One thing I do not like about those statues is that you have to put them together. I'd much prefer they arrived fully assembled. Thats because I like to keep the boxes, and those are usually extremely large just to show every single piece. If assembled, the size could be greatly reduced. Not only that, but if you want to make use of the box again, you need to disassemble the staute. Since its just a pressure fit, I dont really like that as it will eventually loosen up, should you repeat the process a few times.

+Verithiell I would expect it depends how often you take it apart to be honest. I struggle to take mine apart and the same to put them together so I don't imagine there's too much chance of the parts getting very loose :)

I'd love to get one, but they are so rare on ebay nowadays. There is one for almost 300 bucks...

+Verithiell took me almost a year to be honest before I found mine so yeah, pretty rare. Keep on looking though, they are out there. Not sure i'd pay 300 tbh. Sounds like the seller is wishing on a star far far away :P, they were released years ago so wouldn;t surprise me that koto do another in the future, you never know mate

+Figureatively Speaking I do suspect they might release a 1/10 scale some time in the near future. But I dont really like those. Anyway, alot of those 1/7th scale are rare now, but this one is waty more expensive than most. I have managed to buy a brand new clone trooper from ep 2 for just 60 euros I think. Shipped it was pretty cheap for european standards anyway.

+Figureatively Speaking hunted one dowm yesterday for 75$ on ebay. Unfortunateloy shipping and tax is another 64 bucks, and the exchange rate is the worst it has been in over a decade. Oh well. Still, pretty happy with the purchase.

haha, nice catch mate. They are out there but I think determination is required to find them :P He's a nice figure though for sure so I am sure you won't be dissapointed.

+Figureatively Speaking Hello again! I wanted to ask you whether you had any problems with this guy (or any other koto statue with alot of white colouring) going yellow? I have been browsing ebay recantly and came across this statue. In the pictures it seems like the armor has gone yellowish a bit. Wonder if its just the photo or is that an actual problem with those pieces. here is the link: www.ebay.com/itm/Star-Wars-Kotobukiya-ArtFx-BIKER-SCOUT-1-7th-scale-Vinyl-Figure-Statue-OOP-/301859396930?hash=item464838dd42:g:sNcAAOSwa-dWqhnY

The helmet is not accurate.... I wish Kotobukiya made a new one, smaller... and more accurate

Anyway, its a real shame koto has given up on those amazing 1/7th scale statues. I personally think current 1/10 things they release are not even half as good. Sculpt wise they are great, but poses are boring (not to mention black square bases...). In that scale i'd much rather prefer to focus on figuarts figures for example.
