I 'm liking it. I'll reserve judgement on the colors until we see official product photography of him. I'm sure the lighting and color correction applied to these first look images are not representative of the true color.
A case of the AOTC wave hit my local WalMart - and as luck would have it they still had a Zam on the pegs (all that was left besides her was the Obi-Wan, Super Battle Droid and Jango Fett) - and I wanted a third one of her to open so I could display her in third head/scarf configuration.
So now with the exception of scoring another ROTS Darth Sidious and another ROTS Magnaguard, I'm all caught up with Vintage for right now. And since I haven't seen ROTS waves hit in a long while, I'm sure that I'm going to have to rely on the secondary market for those...
TWO FULL WAVES FROM THE CITADEL ARC?!! That's craaazy.
Some great figures in there to be sure, but that numbering seems sketchy. I mean, how far off are they going to push Savage Oppress? Not to mention Aayla, Hondo, Commander Jet, etc.
Seems like those waves would put us well beyond SDCC. And the Oppress arc was way before the Citadel.
Good stuff though...
Received my order of Wave 6 from HTS today - I'm now officially done with Wave 6 - I keep hoping that Wave 5 will come back in stock or I'll find it at a Target or TRU...
My rule is to always wait one year for an item to show up before resorting to a seconday market. Believe me, it works.
Years ago, I just could not find Lillipop Mace. Looked for months. Finally, I stopped thinking about him and figured I'd get him ebay at some point. A few months later I was in a Rite-Aid and casually checked the toy aisle. There he was. Cheap too, like 5.99.
Patience is the key to cheap collecting.
Is this wave still shipping?
I wouldn't mind scoring second openers of Yoda and Death Star Escape Luke for display purposes and I have only seen this wave one time to get my MOC set and another time to have my primary set of openers....
This wave is in stock now at Entertainment Earth.
Too much I already have to spend the money on this wave.
I miss the days when a wave of four new figures would be packed out at 3-per case.
No Jett in the case listing though.
