Fur to hide joints

Epic!!! If only they would do this....the polystone in my humble opinion is the worst medium for these creature...no articulation kills it for me.

I feel pretty confident that if the Chewbacca PF (which is not intended to move or articulate) is fully sculpted, than that will be the case for the TaunTaun... it's not ideal, but it's what I'm expecting to see.

whatever it ends up being, i just really want to see a pic of it already.

The photo of Han on the Tauntaun, behind the Luke photo, leads me to think there'll be another one of these too.

Looks like it has a neck seam.

Beautiful. And I guess that answers the fur/no fur question.

Looks absolutely stunning... I was trying to convince myself this would be a pass; but I already feel my will to resist crumbling

With this and the new ED-209 I'll eventually have a little "Tippett Workshop" in my office.

Agreed. It's just another non-articulated polystone statue like the Dewback. Question is, will they also be making Han's ride and if so will it come with guts?

$259 for this? Maybe more? Looks brilliant so far.

Yep! This means HOTH figures are finally coming!

I hope this is of the same quality as the dewback.

The Taun Taun looks wicked awesome!
I just hope they can improve the Luke and Han sculpts.

Anyone else expecting a Q4 2014 release at the earliest? I can't see them releasing this without a Hoth Luke to sit on it. Have any sneak peek pics ever come around of that?
