Perfect Model C-3PO

Sideshow broke their standard model of posting preview photos on Tuesday and pre-orders on Thursday to unleash the new 1:6 scale C-3PO from Tamashii Nations yesterday.

This incredible new figure is constructed using die-cast parts, individual wires in the torso, working cylinders, three sets of extra hands and light-up eyes.  C-3PO also comes with a display stand, comlink and restraining bolt and is one of the most detailed 12″ figures we’ve ever seen.

He also comes witn a hefty price tag; $399.99.  The pre-order is up on Sideshow’s website and C-3PO is listed as a February 2013 release.  There is a non-refundable deposit of $40, but the payment plan is available for this release.

If you’re interested, head over to Sideshow’s website and check out all the photos.
