we've seen any yet...lol

EXACTLY, that Gandalf and Legolas are like WTF, SW Unleashed.
