Star Wars - Asajj Ventress Mythos Statue by Sideshow

[Skoob]

Wow! I love it.

Edit: I was wishing that Sideshow or somebody else would do a 12" figure based on this design, but it probably wouldn't translate well to that format -- the costume especially.

This is really good -- the best collectible realization of the character to date. Especially love the face sculpt with pupils in the eyes.

Kotobukiya might be the one to do it, if it happens anytime soon. They seem to be the only company with a license to target the smaller scale with the ArtFx line. But for all we know, they will do a Bishoujo or her instead lol.

I think Skoob was talking about a 12" (1/6 scale) articulated figure, not a ~1/12 scale statue "figure".

Ohh my bad! In the 1/6 scale articulated market, I think its just a matter of catching some companies attention. They might not call it Asajj Ventress because they won't have an official license, but it will look like the character.

Of course, then there is the option in the 1/6 market to just buy different bodies, head sculpts, and clothing to make your own too (its the possibilities like that which make me feel that the 1/6 articulated figure collecting is like an entirely different beast of its own).

Got to echo the 1/6 scale sentiments; that’s the first thought I had- ‘why can’t this be a 12” statue?!’
Regardless, this is a really great interpretation of one of my favourite Prequel Era characters. The intertwining robes are very Star Wars and the red is totally indicative of the Night Sisters of Dathomir.
I hope Hot Toys dare to give us a Ventress. It must only be a matter of time until the Black Series tackles her.

With a Black Series Dooku on the way it makes sense that Asajj might not be far behind, it would have been odd to have her released first.

This is a beautiful statue with an unusually non-sexualised pose, pity about the price.

I'd love to see an articulated figure by Hot Toys.

Regarding the costume, I think a more realistic expectation for soft goods might be something resembling the outfit worn by Ninth Sister in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. I'd post a link to some images or video, but I don't want to spoil the game for those who haven't enjoyed it yet. It's GREAT.
