This statue is a poster child for why I personally just don't care for mixed media statues. I just feel like it really takes the "premium" feel away and kind of makes what it's made out of irrelevant. I mean the statue looks fine.....yes. But if I'm going to appreciate/admire/whatever the quality of a statue I pay this much for, I would much rather focus on sculpting ability than sewing ability.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Star Wars doesn’t have a very good track record of holding values. Only time I saw prices rise is when Force Awakens came out.

I agree it makes it look like a 1/4 scale Hot Toy Doll..

I'm not a fan of mixed media either. Sculpted beats fabric any day.

I love mixed media. no issue with that for me personally. Having said that, I am surprised no other company has taken on fully sculpted, aside from the few that xm did.
attakus did a wonderful job and can be had for cheap, if you are ok with 1/5 scale...just stay away from the human characters : )

This popped up on Sideshow Collectibles website today on the main page. It feels like this piece has been around since i first got into 1/4 scale. The piece looked odd back then. Today, seeing it again, it didn't look too bad. Has a slight cartoon edge to it.
At 1600 units, they made a ton of them, 12+ US ton's to be precise.

This picture.. looks like he forgot to zip (button) his pants.
btw, one of the few occasions a company has left space between his fingers on his 'closed' hand. Sometimes I hate when the hand is cast as one block. Now it is separated, but not really needed lol..

The piece looks average to me, not the best but has its charms

Honestly I would love to grab this piece. Just hard to justify the price.
