I love the fact they're doing this line. My issue is pricing on these. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think they're too pricey. If these were in the $180-$220 range, I'd be all in. I agree with you about the clothing being too clean, as well. You're right, the universe, especially this subset of characters, need to be dirty and worn.

Jedha, A tactic Sideshow often now uses is setting the edition size higher than their first run they intend to produce then later maybe produce the rest IF they think the demand is there. So if the edition size was set at 1000, maybe they only produced 600 but now they think they can sell more. I think that is what is happening with that Probe Droid.

Im excited for this line, but that price...That's $275, plus tax, plus ship, (more if you live in another country)...$350 each figure. I would be worried that Hot Toys releases their own Greedo, I just dont think they'll do other characters.

Would I prefer these to be cheaper? Yes. Are these figures going to save me a ton of money because I won't need to go to the secondary market? Absolutely yes. Tatooine and related scum and villainy are my top 2 collecting focuses. I'm absolutely here for this entire run. Maybe they should be weathered more. But to me I sort of like that they come across as a bit toy-etic. I'm not good at posing at all, so figures that can basically stand there are also fine for me. So maybe I'm a niche customer haha

Sideshow does this from time to time with some of their product. I see their R2-D2 and C-3PO 1/6 figures go through that roller coaster of being for purchase and then pre-order and back and forth. I have even seen them do that with products from other companies. The Trick or Treat Studios 1/6 Tarman, Book of the Dead prop, and others.

I am actually ok for greedo being clean since he did look quite clean in anh. He’s a bounty hunter working for JABBA and he’s probably mot seen much action anyway. And greedo’s head is much much better proportioned than the first version they made But the price is NUTS!! 280?? For a sideshow? Their bucks SUCK….they don’t hold a pose and are flimsy…..unless they have all new bucks

These Sideshows villains are cool, no doubt about it. However, for what you get, Sideshows asks a little too much. Myself, I do not collect them, so I do not care much about them. However, at that price, they should be ready to go out of the box and fit into their movie environment. That means high-quality bodies and movie-accurate weathering. As they are, a fair price max might be 150-170 USD IMO. Not sure they will be discounted though. For people with the matching field of collecting, they are highly desireable. So they might be gone before you blink.

This will be a nice add to surround Jabba The Hutt's Throne; I am still trying to make that purchase. The pricing is a toss-up, but I'm still looking forward to purchasing. Agree with points made of Greedo and Poba being too clean, and definitely weathering will help. Great video commentary.

As you said good idea releasing these figures, if hot toys isn’t going to make them. However, pricing is a it to much for these considering they don’t bring much accessories or second head sculpt! And yes the clothing looks to clean. Price should be 180.00 to 200.00 tops! I’m interested in Greedo the most but I can wait for it to be in the super sale they do when stuff doesn’t move. Plus they gave up on the Clone War Animated Line, which I thought was a cool line to do! They should stick to Statues, those look much better. If they want to give us diorama sets for the 1/6 scale figures let them focus on that!

I have old SSC Greedo and is still similar as new one. So maybe i will not go for it, but others yes. And about Jabba's guards and scum i have to see them and price and decide what to do and which to buy and see final price. But remember that SSC makes small runs to sell all so "get it now" or "cry for ever and ever..." And we have to note that shops, even SSC increases the price for more benefits!

I remember when Sideshow figures were $140 to $180. Of course that was more than 15yrs ago! In my opinion.. their figures haven't gotten better since then. Therefore the $280 price tag isn't justifiable!

So my guess is Squid head/Tessek, 1st Klaatu/Green Nikto with hat/helmet and darker tunic, Maybe a human guard or a Weequay, Bib Fortuna, Either Red Nikto or maybe Barada, maybe Mon Cal but not Ackbar, and 2nd Klaatu Skiff guard with the lighter outfit? And yeah the prices are ridiculous. HT prices but not HT quality. But hey, HT seem to have used Inart as an excuse to not just charge more for Artisan, but to raise prices across the board. Chopper sure doesn't come with heaps of accessories like R2, but he'll cost you over 400 bucks AUS!

Probe Droid PF, Sideshow has done this before. They will set an edition size, but based on sales may not product the entire batch. They may only produce 500, leaving them the option to produce the the remaining 500 later down the road if they feel the demand is still there.

On the PF Probe Droid, the same exact thing happened with the PF Thor Breaker of Brimstone statue. I ordered and received mine a year earlier and it was listed as sold out. Then it was relisted as a pre-order. Are they double-dipping on the edition numbers? Did they short production for lack of initial orders then bring it back once secondary market prices indicated additional interest? I wish SS and HT would be far more transparent as this stuff makes them look a little sketchy...

12 figures x 280USD = 3,360USD. YEP. A lot of money but getting them during 1.5-2 years. SSC releases figures too slow, so you have time to save money and get all of them or many of them. I don't think SSC will release all of them (12 figures) in months or in 1 year...even with rush...
