The Emperor's Throne! YEAH! Would love that, but it would require 90' hip and knee articulation...

Boba Fett was my only 'must have' from the Black Series. It looks great - highly recommended for fellow Fett fans - but I also bought the white 'prototype' version and found that one very disappointing. They just skipped painting the identical mold! As a result, many nice details from the original are omitted or lost, and the 'battle damage' dents just look like sloppy flaws in the mold. The result is plain and boring by comparison. Frankly, I find it a bit audacious that they charged exactly the same shelf price for less workmanship: plain, white plastic. Next month's re-release (of the white prototype) might be improved, but I'm not holding my breath. It actually annoyed me so much I gave mine away to charity.

I'm surprised to find myself choosing THE EMPEROR as my favourite in this display! Is it my imagination, or are his eyes glowing? Very good likeness. Hope it looks this good up close!
