Great stuff. Not my shots, but I love this too.

Those joints are so unsexy tho.

True, but they made the right call leaving them exposed. The joints could have been covered with rubber, but Hot Toys rubber is notorious for quick deterioration issues. Maybe they'll solve the problem by the time they get around to slave Leia.

Edit: Seems I made the right call jumping on the HT Leia when I did. Sold out on Sideshow and BBTS a few hours later, and second hand sellers are selling her for absurd prices now.

I actually like the card art the best lol, I agree the face is kinda 'meh'. I was looking at the Black series Slave Leia but the nature of this incarnation means all the joints are exposed and I didn't like the look of it:

Oh, I picked this up as well:

I feel like at this point if we want a Leia with a decent face that isn't >$200 it'll have to come from a Japanese company.

Maybe Kotobukiya can make a Bishoujo figure for her.

Without those joints they couldn't have gotten those poses though.

Not true. If they were sculpted that way, they could have had those poses (and only those poses) forever!

But if they were sculpted that way what would happen when the owner got tired of that pose?

Actually, Kotobukiya's ArtFX+ Star Wars statues aren't bad, since they come with alternate parts that let you swap out poses and stuff.

I don't own it personally, but from what I've heard, people are less than thrilled with the face sculpt and hair.

Still waiting for an SH Figuarts Leia.

I'd probably buy it.

Also an Episode III Obi-Wan.

Lmo911 · Dec 29, 2016

Boush was always my Leia of choice, picked her up off Amazon while everyone else bought up the ANH ones.

And for christmas I got a Death Trooper Model Kit to go with the rest of my desk buddies.

Note: I have too many desk buddies :X

Bandai is going in hard on SW so I can't imagine the wait will be too long. Figuarts Grievous, however, will probably join the likes of Nappa and Buu from DBZ as Display Only pieces for a billion years.

Bandai pls

Bii · Dec 29, 2016

Was going through some of my boxes and noticed I had two SH Figuarts Captain Phasma. Not sure how that happened; I'm usually pretty good about not buying doubles. >_<

On that note, I'm sure we'll get Buu and (I fucking hope) a SS3 Goku re-release as the second part of Kai starts here in the States.I feel like recent released have been tied to whats airing here.

I'm still salty that I bought an OG Broly and Cell then a couple weeks later the SDCC Broly and Premium Cell where announced.

This is what happens when you listen to that venomous snake, Diggeh.

Zombine · Dec 29, 2016

They seem to have gotten the supply in check for the SH Figuarts Star Wars figures. You could get Han whenever you wanted the day he dropped.

Don't mind me though--Just going to sit here and patiently wait for General Grievous.

hes never coming out.

LiK · Dec 29, 2016

I hated Grievous as a character but I still love his design. Might pick up the figure whenver that comes out.

For real? Hair looked ok in the pics. Surprised they'd both a main character figured of all things.

Zombine · Dec 29, 2016

I think Ami Ami likes me again now that I pay for my orders on time. I should let one lapse just to keep them on their toes.

the reality of the situation is I only order what I REALLY want and I set a hard limit for each month.

They actually seem less likely to get pissy if you just don't pay as opposed to asking for cancellations.

Figma Corrin preordered the second I saw it.

Also y'all know I'm a huge Figma fan.

I also just managed to order the Figma Zero Suit Samus from Amazon JP arriving in 3 days

Haloid1177 · Dec 29, 2016

Apparently the HT TFA Luke is delayed cause of licensing issues with Hamill. First delay that had that reasoning in the email for me.

I got the email also but no mention of licensing issues. Just said it's delayed.

Mine had "actor likeness" scattered throughout which makes me think Hamill didn't sign off on what they had done, since I believe he gets final say on all toys of him.

It's very simple--DON'T BITE THE HAND THAT FEEDS YOU AMIAMI PLS FORGIVE THIS MAN

There you go Sah! Buy all the figma! All of them. All. Of. Them.

KoruptData · Dec 29, 2016

Yeah. I saw the "Luke Skywalker Actor Likeness" and thought that was weird.

SumptuousLemur · Dec 29, 2016

I purposely don't shop with AmiAmi because of their draconian policies.

I like to have the option to cancel and such, if that means I pay a bit extra with BBTS, Amazon Japan or HLJ so be it.

I won't support those types of practices.

Indecisive collector's unite!
