I unfortunatly have neither the display space or the funds for that I'm afraid. I'd cherry pick if I were to get into this line at all. Fett is the most tempting for me so far, with Obi-Wan and the Gamorrean close behind. No interest in Vader and I'm 50/50 on Maul.

The one I'll probably have the most trouble resisting will be Grievous. The concept behind that one looks amazing and truly unique.

Where'd you see that?

EDIT: Nevermind, found it. That does look pretty cool.

@ the 1:30 mark for anyone else that wants to see it. Looks like a pre-cyborg Grievous. Very different.

It didn't have a NRD when I ordered it and my receipt says nothing about a deposit.

Strange. I clicked on the email link when I saw it in my inbox this afternoon and it had the NRD then. After reading the comments here I went back to check thinking maybe I misread it but the NRD was still there.

The price is fine for me but SS need to justify it by giving us a solid production piece. Really like the look of the show piece...

I think this statue is brilliant! Everything about it is flawless. I love it. BUT I'm not going to order it yet. I want to wait until in-hand pics show up to see what they come up with from the factory. My confidence in Sideshow is wearing thin now.

I have a strategy for the Mythos line. As much as I dig the entire line, I will order each piece as the production pieces surface. If they're good, I'll bite. If not, no dice. Too expensive for me to buy sight unseen now.

The new Boba Fett Mythos Statue is what the doctor ordered in spite it being 1/5 scale. The Premium Format of the character as nice as it is was vinyl not resin / poly-stone

Great call on Cyborg Grievous HB, I'll be picking him up too. I think "series 2" of the mythos line will really define the longevity of it. If they're "must haves" like Obi, Vader, and Fett, then they'll sale and people will clamor for more, hopefully. I also hope they stick with "four pieces you expect and one big surprise!" like the gammy. The price still bugs me, but IF they can deliver close to proto quality like a few years ago with the Diablo Barbarian, it will be worth it, at least to me.

They have changed it from no nrd to nrd. I'm not sure if it was an unintentional omission or if there was no nrd for day one, which would be a crazy new approach.
