Star Wars TROS Rey 1/7 ArtFX Statue

Thought this one deserved it's own thread.

Always loved the ArtFX stuff from Koto so happy to see a Rey in the line and i honestly think she looks pretty great, really like the pose and likeness is pretty good!

Nice looking statue but after TLJ I've lost all interest in the Rey character.

Honestly i had no problem with Rey in TLJ, i thought she was great training with Luke and Daisy Ridley is still as likeable and charming as she was in Force Awakens.

It was pretty much everyone/everything else that i had problems with lol

I'm not really sure you call that training, the majority of the time it was just her following him around as he tried to ditch her.

I hate TLJ, but was thinking of getting it for a female Jedi. But that pose just feels off as time goes on. Why is she twisting around like that? Its like she is exercising her obliques/core.

Just feels weird and she is pricey for a casual purchase!

Not to sidetrack, but this^.

She never really trained. I suppose the third one seems to be on course to "reveal" something like she was a clone of some powerful Sith or Jedi, maybe genetically engineered for maximum force proficiency, or something like that. It might add some lore credibility to how she suddenly went from relative nobody to crazy powerful in matter of days (not even sure since the TLJ timeline is messed up to begin with). But at this point, I am not holding out for hope! Will just buy it when it comes out on disc if the reviews are decent......

Yeah training wasn't the right word but i think out of most in the movie she was one of the ones i didn't think was dumb or annoying....Poe, Finn, Rose, Holdo...etc movies a train wreck imo but i didn't come away disliking Rey is the point.

$180. I didn't think it was gonna be more than $150 tbh.

For $180 i'd expect a switch out arms or a light up saber at least.
