1/6 Hot Toys - Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back - Chewbacca

[Cagoda]

Wish for a Jabba during ROTJ anniversary year, get only like 2 ROTJ figures.

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

I definitely don’t like seeing that horrid diamond base here either. It better not come with that!

 

[xipotec]

They never did do a Han Bespin headsculpt though (it was just the pedo-smirk Solo stormie head in the Leia pics) - you could argue that getting one-off Bespin jacket/pants done by their tailoring team wouldn't have been a huge deal.

The fact there's finally a new Han coming really does make that whole Han Bespin tease (SIX years ago...) a strange one. Not to mention said new Han looking a little on the funky side with that super-wrinkly forehead.

HT is weird though - if you were Howard and were free to do a new Han after all these years (as Howard is now proven to be,) you'd think all-new ANH smuggler (maybe with cantina table/seats,) Han Hoth or Han Bespin with classic Han expression. Not a niche/scene-specific and slightly weird expression on a trenchcoat Han.

But... HT is weird. Wish for a Han Bespin, get a gonk droid. Wish for classic ANH Tusken, get fugly Mando Tusken - ditto the Dewback and Biker Scout, just with some OT tweaks.

All the usual HT apologists all over that Han.....

Terrible expression , total quirky weirdo scene...
With hundreds of stills from iconic moments? We get that.

Glad to see 3PO isn’t permanently affixed to Chewy. I’ll be buying.

 

[Buttmunch]

Easily the best Chewie we’ve gotten yet. Gives me hope they’ll visit Black Krrrsantan to go with Aphra’s droids and Boba Fett. Price is really good considering what Artisan figures go for and this is that kicked up to 11. Plus half a 3PO figure.

 

[SOU7567]

Looks amazing and such an improvement over the photos we’ve seen at a few of the events the last month.

 

[Spanbauer]

Damn that’s a good-lookin’ wookie.

 

[Centrocal]

So only the head has wool hair?

I found this photo with this Leia a bit interesting, even though I know it doesn’t officially mean anything….

 

[pixletwin]

Ok I’m slowly starting to change my mind on this… possibly.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

Outstanding! That looks sooo good! And a new Cloud City Leia on the way too.

 

[Scout Trooper]

I hate that they're locking it with 3PO. I'd rather have a more affordable option.

What are we looking at here? $450?

 

[Brokenhandpuppet]

Agreed.

It's on sideshow for $430.

 

[davejames]

Wow he looks fantastic. A little bummed they got rid of that base with the stairs in back. This new one looks WAY too small for him.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I was hoping an option without 3PO would be offered. I was gonna get a few but gotta rethink that now.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Very excited about this...
