I regret not pre-ordering her but wasnt sure when, or if it would ship. She does have a lot of good detail to her outfit. Just on another note in this particular outfit her decoy never wore it only Padme did. I have all of her portrait dolls from the early 2000's this does look like a major upgrade. Well once Ep1 hype dies down hopefully I can add her to my Amidala doll collection. ❤❤❤❤
back in the day Hasbro did their portrait edition of Amidala, I always wondered why they didn't do a version of this outfit. The play doll version wasn't near the quality of the other two costumes. This looks like a lovely version of Amidala and quite affordable.
1:04 Not to sound rude, but no. That’s not at all a reason why 3P companies avoid Star Wars stuff. When it comes to 3P stuff, there’s not “understanding” the series it comes from. If it makes them money then they will usually do it because there are very few 3P companies who make this stuff solely because they are fans of the IP. The reason 3P companies stay away from Star Wars IS because they are terrified of Disney because they proved in 2020 that they don’t mess around with 3P companies. In 2020 a prominent Ko/3P company especially for Transformers stuff called Wei Jiang got raided because they KOed a Hot Toys MK 85 Iron Man. That was just one of two events that killed that company and them getting shut down was a shot heard all across the world. In regards to this Pademe, Play Toys has got some guts making this. I hope they have some sort of backup plan because if they keep these Star Wars figures going, I don’t see them surviving much linger
"Pro tip" slightly curl up the bottom of the dress all around. Not only does that help with the length, it also helps with naturally filling out how the dress should look. I also painted the tip of her headdress with some red & silver along with adding a small bedazzle red rhinestone to make it more "screen accurate". *You may need to dremmel out the old painted stone to help it sit properly. Simple mods that make a big difference. Great review as always!
Are you going to be unboxing the threezero guts and Griffith figures when they come out? I want them but can’t afford them 😅 but watching you inbox them would be the next best thing if you like berserk
Same here but the episode 2 one looks kind of awesome. The only ep 2 outfit that you usually see of her is the white one about time one company did something new
Having her in hand for some time now, my only regret is that she is not in scale with Hot Toys Star Wars figures. Thought about kit bashing her using a shorter body but it would involve too much tailoring to reshape her dress.
@@JustinsCollection As a stand alone piece, she's perfectly fine. I wish she were closer to the recent Hot Toys Padmé height though. Even though she's shorter than Qui-Gon Jinn, she won't blend well with other figures sur as Battle droïds or a potential TPM Obi-Wan. If i ever want to display her along other TPM figures, i'll likely cheat and source a throne to get her seated.
The only thing i dont like bout this doll is the barbie they used for the body..it suks...but i gotta tell you the face is good. I mean look at it doesnt it kinda look like the actress? But then they messed up by making her look so angry. Why? The queen never looked angry, she always looked like she was thinking.
