SSC Luke Skywalker Snowspeeder Pilot Sixth Scale Figure

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

So much entitlement going on here.

Call it whatever you want. This release epitomizes what sideshow has become top to bottom. They used to be a better company.

However I'm not the boss of the house.

You and me both, brother. You and me both.

I got mine yesterday. Ordered on day 1.
It's amazing, Sideshow did a great job on such an iconic figure. It's great all round and I'm glad I got it. The material for the jacket works well and the head sculpts look better in person, the unhelmeted head isn't great but it's no worse than HT Bespin Luke head. I'm happy, this one is going centre stage.

Edit: The stand is cheap, zero effort went into that.

Yes, they need to bring back their short-lived environment bases!

Oh come on!

Let's see....

They were really trying to copy this sculpt.

Looks more like Josh Brolin.

 

[YoNoSe]

The only thing I get from all those pics is that it looks the least like Josh Brolin.

Wait, is that Dexter?!

 

[abake]

From those pics, it actually looks like the SS is the better sculpt... but what do I know...

I think this figure looks terrific. Congrats to those who got one. I really want one myself, but since this is now gone, I'm rooting for an HT version close behind.

I'm of the same opinion as Wor Gar. This figure has grown on me and I wouldn't mind owning it.

I made my decision to wait on in hand pics which means I wasnt 100% sold. Now it's not available, but I'm somehow ok with that. So now I'll wait on a HT version.

I've grown to be patient in this hobby.

It's just a mystery why they decided to do such s small run. I mean there was no time between preorder and waitlist. Strange.

No mystery, they still have X-Wing Luke in stock and collecting dust. They need help in forecasting demand.

Yeah they really suck at judging popularity.

I actually preorded this back in September. Waitlist happens late April/early May.

Rogue One Vader went quick, about 2 months. As soon as they updated the details to show he included a blade AND hilt rather than just blade he was sold out.

 

[egel]

Meh, can't compare ES sizes between Sideshow and Hot Toys IMO.

 

[evenflow]

From those pics, HT has the better likeness.

What i really see is how much Sebastian Stan resembles Mark Hamill.

Yeah they really suck at judging popularity.

Only until Sideshow orders another batch from China and makes this available again for preorder in a couple months. And with a slight improvement that we'll call the V2.
