I mean...  wow.  Just wow. 

It's the kind of collection centerpiece that really is tempting me.  I don't even buy 1:6 stuff, and this one's drawing me in to get it and Yoda now.

It does look incredible.  The exclusive Yoda is already sold out.  I had to wait list him since I had no clue he was up for order until this morning.  The exclusive is an orange snake similar to the vintage figure.

Damn it! I had no idea these went up and missed the exclusive. I had to waitlist it.

This one caught me completely off-guard!

Sideshow is churning out some expensive purchases for me again!!

I ordered the Regular Yoda and for the first time ever for me, I ordered the environment as well. 

I went ahead and placed a waitlist order for the exclusive version as well.  Hopefully, the waitlist will be converted to an active order and I can cancel my regular yoda.  While I don't love the exclusive snake, if I can get the exclusive extra, I'd prefer to have it.

It's actually (I think) intended to be the brown snake, which was the snake's original color and harder to find.  It was a very cool nod, but IF I were to order I'd not worry about the exclusive Yoda I think.  I'll just get the regular one and the Hut.  I'm really tempted.   :-\  It's just so much money though.  But yeah, I'm drooling over it.

The hut is beautiful.  I don't really know how to afford it but I ordered it anyway.

I'm grappling with this right now as well.  I want this and, at least Yoda as well, to put on a nice display shelf...  It's the kind of thing that's affordable, but you don't have to go into this whole line to get this and appreciate it.

Dropped my Yoda preorder, hoping me waitlist for the exclusive goes through. Didnt want to get stuck with the regular and the exclusive. Regular has not sold out yet so i can always just reorder it.

I've been waiting on my exclusive waitlist to go through as well.  I've been on the list since shortly after it sold out.

I may end up dropping mine as well to get the exclusive. I haven't had an exclusive wait list not come through yet. Not sure if that double negative makes sense  ;D

Well I never dropped my regular edition Yoda.  I also got my delivery notice. Yoda will be here on Friday.

Yoda has arrived.  Very, very pleased with this Sideshow offering.  He comes with 4 sets of hands and 2 sets of feet.  He also comes with a log to sit on and a snake.  Haven't opened all the accessories yet.

Wow!  Very cool looking.  How does he look compared to the other Sideshow figures?

I'm beginning to think this might be my first wait list order not to go through.  I've had three previous to this one and they all got converted prior to the item shipping.  I have yet to hear anything...I would hate to have to go to ebay for this one.

I never did hear about my exclusive waitlist either.  I was (and still am shocked).

As luck would have it, I just got the email tonight...I was getting worried.

Nice that these are shipping...  I really almost pulled the trigger on it because it's such a collection centerpiece to me.  Grab a Luke then, and a Yoda...  You're really set with something awesome.

Glad I dropped my regular order, my waitlist just went through as well.

Sigh. My wait list just converted as well. I went ahead and canceled it. I can't justify getting the exclusive version now that I have the regular version. Not enoough different.

I placed my order for the Yoda Hut over the weekend and started clearing off space in the "toy room" for its display. Now to see if I can find/build a transparent case to go over the top of it.

If you've worked with plexi glass before Jayson, it's not hard to deal with really.  Lowes sells sheets though, not a bad price, and you should be able to get a cutting tool right there.  You really only need a steel straight edge then, and some epoxy (and I'd use painter's tape to keep the adhesive from spreading/damaging anything).

Thanks Jesse. I was sourcing some materials yesterday and was trying to decide on how to assemble the box. I'm considering the epoxy route or just using 90º glass connectors.

Post by: Jesse James on March 29, 2011, 04:10 PM
The glass connectors are a good idea and would maybe look better overall and allow for disassembly.

Anyone have the Yoda 12" Hut?  Sideshow has slightly discounted the price and offering free shipping... I'm debating ordering one for my Yoda.

Yes. It is fantastic (https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150216983896799.309537.202559486798&l=00e4b12ba4).

That does look pretty sweet. Are the lights integrated or did you add those?
