ANH Han Solo - Official picture thread

[Coorectghosting]

Has anyone else noticed that Han's long sleeve shirt should actually be pretty off-white and yellowish? why didn't they ever fix that

 

[JediMike71]

Yeah, I have noticed. I have thought about lightly dying mine that color in a very light wash of a yellow color paint, after I get mine. I may do that. I know Han's shirt definitely wasn't a BRIGHT pefectly clean white color!

 

[EVILFACE]

It's not a bright white in person.

 

[DarkArtist81]

Looks great... I can't wait to get mine in hand... Still odd that he is coming already and STILL no Shaun.

 

[DarthTrafford]

All these pics are great. You guys do awesome work with your camera's I'm glad I ordered this one.
:chew

Really? That's good. I had planned on dyeing mine when it gets here anyways.

 

[The Mike]

Got mine. I'm actually really happy with it. I don't love it but I don't hate it either and its leaps and bounds better than that POS that is the Han ESB.

Will post more pics later....I R Tired.

that ESP han is starting to look like a young Bela Lugosi to me.

 

[The Mike]

ESB Han is banished to the back of my shelf, unseen by average watchers. Compared to the Han I have now, the only one I hate more is Yavin Luke.

 

[The Craw]

But one thing that does bug me (and I notice in your photos) is that whoever tailors Sideshow clothes always makes the crotch inseam on the pants too low.

they do that so you can insert a 1/6 scale cucumber if you wish.

 

[jedibear]

Nice shot Mike. Looks good.

 

[Ultimate Weapon]

Excellent pictures - looking better all the time!

I'm looking forward to the arrival of my figure tomorrow.

 

[The Mike]

I'm actually waiting for bodies to be on eBay or at etailers and will replace my Han ESB with this guy wearing those clothes. Not accurate but it'll look a helleva a lot better on my shelves.

I think the figure has turned out to look just as good as the prototype honestly.

After seeing the new production shots, I think he looks better than the prototype.

I can't decide if it's in Sideshow's best interests to show us unpainted sculpts or not. Nothing I've seen in this thread comes close to what I had hoped to get, after seeing the base sculpt. But if I had only seen painted versions of this figure, I would probably be relatively happy. I'm also afraid that's what's going to happen with Indiana Jones.

 

[galactiboy]

I was gonna say you sound like a whiner, but I see you've already addressed that with your avatar message

I get mine today and so far the pictures have me pretty excited

I think its in the buyer's interest to show the unpainted sculpts. By showing the unpainted sculpt most people that have a problem with the production painted version will at least know that it can be fixed with a repaint and not a re-sculpt.

Plus, most often, the raw sculpt images are shot in lighting that conveys the forms and likeness, something often lost in official product images. I'd have had strong reservations about this Han had I not seen the raw sculpt.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

I'm with MaulFan. Since I know what the raw sculpt looks like I know Ford is in there...somewhere.

Mine's on his way and should be here in about a week.
Looking forward to god ole' Han!
