Re: 4-LOM 12 inch figure
I was thinking it wasn't looking too bad looking but could be better. Doesn't look like he can hold his gun or pose much.
Glad to hear this is Medicom and I can look forward to better from Sideshow.

Re: 4-LOM 12 inch figure
I stand by my earlier post, though--this character deserves no better than Medicom
I'm sure Sideshow will get around to releasing a more decent looking figure after they (or they in conjunction with Hot Toys) come up with the 3PO body. Too easy and cheap to re-use that mold.
And now it all makes sense

Upated the title! I *knew* it was too cheap looking to be a Hasbro figure.

So funny how we have all let out one huge sigh of relief at discovering this is a Medicom offering and not a Sideshow one!
Even though it's got its problems, I was a little hopeful that this would mean Sideshow's Threepio was on its way.

Looks like a $20 Hasbro figure.

I still think it will look fine once its finished... but no way that is the finished product. Or if it is someone broke the neck.
But it is funny that people were complaining about the body when its got to be the same one used for the C-3PO figure and no one seemed bothered by the proportions (except for overall scale) on him

That reminds me. We need a figure of C-3PX! (He's the evil assassin version of C-3PO that's filled with concealed weapons.)
And i thought I was the only guy who wants one of him.
As he's part of the Bridge scene, i'd suspect so.

I THOUGHT it looked familiar. And as much love as the Medi 3p0 gets, i still stand by my earlier statement that properly painted up, this body makes a good 3p0.
Now that we can move forward, sideshow, give us a 4-lom with as much articulation as your IG88.

Just out of curiosity... how poseable was the C-3PO figure. I can't recall ever hearing reviews on that one.

Pretty damn posable, I mean for 3-PO. I just chuckled because everyone (myself included) ripped on this figure for looking cheap. And it's from Medicom. Who saw that coming?

Does not look good. Neck post is terrible. 4-LOM didn't have much of a neck.

Specifically how are the arms? Do they bend at all at the elbow, or are they fixed like that. And are the shoulders ball jointed?
Sorry to ask so many questions... but I have not found a good review of him yet

Man, I hate to say it but that thing look like $$$HHHIIITTT. Looks like Hasbro did a better job at a fraction of the price.

mwctoys.com has pictures that are a lot more flattering. It's Medicom styled, but it does look better than Hasbro.
I would still never expect or accept it from Sideshow. Not after the clone commanders, cantina aliens, and the first two bounty hunters.

Wow, I just now realized this is a Medicom. I'm glad it's not SSC!

There is a ball joint at the wrist and the shoulders. The head is on a ball joint and I believe the feet are too. They're awesome figures that do have a few issues (scale, price, etc.) but they look great. I sold my set because I knew they can't be too far off, especially now.

If it's Medicom then it's going to be over $100 and I feel bad for any sap that buys it.
