Hot Toys 1/6 Hoth Leia

[Alice Adrenochrome]

Gutted... SSC eliminated my wait-list for Hoth Leia a couple of days ago, without notice. Where's the days when they had the c[FONT=DDG_ProximaNova]ourtesy[/FONT] to inform you about what's going down in you account... . Anyway, can't find here at the usual online stores either.

Beside the slightly too long face

Not too long.... that's cocaine chic.

I didn't even realize a wait list was still going. This figure has been out for quite a while, I don't think she's too hard to find on the secondary market.

I looked on eBay and they all seem pretty expensive.
Where are you in the world?

True, at one point the WL was closed: "waitlist full", but I was on it before that.
SSC said they are completely sold out, non more left, so they closed the list.
Sure, the figure is easy to find on Ebay but too expensive for my taste. I rather wait for an opportunity.

$$$ Exactly. Like you I'm from Europe. I don't have to tell you about prices here!

Just happened to discover this last night. Don?t know why they have to use rubber...

 

[dukefett]

What are we looking at, the tiny mark on the neck?

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

Yes, there is some peeling occurring.

If they used titanium, it wouldn't be able to move like a neck does...
Seriously though, you just need to try and make sure the head doesn't rub the neck too much.
It's a real tradeoff. You want movement? It will have to be pliable(And will have to be painted to match the skin).

Titanium?

Majority of figures don't have necks like this and are perfectly fine. It's just a questionable decision by ol hot toys. Nothing more.

I still stand firm that this is the best Leia release, and honestly the only one I had remote interest in.

That's because Dave always repaints his figures and makes us all look bad!

Looks amazing davejames! Did you just remove a fat suit or do some tailoring?

I don't know if she had a fat suit exactly, but there was an inner layer that I removed. Then I dremeled the body a bit thinner and slimmed down the outfit.
