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

[The Green Goblin]

I think what I meant is that the outfit combined with the articulation isn't a struggle to get looking good with Han as the outfit is pretty solid and tight fighting. Luke's tunic can be a struggle to look nice. The elbow articulation is certainly better on Luke as it's double-jointed. Han's head has better articulation despite them both having solid chest/necks.

Oh yeah, that's true. Luke's shirt does like to fight back and make things look unnatural.

I can't wait until public opinion once again swings back in favor of this figure. And it will, upon the next release of a young Luke (ESB) most likely.

I like Kenobi a lot too. Stunning likeness.

It's grown on me, but "stunning likeness" might be taking things a bit too far.

With hood up, in the Ben robes, lightsaber in hand, in an iconic ANH pose, it's unmistakably Kenobi - let's leave it at that.

Very nice likeness! Better than HT,that's for sure. But I have to say, the eyes look a bit too large.

 

[Rafael Arenov]

Can that be used for the SS X Wing Luke?

 

[SilverStar17]

Which sculpt is that?

Jnix sculpt painted by SilentSurfer...



With HT sculpt at the end for comparison.

The likeness on that Jnix one is remarkable. Don't care much for the expression though, even though it matches that expression Hamill has in the comparison photo. He looks surprised.

 

[QuiGonFishing]

I don't think the surprise will be too overpowering if you pose him right, and we should keep in mind that the exaggerations highlighted by these extreme close ups should be (hopefully) significantly muted at 1/6 scale.

Yeah, love how the sculpt and the Silentsurfer paint is working together there. Though that Silentsurfer paint-up has to be easily in the $200+ range for paint alone, making it likely a $300+ head.

But the expression does look a bit odd, and the eyes seem a bit too big - or something. The eyes look better in those pics than I've seen before - I think they were decals in the other paint-ups I've seen and the irises were a bit too small on the decals, making the big eyes look even more odd.

It's a nice sculpt but not sure it's as big of a leap forward as the HT Han to Jnix Han sculpt was, possibly because - Tom Cruise-isms aside - the HT Luke always had a bit more luke likeness (to me at least) than the HT Han did, despite the copper helmet hair.

One thing Jnix nailed on Han was a HF expression, whereas the Luke doesn't quite work as well, though it's still nice.

My sentiments as well.

The likeness is remarkable, just the expression seems a little off to me. As mentioned, almost like he's surprised or something. The likeness on the Jnix sculpt is better than the stock HT sculpt, but I do prefer the expression of the HT sculpt. The look of the HT sculpt sort of reminds me of this particular scene for some reason:

Perhaps it's the style of the hair and because his eyes don't seem to be as round.

For me though personally, it's the other way around. While the HT Luke sculpt is decent, I think the Jnix one bears a better likeness, odd expression aside. As far as Han Solo, I think the stock HT sculpt is actually phenomenal, despite how maligned it seems to be.

Used the $50 off from sideshow on this. Hard to pass.

Here is a shot a friend took of his Jnix painted version that arrived today.

Personally, I can't wait for mine to arrive as I think this thing is jaw-dropping!!!! The skin texture, the way the light bounces off it - his head looks like a screen shot!
