If this was a 1/6 announcement, I'd be happier than when I saw the new fett. I've wanted a Tarkin to go with Vader for years now, and Ss does such a good job with old.
 
Yep, saw it. Very happy to see this because it means the 1/6 is coming too. Hope they sell this soon.

:lecture

Tarkin and Dooku are the two glaring omissions (human) from the SW line. It's Cushing and Lee! C'mon!


But I'm happy for you PF collectors out there.
 
I was hoping it was a 1/6 announcement as well... when I first saw the image I was pretty excited. That faded quickly when I saw it was a PF :monkey2

Still pretty cool though and shows Sideshow is still willing to go pretty deep in the PF series.
 
Yarghhh, we're gonna get a 1/4 Chewie before get a 1/6 Chewie too, hunh??
 
This is cool, but I'll also consider the 1:6 because as I said the Stomie PF is most likely to be my last PF.
 
I was hoping more for a 1:6 figure. Maybe I'll rearrange my sith display and have PF Vader with Tarkin (if I get him) and Sith Eyes Anakin with Palps (if I get him). Right now I have both version of Vader together.
 
Had this been announced a year ago, I'd have been excited. Now that Hot Toys is doing Star Wars, I have vowed to never buy another human character from Sideshow. I will just wait patiently til HT gets around to that character. As far as clones and aliens go, Sideshow is fine.

Hot Toys doesn't have free reign on the Star Wars license so there's not going to be a 'getting around' to most figures.

I actually do realize that, and I know that a HT Tarkin is very unlikely, but unless SS somehow manages to match HT's level of work when it comes to head sculpts,texture and paint, I don't see me settling for something so inferior in quality.

The bar has been raised and there is no going back. at least not for me.

Edit... Funny I get carried away talking about 1:6 figures when it is a PF they are previewing.
 
Sideshow's sculpts have improved incredibly over the last few years. I bet they would ROCK a new sculpt of Tarkin. He's #1 on my 1:6th wishlist. The thought of the PF is tempting.
