SHFigurearts Tamashii Limited Star Wars II : Clone War, Padmé Amidala.

PADMÉ AMIDALA
(CLICK THE PICTURES TO ENLARGE [ALL MY PICS DIMENSIONS IS 1000x1000px OR 1920x1080px] POSSIBLE FOR WALLPAPER USE)

I got this Tamashii Limited set long time ago when it release, I open the box a few times, but never got chance to take the pictures. Personally think this is a decent Amidala action figure on the markets, not comparing to 1/6 scale version on the markets, can't compare either, with the scale of this range, others hardly compare with it. Natalie Portman is also one of my favorite actress on the screen, she is beautiful, well acting skill(won best actress in year 2011), smart...

Padmé Amidala
was elected Queen of Naboo at the age of fourteen, soon after which she was forced to contend with the Trade Federation occupation. Her resolve to liberate her people led to the removal of Supreme Chancellor Finis Valorum from office, the election of Naboo's Senator Sheev Palpatine to the chancellery, and the chain of events that would ultimately lead to the unraveling of the Republic. Upon the conclusion of her two terms as queen, Amidala continued her career in public service as Naboo's representative in the Galactic Senate.

At the height of the Separatist Crisis, Amidala became the target of an assassination attempt due to her opposition to the Military Creation Act. To ensure her safety, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and the Jedi High Council arranged for her to return to Naboo under the protection of the Jedi apprentice Anakin Skywalker, whom Amidala had befriended years earlier during her time as queen. Shortly after the events of the Battle of Geonosis—the opening conflict that sparked the Clone Wars in which Amidala herself took part in—Amidala and Skywalker secretly wed on her homeworld, with only the droids C-3PO and R2-D2 bearing witness.

During the war, she became a leading member of the Loyalist Committee that sought to bring peace between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Her efforts were often controversial within the Republic Senate, an institution that largely favored the defeat of the Separatists and the centralization of power within the Office of the Chancellor...

Padme figure itself and the box.

Padme Amidala 360 GIF.

It's height around 5.6".

Close up on the normal face expression head. The head sculpt is not bad, not 100% look like Natalie Portman, but it looks good enough for a 5~6 inch action figure. (best, I think)

Another face expression head part. This one looks like teeth is showing too much, kind of look like overbite...

Pretzel bun hair at the back of the head.

Damaged clothes showing the flesh of Amidala.
(it is kind of weird that the beast scratch Amidala's back, but the whole lower piece of the shirt fall off, that is a tiny chance the beast nail caught Amidala's shirt and tear it right off, it's like the director of the movie intended to show Natalie Portman's belly(ahem!)...)

Back of the shirt with crack marks of Nexu beast, but the back of Padme doesn't have any scratch marks or wounds.

Shoulder bracelet on both shoulders painted metallic silver paint.

All of the details on this figure look almost exactly same like in the movie.

And there is some weathered effects on the boots too (caught dirt in the arena), very nice.

Damn't, that is sexy. (for an action figure)

Seriously, this is not the reason I get this figure...

Some details under the boots, wonder what brands she is wearing.

Back and forward movement is good, because there are two ball joints on the neck part, and the head can turn 360 too(I didn't do that, it is so creepy to do so).

Shoulder and elbow joint works well, just the wrist joint movement is limited.

 Two ball joints on the ribs and waist position...

...back/forward movement do well.

But the waist can only turn a small amounts of angles. (she needs to work hard on flexibility on the waist...)(no pun, ok?)

Thigh can lift up to 90 degree angles, knee can fold over 120 degree angles, ankle tilting is fine but poor back/forward movement, and it got toe hinge too.

An E-5 blaster from the fallen droids, the only choice of weapon she could get in the arena.

Handle and the main body is separable for Padme small hand, but the handle's pegs is very loose, blaster keep falling off when I posing the arm.

My first choice blaster babes, lol.

Nice...

Compares to previous SHF battle droid version.

Both blaster is totally different molding, because the details of the blasters is different on each blaster.

Compare to her LEGO counterpart.

Both of the figures look exactly same. (I got LEGO bricks blindness, lol)

Clone War SHFigurearts line up. (I missed SHF Anakin, hope someday I could find one)

Compare to other characters.

She is quite a good gunslinger in the series.

"Why Ani? Why are you so obstinate? Sometimes you have to listen to me."

"Oh, Ani..."

"What about me? What about me? I want hug too!" Lil Padme.

"Me! Me!" Lil Padme yells. Padme really miss Anakin a lots...

Surrounded by Separatist Battle Droids! Doom--?

Here's come the helps! Jedi! Powerful ally!

"Protect the senator!!" She is safe, finally, with the army of clones, she can strike back to the force of darkness!

SHFigurearts Star Wars II : Clone War, Bounty Hunter Jango Fett.

BOUNTY HUNTER JANGO FETT
 (CLICK THE PICTURES TO ENLARGE [ALL MY PICS DIMENSIONS IS 1000x1000px OR 1920x1080px])

Jango Fett

was born in the years prior to the Invasion of Naboo. He claimed to have been born on the planet Concord Dawn, a Mandalorian world. He wore Mandalorian armor after becoming a bounty hunter and assassin for hire, a fact that led the government of Mandalore to label him as nothing more than a common bounty hunter.



In the years before the Clone Wars, on one of the moons of Bogden, Fett was recruited by Count Dooku, using his Sithname of Tyranus, to be the genetic model for the clone army created by the cloners of the planet Kamino. Fett agreed and, in addition to his fee of twenty million credits, also requested an unaltered clone for himself, one who was not subjected to the typical growth acceleration and behavioral modifications given to the clones. Fett raised this clone as his son, whom he named Boba Fett, and remained on Kamino to supervise the flash-training of the clone troopers.

Jango Fett was also an associate of pirate captain, Hondo Ohnaka, and fellow bounty hunter, Aurra Sing...




360 GIF.

Head height almost six inch.

Close up.

Back of the helmet.

Antenna/scope is foldable.

Close up on armor details, there is some weathered effects on this figure, very nice.

Jetpack details. (not rocket, this is the late version in the movie)

Right hand gauntlet. (those tubes is removable for changing parts)

Left hand gauntlet. (tubes also removable)

Holsters on thigh.

Jetpack is removable for some reason. (to remake that scene maybe)

Show print details.

Neck can turn 360 and forward/backward.

Shoulder, elbow joint articulation is limited, the shoulder joint can't extend for better forward movement.

Waist swivel joint can't turn 360, only more than 45 degree.

Legs articulations not bad.

The blaster parts in the holster.

It is extra parts for the complete blaster.

Dual blasters.

 Gunslinger with dual blaster pistols, cool.

Claw parts for right gauntlet.

Both gauntlet parts can install the hook.

Another hook parts for fired grappling hook.

What is the worst thing when a bounty hunter is targeting you? A bounty hunter with jetpack!

 He is sort of like cowboy in Star Wars series.

 Compares to Clone Trooper.

 Back.

 Clone War series comparing.

 My Star Wars SHF line up.

 The Bounty Hunter working under Darth Tyranus.

 Windu VS Jango!

Jango flamethrower-ed Windu, Windu immediately dodge the attack.

And followed by a blaster shot.

Master Windu reflected the blast.

Windu attack Jango, but he pull away the distance by flying up.

Jango quickly fired several shots on Windu.

But blaster is no use against Jedi.

Jango keep firing his blaster after he land on the ground.

Seems he is exhaust on fighting with master Jedi.

But then Windu manage to destroy his last blaster.

Jango block Windu's second attack.

Master Windu flick off his block.

And the lightsaber slip off his neck...

Jango drops on his knees......

The end of the best bounty hunter in Star Wars galaxy.
