Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars Episode VII: Rey 1/6th Collectible Figure

[VivAdama]

Is Pepper's body pretty much the same as stock Rey with less boob? How did you go about removing the belt?

Actually it's a little different. The legs are different too. I had to use the Rey's legs on the pepper body, because the Potts ankles are not meant to receive Rey's pegs.
The belt can be opened to be removed, or by removing both arms you can pull it all the way. Pretty sure there are videos on youtube showing how to do.

Is the Potts body the same height as the Rey one? (Rey being undersized is a bit annoying)

pretty sure that it's the same size. But the figure isn't that undersized, heh. Next to Solo it looks pretty normal. The problem IMO is that the neck is too thin. I've thickened it on mine and it looks better.

I consider buying Rey & BB8 but here's the issue. Should I go for double pack or pick standard Rey and new TLJ BB8 which has more accessories (but lacks sand like stand)?

I would go for the single pack Rey because the new BB8 is a much better version and has cool accessories. But if you’re looking to save money and don’t care about all the accessories, the double pack is a great set.

You'd probably save money getting the Rey & BB-8 set from TFA.

We don't actually know if the new BB8 is better other than the accessories because the colors were similar on the promo photos for the first one. That said, if you don't care too much about the thumbs up, etc... in terms of $ savings and storage space/etc - you'd probably be better off with the package deal. Up to you of course.

Either way, they are both great figures and have a wonderful presence. Some of my favorites in my collection by far.

There have been some really good offers/prices on these recently so you might be able to find it for a good price. I have the Rey/BB8 set and I am glad I got it - it's a really nice set.

I am not able to shop at eBay. Paypal doesn't function in Turkey. Amazon.com is also expensive due to shipping and customs. Amazon.de is feasible since they don't charge VAT when sending outside EU. But standard prices are %10 cheaper than Turkey. So, it's not necessary unless there is a huge discount. Overall, sooner or later, it's certain I will pay a high price. The set will still be cheaper. I'll also probably display it without attachments. But more does not hurt. And, do you use the set's BB8 stand?

The new BB-8 does seem to have been painted with the more accurate brighter orange instead of a dull orange-brown, so if that's important to you (as it was to me) I'd probably get that one. Plus it's got the lighter.

My set arrived yesterday. Only my third HT piece and my first SW HT. Got a killer deal. $219 shipped brand new. Unfortunately they will have to stay in the box until we move later this year. No room to display right now.

Congrats, it's a great set! Wonderful shelf presence =)

Congrats. I love the set, although I'm still miffed that BB-8 didn't come with the lighter.

Awesome purchase price! I wish I got mine at that price too. But I really like this figure. It looks so good and has so many display options.

Check Amazon. They occasionally dip still. I grabbed mine for 180

 

[sithocan]

I bought single Rey (not opened the package yet) and POed TLJ BB-8.

Definitely my favorite figure from TFA. Looks great from any angle and so many different ways to pose and display it. Recently pulled her out for a photo shoot.

I'm selling my deluxe set if anyone is interested... never even taken her plastic wraps off... she's never been displayed, just opened to look at the face.

Dat lighting... Looks amazing there, man! If only I could make my display look that way haha.

The Rey/BB8 set and Kylo are easily my two favorite figures from TFA and probably in my top 3 in general... Though, I only have 9 figures at the moment.

They just look so good on a shelf
