Jaina Solo X-Wing Pilot Bishoujo Statue

PoloTheJedi · Jul 29, 2011

No body have seen the new project of kotobukiya the Jaina Solo X-Wing Pilot Bishoujo Statue.

what do you think about it ?

StarbaseEarth · Jul 29, 2011

Nice bust...I mean statue

Mechleader · Jul 29, 2011

Cool! Would like to see a finished version!

CaptainAlex · Jul 30, 2011

Wow. Never thought that would a character to get the Koto treatment. Nice.

Is there more to the sideshow that can be posted?

deathstar1000 · Jul 30, 2011

Never thought SW would get the bishoujo treatment. SWEET!

duncan27 · Jul 30, 2011

sure buy for me

Jedi_Eeth_Koth · Jul 31, 2011

Bishoujo statues are not my thing. I think Jaina's a great character choice, but I would probably pass on her in this scale due to space.

It is nice to see something really different. I guess it would be smart not to re-hash the same character statues that have been done to death.

deathstar1000 · Jul 31, 2011

Hoping Juno isn't too far behind. Can't even imagine how a bishoujo Slave Leia would look like.

Rodders · Aug 21, 2011

Very nice. What does "Bishoujo" mean?

deathstar1000 · Aug 21, 2011

Bishoujo - literally "beautiful young girl", is a Japanese term used to refer to young and pretty girls, usually below university age.

Rodders · Aug 24, 2011

Thanks. Make me feel kinda creepy.

The_Chosen_1 · Aug 24, 2011

Cool to see the EU getting some love.

Deathbymonkeys · Aug 24, 2011

OMG I missed this! OMG YES!

Imrahil2001 · Aug 26, 2011

Yeah! Sexualize those underage girls!

HeadlessGree · Sep 9, 2011

wow pretty neat..would like to see some finalized photos but I do dig Koto's Bishoujo line

deathstar1000 · Sep 9, 2011

Hope to see Mara Jade, Leia, Padme, Aayla, Shaak Ti, Juno...man there are a lot of good choices.

Really want to see a Mara and Leia. They need to change the helmet on Jaina. Her helmet looks like Lukes but without the rebel symbols.

I noticed when looking through the 2012 toy fair Kotobukiya pictures on their stand that they aren't too sure themselves when this figure will be made?!? On the $59.99 price tag it says the figure will be out in the 3rd quarter of 2012 but on the picture it says it'll be available in the 4th quarter of 2012??? lol

Something else I am wondering about..., is this character supposed to be a child rather than an adult??? The reason I'm wondering is because of Kotobukiya's price tag, $59.99 for a 1/7 scale figure seems rather cheap when others they've made are selling for $99.99 or $129.99..., so I thought maybe she'd be a tad on the short side (a bit like Yoda, only a bit taller..., obviously).

It's not going to be 1/7 scale. That series is smaller.

costell2 · Apr 27, 2012

I am really looking forward to this.... this looks really cool!

The original photo in this thread indicates 1/7.

Sorry about that, looks like it is. I was thinking it was going to be along the size for the marvel and dc stuff they have done. Which I think is smaller.

kevb0977 · Apr 28, 2012

The price sounds 1/10 scale ($59.99) but as it said it's 1/7 scale in the promo picture I wondered if this was maybe a short teenager character rather than a fully grown woman..., it just seems cheap to me, then again it's an expanded universe character so maybe it's not very popular BUT if that's the case then WHY make it??? :\

costell2 · Apr 28, 2012

I am assuming it will be in the 1/7 scale... I say that because at my LCS they have the Ghostbuster Bishoujo statue and it look to be in that scale and it would just be logical that it be the same scale. Also, I would assume it is in the same scale as the Marvel and DC Bishoujo statues.....

kevb0977 · Apr 29, 2012

I thought the Marvel and DC Bishoujo statues/figures were in the 1/10 scale range??? I can see I'm going to have to hunt around & look them all up..., see if these are made in both scale ranges (only interested in the Star Wars line so don't really pay much attention to the other stuff Kotobukiya make)!?!

kevb0977 · Apr 29, 2012

Had a look & the bishoujo collection are in the 1/7 scale, they also sell on the kotous website for $59.99 so I guess that's where they got the price from.

I might pick up Jaina... but then I'll be inclined to pick up more EU figures, should they release them.

I'd like them to make a 1/7 scale Blackhole Stormtrooper..., that's probably my favorite expanded universe character. Wouldn't mind seeing a few of the other Darth's though i.e. Talon, Revan & Malgus.

Drerunsit · Apr 29, 2012

The Blackhole Stormtrooper is okay... I think I would like a 1/7 Darth Revan, Malak, or Bane (without Orbalisk skin). I have yet to dive more than 5 books into the EU, along with Knights of the Old Republic. More than anything, though, I would like to see a vehicle line. I think Koto could do a nice AT-AT, AT-ST, or Star Destroyer.

kevb0977 · Apr 30, 2012

Yes, I think your right there..., I was rather impressed by the X-Wing Fighter they made. Unfortunately as it isn't part of my focus I passed on the chance to buy it (more than once) but I still like it. I'd definately buy an AT AT, AT ST, Star Destroyer or a Tie Fighter if they were to make them though.

Drerunsit · Apr 30, 2012

I've been tempted several times to get the X-Wing because the pictures alone look awesome... but the price tag has drawn me away.

kevb0977 · Apr 30, 2012

Yes, it's a bit pricy really isn't it!!! :| Alot of work probably went into making it though so I guess it's understandible..., any new vehicles they make would be equally expensive I would expect.

Drerunsit · Apr 30, 2012

I think the price would depend on the intricacy of the model. I wouldn't mind a simple AT-AT as long as the exterior is accurate.

kevb0977 · Apr 30, 2012

I'd like an AT AT too..., I've been tempted to get the new Hasbro deluxe one that's coming out soon, it's £135.00 though BUT it's over 24 inches high, 28 inches long & 12 inches wide, you also get a 3.75 inch AT AT Driver & a speed bike with it SO that's not only alot of AT AT for your money, you also get a couple of nice extra's too!!!

jkno · Apr 30, 2012

I always hoped Koto will continue the ship line with an AT-AT. I have the Master Replicas Studio Scale version, but I would like a smaller AT-AT, especially since another company (Code 3) wanted to make one and never got to...

Drerunsit · Apr 30, 2012

I really like Code 3's AT-ST. It's hard to find and I've only seen it once on eBay for quite a bit of $$... I think it was around $300.
