i am disappointed they decided to do some weathering. Her suit is supossed to be chromy like knight armor and clean. Unless this was a badly painted prototype which makes ordering difficut as i would have to have this confirmed. If it has weathering, it is a no sale for me.

The prototype will be different from the mass release, but who knows by how much, look at Maul, some differences in his head paint.

If you want chromy, I bet the Bandai model will be vac metal.

Looks fine to me. I would rather they do that then make it out of stuff that is going to flake. Plus, it looks like she has actually been in battle.

Anyway, I'll pass on her until I see the movie. I need to make sure she isn't going to suck first.

I like the Phasma figure, however with the chrome plated appearance it would have approached to the perfection, this is a modified image by me:

Wait a minute, isn't her armor in the movie battle worn? The Figuart looks to recapture that in the pictures I have seen of her from the movie.

I have seen both types of armor's finish in the few images of her:

Chrome plated & like in the S.H.Figuarts figure.

Not bad, I guess it depends on NY's price and availability if I get one.

You can see the reflection of Jango Fett, unmasked and masked heads on the left side of the first photo. This line is fucking awesome.

The Stormtroopers and Vader are out, Jedi Luke too. Honestly the Troopers have inferior helmets, the articulation and general paint seem awesome but the helmets look more like the ones from Rebels. You'd be better off saving money and getting three Black Series Stormtroopers for around the same price.

This Chewbacca having jaw articulation looks bad, he looks like a ventriloquist dummy. Grievous looks stellar.

I agree: Figuarts did a surprisingly poor job of sculpting the stormtrooper helmet -- that, or they deliberately took 'creative license.' Anyway, it's annoying. Credit where credit is due: Black Series and MAFEX did a better job with the helmet.

I'd love to see a close-up of Figuarts Han. If Han looks like Harrison Ford, then I'm gunning for that Han.

I'm with you: Grievous looks superb. I just don't want anything in my collection that will remind me of the prequels.

Han and Chewy are must buys, but where is Leia? She is the only one missing now.

I'd happily never buy a hasbro figure again I lost faith in them with that god awful Darth Vader they put out. The price isn't that important to me when you're getting the quality you're getting from bandai, mafex etc

Ive only seen images with the one gun so I assume so but it would be nice to get all the accessories with the one figure.

So it appears that there will be THREE (3) versions of C-3PO:

a) Prequel Trilogy (unfinished, dirty, tarnished appearance)
b) Original Trilogy (gold, silver right leg, + companion R2-D2)
c) Force Awakens (gold, red left arm)

In other words, b) and c) are repaints of a). Correct?

The head sculpt for Tatooine Luke looks SUPERB.
