Sideshow 1:6 Lando as Skiff Guard Figure

[slikkerias]

One thing I’m torn on with this figure is that I don’t think I’ll be getting Jabba unless there’s a different option than Sideshow’s $800 version. Seeing as he’s part of the Jabba’s Palace scenes.

What about the old Jabba? It’s pretty good and got cheap when the new one was announced. *

Wow, nice. I've never had much interest in his general outfit before, but that actually looks pretty damn cool.

And the sculpt looks pretty good too.

Saw this on Sideshow live this morning. Didn't see an additional head sculpt.

 

[jedibear]

Second headsculpt or not, it'll still be $265 or more

 

[FlyAndFight]

At that price, it will clog the SS warehouse until next year's Spooktacular...

 

[earthdog]

At which point I'll sweep in and buy it with the discount code and free shipping

Pretty sure everyone said the same thing about snowspeeder Luke...

Yup, this is a figure I'd want but would risk waiting for that discount and free shipping on.

Yeah, I could sorta see this turning into a situation where there’s a small batch made and once he’s gone, he’s gone. Sideshow kinda has an odd strategy with their figures it seems like. The ones people want don’t come back, but the ones that sit a long time and end up discounted come back for second and third runs (Jawas, Probe Droid, etc.).

 

[darth toffeeman]

Waiting for this to go up. Instant order for me.

Would much sooner own this than the Crait Luke. You simply cannot beat high end versions of childhood classics.

Indeed. Won't be surprised to see it come and go very quickly. And the drag about everyone claiming they'll wait until discounts before buying is another nail in the coffin for any new "risk" figures fro SSC. And that would be very sad.

They barely make many as is. What’s even gone up this year? Just the two Mythos figures? Before that Jabba I think but that’s essentially a re-tooled, re-release. This Lando is their most interesting upcoming release to me.

Yeah, after the rapid sell-out on Luke Snowspeeder, you don't want to wait on this figure. I'm ordering day 1.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Looked good at NYCC. There is definitely a (pretty good) Lando sculpt in there.

 

[Mike86]

Yep this is a day one pre-order for me too. I don’t know why they’re sitting on putting it up for pre-order.

 

[Chakaman]

Looks great. Day 1 pre-order for me as well.

 

[Jayrod88]

How many plan on buying a few to kitbash Jabba goons?

 

[Knightstalker]

Can not wait for this to go up for PO, instant buy. My only gripe is that he doesn't come with his holster and blaster. Hope that's added in.

 

[Jaycepticon]

Wow, he does looks good. Perhaps I will Day 1 PO this.

 

[jedibear]

Outfit looks great, detailing well-done. Put it up already!
