| Yep I've noticed these appearing on a lot of sites. Now i know they are a little more widespread than I was lead to believe I will risk waiting for the Play.com Christmas sale as last year they through a lot of Star Wars bargains into the mix. Fingers crossed you never know!

| Yoda V's Palpy A very cool set. Would prefere a lightsaber scene because i'm not that fused on the lightning, you can really see Yoda using all his force powers by the look on his face . Definately on my wish list. What do other people think?

| IMO this is an awesome piece. I'm a stickler for likenesses and usually pass on most of the humans if I don't feel that the likeness is all that good (I would have definitely gone for the Clone Obi-Wan if it had stayed the same as the prototype), but I have to say that I think Koto have done an amazing job on capturing an accurate likeness of both Yoda and Palpatine. It's on my list of wants....

I've been disappointed with the Sideshow figures, and don't think that many of them have been particularly lifelike (I told you I was a stickler for likenesses). I realise that it can't be easy capturing this, but in my opinion, there haven't been many of the 12" figures which I've felt have looked like the actor, certainly not enough to persuade me to part with my money...

I agree with Darth McAdam that the Koto figures are better for likeness and I think impact cus the poses are action stances and the bases are all done individually to the character which adds to the whole image.
