If you buy your doll a new dress you'll have to buy one for the wife too, otherwise she'll get jealous of the 'other woman'. :lol

Hi guys - a quick heads-up for any UK collectors still on the fence about Leia - Kapow toys have her on sale for £165, so almost a sensible price! No way was I going to shell out £200 but when I stumbled across this I took the plunge. Looking forward to getting her on the shelf this afternoon...

It's a weird hobby that we're all involved in....

Got Leia a couple of days ago. I think she is really well made. The only off thing is the dress but that does not bother me too much.

Speaking of getting a new dress for my doll; does anyone know of a dress that would make a good substitute for this look?:

Yeah, dress could be a lot better. I still have mine displayed though with the rest of my ANH line and it looks great.

That's an awesome effect, QuiGon! Can you hook up my photo from post #3736?

Well... so there is "hope".

That's good because ShortRound has not responded on whether Yunsil would be willing to tackle this. I think he's busy with several other projects right now.

Interest thread went up a few minutes ago, so we may be in luck.

Worked on Leia. Removed wires from hood. Put them in the bottom hems of the dress. Removed underskirt. Cut all the inside seams as close as I dared. Lots of water treatment and futzing. Used double sided tape. Added beauty marks and other minor details to face.

Stunning mods & futzing. If I can find her on sale anywhere, this just convinced me to get her.
