1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars Episode VII: Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure

[Cap'n Cook]

A big to those uptight about the sculpt. Relax, there will be another Luke with another head to complain about, likely more than one version of Luke, and that figure will actually have accessories and be able to do more than hold a robo hand in the air.

Anyone have an idea when Luke will go up for pre-order based on past SDCC experiences?

It's completely random.

See, Ripley.

I dunno how anyone is defending this piece of ****! It's likeness to Mark Hamill is just non existent! I think this is one of their worst head sculpts to date, unless Jeff Bridges now plays Luke Skywalker!

There's some of that nerd hyperbole I have come to expect in these threads.

I'm not overly fond of the sculpt. I really have to concentrate in order to see Mark Hamill in it. From some angles it more resembles Tom Cruise, IMO. I like the outfit though and the accessories are great. The prototype was really good. I don't know if it's the different paint app or if they changed the sculpt on the production pieces. I put the goggles on mine, they help reduce the conehead effect somewhat.

^^wrong thread. I should know, I just did something similar with Han.

It's those darned roman numerals!

Oops! Too quick, too tired. Apologies.

 

[SilverStar17]

IV and VII do look similar when you're tired I suppose.

Great pic regardless.

Adjusted so it conforms to thread comments on the VII Luke.

Have you done any of your own paintwork on him? He looks pretty good? (Off topic i know,wrong thread...)

 

[Robban]

No modifications whatsoever. It's all in the lighting, I guess?

Looks good!

So we all agree sculpts are subjective, yes?

Then, just to throw it out there, does anyone take issue with the JNIX Han sculpt?

Personally, I think it's remarkable - and undeniably Han Solo ANH.

 

[xipotec]

I like IV sculpt more than VII.....

And I was not that fond of IV......

 

[SilverStar17]

I think the actual facial likeness of the VII sculpt is better than the IV sculpt, but the IV sculpt at the moment is better by virtue of the prototype VII sculpt looking airbrushed and lacking any sort of detail.
