1/6 Hot Toys MMS - Episode III ROTS Anakin Skywalker (Dark Side) Collectible Figure

[Hydeous]

I don’t see new collectors relating to the Skywalker era Star Wars, if any, in the future.

And even then, HT will prolly will most likely release another ver with the toasted body exclusive or something lol

 

[Wor-Gar]

Hard to collect Star Wars without a Skywalker involved... at least until the Mandalorian.

Really, it only leaves Rogue One and Solo right now.

 

[Hydeous]

Yeah, but with the directions disney’s Going, they are trying to close the Skywalker chapter with Rey and try to expand more with other characters.

Compared to the begins suit Batman which was also exclusive figure, the price didn’t go up that high.

 

[Wor-Gar]

They'd be smart to do that. It's a wide galaxy. And they've exhausted the old cast, literally.

But then as long as Ewan is alive, there will be Kenobi temptations.

 

[Hydeous]

Yeah, that’s why Hamill was adamant of TLJ Luke script originally, cause he don’t think Luke’s the type of character to give up and get depressed and lost. Especially not after he attained to Jedi hood and convinced Vader to turn to the light side again.

But it is what it is, I still enjoy the current story and will continue watching it. Though I haven’t bought any figures from the new trilogy.

Ewan Kenobi movies would be awesome. Especially if they decide to pick up in between eps 3 and 4 era.

I haven't either, but its mostly because I haven't been enjoying the new Star Wars. I never wanted them to include the Skywalkers and Solos from the beginning.

I would have liked an all-new trilogy that moved beyond the Skywalkers. Let their memory be lore, but lets see how that lore affects new characters.

Anyway... I have RO.

I wasn't a fan of TLJ, but I did enjoy TFA. And I didn't have an issue with both Han and Luke being killed off because I understood from the very beginning that this was likely going to be a passing of the torch trilogy. You could argue the circumstances surrounding their deaths all you want, but I didn't mind that it happened.

As I just mentioned, I considered this new trilogy to essentially be a passing of the torch from the very beginning, so I can understand how the deaths of the old characters are meant to sort of propel the new characters into the limelight.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I wish I liked the new characters.

I did like Han Solo dying though.

 

[SilverStar17]

Reylo I'm still somewhat interested in. Others, I've kind of checked out. Finn was actually arguably my favorite character in TFA and the one that I think could have been the dark horse character on who could have been the "next" Jedi, but I thought his character was a bit of a letdown in TLJ.

I have enjoyed both of the movies but the casino scene was my Jar Jar. It reminded me of an episode of Rebels or Clone Wars and i would have not had an issue with it in one of those shows. That said i loved the rest of it and i hope they do a part 1 and 2 for the last one to finish everything up without rushing anything.

If I had some spare funds and have already got the primary figures from the OT and Pt, I’d prolly be interested in getting Rey, Kyle and some of the old Luke’s.

I dozed off a couple of times during RO. Only scene I enjoyed was the final Vader scene.

 

[Hydeous]

That being said, the name of the dog that I just got last year’s called Rey

Took some time to set up Anakin yesterday. Not 100% satisfied with the pose but close enough to what i want to achieve in the end. Will try and refine when i have some more time in my hands.

 

[Hydeous]

For a split second I thought he was sitting cross legged as if he’s in a sofa

 

[tedzeppelin]

sorry - you've had to switch the batteries out a lot? yes I've had to switch them a ton.

Yeah, pose looks kinda goofy from that angle. Still a lot of work to get a natural feel to it. I wish the body was more flexible. Trying to bend that torso and tilt the head back but they refuse to stay put.

very nice!

It's like one of those Russian dancers... I keep expecting Anakin to raise his arms and say: Hey!
