I would rather see a new figure that was NOT a Jedi!

I may be skipping this one and applying the saved $50 to a Medicom Stormtrooper!




You're not going to see a, say, bounty hunter in the Order of the Jedi wave.  ::)

I don't know if it has been confirmed or not, but judging by the first four figures presented, will 2006 be an "all Jedi" year?  Just curious.  If that is the case, and I just buy a figure here and there, I might be able to justify the Jedi Luke (if I could still get it somewhere) if I wouldn't be buying another one until next year basically (or whenever we see another OT - or Han in particular - piece).

That said, Fisto looks pretty good.  The mouth expression is a little odd, but I do see what was said earlier about the "fighting look" without having him with a big grin on his face.  Overall I'm sure it will be a very nice figure.  I've been a bit surprised with how many have been revealed already, I figured there would be a month or two between each "announcement".  I guess Sideshow isn't quite a stingy with their news as Hasbro can sometimes be.

I'd like to say I'm on the fence about this one but I'd only be fooling myself.  I'll buy it even if the "smile/battle glare" doesn't seem to look right to me.

On a side note, I ordered the 12" Aragorn  (LOTR) today about 3.5 hours after it was iniitially put up for sale.  I still got the Sideshow exclusive and I think it took under a minute to log in and log out.  Hopefully, it will be this easy on the next Star Wars figure!!

I think they are just announcing them by themes.  Apparently they are going to show us all the "Order of the Jedi" figs for this year.  Then I would assume the Sith theme is next?  I don't know for certain though.

I bet it will be a Jedi Cloak.

After seeing the LOTR Aragorn Exclusive that included an exclusive cloak I have no doubt that this is what we have in store for the Kit man.

I wish we could have gotton a few Jedi Council Chairs as accessories.

Those would have been better exclusives in my opinion than weapons or robes.

Battle Droid - Metal Menace

Posted on Thursday, January 19th, 2006 at 10:58 pm

So by now many of you have figured out that Kit Fisto’s Sideshow Exclusive accessory is a defeated battle droid head. In less than 12 hours, you’ll have your chance to pre-order the Sideshow Exclusive Kit Fisto, and remember that subscribed newsletter members get a head-start with a priority pre-order opportunity. If you’re not a member, sign up now!

We’ve seen some chatter on the boards about the battle droid head, and wanted to answer a few of the comments and questions. This is a unique accessory, no other future character will include a defeated battle droid head exactly like this one. Kit Fisto’s battle droid head features lightsaber damage on the neck, where it was severed. The head is cast in real metal, making it a perfect paperweight if you choose not to display it with Kit (standing victorious atop the head, of course). This doesn’t mean that Sideshow won’t produce a full 12″ Battle Droid down the road (far, far down the road), or that other battle droid parts won’t appear in other figures. Kit Fisto’s Geonosis trophy is one-of-a-kind.
