Comatoast, great pic.... can you explain how you did the mod? is it "doable"?

Very doable - I'll post some pics in a bit.

Great composition in that shot Comatoast. Bravo

It just involves cutting away a little of the hump/shoulder area behind the head peg. Obviously, the more you cut the farther back you can go. It doesn't affect the way the clothes sit at all. I had an idea to do this almost as soon as I got it out, but i have to credit Cocoboloboy with doing it first.

Thanks guys! I love this guy. My one complaint is that the cane seem too short (and no orange snake of course)

Great use of the lighting for both Yoda and Ben.

Ummm I need to see more pics like that ASAP. It looks great! Excellent use of warm and cool colors especially making Ben look like Force ghost! 

Comatoast that is a great mod! I was running into that same issue with the head articulation! Love your pics always

I saw this on eBay. I bet the black areas could be removed. Not my auction, BTW.

This one's close enough...

Excellent mod...

I don't understand the hesitancy on this figure - I think it's great. Perfect? No, point to a HT SW fig that is though. I modded the hump/neck area to allow him to move his head back more - he was looking up in more scenes than not - they should have allowed for more movement. I like the closed eyes sculpt but I think the open is great too.

Here's a force ghost Ben...

Finally got mine from my local store in Canada. I think I have version 1. I might light wash the puppy nose as it's a bit too dark in person. I do see that there is a bit too much muddy red/brown in the creases of his head. Not too big of a deal for me though.

Hot Toys Shanghai store has a great life-size Yoda on display ! Was there this week. Great store !

The closed eye HS might be one of my favorite HT's sculpts ever! It is so good. Everytime I pose and re-pose this figure I smile. To me that's what this hobby is all about...

That's from Sideshow, get out of the figure section once in a while.

Sure, didn't say it was a HT figure, just at the HT store. I think Sideshow and HT work together..........;-)

Ok, after looking at these pics Hoody, the pic you posted in the Leia thread makes more sense now as far as the display cabinet. I wish we had stores like that around where I live.

Yes, it's a very cool shop. There were a couple of people walking into the shop and they were saying "oh my god this is so amazing" !!

I bought a couple of figures, and one chinese girl wanted a photo taken with me. Said I was "So Cool" Maybe it was just because i'm pretty tall. Either way it was a pretty amazing shop experience

Maybe I am just cool ;-) who knows

 

[TonTon]

You're cool! Chinese girls are never wrong.
