Custom by YunSil and Robbie the Painter on the gunbelt
Thanks! It's definitely not the best pic by any means and not showing the sculpt in the best way possible at allCongrats on the new sculpt, Gipetto!And thanks for the comparison.
I feel like the Jnix basically captures Ford pulling one of these expressions, which seemed common in ANH but isn't really Ford's neutral or resting face.

And I think that's a great assessment of the Jnix sculpt actually that I don't think anyone else has made before. Having both in hand, although I see more of typical Ford in Waruna's sculpt, there is something I love about the Jnix sculpt that I can't quite put my finger on. When it's on the figure, it just screams ANH Han to me where as the Waruna one I think can go for any of his looks in the trilogy depending on how it's painted.

I actually prefer the Waruna over Jnix. After seeing the render I sold off my Jnix. It definitely has a stronger likeness, but I think Warunas paint still needs work. Mine was supposed to be color matched to the ANH Solo body but I think he matched it to the Young Solo which has a more pinkish hue than tan. So I will either need to get the sculpt repainted or find a Young Solo Body again to put it on.
i dont know if you like zctoys body but their S002 body has reddish tone like asian body and has long ankle slot. cheapest in town. claims to have thinner thigh than their 001.
S005 is asian body with narrower upper body and normal ankle slots. upper body is 1 piece. same colortone as s002.

I'm not familiar with that brand. I'll have to look into it. Thanks!
A very light wash will change that neck color -- little brown/red acrylic heavily watered down and brushed lightly onto the neck and upper chest area.

Does anyone know how well the MMS374 Han boots fit the MMS 261? I was thinking of buying a pair and painting them black. Are they real leather?
None of the HT boots are real leather. As for fit, they should fit fine as they use a standard ball joint. If you need replacements though, better ones to use would be the Grand Inquisitor boots or just wait for the ROTJ Han boots

I know this must have been addressed a thousand times in this thread, but it’s hard to navigate. What’s the best procedure to bring back the shirt to the original whiteness? Also, is it hard to undress the figure? Never really attempted that.

Not hard to take the shirt off. Pop off the head. The shirt has a Velcro closure in the back that makes it a bit easier to take off.
The harder part will be getting the figure dressed again. Just be careful tucking the shirt back into his pants, I would use a Q-tip.
I went back to my posts in the thread to remember what I did to fix mine. That adventure starts here
What's weird is that in 2022, I said I used watered-down bleach (which didn't work), then in 2023 I told someone else to not use watered-down bleach (as though I didn't already try that the previous year). Getting old sucks.
It's also recommended to use oxygen-based bleach, not chlorine-based bleach.
Ultimately, here's what I did to fix it.
Just know that the shirt should be white, it does have a tint of yellow to it, more of an off-white. So, if "original whiteness" is your goal, you'll go too far.
Be prepared for the belt to fall apart on your pants if you're undressing the figure.
Decided to mod those seamless Worldbox arms for my ANH Solo figure. They were a bit long just plugged into the figure and didn't like how the elbow area looked like that either. Took a cue from InArt Joker and made the hands attach with magnets.
