[TonTon]

Nice. Very nice.

Cool! While we wait for the Iris set, what is everyone’s opinion on the quality of this set compared to that of a Yunsil set or Kato’s previous set? How would it stack up against the the others.

Mola Ram is intersting to me, but I'm more for the good guys. Now if we were talking Short Round or Marion Ravenwood I'd be 100% in for that!! Would LOVE a great Marion.

I think this set, from what I have seen from the pictures, gets the jacket length right. I have the Yunsil and Sovereign Studios jackets and they are both too short around the waist in my opinion.

There's definitely pros and cons to every clothing set, especially over time. If someone had all of them you could mix-and-match an amazing outfit.

At least based on pics, I'd probably still give the edge to the others in terms of quality of the materials, aa those shirts and pants did have a softer and less stiff look to them.

But to be fair we haven't seen this Iris outfit properly futzed yet either, so hard to get a great feel for it at the moment. I definitely see the potential though and it's a huge step up from the HT at least.

Is there anyone who sells his set?
Pm

Kato's work is amazing, no doubt about it but it is crazy expensive. Yunsil, I have a jacket and it's beautiful imho. People say it's too short, maybe it is a tad, but I'm not convinced it is a lot too short so it overall is a very nice jacket. Very soft too and hangs great. As for Iris's set, as stated before we've really only seen it on a stiff armed model. Properly futzed it could look quite different. I'm not 100% sold it's not actually too long but we'll have to see. The shirt seems great & the pants look good too but again, we've have to see how and if they crease. Indy's actual pants are a wool and cotton creases rather than folds as wool does but again, making things in one sixth scale rather than 1:1 creates some difficulty, that is why those who can do it well, charge the big bucks. There's definitely pro's and cons to them all, but I think alot of it will come down to personal preferences too.

Any chance we will get this set before the holidays? It is now 18 November and there has been no updates.

I don't think anyone here minds waiting for their stuff, it's just a lack of updates that's probably annoying people the most from what I can see. Supposed to be shipping November but we have no idea how close that is to being realised or not, the payment list has not been updated and no progress pics of how the manufacture is going. These will certainly be worth the wait, and no-one wants to rush Iris or upset her, but ultimately, these things are not cheap and people have a vested interest in knowing how it's going. It's not unreasonable.

If the wait is like the wait for Iris’ Road Warrior set happening right now, just prepare for a lesson in zen like patience. I think the Dude set took a long time too. Always good in the end though. You’ll never hear me complain ?

 

[Luisenigma1]

Finally got an update. So Iris was planning to get it all out on the 11th but their was an issue so it will be delayed until December. She does apologize for the trouble. I'm also waiting to get the updated list from her.

 

[Ecklectic]

Thanks for the update, Luis.

Did she contact you with that information as soon as she knew there was a problem or did you get that information only after sending numerous emails to her asking for an update?

The latter sadly. I've sent her 4 messages to updated me and she finally got to me. But we'll see what happens

 

[Grifter]

Any openings? Willing to take a spot

 

[Ecklectic]

Waiting to hear from Iris:

 

[Stanleykubik]

[Cellar Toys]

hey whats the body that was used for this again ? and whats the alternative for it ? thanks

I think it was the HT Han Solo ANH body.

 

[Mr.E]

I think it was the HT Han Solo ANH body.

I believe it was a Modified Banner-type body. Though I'm sure the Solo body would work fine.
