Madness!.... Madness?....This .... is.... Kotobukiya!

I'd agree though, if the 59 dollar price is for one 6" figurine and a BAF part that is still plenty high i think.

Well these are on preorder on www.play.com over here at £35 that's $70!

That's a damn high price to me for a 6 inch figure.

I really hate Cody's firing pose, looks awkward in the extreme, the way he's holding the gun. Other than that they look pretty nice, though I doubt I'd buy them myself.

That said, at that scale they might fit in pretty well with Hasbro's Star Wars Unleashed figures, if anyone collects those...

They look pretty cool but why not just make them 12" tall? 6" seems a bit small especially for $60. That would be $240 for a set of all four 6" statues. And I agree Cody's firing position doesn't look very good. I like them but I'll be passing.

This may be due to the angle of the first photo. Check out Cody from the side ...

Keep in mind that the Jet Pack Trooper statue is built from bonus parts included with Rex, Cody and Gree.

Codys' side view looks even worse.
I've shot many different types of guns and I know if there is a stock you put it against your shoulder not above it.
Do their biceps look a little skinny to anyone else?
I'll try to get Rex cheaper off Ebay...Maybe. Definately will pass on Cody and Gree. $60+ is way to much for what's basically a Hasbro Unleashed figure.
It's really a shame. If these were executed better I would've bought all of them. I'm kind of a Clone freak.
