Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure
The top one exemplifies what I don't like in the figure but the other two are good, especially the bottom one. Now only if I could afford Jazz's awesome Death Star backdrop.
You guys are crazy.
Still can't wait, but I admit as iconic as this version is, the outfit is still kinda boring. It would have helped if they'd nailed it, but everything that's been said about it is pretty true. I still think she'll look pretty good on the shelf, but perhaps something more interesting than a museum pose will be needed for her to take away from the outfit's shortcomings.
My current plan is to pair her up with Vader/Droid or Luke Stormtrooper (I took farmboy Luke down from display) and see what works best. Maybe I'll sell her off when a Hoth version comes out but I'll be happy to have her in the meantime.
Ren is an awesome figure, but with a painted headsculpt you're talking a $375 figure.
Here are a few pics from the bloggers we've all seen to remind myself what I'm getting.
