Hot Toys 1/6 Hoth Leia

[TaliBane]

Great pics, QGF and TB (sans the neck plastic ).

I'm not removing it. Don't care what he says. It's long underwear.

You pull that off, snap one of those little black things hanging from her ears - lost forever.



EDIT: think I found a way to get it off without pulling off the head.

Just got mine. She’s pretty spectacular...

Excellent photos, QuiGon!

I’m currently low on space. So Hoth Leia is temporarily on this shelf:

Love it, Cicada!

How did Hot Toys miss the heels?

Always wondered where those fashionable boots came from... because they ain't in the film...

 

[SilentSurfer]

Two different styles. Interesting.

Seems like a mixed bag from a collectables standpoint. Several different versions show they don’t know which is which.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Maybe the fancy ones are for the Falcon. Need to check...

I think the heels are for shots with Han so she doesn't look so short. But then there's this shot.

As long as the Hot Toys boots aren't inaccurate, I don't care which they use, although I do like the look of the heels more.

Anyway, this figure is very nice. None of the pics I've seen in-hand do it justice, not even mine. The hair could be browner though, and that is something I'll adjust later.

I was nervous to remove it too, haha. It’s thankfully one long piece of very smooth, not overly sticky rectangular plastic - at least mine was. You can gently pull it from behind her head and it should slip out pretty easily!

Wonderful shots!

The lift/heel boots (which have a zipper on the inner side) appear in all scenes where she interacts with Han. In shots where she doesn't, she has the flats. She is in the lifts more than the flats in ESB.

Interesting. You learn something every day. Must have given her those because of Ford's height. They look way too... hip or trendy for Star Wars.

One more unexplained continuity item. Did Leia keep a spare pair of fashion boots somewhere on the Falcon?

Maybe they can save the heels for a pink-outfit Topps EX version of the figure.

Excellent shot!
Chewie is looking at Leia like, “Where the hell did you come from!?”

That's the scene where she sprints into the Falcon as they evac the base, so she's wearing the flats I'm guessing for safety.

HT just can't seem to stop it with the dark hair. HT Han had black hair, HT Leia has dark brown/black and HT Luke had brown-copper.

You did say all. I just checked the film and couldn't find one shot.

Those fancy boots may be for close ups or medium shots but I don't think they were ever meant to be seen on film. Every long shot has her in the regular Hoth boots.

I just un-learned something today...

Leia's been in the **** for too long.

Everyone's pics look great. I saw her at Forbidden Planet and she looked awesome. Guess I didn't take notice to the spacey eyes. I'll see this weekend if it bothers me in hand

As for the wedges & flats, I never noticed them on screen but if she was wearing them it's very likely to give her height in scenes where she's not running or doing anything active. Same way they put Gadot in flats instead of the wedges for action scenes on Themyscira. Or did they just appear in promo shots?
