Star Wars Universe Thread: May The 4th Be With You

[Bad Moon Rison]

Not yet I was thinking about picking one up this week since they're price dropped off a bit , it's supposed to be a decent helmet but I love doing prop projects so most likely I'm going to mod the crap out of it to make it more screen acurate I've watched a few vids on YouTube and I think I can handle it, I'll post pics whenever I start the project

As for the trooper lids the only thing I see people *****ing about is the visible battery compartment on the back but that doesn't really bother me

I got ya you ever check out any of the anovos
Stuff. Expensive but look great.

 

[Jim Shady]

Yeah I saw the display they had set up at the con I was at this summer, they're stuff is top notch but pricey as hell the Kylo helmet is running close to $700 and they're notorious about taking forever to deliver product I know some cats who dropped $3000 on their vader 2 years ago and are still waiting

Damn 3k. 2 years is ridiculous.

I PO'd their Kylo Ren helmet the day it was announced last year for like $550. It sucks but for the quality of the helmet, it's actually a fair price. Their wait times are ridiculous though, but from someone who collects the high end SW stuff, it's actually pretty standard. Anovos, EFx, etc. They're all the same with announcing their stuff early and then sitting on PO's for years. It's the biggest downside to collecting this stuff.

Your only other choice, as far as official merchandise though, is this

Mines has to be him stepping to Vader in ESB. He was in over his head but the time he spent with yoda opened his eyes to the force. Once his papa dismembered him and aired some old dirty laundry on him Luke would go on to match his father in terms of his importance in the Galaxy and the continued quest of bringing balance to the force.

...next up, his daughter

I love the Cloud City fight so much Terrible *** whooping, but an excellent fight all around. Might go watch it right now in fact.

Watching ESB the few times it was on TNT last week made me realize I've never seen so many L's taken in a movie by the main character, which is probably why it's all worth to see him Come of Age in ROTJ.

1) Snuck by the Wampa
2) Stuffed into Taun Taun
3) Lost his co-pilot
4) Speeder got shot down
5) Got gassed after kissing his sis
6) Crashed in a swamp
7) Pretty much failed his Dagobah training
8 ) Didn't save Han
9) Went Will Smith after hearing his dad's news
10 ) Lost his hand
11) Lost his Lightsaber
12) Lost his X-Wing


Uncle Owen's farm was such a long way from everything he endured during ESB. It's so crazy.

 

[Sinner]

Finally watched S3E1... surprised that they've showed Ezra's Darkside temptation already.  Figured the transition would be more gradual and stretched out over a season.  

Anyway.

How are the foot soldiers rolling around the ground?!?! That a new feature to be added in this DLC?

They added the roll feature a while ago for all of its short comings at launch I do give them credit in that they've listened to the players and have made a alot of improvements as they've gone on I know alot of people feel burned by the whole season pass thing but it is very good content every one of the dlcs have had something good to add so far ......any ps4 users get at me @earthwormjim984 let's sqaud up and rule the galaxy

Yessir my favorite fight in the whole saga, luke hell bent on getting the guy who "killed" his father vader toying with him by fighting with one hand and testing him the entire fight then once luke gets a hit on vaders shoulder he gets pissed and ends the fight quickly by disarming him literally (kinda) then completely flips the entire series on its head by revealing he's daddy , just absolutely brilliant

How do you do the roll?

 

[Jim Shady]

How do you do the roll?

On ps4 you double tap the ○ while moving left or right with the stick

 

[noblekane]

Wish the roll only needed one button tap

I hate battle station except when you have to save r2d2. First time playing battle station and I got to play r2d2. Almost made it to the end too.

I doubt I will ever get a chance to play him again now that people know to sit back and attack anybody who comes near him

I did finally get to fly slave 1. It only took me ten months pretty cool how they have boba talking while your flying

Now just another ten months and I'll have flown the millineum falcon lol

I fly those vehicles almost every single game. Sometimes twice in a game. You just have to know where they spawn/stay low to the ground early in the game. Most people are trying to get kills up high any way and won't bother you if you're zooming around really fast hugging the ground.

I just noticed they added a new version of Slave 1. Played in it a few days ago when I got the hero vehicle pickup. Wasn't feeling it as much as the OG. Only got a chance to play that one game but is there another version of the Millenium Falcon also?

 

[noblekane]

i dont know. do you hear han talking while playing the falcon too?

 

[jaypesoz]

Speaking of the Falcon, after 10+ years, I have gotten my hands on one of the HOLY GRAIL of Star Wars collectibles. The Master Replicas Millennium Falcon. The going rate for these are absolutely ridiculous but I was able to find someone selling it for damn near the retail price, which is unheard of.

Driving two hours with my homie to pick this piece up after work on Friday and excited ain't the word for this. Gonna get a custom glass table to display this and use it as the center table in my mancave. Between this and the DeAgostini MF I'm building, I'm so pumped.

 

[Sinner]

Can't wait to see a comparison of the two! 

 

[jaypesoz]

Can't wait to see a comparison of the two! 

oh, for sure. I'll gonna photograph the hell out of these two.

In the meantime, here's a video I found from the performance. My big moment is at the 7:05 mark

 

[jaypesoz]

Hot Toys killin' it today.

 

[7th Chamber]

My wallet :x

 

[buschfan04]

That shore trooper is something. Money spent there

 

[Fozz]

Do you guys think Darth Vader will play a big role in Rogue One?

 

[Sinner]

Wait... Vader's in Rogue One?

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

So theoretically, this configuration of his suit should be identical to the one in ANH?

 

[CP1708]

Yes, it should literally lead right up to the moment they hand Leia the plans. (Not sure if they will actually go that far, may be reference only, but it's within hours/days of Tantive IV fleeing Vader's Star Destroyer.

Maybe they load the plans in R2 and put him on a shuttle or something, I dunno.

But Vader should look exactly as he does when we first see him in Ep IV

 

[Fozz]

So dope...Can't wait to see this movie.
