So I received Stardust today. To be honest, I don't really have anything bad to say about this figure. All of my quibbles are really just extremely minor nit picks, such as I think the scarf could be a bit thinner around her neck and the vest could stand to be a bit longer. All in all though, I think it's a strong effort by HT. The belt is able to be removed with ease for adjusting, being that it attaches by Velcro; however, I got the impression that taking it on and off is not something you'd want to do over and over, lest the Velcro will start to fray and not be as adhesive. The sculpt I would give a solid 9, which I feel is comparable to the ANH Leia sculpt. They've done a good job overall on the R1 figures.

I'm on the fence with this one and still can't see a Felicity likeness; I think her face is more round than oval HS we received, and it may have done better with a less vertical part of her hair. A more accurate part may have done it for me...maybe there's a reason why HT couldn't pull it off. The height and amount of hair is also an issue.
 
^Glad it's not just me who's not seeing much of a likeness. I'm still holding onto my order, but the awesome outfit (and all her varied looks) continues to be a bigger selling point than the headsculpt, and I'm crossing my fingers that someone will create a better custom sculpt later on.
 
Yeah, no regrets cancelling my order, but the outfit and the tailoring are really stellar. If the character did a bit more for me I may still have been inclined to pick her up. I think Krennic is probably my most sought after human from Rogue One.

Still thinking of using the saved $$ toward K-2 as a standalone, he seems to be sticking around so maybe I'll snag it if they ever offer free shipping or use points if it seems to be getting close to selling out.
 
I don't think you'd be unhappy with K-2; I have him and would like to add a companion character but haven't pulled the trigger on any other RO figures. I'm thinking on ordering Chirrut from Forbidden Planet but he and K2 didn't really interact in the movie...at least that I can recall.
 
Well I was supposed to get this today but UPS deceived not to drop it off, even though I released the package to be left without a signature.

I really hate it when they do that. I have the hardest time getting them to leave packages on my door. My neighborhood is very safe and I have security cameras so I’m not terribly worried about it being stolen.
 
I ALWAYS arrange to pick up the package at a UPS location...very easy to do once you start an account and you don't have to rely on a delivery guy/gal.
 
Luckily, I was home at the moment UPS dropped off Stardust yesterday. For the past few months, it's been the same driver that's dropped off my figures. He finally asked what all this stuff was (being that it's always a HT shipper box) and I invited him in for a moment to see what he's been dropping off and showed him my collection, to which he was in awe of. He even asked me where I get all of these at. :lol

I'd have loved to see his face. [emoji16]

Meanwhile, on SilverStar's home security cameras...

It's pretty impressive how HT got the details of the outfit and gear right given the scale. Great comparison shots !

It really is. The tailoring on this figure is pretty impressive. As I mentioned, a few nits regarding it, but they are extremely minor and if you let them bother you, then in my opinion you're just searching for reasons not to like the figure.

I posed her with my ANH figures because I don't have any other R1 figures, so that's the only group she really fits in with, and she looks undersized.

:rotfl:rotfl:rotfl

Great comeback ! :clap

She is a very short woman. Next to Harrison Ford, for instance. And she's not wearing heeled boots.

How does she look next to Leia?
