I see a lot of ANH (HATE that quantifier) shots, particularly with the Stormtrooper rifle, he's holding it in his left hand. Upon further review, you can find both weapons in either hand. I figured that was the logic behind no right trigger hand. Oh, well.

One of my twin boys is lefty. Writes left, but throws and hits righty. Interesting. I'm righty and can't do squat left handed.:lol

I am also like your son... I use my left for precise movement stuff (writing, scissors, even shooting firearms), but I'm right handed for most other stuff (almost all sports, for example). Actually, if I was Luke myself, that's exactly what I would be doing... using the gun in my left, and lightsaber in my right...
 
I finally set this guy up last night in my detolf, I had my 7 year old son help out. He was so excited to help, he never had any interest in any of these and has walked past the detolf so many times. Once he saw the lightsaber light up he was stoked. He wanted to know what else I had and ran to the detolf and started asking what else do you have??? Can I hold this one and that one! What an amazing bonding moment.

Actually, I would consider that an amazing moment to parent... "NO, you cannot touch these. These belong to Daddy. NO".
 
The stormtrooper belt doesn't go over Luke's leather belt - did it go over it in the movie? If not, what did he do with it while he was wearing the stormtrooper belt?
 
Second Hot Toys figure after Han and I'm officially hooked. Now have numerous figures on preorder from OT & TFA. Very impressed with Luke, paint app and costume detailing (although a simple looking outfit) is finely done. The lightsabre is a little gem, far brighter even in daylight than I would of imagined. Now I just need to track down Chewie, OT Stormtrooper & Obi wan to catch up.

Awesome! :clap

My son hit his teens not too long ago and our 1/6 conversations go something like this:

Me: Come into my office. (home office / collectibles room)
He: You got a new figure in?
Me: Yes.
He: Which one?
Me: Come and see.
He walks in and spots the new figure(s).
He: Cool. When is it going in my room?... (he's got a pair of detolfs with Star Wars figs)
 
R2 is a stand in until R5 ships. :D

Got my Luke set up tonight. No, it's not a great Mark Hamill likeness...but I still like the figure a lot.
