The galactus looks amazing, 32" tall, is $400. Great pick for a Haslab project. A scale rancor is ~18 inches, with alot less articulation. I'm thinking $150 fan channel exclusive. |

Well, it's already been confirmed as the next SW Haslab project. Also, not sure where you're getting 18 inches from. I would think more like 24-28 inches. Probably closer to $300, assuming they add in some good extras.

Serious question: can we spin ShootingtheGalaxy off into his own thread? As nice as his work is, I'm finding it kind of irritating to see new posts in this thread, click through expecting news and discussion, and only find a page full of photos, nine times out of ten.

Personally, It is just a click and does not take long to look and then close it. The pictures are cool. It could be bothersome if the connection was slow though. I think a lot of times the pictures do get their own threads for they are not clogging the thread tbh.

I am right there with you. I mentioned this last year, but no one else said anything so I dropped it. Before ShootingtheGalaxy came along, the two Star Wars threads were strictly news/rumors/finds. Now they've become more photo-shoot than anything else. They really should go in his own dedicated thread. Don't get me wrong, the photos are awesome. It just becomes a let down when you click expecting relevant news and instead it's just more pictures. That's basically what I did with my Star Wars Hauls. I created my own thread. That way, I can easily scroll through and see all my stuff in one place. Edit: wanted to add, they truly are bad ass photos though. Great work.

Mafex Mando came today
It's an overall great figure. But after waiting so long, I'm kind of indifferent about it. It doesn't WOW. The Figuarts is shinier, which is surprising. Because the dull finish on the armor is the most disappointing part considering how good Mafex's paint job always is. It's compounded on mine by the fact that the visor paint is misaligned JUST enough to be noticeable. Complete with a nice visible black line above the visor that shouldn't be there on one side. The accessories are a mixed bag. Again usually Mafex's strong point. The lack of the jet pack is absolutely baffling. And while yes we knew about it since the start, the amount of delays just makes its absence really stand out. Same goes for the alternate shoulder pad. In comparison to Figuarts, Mafex just falls short here. The cape is, odd? The partial wire at the collar is a great idea for making capes hand flat. The fabric looks nice but is a little TOO thin. And it's just strange that they didn't give it a full wire (along with a slightly thicker fabric) like Mafex always does. Better than the figuarts cape though. The flame accessory doesn't seem to port into anything?? The amount of hands is great. And the rifle is exceptionally detailed. More so than any other company's sculpt. I love the addition of the hanging strap to add to it when it's in hand. The knife is great, but so is the figuarts one. And although it's not as simple as just plugging it into the back like the black series. It's thankfully far less over engineered compared to the figuarts one. They nailed this part. This is probably the best baby yoda sculpt we've received in this scale. Great paint job. But the lack of articulation does make it feel like an after thought. I think if it came out closer to the original release date, I'd love it more. But as it stands now, it's not the knock it out of the park I think we all were expecting in comparison to Figuarts.

The Gamestop Jet Trooper isn't coming up in searches unless you search exactly like this: "JET TROOPER GAMING GREATS". Good luck.

Thanks for the review. I've never ordered anything from that company before. I am curious about the new hulkbuster they're doing though.
