A very quick photo of the 3 nearly done ones... heads aren't really pushed into place here as it's just a test fitting.

Re: Interest: 1/6 Wampa Project (Full figure or Kit) First Update
So for those who purchased a full figure... a hard decision will need to be made:
Clean Vs Weathered
In all honesty I think the clean is probably more accurate... looking at the Tippet puppet as it's seen on screen and how polar bears look in the wild they're pretty clean. But, it also kind of feels right to have him slightly dirtied-up.

I’ll take a clean one and if I decide later that he’s too bright then I’d dirty him up myself.

That’s a definite option. It’s not hard to do... just have to be careful not to pull out any of the individually applied pieces of hair. But they’re pretty resilient.
To save you some time, I prefer the clean version please. Thanks again. I look forward to having it in my collection.

Incredible work! The weathered version looks very nice, but maybe not screen accurate.
Polar bears do have some yellow-ish brown in their coats, but that may also be a time-of-year thing.

These turned out amazing, great work!
Looking forward to seeing these in collections, hopefully in some snow or cave dioramas.
You could take some great cinematic shots with these.

Thanks everyone!
I figure on the weathering it really is just a personal preference. I'm happy to do it either way and it's also not hard to do on your own.
It seems like on-screen in the OT the Wampa (what you saw of him) was pretty clean. But in photos he's always a little bit dirty and they really dirtied him up for the SE version.

This is awesome! How the hell did I miss this ?

Looks absolutely amazing Man!!! SS and HT could definitely learn a thing or two.
Wish I didn't have so much crap going on when the project started to have to miss out. I'm definitely gonna be on board for the 2nd production run, variants and eventual 1/4 scale version.

Nice to see this progressing. While I think the weathered looks cooler in many respects, I'll stick with the clean version.

I just checked down in the basement and the yellow is definitely part of the fur, not dirty. Been there since at least last summer.

The finished figures look spectacular, I'm sure their owners will be thrilled.
I have to find some time (and a 1/4 body) to get the ball rolling on mine - the parts are just sitting waiting - kept company by a lot of other parts for customs to be assembled.
