New Anakin advert. "Intense" headsculpt FTW.

 

[CaptSpock]

There we go, that's much better than the first shot of the angry head we got. Thanks, he looks really great!

 

[Kunanuk]

Mafex Vader looks better.

But seems like the best one is still Bandai Model Kit.

I'll wait for the Black Series one too.

Bandai is good enough if you customize him, but I think this new MAFEX will beat it.
The new TBS Vader looks so nice, but I think TBS figures never will be better than any of the current japanese lines.

Something to take note of from the recent Fwoosh article showing those new Anakin images:

Okay, after some confusion I think we have all of this sorted out. For the most part. Early order incentives for Anakin are the angry head and the two lightsabers he has in the Dooku fight. The standard version of Anakin only comes with the neutral head and his own lightsaber. All of the extras are included with the early incentive. Two heads, extra hands, and three lightsabers. Now that begs the question, does that mean there is a standard version coming later, or is it all exclusive and only fast, early orders get all the extras?

Nah, not a chance, from the get go you can already tell both the proportions of the BS and Bandai Models are still MUCH better than the new Mafex one.

The Mafex one is surely an improvement over the old one, but it really doesn't even touch the before mentioned, keep in mind I hate the BS line, but even that new Vader looks better than Mafex's.

I don't know how or why they have that but, sold.

Anakin looks great. Really sucks that it's a web exclusive, but hopefully he does get general release like you said. But i guess the exclusiveness makes him more collectable

 

[Guff]

Wow, that's surprising about the speeder bike, but I don't need it as I'm quite happy with my Black Ser.....whoops I've ordered it.

 

[paintpot]

Official Chewie pics are up on thefwoosh

 

[GodParticle]

No interest in prequel stuff, but that anakin sculpt looks good. The obi-wan, however, looks terrible =/

I hope they got the scale right on chewbacca. He looks kinda short

Edit: Yeah, seeing the promo shots he's way too short...wtf

I was surprised to see SHF biker scout and speeder bike at HLJ too.... Managed to get one since I don't have any as the price was at least US$150 when it was released.

Anyway, SHF Anakin PO is out at Nippon Yasan now.

Nicer paint and natural-ness(?) than Black series. I like how they're still using the digital colouring on an alien figure, including the hair highlights it seems

 

[Big Deano]

That doesnt make much sense from what I know of figuarts. If those items are "first run" bonuses, then he isnt a web exclusive as he would only have one run anyway; tamashii dont reissue web exs unless they are repaints in my experience, it goes against their own ethos.

Lucky you, its sold out now!

 

[wolverine_x]

SHF Chewie's height is kinda too short, but I will still get him.

 

[paintpot]

Maybe the figure with the accessories is the exlclusive, hence why the sheet scan apparently says that he only comes with two lightsabers. That could be describing the web exclusive bonuses, since he definitely comes with three if you look at the pics. They all have distinctly unique handle designs
