Darth_Shank has shared an image from the Bluefin booth Celebration booth showing off their upcoming 2017 San Diego Comic Con exclusive. It will be a Meisho Movie Realization Prototype Armor Boba Fett figure. Check it our below, and stay-tuned for more details on this as they become available.

Note: the caption reads Avialable [sic] at San Diego Comic-con [sic] and Premium Bandai Web Site; time will tell...

Hmmmm, thinking about that Boba Fett. I have the Ashigaru Stormtrooper and Royal Guard in that line and they are amazing and look bad ass on display too.

We first told you about the upcoming 2017 San Diego Comic Con exclusive Movie Realization Prototype Boba Fett figure last month during Celebration. Now thanks to the Tamashii Nations World Tour event that took place in New York this past weekend, we have a better look at the exclusive figure. Still no word on pricing, but that information should be coming soon.

Did you pick up the SDCC 2016 exclusive Sandtrooper from last year?  I'm not just thinking about Boba Fett -- it's on my "to get" list!

Interesting Tamashii article on Forbes from last year that I came across recently:

...excerpt from the article:
Quote
Big events like San Diego ComicCon have attendance upwards of 150,000 people and while people are coming to see us, they are also there to see everything else. So for us, our bespoke Tamashii Nations events are really important. Just having 500 people to come see a Tamashii Nations event versus 100,000 people at something like ComicCon and not knowing how many are coming to see your booth, that specific 500-person event to us is more important. As that is about people coming to see our brand.”

Eventually the idea is that we do want to do a Tamashii Nations event in the US.

I wonder if this eventually means -- while they'll still continue to have a presence at SDCC -- that Tamashii will offer their exclusives exclusively at their own event.  But more than likely they'll offer it at both/multiple events.

Hmm, that is very interesting.  Sdcc is like a general product show where many companies compete for attention.  I have sometimes wondered if it is better for a company to go to this type of large event or to do a smaller and more focused specialized event that specifically caters to their fans.  Some examples could be Star Wars Celebration, Botcon and Joecon.  Those are all brand specific shows that have smaller attendance overall when compared to SDCC, however those shows can really be good for vendors and companies that sell those brand specific products.
