What do you guys think, is this the new one? This was all the info previously gathered. We see the new base, but nothing else seems to have changed.

Just a moment...

Sideshow Elisse: Hello!

me: hello!

Sideshow Elisse: Yes that is correct.

me: oh, ok, cool beans. You wouldn't happen to know what will be different about the variant would you? [grin]

[grin]

Sideshow Elisse: Our production team is currently in the works of making a similar Demithyle, it will be the same character.

Color scheme will be different and the base will be different

me: ok, thanks for the info Elisse, appreciate it. Have a good one

Sideshow Elisse: You're welcome!
Have a great day!

We are actually in the works of producing another Demithyle; however, the base will be different and the color scheme will be different as well. Please stay tuned to our weekly newsletter for updates.

Please do not hesitate in contacting me if you have any further questions.

Fire away....

That's just the old Reaper on Mortighull's base.

The new one is supposed to be a whole new colour scheme, new cut & Sew etc.

If Sideshow are planning on actually releasing that then a lot of owners of the original are gonna be super pissed off.

So is that the new one or is there another Reaper SSC will be releasing. I kind of like this one.

not necessarily. Why put him on a new base when you still have the original laying around from the past SDCC? Just because it is supposed to be doesn't mean they didn't change their minds. We will have to wait for Alex or Igo to confirm this or not. I would imagine this won't have the COH or sword, so the original would still have exclusivity.

heh, if they pull that off what a rip to the original owners ;p

Teaches you for supporting one of their original lines early I guess ^^

can't wait for this. wonder if it will be more than the original

azurepred · 05-17-2015, 02:00 AM

If you guys go look at the original, his left arm is all bone. This one is covered in armor

Atheris · 05-17-2015, 02:18 AM

So this suppose to be the same size as the LSF? Looks just as big next to the picture.

Base on this looks nicer than the first.

At the time, Alex said it would have been cheaper.

For me it's pretty obvious it's the new one because:
-wouldn't make no sense to put the old one on a new base just for the picture;
-the left arm is different;
-the scythe is different;
-the posture is different.
And that's quite understandable, with very few changes they don't have to cut a totally new steel mold at the factory in China, hence more money saved for the company.
Imho doesn't really matter if the differences are big or small, the first one will always be the original.
