Sideshow's Plan for Star Wars in 2007

[Khev]

The 1/6 scale Jabba the Hutt and his environment from the Star Wars line is impressively large, but 2007 promises even bigger things to come from that galaxy far, far away!

1/4 scale Jabba?

 

[dekadentdave]

1/4 scale Jabba?

Actually I think they mean 1:1 Jabba.

 

[Seth Gecko]

Only SW figs i have on order are the blackhole trooper,ventress,and fett.If SS makes a vader sidious or tyrannus count me in.

 

[dekadentdave]

But... they won't be in scale with your Medicoms.

 

[crasis]

I'm thinking Rancor, as well. Though a Tauntaun with Hoth Luke would be great, too.... hrm. :chew

Oh, dear...

 

[Seth Gecko]

But... they won't be in scale with your Medicoms.

And that don't bother me one damn bit

 

[dekadentdave]

Yup, a little short for a Stormtrooper.

 

[Khev]

I really hope SS has some grand plans for SW Premium Formats (not necessarily Jabba, but a good 4-6 announcements would be nice.)

 

[Buttmunch]

Yes, hopefully PF. I need a 1:6 break! So much stuff. I think I have to eliminate the Terminators for sure now, and maybe LotR. Star Wars and the Dead are really my "must have" lines right now. Oh why does money have to exist?

 

[Vader AL]

Oh why does money have to exist?

to give to Sideshow, of course.

 

[Vader AL]

I really hope SS has some grand plans for SW Premium Formats (not necessarily Jabba, but a good 4-6 announcements would be nice.)

I'm on board with that!

 

[tomandshell]

4-6?



I think I just have made romance explosion in pants...

 

[Darth Madden]

1/6th scale Death Star.

Mark it down!

Works for me.. but I'll have to buy a bigger table to put it on.

 

[Buttmunch]

to give to Sideshow, of course.

I'm at the point now where I might just aim to work at Sideshow to solve all my problems.
- work to buy collectables from the place where the paycheck comes from
- see new products everyday
- have a fun work environment
- be able to tease about upcoming products

Sounds like a dream job to me.

 

[Khev]

If they announce a 1/6 scale ewok village I will be all over that one. There has to be some method to the "3 endor rebel" madness.

It could be like a coffee table with trees on the ends to create a multi-angle display for ROTJ figures in the center of a room. Come on SS get on it!

 

[The Josh]

Just give me Maul in PF form in 2007 and I'm good as rain. 1/6th wise I can live without enviroments but will get them if they're made. Just give me more Jedi, Sith, S&V, Hero's, etc.

 

[Prime Clone]

That reminds me, I've been wondering about the feasibility of making 1/6-scale vehicles, eg. Luke's landspeeder.

And a 1/6 X-wing sounds crazy, but they could sell it in kit form ...

 

[Khev]

A 1/6 scale snowspeeder would definitely be feasible.

 

[jason2885]

Well a landspeeder could be possible its only 3.4meters long if you convert that to feet thats roughly 11.2 ft. If you take 11.2 ft and divide by 6 its only 1.9 ft or 22.3 inches. So it cant be no more than 12" wide and 4 inches tall. I think that they could easily do it for $250. Ok so now Sideshow since Ive already done the math and everything you need to make this along with Luke Tatooine Old Ben , R2-D2, and C-3PO. Those along with maybe a Tusken and Jawa 2 pack would be almost able to top Jabba setup from SDCC. Now this would be a sweet setup.
