Sideshow Darth Maul Sixth Scale Figure

[chrisstbh]

It's an excellent figure, I think you'll be very pleased.

I've watched some video reviews. I've always loved Maul and Clone Wars/Rebels have made me love him even more. Definitely one of my top characters.

I hope Sideshow keeps revisiting their older PT figures, if they bring this level of production design (the way they solved Maul's boots is brilliant) and craftsmanship to characters like Anakin, Obi Wan, Windu and Qui-Gonn, I'd be all over them.

Just got mine at the local hobby store, and I am mightily impressed!
A very simple (some might say bare-ones) figure in terms of extras and gear, but fantastically executed.

The head sculpt looks brilliant, the fabric and cut of the outfit are fantastic, the body works great, and what little accessories there are -extra hands, lightsaber, belt- are excellent.
I have to say I find this to be one of Sideshow's best figures, if not the best figure of theirs I have. Just standing there with his double lightsaber (I like the new one a lot better than the old one) he looks amazing.
Very happy I got it.

I'm not too happy with the saber. It's thicker and more pronounced but the whole blade is curved like it wasn't cured long enough after molding. I tried softening it up with really hot water (not boiling) to straighten it but it's still warped and doesn't look right. Any ideas? While I do love the figure, for the price and few accessories, what they did give us should have been pretty spot on. My old sabers look fine but still.

It was the exact opposite for me, the blades on the first figure came bent and I never could straighten them out, whereas these new ones are well-nigh perfect.

The lightsaber for mine was straight as were the blades and they fit in snug.

Still wish it came with the outer cloak.

Hmm, guess it's not widespread problem then. Maybe I'll send them a pic and try to get a replacement.

You can buy some 3mm acrylic bar and cut it to shape. I use that for sabers all the time.
It also absorbs UV light and so you can use a UV torch to light it up.

Where did that flat chested ballet dancer come from and why is she wielding a light saber and wearing clunky space boots?

Sorry. I didn't mean to offend.

You didn't have to take the pics down. I wasn't offended, just highly amused. Now my comment makes absolutely no sense. LOL!

Pretty awesome figure. The old saber looks better than the bent ones they sent. Robe is great.

Honestly if the figure came with the cloak and a base similar to what you have along with the accessories he has stock and maybe add the exclusive as part of the regular package this figure would have been worth getting. Looks really good in this picture.

If someone on here were to make custom cloaks I would buy one.

Mere words couldn't describe it. Username would have to repost those pics.

It was just meant to highlight how easy it was to fabricate custom blades. I just assumed every comment afterwards would be related to yours. And that figure was only thrown together for those pics. I have already deleted them from my photobucket gallery.
Here's the same saber in the hands of another custom that hopefully won't be as distasteful.
It's all about the saber blade, not the figure.

Sorry, Username. It was an innocent joke. It just struck me as funny. Not meant as a mean spirited comment or a jab at you at all.

Just search Ebay for 3mm acrylic rod. It comes in many colours and lengths. Just cut it to size then sand the end to a point.

Just received it ; the most beautiful head sculpt that Sideshow has ever produced in my opinion.... good body and articulation too.
Great figure !! [emoji1360][emoji1360][emoji1360]
