IMO, it's better than the Mando and Dune PFs, but just something about all of these makes them look like they were made in 2005 for some reason.

I realize they have a cut/sew department to employ, but I hate seeing fabric capes/cloaks/robes on a statue that is otherwise fully sculpted. I'm very thankful Ventress and Maul didn't suffer from that fate.

Maybe they are just really trying to hammer home their stance of Spook is not for reveals?

I like the statue and the character is dope, but the likeness is off. Just like with Cara.

Sideshow aint so good with an actual human face. They might want to ask Hot Toys, Prime 1, or Tweeterhead how it's done.

I think I would have preferred his more cocky stance when he is trying to blow them outta the bar. That smirk is classic. I have a very soft spot for Giancarlo Esposito. I think he is a fabulous actor, I love his personality and I will watch anything he is in.

Probably decided to use this scene from the show so they could include the Dark Sabre.

None of these Sideshow Star Wars PF's nail the likeness. This should be an easy buy for me, but there's no way I'm spending $600+ on something that looks like it was made a decade ago.

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