SDCC Exclusive Lt. Falcon

[teemu]

Ba-dum... TSH!



I know, I read your post and looked at my timestamp on it and 'd.



Probably just for the SDCC Ex. If it's not, no biggie. The smaller boxes save storage space for more. Come to think of it, you should be a fan.

hopefully it is...I like the layout of the bigger boxes, so you can see ALL the assessories.Plus,the shipper is smaller and more prone to being crushed travelling to the East Coast.

I am a fan of the figures.No complaints here,I just don't like the change of the box if its going to be that way for now on.I guess we will find out next month with Crimson Guard.

Lt just arrived HOR. Wow, talk about slim box size. But hey I kind of like it, takes up less space.

Got my Falcon. Great figure. Best Sideshow line ever. Yada Yada.

 

[Chainsaw]

Yup, Falcon is a great addition. True to the original figure right down to the battalion patches.

Just needs a old school shotgun and a knife for his webgear.

Don't see how any Joe fan could pass on him.

Great camera work and awsome pics!

 

[Bonehead15]

Very happy with mine. He's almost perfect.


The smaller box doesn't upset me much but I still like the older design better. I wish though SS would go back to using the styrofoam cushions though in the shipper boxes.

Got mine at 8:15pm...must have been the last stop for my UPS driver.

In the bush...

Inspection:

 

[Davestro]

Box is okay and decreases the shipping package by almost half. Don't like the bubble wrap being the only thing protecting the box...I see a lot of dinged boxes in the future if Sideshow goes with this new package.

Just sucks for MIB collectors because all the awesome looking gear is hidden now.

 

[Khev]

Does anyone keep Sideshow figures Mint in Box?

That's why you open 'em and gear 'em up!

EF has a great display where he puts the figs in front of their boxes (or used to). And with the boxes being completely collector friendly, there's really no reason not to. MIB can still mean opened and displayed.

Yah, yah, yah. I know man. I'm way in the minority on this one. I might end up cracking one day.... My you room is pretty much an all MIB display except for some vintage SW items. MIB is how I roll. For now...

One of these days we're gonna talk you into it!

For tempting goodness, check out King Darkness' collection. If ever there was a bastich who could entice you to open your dollies, it would be his awesome pics.

 

[sithjedi171]

These figures are really to badass not to open I know. Just haven't been able to bring myself to do it. I'm neurotic about it.

I used to be that way too, until the economy tanked and my garage full of kiddie garbage became worthless. I've been an opener since that day and don't regret it a single bit.

 

[sithjedi171]

^^^

By kiddie garbage do you mean stuff like the 120 plus SW 12" action collection figures I have that are unopened and practically worthless now ? If so I know what you mean.

I've got plenty of Hasbro crap I wish I had never bothered with...

Got him today, I was messing around with him in my backyard lol, got a few pics to share

 

[Deeznutz6]

i know how you feel man. i am a MIB also, but i just buy doubles to open.

You mean going back to the old shipper box design. This is how they did it normally early in the Star Wars line.

Does anyone keep Sideshow figures Mint in Box?

I do both. I do MISB primarily, but I always get a second copy to open of the figures I like. And in the Sideshow Star Wars and GI Joe lines...that has equated to two of every figure.

The more recent ones, Falcon, Bacara and a few others, I still need to get sealed copies of.
