Sideshow Collectibles
Star Wars Busts and Life-Sizes |
|
Sideshow has the license to produce a number of Star Wars 1:1
scale collectables, which though not wearable helmets, are
still full scale busts and life-sizes of many popular SW characters.
Sideshow has built up a strong reputation for producing some excellent
sci-fi 1:1 scale products (such as the Full Size Terminator 2, along with
Predator and Alien busts, which can be seen Here) so there was a lot of
interest when they moved in on the Star Wars license with 1:1 busts of Darth
Maul, Yoda and Greedo, with the promise of some special life-sizes to come!

Admiral Ackbar Life Size Bust
|
|

|
| Well lets be honest, he's not the most
attractive guy in the Universe is he? Nevertheless Sideshow should be
applauded for producing a pretty excellent replica bust of Guppy-face -
despite the fact that its unlikely fans were desperate for them to replica
such a character. |
|

|
| As with all the Sideshow Busts its made of
Polystone and resin and I'm sure weighs a fair bit. From these studio shots
of the prototype Sideshow look to have done a great job on this with the
sculpt having an extremely close likeness to the Rebel Admiral seen in
Return of the Jedi. |

| We're not sure what size the run's going to be
but we'd be surprised if its more than 400. Therefore its one of those
collectibles that in years to come will be fetching a good premium on
fleabay! |
