    I guess so....

    So why does it seem that both Vader's tend to lean back too far as if they are competing in a limbo tournament???

    Anyway...What is everyone's favorite koto in their collection???

    At first I thought it was because he was too top heavy, but now it looks like it could be the peg holes in his feet are too big.


    My favorite of my collection is definitely the Bly, followed by the 501st trooper, Boba Fett, Snowtrooper, Scout Trooper, AOTC Clone trooper, ROTS Vader, and finally Sith Anakin. I have some extra spending money coming up, so I hope to add the stormtrooper to my collection soon.

    I only have 3; I think the detailing on the shocktrooper is the best but I love the pose and base on the scout. Since the scout is also my favourite trooper variant I think I'll have to go with him.

    I'd love to have a statue of one of the Marines who took out Ki-Adi! But only after we get a Grievous, Sidious, and Tyranus.

    heres a thought for a future Koto: a Cody, holding a holographic Sidious ("execute order 66")

    now that would rock!

    ^^i see that as being more of a gentle giant thing. they dont have many statues yet, so hopefully obi-wan in the clone gear doesnt mean that we wont see a statue of a clone or stormtrooper anytime soon.

    however....next up should be grievous. still waiting for pics of that, even rough sculpts would make me happy. i really want to see the pose.

    I want them to do Cody next, but not with the Sidious hologram. Just have him posed with his blaster, maybe with Obi-Wan's saber hanging from his belt.

    How so what? o_O

    I just want a Emperor Palpatine perhaps with force lightning coming out of his finger tips. It would be easy for him to snap together having just one big robe on...I just wanna see an awesome Palpatine collectible.

    The mini bust that's out is by far the coolest Palpatine collectible ever made.

    SAA, you can never have too many troopers.[face_shame_on_you] I guess for a non trooper character I'd want Dooku to be next, followed by Qui-Gon.

    Yeah, I know they'll get around to all of 'em eventually. Troopers are their specialty. As long as they keep getting better with faces, then I'd also like to see a ROTS Obi-Wan, TPM Obi-Wan, Jedi Luke, TESB Lando, Wedge, and some more I can't think of right now. I magine if they did a Jabba.:p It's nothing I would buy, but it would be interesting to see it done.

    They seem to think all white males have large noses!?

    I'm very much considering ordering Koto Slave Leia, because I think it's the best face yet by Koto. And the body is just plain awesome :D. But I have to take it easy, because I have those 3 Sideshow SDV figures, the Royal Guard Statue and 2 GG Animated maquettes to pay for by the end of this year [face_money_eyes]...

    And there's so many other Kotos I still want :_|

    well i wont be "buying" anything new for a little while. still have money to set aside for all the preorders, but i keep spending it! i always find a deal i feel that i need to jump on, so instead of setting the money aside, i order something else (like the boba fett statue)

    well my bly came in. UPS crushed the box some. so the top the koto box is all jacked up. figure looks fine though, i'll look more closely tonight when i get home. since i only get things that i actually take out of the box (unlike my hasbro days) i'm not too worried about it. just a tad disappointed.

    I just got my Stormtrooper in yesterday. I am really not impressed by it. It looks like he leans forward way too much. I am not sure which one to get next. The 501st or Darth Maul have caught my eye.
