Preorders are now open for the Star Wars Mythos Asajj Ventress statue from Sideshow Collectibles. Price is set at $595.00 and is expected to arrive in late 2020.

You want this, don’t you? Hot on the heels of the announcement of the Asajj Ventress statue, Sideshow follows up with the reveal of the striking Darth Sidious Mythos statue.

Sideshow is revisiting their Star Wars Mythos line and today have revealed the Asajj Ventress statue. Previous statues have included Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Ben Kenobi and Lomrokk (Gamorrean Executioner) – all of which we have reviewed. Hopefully this striking addition to the line will foster more interpretive releases in the years to come.

Sideshow Collectibles has announced their next figure in their series of Mythos Sixth Scale Figures – Boba Fett.

Preorders launch next week.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with a look at the Darth Vader “Dark Contemplation” Mythos Statue, the latest statue to be released from Sideshow’s Star Wars Mythos line.

PROS: While not perfect in its execution, the Vader Mythos statue is an amazing piece from concept to final production statue. It conveys a level of emotion and ambience  that few display pieces have on the market today. The sculpting is very well done, capturing the iconic costume in nearly every detail. And then there are the alternate head portraits. Sideshow’s crafters included both an “aged” likeness (reminiscent of Sebastian Shaw in Return of the Jedi) as well as a more youthful visage that is very close in its likeness to Hayden Christensen in Revenge of the Sith. These portrait are scary in their realism and almost appear to be made of flesh and bone. They, in and of themselves, are their own pieces of art.

CONS: Initial prototype imagery depicted Vader with a different pose for his right arm/fist and I think that would have improved the presentation even more than the production arm included. Also shown was an alternate arm revealing his cybernetic hand that too would have been great to have offered. Finally, the portraits revealing the human Anakin head are missing the breathing nozzles for the mask again as shown in the prototype.

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with a look at the Boba Fett – Bounty #239 Statue, the latest statue to be released from Sideshow’s Star Wars Mythos line.

PROS: You’d be hard pressed to find anything wrong with the pieces in the Mythos line and this one is no different. Top to bottom, the Boba Fett statue is an amazing achievement in sculpt, paint and presentation.

CONS: A gorgeous piece only limited by its premium price tag.
