The Mandalorian - Din Djarin and The Child Premium Format Figure by Sideshow

[Dolemite]

So there are these rumors going around that Pedro Pascal is on the verge of quitting/being fired from The Mandalorian (or that he already HAS quit/been fired) 'cause he's pissed that he doesn't get to show his face? Like, didn't someone explain to him when he was originally case that that was the entire point of the character?

Anyway, if this is true, no biggie. Mando is played by a stuntman most of the time anyway (incidentally, John Wayne's grandson) and Pascal's Clint Eastwood voice can be easily imitated by just about anyone else on Earth. It'd be so easy to re-cast him and not have it impact the show one iota.

The rumors originated from We Got This Covered, and anything from there should be immediately ignored. They're essentially a clickbait farm. Sites pick their shit up because it all sounds like gold. And their wild claims get publicly refuted by industry people, which just gets them traffic.

Is Premium Format no longer mixed-media? I haven't looked at the line for a while.

Looks like the belt and bandolier may be a separate piece. The outfit all looks sculpted to me. But I have to admit that the good companies, like Prime1 or whatever it is, produce sculpts where I can't tell if it is actually cloth or all sculpted. That stuff is simply amazing.

They seem to go back and forth between fully sculpted and mixed media. Taskmaster, which they revealed in June, has a wired cape.

Oh, GODDAMMIT. I fell for a rumor originating from that piece of shit clickbait site? Ugh, I feel stupid. Believe me dude, I know better than to buy anything from We (Don't) Got This Covered, but unfortunately I read this on a few sites that probably got their news from them. I've got to check those source links in the future.

No mix media on a 1/4th PF is kind of disappointing. Those sculpted cloth areas look noticeably unrealistic at that scale.
