Thanks, a lil' trooper evolution pic. Like the weathering paint apps & it's super detailed for a 1/10 cold cast porcelain statue.

Yeah, I own most of the Attakus 1/10 pieces myself and love them. How do the Koto ArtFX+ 1/10 pieces stack up? I've been considering hunting a few down to accompany my Attakus collection.

They're a smidge smaller but since they're made of PVC they have neater hard lines (cheaper too). Kotos also known for their sharp clean paint apps, the interchangeable parts & minimal articulation are great so you can display them in many different ways.

Collected the main characters so far, looking forward to getting ANH Obi-Wan. Personally think Kotos Star Wars line (IMO) is more realistic too compared to their other comic, video game, & film ARTFX+. Which ones are you thinking of getting?

Considering Jango, the Sandtrooper pair, AT-AT Driver, Snowtroopers, First Order Trooper pair + the single FO Trooper and Captain Phasma.

Sandtroopers plus Jango are quite rare & very expensive in the aftermarket. One of the reasons i'm thinking of getting the Attakus version since both their action poses are identical.

The rest are still available in stores or online. Impressed with Phasma's armor finish & the FO squad leader comes with additional pauldrons for the trooper twin pack.

Considering getting the non PVC Iron Studios Rey, Qui-Gon Jinn, & Palpatine from Brazil too.

The upcoming 1/10 version, Attakus = http://www.bigbadtoystore.com/bbts/p...21&mode=retail

Kotobukiya ARTFX+ = https://www.kotous.com/retailstore/p...fx-statue.html

Liking the Attakus version better since both blaster pistols are drawn.

Oh yeah... duh! I knew that was coming out but forgot as I dismissed it along with the rest of their upcoming Elite pieces as they're rehashes of the 1:5 scale versions of the statue, most of which I already own. It is a great pose however. I just wish they'd produce some original pieces like they did when the line launched as I'm not into buying smaller versions of statues I already own.

As for the Koto's I just pulled the trigger on Jango, the AT-AT Driver, the FO Stormtrooper pair and the single FO Stormtrooper after combing the web for the cheapest prices. Jango was a bit more than the others but still a good deal compared to what I've seen it go for. Averaged out I paid $61 a piece for all five. Seems like a good deal to me.
