1/6 Hot Toys - MMS297 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure

Another new country...

This isn't what George Lucas meant when he tried to make Luke Skywalker a character which embodied Joseph Campbell's "hero's Journey"
The chart needs to look like this...

I reckon our two Lukes are side by side in the plane drinking beers on their magical, mystical tour of Asia. These figures will have clocked up more milage than my car by the time they arrive.

I searched for UPS flights out of Incheon, and the only one I could see was headed for Anchorage, where Ebenezeer Jones said his ended up.

Are they really coming here the wrong way round?

I think he's definitely in the 'Special World' at the moment.

Still with you Kuat, wonder will mine go to the UK with yours or come direct to Ireland?

Kuat your figures journey reminds me of this kids quiz show, skip to near 2 minutes in.

After that strange initial journey it's hard to believe that he's back on track for delivery tomorrow.


EDIT: He's just left Germany.

Arrived in Oz

 

[koolkollectibleskhai]

Yep, got mine too! Great timing with about 12 hours to go until I see The Force Awakens!!

Just incase anyone wanted to know I tried the Skywalker arm on my DX07 and it fits!

Sorry for the poor picture

Awesome!!!!
Did you have to mod it to get it to work??? pics of how it fits together?

This is fantastic if its easy to do, because I am not likely to pose Farmboy Luke with his lightsaber ignited anyway and my Bespin then can get an awesome upgrade!!!

 

[momaw]

Yay, my Luke arrived this morning. But damn, I wanted an OT Luke, not no stinking special edition

It was really, really easy to do mate and no mods at all. All I did was roll the sleeve up on the dx07 bend the arm to about up 90 degrees and stuck it between my index and middle finger and gave it a good pull making sure the elbow joint popped out (you might want to heat the joint up first to make it easier to remove). Then I just push the saber arm in the same as you would on Farmboy luke, rolled the sleeve down and done! Just make sure you pull the correct arm off first, I pulled the wrong one off at first and then thought hang on a minute some things not quite right!!!

I only tried this on the DX07 battle damaged figure as the cuff of the sleeve has already been widened to fit the thing you place on his arm to represent when he get his hand cut off. To do it on the clean version would probably involve modding the sleeve.

Hope this helps

Got him out of the box and got him in a quick pose. Really love this figure. So many accessories and a tonne of ways to display him.
