I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I loathe mixed media, but GD that face is stunning. They nailed the likeness.

As long as ES is right I'll be getting this. SS has been letting me down with their female statues lately & I am actually impressed with this one. Fabric looks good to me.

I think it will be another high ES as they learned Ahsoka has a following.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Wait, the sabers don’t light up? Sadness. I know they break, but it’s so cool.

Yeah it’s a total non issue for a lot of collectors nowadays.

If they could make them easily fixable, or offer spares I would love to have them light up, but otherwise I’m fine without them.

Or just not make the electronics out of the cheapest garbage to begin with..... Nowadays LED's couldn't be easier... you have to TRY to make it so bad that it "breaks" on a static application.

Exactly. This is not an excuse Sideshow should use and be allowed to get away with.

That said, I haven't had any electronics fail, and light-up sabers are a must for me. Seems to me you could offer them both ways at the very least, with the light-up costing a little more.

Was Moff Gideon's darksaber light up feature advertised when he went up for PO? If not, maybe this is a similar situation?

I don't love the character enough to warrant a statue, but damn she looks great! It looks like Rosario is sportin' the same jika-tabi we wear in the Bujinkan, I never noticed! Looks like a hakama from behind also.

I don't think so (not 100% sure). Though, if not, that seems to be Sideshow's modus operandi. That WAS the case with Darth Maul PF - I know. They claimed that they wouldn't know for sure until the factory produced some samples, as to whether light-up was feasible. It usually is, but fans have to be vocal about it every time, it seems, to ensure it happens.
