Play Toys Queen Amidala 1/6th Scale

Hey Collectors! I've been wanting a throne room Queen Amidala from Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace for years but none of the main licensers like Sideshow, Hot Toys, or Iron Studios have brought this figure to market. A company I've never heard of, Play Toys, has decided to make an unlicensed version and I thought the pictures looked good enough to take a chance on it.

I think I love this. I want to get it, but yea ebay prices are different. Wish it came with a base and would be cool to install some kind of aluminum cage on the inside of the dress to keep it out or for posing. Still looks really nice. Great video

[@StarWarsCollected]

All would be good edits! It's probably about a $100 figure honestly when I compare it to what we get from the licensed companies, but if they don't make it, what are we to do? I still think a PF version would be my first choice, but this will do for now. Thanks for watching friend!

Natalie is 5'3 in real life, but she was supposed to be 5'7 in the movie. Behind the scenes photos with Christian hayden you can see her on her Tippy toes.

[@StarWarsCollected]

Yeah, I wish they had used a shorter figure for this piece overall.

[@SeriouslyStarWars]

Never heard of this company but the statue looks great!

[@StarWarsCollected]

Same but not bad! Price needs to be lower for what you get, but a nice alternative, filling a hole in the market.

I got it for about 175 after shipping , used an extra sideshow stand I had , then bought a plaque from Etsy, I will say this figure is actually taller than the AOTC padme

[@StarWarsCollected]

Sounds like a good pairing! I do wish she had been about 10.5" tall or so, but I will probably display her solo to hide the figure height.

@@StarWarsCollected that is what I’m going as of now, she is alone. Maybe one day I’ll give her a smaller body

Looks great

[@StarWarsCollected]

The face, which to me matters the most, looks pretty good I must say! Not Hot Toys quality, but maybe Sideshow!

[@SharkForge29]

For a third party, I think it looks pretty good! Definitely filling a void we definitely have been needing. I've been very impatiently waiting for any and all Amidala hot toys haha. Random question. Are those First Order Tie Fighters on that box art? haha

[@StarWarsCollected]

Glad to know I'm not alone! I feel like this costume is the definitive Queen Amidala look but it's just crickets from the licensed manufacturers. Great eye on those tie fighters! You could be a rebel pilot! I actually stated it in my review but it didn't make the cut. The box art actually is pretty good, until you start really looking at it and it's just randomness.

[@Collection_Obsession]

Great review! I'm still on the fence about getting this figure. But I'm gonna get the Play toys, Senator Amidala. Are you going to be getting Sentor Amidala figure?

[@StarWarsCollected]

I did see someone post that last week! I've been really chasing the throne room dress collectible for a long time, so as nice as that one looks, I might see if it shows up cheap 2nd hand someday. Would love to know your thoughts on it when you get it though!
