I have to say that Koto are IMO the best company for Star Wars figure poses. If only Gentle Giant were as good.

Don't forget the paint applications. Koto's paint work is just as topnotch as their sculpting. And I like that they're hard to actually "hurt" being that they're vinyl, you drop them they're still intact, and dusting them is a breeze!

There are still so many characters I would like Kotobukiya to make.

How about you guys?

Their releases are about as slow as Gentle Giant's, but Koto's have better action poses in my opinion. I just wish the Shock Trooper had been a new sculpt instead of just a repaint.

Man that is awesome.

I wish their stuff was resin.

Resin would definitely be better. Koto stuff is nice because it can be blended in with the GG pieces pretty seamlessly. So I think of them as $100 placeholders :).

I love this piece, even though I'm not into Koto's. The base makes it, really nice touch.

Hey cap, just when I got used to your old avatar, you go and change it.

Looks great but shipping for starwarsshop.com hit me hard getting the shock trooper might have to look at ebay

I do like the Kotobukiya Star Wars line, Obi wan and Anakin eps. III are not good though.

Why have Koto not made a grevious or a Darth Sidious yet?

Or some of the Jedi's?

They made two Yoda's and a Mace Windu, but Mace Windu could be better, they should do Shaak-Ti.

Damn, this ones old. Anyone got in hand pics? Or at least any comments on this piece? Thinking about picking one up to go with the new Commander Cody.

I was just looking for some info on this guy. I had no idea he was released so long ago. :laugh:

Got a chance to pick one up on the cheap. Seeing how old this is has me worried that Koto won't release the other Commanders though. From the pics I've seen, this and Cody are among the best looking Troopers I have come across.

I'm hoping they'll do Captain Rex at the very least. They could pretty much repaint this statue blue and call it a day.

As far as I know the only Clones Koto has done since those are the animated ones. Not sure if they have more realistic style Clones in the works but you could always ask Gonk in the "Ask Kotobukiya" thread.
