I thought we’d be waiting longer before the S.H. Figuarts Star Wars EPIII Count Dooku went up for pre-order, but it’s actually this week. I can still legally say “FINALLY!” though because we saw the prototype a long time ago.
I still feel the colors are a little light but I don’t even care. Finishing off the Revenge of the Sith three-way duel has been a long time coming.
The cape is kind of freaking me out. The cloth looks nice and I don’t even mind the stitching, but it looks like two separate capes in some pictures.
Sporting the coolest lightsaber, in my opinion, the figure comes with both ignited blade and an unlit hilt that can hang on the belt.
Surprisingly, there are two heads but they aren’t that different. We’ve been seeing this a lot lately and while I should gripe because it’s better than no extra head at all, I’m still going to poke fun at it. It’s my job. We get a semi-angry face…
And a “Dooku is tired of your whining” face…
Add in some electric fingers…
….and I gotta have it. Badly.
DO YOU CARE NOW, DOOKU??
Remember, he’s a Soul Web exclusive, so you’ll have to hit up sites like nippon-yasan and anime-export in order to secure him. He’s listed at $60 so it’ll be a little higher than that. Pre-orders start Oct. 12th at 4PM Japan time.
