ANH Han Solo - Official picture thread

[abake]

Hey, I'm not trying to fan the flames, it's just a simple mathematical question.
The fact is each company uses a different base body, so the scales look off when put side by side.
We've always known that, nothing new there.

So DAVID PROWSE is average size?

Dude, the medi vader is taller than the standard medi.

Which ever one is "true" 1:6 doesn't matter. What is the industry standard? Companies like Sideshow and HT and just about every other 1:6 company all follow the same standard. Its only medicom who falls short of that standard (pun sort of, innocently intended).

It's not really a standard, it's more of a loosely accepted convention.

 

[EVILFACE]

Scale or not, SS needs to make a Han with the correct hair color!!

That's not true.

Sideshow's are taller than all the rest.

But whatever. You like what you like. I like what I like.

And, yes, the hair is not correct.

Really, this is not the disaster everyone is making it out to be.

It turned out (IMO) 100% just like the proto. (which is why I canceled mine months ago) I am getting a regular for cheaper and getting that head painted the right color and hopefully on a new HT body.

 

[The Ringer]

Even the SS pics look good.

 

[Prime Clone]

Actually I reckon it's better than the proto, which I was hoping for. After Bespin Luke and Old Ben I knew it was possible.

 

[JustinLuck]

Regardless of criticism, it is still the best rendition of Han Solo. Medicom's doesn't even resemble Ford.

That'll cost you about as much, if not more than a Medicom figure.

So? It'll be the figure he wants.

 

[RevRanger]

Set a standard sideshow figure next to a standard dragon figure. Or a standard medicom. Or a standard Hot Toys. Which is taller?

Sideshow's are taller. ALL THE TIME. Big deal though. So what. Just don't say Medi's are way under scale, cause they're not.

Now, which figures are the ugliest? Out of the ones above? Who has GIANT banana-grabbing MONKEY ARMS? ZOMBIE GOLF BALL EYES? GIANT MELON HEADS? Guys wearing LIPSTICK? Extra-large PADDLE BOAT HANDS? 500 no-speaking role Jedis in the line-up and no Chewbacca or friggin' Stormtroopers?

Sideshow needs to step it up already.

Just saying

 

[pixletwin]

True. But on the whole I prefer the SS headsculpt and leather belt. I also think noone does hands and guns better than sideshow (well HT maybe better with guns).

I am afraid you just lost all credibility here.
