Sideshow Mythos General Obi Wan Kenobi statue

They should be embarrassed that THIS was the head sculpt they put out seven years or so after the original. WTH

Is it just me? Just a thought.... Interesting how they have chosen to create it this way for this particular statue.

It's a somewhat common artistic embellishment (certainly in 2D artwork, and now, 3D) meant to portray some extra glow at the emitter. Probably depicted as early as in original concept art. I despise that effect.

i have to agree with you.

I haven't been keeping up with this. So this is a sincere question, not a sneaky backhand. But is it meant to be Ewan Mcgregor?

My biggest regret in collecting has to be selling the original Mythos statues I had. SS will never make that level of awesomeness again and everytime I look the OG Obi-Wan is selling for current 1/3 scale prices.

I must say, when the pics appeared, I wasn't impress at all. I got the piece anyway (for a steal) and, despite the paint application on the face, I had to change my mind: the statue has a nice presence, pose and base are very solid and all in all, I have to say I prefer it over the newest darth maul mythos (!).
A couple of weeks ago though, I managed to get the Boba Fett mythos and now all the other statues look so stupid and ugly to me - damn, the original line (hand sculpts) is so much better, vibrant then the newest (digital scupts), just another level

Wish I would have bought one. Hopefully the new series will inspire a new PF or Mythos statue from them. Kenobi is my favorite SW character.

I regret not getting the Gammorean, I got the original Obi-Wan and sold it and don't regret that :P
