Slave Leia Premium Format
« on: October 31, 2008, 01:41:46 PM »
Sideshow has finally done it, they've enticed me into buying one of their Premium Format figures.  These are 1:4 scale, and exquisitely detailed.  This latest unveiling is none other than the iconic Princess Leia as Jabba's Slave.  The exclusive version comes with a 1:4 scale Salacious B. Crumb as well.  The whole thing will run you $275, but can also be purchased with the FlexPay plan, for $91.66/month for 3 months beginning in March.  For more info, click on the banner below!

I pre-ordered Leia PF, but since I'm not interested in the Crumb exclusive at all, I'm getting her from another place - regular will do for me perfectly.

More pics of the statue:

My wife is wanting Crumb for herself actually.  Sorry Serg, I forget that sometimes people don't want the exclusive version.  I should have posted the non-exclusive links as well.  Let me know if you haven't ordered it yet or not, and I'll get that link for you!

I already pre-ordered her but not from SS since ordering directly from SS is quite expensive for Europeans. I didn't want the exclusive because I was never interested in Crumb or Jabba scenes. The only exclusive I'll ever get would be the PF Stormtrooper if he ever gets made (and if the exclusive is something important) ;)

This sure does make me remember why ROTJ is almost my favorite film. Wow does this look good. I wonder what ole Carrie thinks about this one?

I think Carrie will agree with this since the statue is more accurate than the Gentle Giant one where they really improved her bust... ;)

I ain't touching that one Serg! fett

I remember the interview they had with her about how she got into the shape she was in for ROTJ. She said George sent her to a "fat farm".  Time did to her what it does to us all, but it still makes me remember my boyhood crush and smile.

Talk about proving your point Serg. I see it exactly now and the SS version does look totally more realistic. I bet your right, Carrie will be pleased by this one over the others.

Both GG and Koto statues are great. GG made a full woman there if you know what I mean ;) , Koto made her really  nice and Sideshow made her quite realistic. As for faces until I see more pics of the PF one I think the GG one is better she looks a lot like Carrie (not in my picture since that is over-lighted).

Ok, so I just got my exclusive version of this piece, and all I can say is, I know exactly why they call them premium format!  The detail is simply amazing, and the face detail is as close to Carrie Fisher as I've ever seen.  Stay tuned for the official ISY Image Review of this piece!

Check out the front page for the Image Guides on this baby.  Simply fantastic, that's all I can say.
