NOPE. Can't let that one go, Pixel, even if it's off-topic for the thread. Charicature?! Listen, I got Inigo's sculpt too and I like it ok (using it for Hoth Han) but it does not hold up to scrutiny. I know you spent a lot of time defending it and I was with you that it was better than the HT, but Jnix is better. Love Inigo and he does great stuff but this was not his best.

I can't help but think the sculpt on the left looks like the Patrick Swazye

To be fair - it looks better in hand. But it's a little "generic"-looking.

Too funny! But there's also PLENTY of condescension, as is Par for this particular course...always.

Condescension/rudeness is a weak person's imitation of strength.

I can't decide if I should cave and get Leia now or wait until I see how the new dress comes out. Wish I knew how close to selling out she is.

I think she has free shipping and the $25 coupons work on her right now. Pretty good deal from SS direct.

Yeah I have her sitting in my cart as I keep trying to decide. I figured at $189 double boxed from SS I should go for it.

I would. Depending on how much a custom dress is, all said and done it could turn out to be about the retail price for a regular figure in the end and you'll have a customized dress on it.

None of those custom sculpts are good enough for me to want to spend more cash on an already expensive figure to replace the stock Han sculpt.

What $25 code?

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

just google sideshowtoy and the first "ad" link for Sideshow that pops up gives you a $25 code.

I caved and got her. I don't want to regret it later. The code l used just randomly popped up while visiting the site.

Anyway, it's a caricature and I'm just not interested in caricature sculpts on my figures. A lot of those around FB lately.

Hmmm... I'm going to respectfully disagree. Let's do a little comparison to see which sculpt is actually based on a caricature:

Ok! I'm sorry I said anything! Back to Leia...can't tell me THIS sculpt doesn't look good!

Hot Toy's Leia is their best OT sculpt so far.

Luke(s), Ben and Han were definite "close but no cigars". Chewy needed some futzing...

I honestly wouldn't have thought that was a figure if I didn't see the wrist joints. In fact, at first glance, I actually did think it was a black and white of Fisher.

See to me that looks about as inaccurate as the Han Solo sculpt, based on that photo.
