i think, detail in his helmet its great however, two heads its more functionally,
Luanne I had the same thing happen w/my anakin,it’s nothingwith the figure,these are beauty pieces ment more for display than play,just put the hands back on & keep kit away from master sidious!!!
Hi,I got a Kit Fisto,can anyone tell me if they having problems with hands,they seem to come off very easy,when I bend them they are off,is this normal or any way to fix it better.I suppose Luke and Anakin the same too?other than that not bad.Can’t wait until maul,and Jabba.how about a Borga creature.
Batman: Thx, you make good points re: Raven. & even a better point re: Palpatine…SS should make him the next “Scum” figure. Version? hmm..tough one so I’m luvin’ your idea of interchangable everything: heads, hands, outfits. Yea- motion carried!
It’s kinda funny that I take all of my figures out of the box & display them, usually even throwing the box away “GASP”, & I have yet to get an item from SS that has been damaged in any way. Now that I am getting the SS Star Wars 12″ figs & they have so many accessories that can’t be displayed with the figure all at once, I have been keeping the boxes to store all those extra accessories or unused Jedi robes in.
Hey Brent, take it out of the box.
Fantastic sculpt and figure!

Zeebah!
Hey SSC, your 12″ Star Wars line is fantastic but the way you package each figure really sucks!! Two of the four 12″ figures I’ve received from you have suffered damage to the boxes. Some Star Wars collectors are completely changing their collecting habits based on this line. Please pack the figures better!! How hard can it be to get a bigger box, put a couple of extra pieces of bubble-wrap in there for padding. I’m already cringing about the box-condition of the 12″ Jabba when that huge thing arrives on my doorstep next year. I fully expect that thing to be damaged beyond recognition.
Please, please take the time to pack these 12″ figures better.
Thanks,
Brent
One of the guys at SS did an interview and said the Obi holdup was concerning his robes. I think its a color correction whereas in the prototype pics his tunic and stuff are white, but in the movie its more beige. Has anyone gotten their 1/4 scale Leia yet?
I hear it will have interchangeable Leia and Boussh helmet heads. As opposed to an actual wearable helmet. All these SS figs are putting an end to my customizing of the old kenner/hasbro 12″ers. With Gentle Giant and Kotobukiya, where do you guys put all this stuff? Darth Icarus: Palpatine from Ep.VI. I know its 20 plus years later for McDiarmid, but something’s not right with his face in Ep. III. Although his robes are pretty cool in Ep. III, and its the only time we see him with his lightsaber kicking Jedi-a$$.
I wanted to thank Sideshow for getting us this awesome figure and all the other ones we’ve been getting… But what is the deal with the Obi-wan figure? The Jedi Luke and Anakin have been shipped on time, and then Kit Fisto, Sith Anakin and now it’s Bespin Han’s turn. Where has Obi-wan gone? Did he go into hiding so far that nobody can find him to ship it to us? Anybody has any info on this?
Great, the server’s slowing down already.
Rizzo-1/4 scale emperor would have it’s own space in my col.
Batman-1/6 scale enterchangable palpatine would cool & should start off A trend of acc.packs for other figures as well,like A luke bat.poncho& helmet acc.pack!
Rock on ss!!!
lookin’ good.
Just a heads-up….according to the latest SW Insider 9the one with Han on the cover). Leia, Jabba, Bib and the est of the Comic-Con display are arriving in early 2007. I think that’s a good thing…the holidays are expensive enough as it is. Plus, i wouldn’t be surprised if a delay or two was in the stars for one or more of these peices. As long as the result is some excellent figures, the wait’ll be alright…
Bring on Boussh!
dollface:
I would be more concerned if anyone actually responded.
What time is 2:20am in Phillipines, anyway?
Darth Icuras:
I think they can accomodate us nicely with just one palpatine figure: interchangeable heads and hands, and outfits. Although, they should allow a 2-item limit on that, so those who want to do both, can.
Expect 2-3 Premium Format figures a year.
And, don’t worry, guys, they’ll get around to making the “must haves” figures. Those, I am told are no-brainers, as they “Have to make them”. It’s the more obscure figures that will need the pressure put on.
My hopes is, they’ll do the entire Jedi Council; and a good Aurra Sing; and a few EU sith and Jedi. A yoda would be awesome; but, I can pass on a Yaddle. I want a Plo Koon, but, can pass on another Luke. 2 PFF and a 12″ is sufficient
Hey Miller….read Darren Douglas’ comment closely…he nails the whole “supply and demand” way of thinking on the nail….good way with words, Darren!
Hey SS, what do you think about offering 2 Yoda’s together, an Episode IV & Episode II together with alot of cool accessories? That way since he is so much smaller you could still charge the same price as one of the larger figures. I have to have a Yoda I can pose with his little lightsaber & one posed as if he is raising an X-wing from the swamp. Gotta have.
Bring on the Stormtroopers. All the versions from all of the original trilogy films. on’t get me wrong, I enjoyed the prequels, but I’m 36 and Old-school all the way!!!!!
….er..guys…time out. Is any one else disturbed that “Raven” above is 10 yrs old and up at 2:00am w/ computer access begging for gifts from strangers????? Yea, sure its probably someone like us- a broke, (adult)sucker for sweet action figures. OK dammit…we’re flipping obsessed! Leaving work to order online, jobs are hanging in the balance..is this the legacy we leave for all the “Raven” types out there? Do we not have a responsibility to shield that young, impressionable soul from certain obsession? Ah hell! every wo/man for him/herself…. kids?????
Taps foot while waiting patiently for 10am August 4th.
This is how it sould be done.1/4 scale:Padme(Ep.2),stormtrooper,leia slave girl,emperor(Ep.6). 1/6 scale:grand moff tarkin, lando(colt 45)calrissian, different versions of clone commanders(cody,bacara,kagi,etc.),shaak ti, droideka,greedo, and yet another 1/6 version of vader to add to our collections. Keep the comments comin’ boys.
personally I prefer the papaltine EP3 with the red suit.
THIS QUESTION IS FOR THE PALPATINE FANS.
WHICH VERSION SHOULD SS MAKE,EP1 ,EP3,EP6?
I WANT SIDIOUS EP1 OR EMPEROR EP6.
How about a Bossk and an IG-88!!!!
– Trev
I agree with Yoda, Lando (Skiff Guard), R2, 3P0 and Boba, but Xizor? He didn’t appear in a film at all!
I really think you should produce firgures that HAVENT been produced by hasbro already in 12” format. Yours are obviously the superior but I was most impressed with your kit fisto simply becuase it was new. Since you have already taken the route of starting a whole new line, I beg you, please dont start producing the same character over and over again. I have 10 different luke figures from Hasbro, and would hate to see you fall into the same rut.
P.S. If you produce a 12” Chewbaca I suggect you just put a fur suit over a standard body (possibly with an elongated torso) with molded hands, feet, and head.
You guys need to make yoda, the emperor (episode 3),R2-d2,C3po, bobba fett,jango fett,Prince xizor, Wedge and lando. F#$k Greedo Pleaseee he was only in the movie for 60 seconds.Besides that u guys are dont great man for real. Just hurry up with obi wan and qui gonman please. Peace
Another great sculpt! I’m not sure what everyone else is complaining about.
I’ll be placing my order as soon as the phones open!
Keep up the great work.
I would hope that the therminal detonator would come with ALL versions of this figure. It should be a standard accessory for Boushh… Great job, Sideshow! I’m looking forward to this one. Now make the Han in Carbonite and we’re set for a nice Jabba’s Palace display!
hello starwar fans… i celebrated my 10th birthday 2 days ago and i hope somebody will give me sideshow starwars 12” and i love leia …
hello there, iam from the philippines and a starwars fan since childhood, i like villains. i want to greet my tito topher who has many collections of starwars, i hope someone will lgive me money to buy this beautiful collection from sideshow, and i hope they will give me all starwars for free, i love sideshow very much, sideshow your the best… thank you… i hope my mom will buy me leia boushh
I agree that the face sulpt looks good. This is the only Jabba’s palace fig I can afford at the moment. I’m looking forward to the exclusive, although I don’t think there’ll be a huge run on it.
icarus, the exclusive was revealed in the last newsletter. It is an Ubese blaster pistol, not the thermal detonator.
please bring on the amored Vader(w/detailed 3 pc helmet) to make Mediacom’s Vader look like a Babie doll. Like SideShow did with Luke (side show nothing like the best)
you should make a make a 12 inch greedo or boba fett next.
I’M JUST GLAD THEY MADE A BOUSHH !
THAT ONE WAS #1 ON MY WISH LIST/DREAM LIST.
IS IT TRUE THE DETONATOR IS THE EXCLUSIVE, THAT SHOULD BE APART OF THE REGULAR FIGURE !
I TINK THE FRAME OF THE BODY LOKS TO TALL,BUT HEY I’LL BE GETTING ONE ANYWAY.
Hmmm ‘supply and demand’
Well that’s exactly what this limited ordering window goes against. There’s a demand that exceeds the supply. Hence the complaining.
It’s a valid complaint.
Not that I give a crap in most cases, the exclusive item is usually something I can do without, its mostly just for scalpers or people that get horny about having something that few others have, like that means something in the world of big toys!
This Leia as Boussh figure look nice and I think it was about time,since the female characters in Star Wars have become an important part of the saga. A slave Leia action figure would be interesting to match with your excellent Jabba. About the joints,that should be extremely important could it be possible to use the same system used in the Rambo figure? From my point of view,and to avoid the Barbie rigid look, that would be an option.
I am sooooo tired of all the complaints about priority preorder. If you have to work find a friend or family member that you trust and have them do it for you. If you think that the people that don’t have regular work hours aren’t making any money than put your name on the wait list and maybe you’ll get one. Supply and demand people.
yeah, after this i hope they do a han in carbonite.
i guess i could make my own though……didn’t hasbro make one?
……I’ll be sure to be buying it off Ebay at a much higher cost and exaggerated shipping fees…yahoo!
Yet another pre-sale sure to be sold out while I am at work without computer access…would be nice if the sales could be available to make after 5pm CST, like most of the U.S.!
So? Is Sideshow going to make ALL Star Wars 12-inch figures?
Bring on the Boba fett figure!
I think I will skip out on this figure but I’m not saying I don’t like the figure, it’s just personally between the leia and bib figure I without a doubt would pick the bib figure to buy. My Mom said I could only have one of them.
For those wanting slave Leia, I think the Unleashed version is plenty good enough, look wise. To have a slave Leia in 6th scale would be too ugly in terms of seeing joints and stuff. Unless they do a Barbie body look, but then the articulation would go to hell. I think most 6th scales of anything would have to be clothed figures…
THOSE OF YOU COMPLAINING ABOUT THE FACE SCULPT, LOOK AT SOME OF THE OTHER PICS OF THIS FIGURE FROM COMIC-CON. IT IS AN AWESOME SCULPT. THE PREVIEW PIC DOESN’T DO IT JUSTICE. LEIA AND HAN HAVE ALWAYS BEEN TOUGH SCULPTS. SIDESHOW IS FINALLY DOING THEM JUSTICE.
Yay!
Who am I kidding, of course there will be, as long as I can aquire one of the editions, I’m happy. Unfortunately, I had to pass on Fortuna. Just didn’t seem like it was for me, anyone else feel the same?
All I see is an announcement for an exclusive edition. Will there be a normal edition for those that can’t camp on our computers all day?
You guys are seeing a bad pic here. The real thing which was on display at comic con looks amazing. I dont think people will be disapointed. Way to go sideshow. Now the question is when do we get a suited Vader?!!!
I will be able to sleep well now, knowing that the exclusive item isn’t the detonator…
I believe Sideshow has much love for Jabba’s Palace, which is awesome for me since that is my favorite part in all of the films!!!
Thanks for doing some of the best stuff I’ve seen!!
While I LOVE the job that SS is doing with these 12″ figures and the sculpts are FAR BETTER than Hasbro did for the most part, I only wish that Sideshow could do more figures. Leia in point, I would have preferred a Bespin Gown Leia, as that is about the only 12″ Leia not produced during the Hasbro run (oh, wait, they didn’t do a 12″ Ewok Village Leia…hair down…either). Anyway, while GREAT SCULPTS are…well, GREAT…I’m hoping SS starts doing figures that have never seen a 12″ figure made. After having said all that, I will admit that I am looking forward to a SS version of Chewbacca (ALL Hasbro versions were AWFUL!!!) as long as it’s made taller than the other figures. I’m also hoping this Leia is a little shorter than 12″ so that she looks in scale with the others.
Fantastic likeness of Carrie Fisher and looks as good as Premium Format Leia.
Just wait till you see the leather like material used on the coat and the pants! I think this will be the best one yet! The helmet on the body looks a bit big, but it did in the movie too, so I think it’s pretty accurate. For me, I think this is the best Leia and am ellated that SS chose this one first! If this portrait makes it out of production fairly intact, she’ll be voted best of the bunch I think. Veryveryvery nice figure!
According to the newsletter, it’s the blaster pistol. This is going to be another long week of waiting and an expensive Christmas season with Jabba, Bib, Boba and now Leia due out later this year.
The exclusive is the strange looking pistol/gun in her right hand. Rest easy, the detonator is standard.
That reminds me, does anyone know FOR SURE what the “Exclusive” accessory will be? I hope it’s not just the thermal detonator. That should be available with both versions of the figure. That’s probably the one complaint, other than the nervousness felt during the load on the servers, that I have with these. It’s not shown what all comes with the figure until afterwards. I guess we’ll haveta see.
I think the likeness to Carrie Fisher is great, I can’t wait for August 4th! I only have one question SS…Where’s Chewbacca to go along with Bespin Han and now Boushh Leia?!?
Sure glad I’m off on Friday! That would really suck if I had to be at work without access to a computer. This one’s mine for sure, an exclusive to boot! Keep up the good work SS! Can’t wait to have the entire Jabba Palace scene.
Nice choice for a Classic pick. Bib was no problem for me and it shows you guys at SS are good on keeping up your server strength. This is the best likeness on any figure modeled on Carrie Fisher, realistic without looking too much like a “Barbie”. I’m with the above post for hoping for a Max Rebo Band as well. Here’s an idea for your Scum and Villany line… If you can do a Jabba Dias, what about offering peices of a Sand “Skiff” to offer with other characters in this line. You could easily squeeze out another 5 or 6 aliens or human figures with this line and put all the peices together to for a 12″ scale “Skiff”. Offer it like the Dias and maybe break it down into smaller peices bringing the price down a bit, giving fans a chance to build a real diaroma/playset. This might be a good selling point for secondary aliens/background characters and offer more incentive to buy.
I have to agree that Pre-Ordering this figure in the small “Exclusive” window will be nerve-wracking, but all I can do is hope I get through. I was surprised that the server was slow with Bib Fortuna today. I didn’t think too many people would go after him. I must say, although pictures from SDCC and here are all I’ve seen, her face still doesn’t seem to be the best likeness. I’m sure my opinion will change once I have the figure in-hand, but it seems that it is most difficult to get Carrie’s likeness. Best of luck to everyone!
Why is this not an inclusive edition? I have to work this Friday! People who work is where the $$$ is at! That is the flaw in this type of ordering scheme.
I love it, Sideshow!! Thanks for the beautiful figure! I’ll definitely be getting it! PLEASSSSEEEE, stop with the exclusive tiny ordering window!! PLEASE go back to the big inclusive window and just offer accessory packs. It’s way to hard to be at a computer at the right time when I’m at work. I have to actually take a break from work and run home. This is going to get me fired! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE switch over permanently to the inclusive ordering system. Thanks for listening and keep up the great sculpts!
The latest newsletter states that a Ubese Blaster Pistol will be the exclusive item.
Is it me or does any one else think the collar is a bit out of scale? Looking back at the movie, it appears it comes all the way down to the mid-wrap and stretches to the should seams.
The figure is still great and SS is doing an amazing job with their 12″ line. I haven’t yielded to any of them yet but think I might now that I getting all 3 of the Jabba pieces.
So what is the inclusive/exclusive accessory then? I can’t seem to think of anything she would have besides the pike, helmet and thermal detonator.
I think if Chewie comes out, he will come with his ‘captured’ chains.
I would love a Frozen Han Solo in Carbonite figure. Maybe with a Fett someday…
This figure looks wayyyyy better than the shot they have here. I saw it at SDCC and it is totally awesome.
For those who don’t know, SS has stated that they will not make a fig with a helmet that fits over the production sculpt and this fig is no exception. The helmet has a peg head in it. The Leia head pops off and the helmet “head” pops on in its place. You could clearly see it at SDCC.
And for all who think differently, Mace is the least accurate sculpt that SS has done to date. Trust me, I can say this with authority because I saw ALL of them at SDCC together and he is definately the worst. Not bad, but not as good as the rest either.
I think it’s great that they made another Leia, but I still think we need a Padme. For the next figure, a Queen Amidala would be awesome! Oh, and Leia looks great !
Leia in slave outfit better? With SSC’s current bodies? You gotta be kidding. The only way to make an awesome Slave Leia would be Premium Format.
The Thermal detonator should be part of the regular package since it was a prominent part of her role. The exclusive should be something else but I have no idea what else there could be, so it probably will be the detonator (unless it’s the chains that Chewie had on). I think the face sculpt looks great!
I’m new to this web page (approx 3 months)and can believe I never heard of it sooner. thanks rebelscum. I have two slidshow 12″ figures, Luke and Anakin…amazing….I can wait to order Leia as Boushh. I can see my collection get larger and larger..keep up the great work.
Wow, sideshow is starting kick ‘em out double time now. Awsome. Cant wait to set up the whole Jabba’s Throne room.
We need han in carbonite, Gamorean Guards, Lando in Skiff Gear, Threepio, Chewie in handcuffs, oh yeah and a 12″ scale rancor to shove that bone into his mouth from the Jedi Luke figure. But I’m still waiting for a Greedo figure. Come on guy. I dont have 800 buck to shell out for the life-size bust!
Bit of a disturbing face sculpt…but I’ll buy it anyway as I am a first class Muppet!
Good evening.
Mr Jaxxon
The most broke chap in the galaxy.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen an Ubese blaster pistol.
Oh well, sounds like a cool enough exclusive.
FINALLY! “LEIA”!!!
I’ve been asking for her since “Luke” was first announced!
I’m glad we are finally getting her… I would have prefered “Bespin Gown Leia” but this will do, for now.
Thank you Sideshow!
Regards
-Seb
You’ve asked for it? You? I asked for a Hoth Leia! Nonetheless, I’m happy that Leia is coming, and that she looks so sweet!
AAAAAAAAARGH!
People complaining about THAT face sculpt?
Check out the comic-con pics on rebelscum.com, thats a tiny Carrie Fisher, its stunning.
Jeeeeeeeeez.
FANTASTIC WORK.
Oh no…. not the thermal-detonator! Without that my figure wouldn’t look complete…
I think the sculpt is incredible. Is the thermal detonator really the exclusive? Grrr…that seems like a pretty important part to leave out of the regular edition’s accessories…here’s hopin’ I get an exclusive…
this was a great choice.
slave leia would have sucked because you would see all the joints!
i have to disagree with the joe, jesse, and david, i saw this figure up close at comic-con and it is AWESOME!
(you know you guys are buying it anyway even though this one, being a female means you’ll be playing with a doll!)
this picture is too “straight on” and doesn’t do the sculpt justice. if anything i think the han solo 12″ looks the least like the actual actor.
I VOTE FOR A 12″ CHEWBACCA IN CHAINS or SOLO IN CARBONITE AS THE “ACCESSORY”
what?… we don’t get a vote? dang it!
How about Leia in the slave outfit? That would have been better! This will look good with the mask on,I agree with the others.
Don’t like the face at all, but the outfit is great. Lets put the mask on!!!lol
Awesome piece, god let their servers be merciful!
Finally Leia!!!! thanks a lot sideshow, i will mark the calendar. thanks again!!!!
That kinda looks like the Harrison Ford Han face sculpt.
Very nice looking figure, I just hope that the helmet won’t look to big when it is on the figures head.
So the thermal-detonator will be the exclusive right? Personally I would like to see a 12 inch Sy Snoodles and the Max Rebo band. Love the work so far.
