Bespin Luke 12" figure

[PosterBoyKelly]

I actually think the original ROTJ sculpt had a stronger Mark Hamill likeness, regardless of expression.

+2.

The eyes are really throwing this for me, that's why, right now, I'm convinced some new paint would make this actually look better. BUT who knows?

Here are some really quick screen grabs for comparison:

Great pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you do one of that shot where Vader has Luke at the edge of the freezing chamber -- the wide shot behind Luke?

 

[JustinLuck]

This one?

 

[Wor-Gar]

AWESOME!!! Thanks, Justin.

It has nothing to do with Luke Bespin, but that was always my favorite shot as a kid. Hard to find that pic anywhere. I want to make it my desktop picture.

Does anyone think they will actually change the collar if they are not even willing to sculpt a new open left hand?

It's almost like this is their version of the GI Joe scar or something it's just ridiculously huge and looks goofy.



PLEASE SIDESHOW GIVE BESPIN LUKE THE RIGHT COLLAR AND PLEASE GIVE US A NORMAL SIZE OPEN LEFT HAND


I don't want my Luke to look like he could successfully ***** slap a Wampa!!

Hmm....are you sure that is all that is needed? I like the figure for the most part but that collar looks off even if flipped up. Someone else posted in another thread a nice outline of the actual collar and the SS collar. They appear to be completely different. To me the collar needs to be fixed, the clothes tightened (they look oversized to my eye), and the jacket pockets should be smaller and down on the chest. The sculpt is a bit off but I still see ESB Luke in that sculpt. Not perfect as I would like but not bad. I can't help but be a bit disappointed since I was sooo looking forward to this figure. However, it looks better than anything else I have seen when comparing it to any other ESB Luke, including the PF.

Ditto here.

Wor-Gar,

Well in that case, here's the unedited PNG file. You can change the brightness, contrast, colors, etc. to what you prefer.

Cool, thanks Justin!

I just made the desktop from the other pic and it looks awesome! Very dramatic shot; always my fav.

Interesting choice though, because the camera angle makes Vader look short and stalky compared to Luke hehe, apparently George Costanza performed some stunt work for Prowse

Could you post a like to that comparison picture?? Thanks.

I honestly don't care that much about a collar... he looks fine and I seriously would have probably never even noticed. But it won't hurt if they fix it, but I don't plan on losing any sleep

Anyway, isn't there already a thread about that

 

[creature4000]

any idea when he's going up for order?

In the video diary they said he won't be shipping until 1st or 2nd quarter 2008....

I read at the Con 4th Qtr 2007. Padme was 1st Qtr 08 though.

Anyone heard what the exclusive is? Con to the con give you less info on that sort of thing.

"Bacta splint"

Here you go:

The designs of the two collars are, in fact, very different, and just flipping it up to simulate the costume version will probably not yield the desired effect.

They need to fix the collar
