A New Hope Han!!!!

Now this is the way they are meant to be.

Holy crap Luke has a huge head!!



Man, that sculpt was (and is) amazing.

 

[JustinLuck]

LOL, yep, I had to scale their heads to match their huge hands.

Yeah, you gotta love them huge hands.

Luke's sleeves on his jackett look loosened in that pic,which make his hands look a little smaller,but SS still needs to size them meat beaters down a size or two.

The size of Sideshow hands never bothered me. What I hate is when the wrist joints show.

SS should use the shaft inside the arm technique that Medicom and HT uses.

Does anyone know were the Buck body SS is using came from?Is it there own body or did they get it from another source,like Hasbro or something?

I'm pretty sure that in the current collaborative efforts, future SSC bodies will adapt the HT wrist and foot joint as the Frodo and Sam child body shows. Hopefully it's a little sturdier than HT's current design though, as Sideshow offeres more hand options with figures than HT, I'd like to know I won't have to worry about breakage much.

The question was,were does the current buck body come from?

And yeah,but SS may just be making up for not addopting the better design with the having so many hand options.

I assume Sideshow developed it, as it has their copyright on it, although they could have bought the rights to it from someone else. In any case, I can't believe you'd think that Hasbro would ever have come up with anything like it. You have seen the Hasbro bodies, yes?

No, I have not seen the figure's fully unclothed,but I did own quite a few of them 5 or 6 years ago,when I just got into collecting.

I don't like SS's or Hasbro as designs.Their poses don't look natural,specially Hasbro's,and look more like toys then as SS would say about their figure's,
"A museum quality collectible".

But that wouldn't fix everything else wrong with the body. They'll be making a whole new body or at least a variation on the Hot Toys body, if the hobbits are to judge.

I have seen other figures made by, I believe, Majestic, use a body very close to the SS bodies. I think that Sideshow does own these because if you go the Art S. Buck page, all the way at the bottom. There is a 1000 piece limit. Maybe companies like Majestic buy the bodies from SS? I'm ramblin.....

The Majestic body isn't the same as the Buck - that is Sideshow's proprietary body. There is a generic body that seems to come on a lot of the Asian low run custom figures and it is similar to the Buck.

Oh Ok. Thanks for clearing that up I thought they were the same.

I'm as anxious to see new pics of the prototype as I am for the PPO itself.

Makes 2 of us Carl.

 

[Cowboy]

How many of you guys already have the first Han? And your going to get this one too? What are you going to do with the first one?? I have the first one and trying to debate getting this one! That first one really has the bobble going on.

 

[MaulFan]

I'm confident in the quality of this figure, the rest of the images will just be a treat, but my concerns are.

What's the exclusive?

Is my exclusive order in?

When's it shipping?

Going to be an awesome figure.
