What do you think is the better Leia sculpt between this and the ANH premium format figure?

Looking at pictures of the Leia PF on google, I'd have to say that the Hot Toys Leia has a more accurate head sculpt.

Yeah the Leia PF does still look really nice, but I think the HT sculpt outdoes it by quite a bit.

Hopefully you just mean the outfit is pretty boring, because the sculpt is amazing. If you think the likeness is actually weak, it might not matter what other Leia's come out because odds are you'll be disappointed. They even got the hair color right, one thing they didn't get on Han and Luke, or Chewie.

I was just referring overall. Yes i like the sculpt but i feel like outfit and whats included is just light. Wish they included an additional head or something else to make it really stand out.

Death Star plans and binders would've been nice, so SS's Leia has some redeeming use after all

The standard HT release nowadays is usually light. it's just the way it has gone....

If you're talking about monthly coupon codes, then it's all about code eligibility, which is based on the product release date. Coupon codes almost always apply to anything released prior to the first of the previous month.

I'm not sure I agree with that. There are some that have less included but there are just as many with lots of stuff. Electro has two heads and two full hand sets. Tasm2 spidey has a bunch of stuff. Cap has two heads, an extra helmet shield, and more. Mk43 has a fair amount. Arkham Bats has a fair bit of gadgets. Armory bats, well has a boat load. Vision and Thor have extras. I think they do a decent job balancing cost and add ons.

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

Eh, I think they included everything the character really needs to have. I don't see the point in including a whole bunch of extra stuff... just for the sake of having extra stuff. Especially since most people are probably like me and never do anything with all those extra accessories anyway.

And I can't think of any alternate head or expression that would look better than the one they chose.

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

Leia doesn't have a lot of accessories in ANH, besides the two guns that are already included with the figure. I can't really think of anything else I would have wanted to be included.

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

The two guns are about all you need, anyway.

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

The Han, Chewie, and Obi-Wan figures hardly come with any accessories either, so it's not like Leia stands out in that department. And the characters never had much extra gear in any of the movies either (it was usually only Luke that had a bunch of extra fun stuff to play with).

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

Yup! No complaints from me.

I think they are including the extra cool bigger stand as an accessory. If you had a standard hot toys stand they may have included more accessories or been a slightly lower price.

If we collect 600,000 of these stands and add a few million $$, we can build a scale Death Star.

I'm in. I would gladly contribute at least $5 to that.
