The e-mail does say it ships in March and I agree with you that they'll probably wait until after Toy Fair.

I'm just being impatient.

I believe Toy Fair runs from Sunday, February 17th, through Wednesday, February 20th, by the way.

They really know how to maximimize the Stormtrooper armor.

Seriously.

They could just stop making everything else and every other character,......and all they need to do is continue to capitalize off of the armor by switching heads, colors, etc. and they pretty much can just pay for their rent, their overhead, and their employees and would still have some change left over!!!

Ay carumba!!

Nice bust though!!

I find it odd that people like this bust but hated the statue when the head sculpt is identical. I own the statue and can honestly say that the headsculpt looks like this bust headsculpt.

While it looks nice, my thought is that it's still the wrong look. This is just my nitpicking but I still think he should have the longer hair and the other lightsaber as Obi-Wan looked in the Clone Wars series.

I don't own the statue but in all the pics I saw the headsculpt made Obi-Wan's face appear emaciated. I'm not seeing that with this bust. Maybe its the paint app.?

I agree with you!!

The ONLY time that we see Obi-Wan wearing this armor and cloak is when (in the animated Vlone Wars series) he's going up against Durge (I think) from the droid army when they are "jousting" on the speeders.....

So, yes, I think the "longer-mullet' style haircut would be more appropriate.
