once you get all 6, you'll have all the pieces to make a Darth Vader model as well. Damn tempting, but I don't think I can drop the coinage on these. Good news for Koto SW collectors though

yeah, that's a lot of coinage to spend to get a BAF Vader. Maybe I can just get the Vader from ebay in the future.

Damn, I don't really collect any SW stuff or statues, but an IG-88 and Bossk would be tempting as hell...

Unless the Vader model is huge...then it's not really worth buying Bounty Hunters I don't want.

Hmmm, aside from the Jedi, the Bounty Hunters are the only Star Wars figs I'm really interested in.

Have to see how these turn out.

the Boba is damn sweet looking!!! He'd be the only one I am interested in and as cool as Vader is I don't need all the hunters just to get him

No it wont. McFarlane doesn't make statues like that, they're not in competition.

I only care about Fett. Now if you could connect their bases, that'd be awesome.
Spawnomite
11-13-2007, 01:51 PM
Yes, you can connect the bases.

those look great!
moviemaniacks
11-13-2007, 02:07 PM
man, now I'm really tempted. I kind of assumed that the Vader would be in a pose that would look like he was addressing the hunters ("No disintegrations!") but after seeing the hunters in action poses, I guess that wouldn't work either. I'll have to see about these. Where is the cheapest place you can normally get these?
Spawnomite

If I remember corrrectly, Vader has his own base and all the bounty hunters connect around him. That's why each base is a hexagon. It looks bad ass with Vader in the middle surrounded by the bounty hunters!!!

I would have to see them in non concept form to determine if I have any full interest in them..Seeing a full diorama set up around Vader would be a strong deciding factor

That boba is nice but is it really a "free" statute if you just spent over $600

yes, considering that the Vader itself would probably cost $100 on its own

I'll probably get Boba someday - with only one exception I buy my kotos on eBay, and I wait until I find a good deal. I've gotten several in the $55-$70 range. The Royal Guard I couldn't wait on, but still got a reasonable deal considering the $120 retail price.

All the bounty hunters look awesome, but the Vader is quite lame.

Huh, never realized just how many guns in Star Wars were based off the MG42. I knew a lot of SW guns were based of WWII weapons, but the MG is used like 3-4 times.

Anyhow, aside from Fett and Dengar the poses seem awfully static and generic, at least to me.

That Vader looks like he's modelled after a Barbie doll version or something.... *yawn* He could've been way more hardcore

But that Fett is awesome!

Ooooh, can't wait to get my "reaching for something off the top shelf" Vader... :p

Most of the Bounty Hunters look cool though.

I will get boba but the Kto Vader I got at comic con for $45 looks better IMO.
