Thankfully, Sideshow allows you to pay in installments... In other words, they generously "allow" you to pay for the figure before its release date instead of just paying the whole bill when it's ready to ship. I'd rather just put the money aside myself than use Flexpay.

Yup.. Mine pic.. Hand is not mine.. My buddy is holding it up for me to take a shot.. Tis is actually a prototype for visitors to play ard with.. Hence the color is abit off.. Actual pcs gold inside a display cabinet is much shiner.. Its realli heavy.. N bandai person beside highlighted to me its about 1kg.. Real solid piece with lots of diecast.. U can see the actual to b released pcs photo at the same event here: www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.369636063130047.89796.343703155723338&type=1

Managed to speak to Bandai executives at Anime Festival Asia 2012 over the weekend and did a video review of C-3PO.
This figure rocks! Almost full diecast and full of heavy metal goodness.
Here's my review:

Thanks for the video Charles!
I don't know why but I am still on the fence on this one. I do know I would definitely get R2D2 when it comes out

Thanks for the compliments guys! zman - I hope you have a chance to touch and feel the figure when it's released. You might be impressed. I personally love the diecast but the price point is indeed a little steep. @temujin - It's going at 26,800yen for pre-order on amiami

You gotta love the "vintage" prices on new Gucci toys!
I have to admit that C3PO never looked this good.

Anyone pick this up yet? I might buy this version this week. This thing has scored perfect scores everywhere I have seen a review for it. Only complaint seems to be the eye color and some people who ordered from ami ami are reporting blemishes.
Is this guy made in Japan or China?

I'm 80% sure it's made in China...
Please, do let us know how you like the figure though.
