A New Hope Han!!!!

[Captain Faramir]

LOL! Awful!

Oh you're so silly! lol

I think it looks really good, but now I have trauma of choosing between Bespin Han, who has my favorite outfit (that was one awesome jacket) and this one, which is the more iconic of the two. I might just go with a purely ANH display, since it would be the most ideal and everybody would know who all the characters are. That would be great--except that I already have two Lukes, and neither of them is from ANH--this after swearing in blood that I wouldn't repeat characters! What to do?!?!?

You must do what you feel is right, of course.

This is one figure where I'm kind of lost wondering what the exclusive could be. The medal isn't exclusive because Luke has one, and frankly I'll be shocked if they ever go back on their no-repeats rule--which would also leave out the stormtrooper rifle and belt. Now if they added an exclusive shirt with the medal that would work I guess, ala LOTR cloaks--though that would be a bit more work on their part. It could work though, but the stormtrooper belts couldn't because eventually they would have to be repeated.

Now, if Sideshow follows past traditions and statements it'll be something not essential to the character nor a part of his regular or standard equipment. The gloves, thus, are a great idea, but they are a part of his costume and they should be regular--just like his belt is or his boots are. Yeah he doesn't wear them all the time, but I always felt Bespin Han needed a few more hand options, and this is a good way to get them in. The headset is an interesting idea, but putting aside the complications of getting that to work on a big head with plastic hair, it's still a part of his gear, so technically it would still not work. So what else is there? His drink from the Cantina? the coin he tosses there? Maybe he'll come with an exclusive, uh, Corellian, um, wall plaque?

Sideshow likes severed heads. How about Greedo's severed head as the exclusive? So it's not canon - maybe the bartender had to chop him up to dispose of the body...

It's Harrison to be sure but looks kinda like it belongs in the Tonner line.

Haha, there's actually a story in the EU where they used Greedo's body to make some kinda drink or something. So in the EU he was chopped up.

 

[dharper]

The exclusive could be the metal pole he tries to brace the trash compactor with. But does anyone really want that? I'm betting gloved hands.

I need to see the unpainted sculpt before I decide.

Actualy, if you read the novels, In the tales from the cantina series, Whur HATED Greedo, so he had his head stuffed and mounted on the cantina wall.

That's awesome.

I like this one of him:

Nice pic of the Medi-Han there Justin

 

[abstractharmony]

Can't be bothered to look through 22 pages of moans (probably...) but here's my thought :-

I LOVE IT!

(with a caveat about the thickness of the undershirt material)

Exclusive?...Chewie?

 

[abstractharmony]

ANH Luke with exclusive being the snow jacket & boots.

Actually, I'd really like a nice minor Jedi figure again as the next PPO. Someone like Agen Kolar.

 

[Mooncat]

Much sooner have seen a character not done before by sideshow.

 

[Prime Clone]

Yippeee!!

It's probably already been mentioned, but Tatooine Luke can't be far behind. (Sorry to those who are all Luked out)

 

[MaulFan]

I just thought of the most badass exclusive they could give, but also most expensive that will never happen; ANH SE Edition Jabba the Hutt I'm sure most of you could care less about that one for a multitude of reasons, some of which I'd agree with, but I love the fat guy

 

[KitFisto]

I think if the eyes were painted better you would see the sculpt really come to life. When I first saw it I thought (That's not Ford), but the more I look at it, the more I think it's the way the eyes are painted. The sculpt looks pretty good, but the eyes are off.

Maybe they could make him inflatable to cut costs (and fit him in the box!)

so you'rre saying you want the exclusive to be a blow up jabba doll? well it could double as a flotation device.
