Okay.... This may be the single most amazing 6" scale figure I have ever seen. The face sculpt on both included heads is utterly ridiculous. Color me impressed.... I hate to admit this but the Black Series Luke looks like a pile compared to this.....

I want to start these so bad.  The issue I run into is trying to pre order these is very hard.  That leads to paying ebay prices.  Where did you end up getting it from?

[Prometheus]

I hear you Qc.. I wanted to get him for the 53.00 preorder price but missed out.... End up buying on Amazon for close to 70.00.... I have to say though... The attention to detail and the face paint is just amazing... One of the best Figuarts to date.

Did you see the Speeder Bike and rider for pre order?  200 bucks but Im thinking about it.

[Prometheus]

It is very pricey but the set looks fantastic!!! I preordered it on BBTS just not to miss out!!!

Would you choose these over Hottoys if you could only choose one line to collect?

[Prometheus]

Yes..... I have actually stopped collecting Hot Toys and now only collect 1/12 scale.... I like the size better and the prices are easier on the wallet. If I only could collect SH Figuarts though that would be tough because they still are inconsistent with scale.... For example, their Vader is pretty small.... I don't know why this is.

Wow really?  That kinda scares me.  I really have OCD when it comes to things like this.

[Prometheus]

I'm totally OCD about different scales too LOL.... It makes me nervous!! Gotta have everything just right.....

So is Tamashi Nations stuff part of that group or another line?

[Alteran195]

I know this thread is technically about Luke, but did you see these?

Tamashi Nations is part of Bandai and the producer of SH Figuarts.....

[Prometheus]

Alteran..... I'm excited about all three of those new Figuarts!! Thanks for sharing

I did come across Anime-Expo.  Its in Japan and has a few of the newer ones to pre order.  They have good prices but you have to pay for it right away and you have to figure out how much shipping is on your own so you know what to expect when it gets ready to ship.

AmiAmi.com still has Obiwan for preorder.  You dont have to pre pay.  I went ahead and did it.

[Prometheus]

Thanks for the info Qc.... I'm going there right now

So what did you think?  You get any thing?  Im this close to pushing the buy button on Luke from Amazon.

[Qcjoe]

Go to bigbadtoystore as soon as possible.  They have a few pre orders up again.  Not sure how long it will last,

[Prometheus]

Qc.... I ordered a few... They are kind of high in price but at least I won't be paying international shipping rates.

Thanks for the heads up

I thought the same thing but after shipping from Japan its not to bad. You also have to take into account that once you can get a hold of them on the secondary market you may be paying the same or less.
