mines been pushed out until late Aug from Entertainment Earth,Got this same email. Gutted. Safe to assume my Kit Fisto preorder from dorkside will have the same fate?

I only preorder from EE if it's an exclusive or something everyone else sold out of. The last time I preordered from them I had to cancel it because I found the figures in store (it was General Leia and Maz Kanata) a few weeks after they'd seemingly hit everywhere else.mines been pushed out until late Aug from Entertainment Earth,
honestly an EE pre order is my safety net. lately all of the figures ive wanted have been getting shipped to me quicker and cheaper from amazon.I only preorder from EE if it's an exclusive or something everyone else sold out of.

It's certainly just the light, but he looks like he is being super annoyed by life, the universe and everything![]()

i still think the robe looks like tethered trash but we'll see
What?! No way, I can't wait for that robe...to stay in the boxi still think the robe looks like tethered trash but we'll see
It kind of looks like they did the collar thing around the neck like they did with Dooku. So part of the neck is the clothes.It better not be... Plo has a unique turtleneck thing, a regular Jedi torso just wouldn't work.
It's fine if they reuse some arm and leg parts, though.
I can only find one convention photo that shows off enough of the torso, but I believe you’re right. The robed part is obviously the same sculpt but they do include the turtleneck part, so I belive the “neck” is sculpted with the neck and extra fabric part as one.It kind of looks like they did the collar thing around the neck like they did with Dooku.

Agreed, that seems to be the case.I can only find one convention photo that shows off enough of the torso, but I believe you’re right. The robed part is obviously the same sculpt but they do include the turtleneck part, so I belive the “neck” is sculpted with the neck and extra fabric part as one.
I've never bought any custom soft goods, but if someone makes him Clone Wars robe, I dont think I could own the figure without acquiring one.I'm hoping custom robes for Plo will be made and purchasable online by some of our well-known customizers, as I'm not digging the stock Hasbro robe.
That’s what I thought as soon as I saw the boxed pic. The one side of the plastic tunic under the outer robe looks exactly like Mace’s length and maybe color too.There aren’t many photos of the figure without a robe, but I presume this is just the Mace body with a new head and new hands?
I feel like his robe always looked pretty terrible. It’s one of the reasons I held off from reordering Plo.That cloth robe looks horrible in the boxed picture![]()
Well that is part of the problem with releasing unique looking figures, should they have made an all new mold that only gets used once for Plo?Wow the Mace body doesn’t work for this, the design of the robes and the collar part just isn’t accurate at all. I wouldn’t bother getting this.
Gamestop says 5/29 release date, other sites say June/July/Aug...anyone kow the true release date?
Yes? They did it many times for Plo in the 3.75" lines.Well that is part of the problem with releasing unique looking figures, should they have made an all new mold that only gets used once for Plo?
it IS the same body mold.I believed is an all new sculpt, not a re-used mold from Mace or anybody else. will wait to see a review or pictures before making any judgement. most of the time Hasbro won't reused any molds for other characters with the exception of Dr. Aphra and Jaina Solo.
Yeah, I'd be skeptical. Same with my Snowspeeder Luke. I don't think Plo is going to get delivered anytime soon - we'd have already seen in-hand pics from others, and unless I have missed something due to everything going on in the world lately, I've seen zero in-hand pics of Plo and Kit.So Amazon says that he's supposed to get delivered tomorrow. I can still change the payment method, so I'm very skeptical. Anyone else order from Amazon and get a shipping notice? Same with Kit Fisto?
If amazon gets these before Dorkside and Pulse I will be very surprised. We should know soon because I have them shipping soon too.Yeah, I'd be skeptical. Same with my Snowspeeder Luke.

Amazon maintains the original ship date until that date comes, then they will post “Delayed” or “Running Late” on your order status.So Amazon says that he's supposed to get delivered tomorrow.

And that they did. I got delays for Snowspeeder Luke early this morning and AOTC Anakin and Kenobi just a second ago. I’m sure Plo, Kit and the battle droids are next. Typical (US) Amazon (jp site seems better).Amazon maintains the original ship date until that date comes, then they will post “Delayed” or “Running Late” on your order status.

I don't think web stores have received the allocations just yet, usually when start going on eBay or someone post a review on YouTube, web stores start sending the allocated figures they received, however no sign of this been found anywhere, I'm sure they have to be delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic hitting the world.And that they did.

Yea that robe looks horrible, i understand since they wanted more articulation, I’m definitely debating on buying the black robes from scottacustoms, since I like The phantom menace look, & of course i gotta find a yellow blade to go with his lightsaber hilt, Jedi power battles theme. Also might repaint the Jedi tunic a red brown to match the robes color from both attack of the clones and revenge of the sith, while sticking with black robes of the phantom menace, basically 3 themes in 1 figure.![]()

Let me know what you do for the saber, I gotta have a yellow one for him, too. He was my favorite in Jedi Power Battles! Plus, I guess now yellow sabers are canon...Yea that robe looks horrible, i understand since they wanted more articulation, I’m definitely debating on buying the black robes from scottacustoms, since I like The phantom menace look, & of course i gotta find a yellow blade to go with his lightsaber hilt, Jedi power battles theme.
