I just googled tusken raider weapons and it looks like the exclusive is based on an actual prop of some sort.

But they don't always skate in single file. And Hockey players and not easily startled. I'm finding some flaws here!

The exclusive weapon was actually seen in the film. The Tusken on the far right is holding it.
Nice exclusive, will be pre-ordering one.

True. And their shots aren't that accurate.
Maybe Sand People would be a bett.....No!

So much for writing off the exclusive.
It's only for orders of two or more. Yes, it's to keep people who order because they cant control themselves and helps keep ES in order. Personally, I'm in favor of NRD on items with what they do to keep wafflers from ordering.

Love the way the figure looks. I'll just be getting one figure myself but I I'll be ordering one none the less.

This is pretty a awesome release. Very interested.

Thank you, Sol.This will be your first SS SW figure? It can get out of hand quickly and I've seen LOTS of people go overboard right off the bat, myself included, so if I can give a little advice it would be to stick with what you really love. It's easy to go from Star Wars to Batman to Marvel etc., not that there's anything wrong with that but it's not a bad idea to start slowly.
Well, first one I'll actually be getting with an exclusive. I picked-up Greedo and Hammerhead (along with cantina table/chairs set) locally because even for bit parts those two always had big roles in my imagination as a kid. Then I broke down and pre-ordered Bespin Luke (so I guess that is my first exclusive, come to think of it...) and Boba Fett and put IG-88 on flex, so I'm already pretty deep into this but I've sort of convinced myself that it's OK as I'm in catch-up mode and things will slow down considerably once the pre-orders and flex stuff is out of the way. I've sworn off the dewback and Sandtrooper (definitely one of the nicest pieces Sideshow's done, though) but think I will pick up the cantina environment when it's released in the summer, assuming someone local carries it. Definitely don't want to pay shipping and all the other extras on a big piece like that.
Already display is becoming a bit of a concern, though. 12" with environments/vehicles really does present some issues. One of the things I was thinking about was not displaying everything at once. Think I'd be OK once enough stuff is released to rotate displays between having one or two environments and related figures on display, so alternate between Tattooine/Hoth and Bespin or something along those lines. We're going to be moving in the next year or two so I may get more space, but also sort of concerned as someone else mentioned in another thread about Star Wars kind of overwhelming the space and it becoming like a shrine or something... Plus, there's always my wife to consider, lol, she's pretty good but don't wanna push it!
In regards to other lines, although I'm a huge Marvel fan, the 12" line doesn't appeal to me too much, so I'm lucky there. Could see picking up a 1:6 Dr. Doom for my desk or something, but it would begin and end there. Actually quite like them in the 3 3/4" line as they seem to work better for me on display as the colours are super bright and stand out, and they're just a bit bigger in stature than my SW stuff.

Yep, definitely. Please don't mess that up, Sideshow!
Yeah, the 3 3/4" was sort of the gateway drug but I've sworn them off in favour of getting a few SSC/HT pieces in lieu of tons of Hasbro. Although the detail and accuracy are great, especially in comparison to what I grew up with, in the end they're too small and I don't get a lot out of looking at them anymore loose. I never got too crazy into them, maybe 20 or so of the Vintage carded figures, so will either keep them around or maybe just sell them as a lot in order to clear them out.
Haha, I laughed out loud when I read that. Always liked that line!
Think you're better off to just fork over the cash for the exclusive, honestly. Although I get why people buy and part stuff out over e.Bay, I kinda resent it too in a way. I'd rather pay Sideshow than someone preying on collectors or just not buy the exclusive. The prices being asked for the IG-88 exclusive were just ridiculous, IMO, and kind of soured me on people that buy exclusives only to try and sell for a huge mark-up.
Good eye on the EX being in the movie, everyone!

Pfft. Some SW fan. I remember seeing the weapon in ANH when I was 6 years old.

I'm not a huge dio fan, but I'm considering putting together a little one for this. Bit of sand for the sand people.
