Not a Mac gallery, but...Leia

[blakespot]

Not computer related, other than the fact that she's sitting on the desk next to my 30" Cinema. I recently found this 10" tall "Slave Leia" model. Is it not sublime?

I had to share. (My wife is less enthusiastic about it.)

Cool model! I haven't seen that movie in ages, probably 4-5 years. I think I'll go and see it! Where did you find that model? It looks very well made

No way. Those Kotobukiya models are the best! First, they're expensive if they're the Kotobukiya ones because they're imports. For Christmas a friend of mine bought my boyfriend the Chewie. Last year I bought Boba Fet and a Scout Trooper. There is so much detail in these things regardless of character it's a nice compliment to the mac. And yes, I am female.

Where'd you find Leia? Disneyland has Chewie, the one I couldn't find for under $150 last year, she picked it up for $150 less some friend's Disneyland discount and somehow landed it for $50! Anyway I am as thrilled as you are I think. I'm silly like that.

I am going to pick up the Yoda and display him. Even though my desk is mostly comic book heros, the Yoda is sexy. My boyfriend however will not open his. We have four 45 gallon containers and about 20 12x12x12 boxes that contain star wars figures still in packages. I'm not allowed in the closet...ever! hahaha

Wow, that's great - you have to wonder what Carrie Fisher thinks of that (and if she has one herself ).

Just tell your wife at least its not one of these:

I'm pleased you share my enthusiasm. Very nice!

Indeed, it is a Kotobukiya model. I got it here, for $79 USD:

Is that real ammo?

Wow, that's great - you have to wonder what Carrie Fisher thinks of that (and if she has one herself ).

I remember an interview where Carrie Fisher described her panic about that costume and how she thought she was too fat for it.

About marketing of her likeness, she supposedly said this.

 

[backsidetailsli]

yeah
its actually one of my belts

[Lord Blackadder]

Ah...I guess it's a good thing they're dummy rounds, considering where they're pointed.

I've tried. Quality "Slave Leia" outfits are expensive - hundreds and hundreds of dollars. Google for them.

Why in every picture do you give the photographer the "Finger"

ummm those people arent me.
im not from rancid nor the casualties

 

[mattcube64]

Heh. I've got myself a 6 foot tall Jack Skellington plush replica from the movie "The Nightmare Before Christmas."

It represents my Live gamertag, Skel1ingt0n.

LOL Live rounds pointed in that direction would be less than ideal.

Rounds wont go off unless they are in a chamber.
They will "cook" like a smoke bomb.

[mkrishnan]

God am I glad I keep no weird creepy things near my macs.

 

[bartelby]

I have my Blythe dolls:
Here's Ché sporting the beginnings of some protoytpe glasses I'm making:

Here's Nara playing her bass:

And here's Pixie dressed up for Hallowe'en:

I also did a large Rasterbated image of Nara:

 

[killmoms]

For some inexplicable reason, this thread has made me want to purchase Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu figures... which means you've broken my brain. DAMN YOU!

 

[backsidetailsli]

[holamiamigos]

i could not sleep with those in my room
