Sideshow JAWS Maquette with Reference Materials

Check out this new piece from Sideshow. The exclusive comes with reference materials that might be of great interest to some members here.

 

Cool..

very nice...

 

I ordered one. If I decide I don't want it, I'll just cancel, but right now it's something I really like/want.

 

I think it rocks.

 

When is that coming...that's great.

VERY Cool.

 

I like this just reminds of when movies actually amazed me at how they did certain things but CGI has eliminated that wonderment.

I'm really liking Sideshow a lot.

They are doing some really exceptional pieces and not all that are mainstream subjects, my hat is really off to them for taking the chances and giving the collectors some great items.

Just saw the price. I seldom complain about prices but almost 300 bones?.

Knocked my interest level down a peg or two.

I like the direction Sideshow is headed but they need to work on those sweetspots a little.

 

Well said....

 

I have to agree with you on the price thing, with more and more for the collector to purchase it getting real hard to spread the cash around.

Jim

 

They offer FlexPay. You know you want it...

 

Price thing is one thing, but the thing is 28" long and 14" high. That's HUGE. I think it's a fairly decent price. If someone made a garage kit of something like this at that scale it would probably cost you at least $100-150 without any finish work or paint. Plus with the exclusive, you get those really cool blueprints. I think it's a neat idea.

 

The MBP model that was out years ago I think was the same price. $279 is not that bad. I sent in for a shipping quote. that might be the deal breaker for me.

 

Too good for me to resist. :love

I just pre-orderd one using flexplan.

 

28" long? *, that pic doesn't really reveal the scale, does it? $300 doesn't sound that bad at all...

 

Put it this way - that's just (approx) 4" shorter than the blade of an FX lightsaber... :love :love

 

That is very cool...
28" is huge...



Man, Sideshow IS putting out some awesome stuff, ESPECIALLY that 1:1 Aliens bust, I keep going back to that page, hovering over the buy button saying "Eating Kleenex for a few months isn't all that bad..."

 

yeah....but no beer either man.

 

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

FlexPay is the way, conveniently speading the total over 3 months.

That way, the kleenex dinners can be washed down with beer.

 

Flex Pay sounds interesting indeed, may have to give it some serious thought...
Mmmmm Kleenex and beer.....

 

That Price is not bad...
would Display nice with the Jaws theme playing in the Background.....

 

I always wanted a diorama of the shark on its tower on the underwater track, with the sinkable Orca floating next to it.

Nice reference materials. And the shark itselve looks beautifully done, love to see a better side view of the head though.

 

Here's a quick comparison page I made. Obviously, the angles do not line up exactly due to the limited reference photos available:

 

So what does "Second title costs 50 cents extra. mean?

 

Isn't it supposed to be a joke reference to eBay?

 

You got it.

 

According to what I have heard, it looks like these are going to start shipping in early August.

 

Use this link to order, doesn't cost any extra and the RPF gets a bite.

I've been waiting for some quality Jaws products for years. This is a must buy for me and I'm glad to see that so many others are excited about it.

 

I just re-watched Jaws last night with my boys. It was there first time and they loved it, the movie still works.. I was on the fence on this one, but after watching the movie again, I had to order it.

First the Bob Burns King Kong, and now Jaws. Its gonna be an expensive second half of the year.

 

Sideshow have announced the edition size for the Bruce maquette - just 250 pieces worldwide:

 

wheres my credit card....love the flick. i have to watch it at least once a month that and split second :confused

 

That's ridiculously low. I'm glad they're making it in spite of the small amount of demand.

 

BUMP.

These are shipping around now and I'm eagerly awaiting mine..has anyone here received theirs yet?

 

Here's a couple of pics I found online:

 

I am in need of the reference material, can anybody scan them or post a better picture? thanks.

 

I can take hi-res images of mine, but it won't be for a few days.

 

I'm gonna need a bigger wallet.
Laffo.

 

thank you
