My R2 just sprang a DROID-boner when he saw this picture! C3PO is NOT amused...

This figure gets better and better with each picture.

I thought the Avengers Black widows was good but this beats all!

Yeah? I saw a few pictures of her, but didn't look that closely. The rest of the figure is excellent as well.

Oh my god. They could shrink fisher down to 10 inches and lock her in a box and you'd all say it looks nothing like her.

Seeing this in person the likeness is probably the best of all the HT Star Wars. The dress is layered and translucent in places just like the original costume.

The stand around her waist can't be helping the way it hangs.

I love it. I was nervous for this one but after seeing the pics I am really satisfied.

My favorite female sculpt yet.

Like many have mentioned, the life in the eyes is fantastic. Especially compared to the Agent Hill figure that was just revealed. It's a pretty good sculpt, but has that million mile stare that, until Leia, they could never really shake.

Oh come on Dave, that old chestnut? That statement needs it's own ZOMG thread.

But I agree - it looks excellent to my eyes as well.

It almost assuredly won't.

Nah, HT do alright - it's when the sculpts are iffy to begin with that they struggle to please.

I think you really mean SSC.

Looks good to me although not crazy about the dress material. Doesn't hang.

For figures like this that have a dress or robe that needs to hang with 1/6th gravity, I always thought it would be a good idea for the maker to use a system of tiny hidden weights. Tiny short sections of steel rod perhaps, painted the same color as the fabric, and sewn into small tube-shaped pleats inside the sleeve. The cloth tubes would run along the inside seamline at the bottom of the sleeve, and pull the sleeve down with gravity. This would also work for Jedi robe hoods, capes, etc...

Absolutely beautiful. To my own surprise, she's now one of my most anticipated figures. Best female sculpt so far, no doubt.

These SDCC shots are looking better. It's like a lot of their stuff....great...from a certain point of view.

Jedibear, you're going to find that many of the truths we cling to (here at Freaks) depend greatly upon our own point of view...

re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure

Now that is absolutely perfect. My initial reaction was disappointment, the very first pic that was posted wasn't very flattering. But this...

Just so long as he doesn't drop his load at the first sight of an imperial cruiser...

Oh come on Dave, that old chestnut? That statement needs it's own ZOMG thread.

It really does. I've seen it a few times in this thread alone.

Personally I think this is the best head sculpt in the HT Star Wars line by far.

The Mezco One 12 Batman figure uses a really innovative design where there is rubber sections screened on to the bottom pleats of the cape. Gives it weight and helps create natural folds. Not saying Hot Toys should do this exactly, but something like it would bring their capes and robes to the next level.
