Hot Toys C-3PO (ROTJ)

[DCFett]

They’ll prolly roll all these out 1/24 a 4/24 I’m guessing. Didn’t last years list take a bit? That said, they will probably drop 2-3 of these in January. HNY

I remember last time they did the upcoming releases they had a few other figures not in the photo release as well.

 

[TonTon]

Bring it on. Have Vader and 3PO ordered

Historically, the "Upcoming Releases" has always meant within the next month or so.
I wasn't expecting 3P0 until next fall, so this is quite a pleasant surprise.

I believe one year it took 3 months before every figure in an “upcoming releases” image came out, because when Chinese New Year hits nothing happens for weeks.

 

[DCFett]

That’s kinda where I was thinking. 10-13 figures in a month is like ludacris speed!

Of course this version is coming just as I’m about done paying off the AOTC version. I’ll probably get him eventually and will retire my Sideshow 3PO or stick him in the background of another display.

You won’t be disappointed with the aotc version. I was on the fence about canceling and it’s instantly one of my favorite figures. It actually is heavy and feels worth the price, unlike dry cleaned bespin luke that feels like a feather for about the same price.

I would like to order this but will wait for the esb version. Unless I can get this at discount.

What are the differences between the OT films on C-3PO’s costume? Is it just the silver leg/foot? Is this version accurate to Jedi? Can’t figure it out.

Belly wires are different. This HT one is accurate to ROTJ.

Belly wires. Is that the only differentiation?

I still can’t tell. Isn’t the silver right leg gold foot in Empire supposed to also be there in Jedi? The only movie that he had a silver right leg and silver foot was in ANH. So why does it look like this release has the ANH leg and foot rather than the ESB or ROTJ version?

He has silver right foot plating in ROTJ:

The gold plating is in ROTS, Ahsoka and in the legends or 'what-if' TFA, TLJ, and in ROS

He has silver left foot plating in ROTJ:

He also had the gold right foot plating in ESB.

 

[jedijim3002]

It looks to me like this but it’s hard to tell.
ANH Silver right shin and silver foot
ESB Silver right shin and Gold foot
ROTJ Silver right shin Gold foot.
HT release Silver right shin silver foot.

ANH Silver right shin and silver foot
ESB Silver right shin and Gold foot
ROTJ Silver right shin Gold foot.
HT release Silver right shin silver foot.

That’s correct afaik. HT have it wrong.

 

[jedijim3002]

Nice. That’s what I thought too and why I was confused why HT would use the silver right foot instead of the gold.

 

[Chainedstream]

I love accuracy but to be honest, silver leg and foot looks better than the other. I cast my vote for an inaccurate 3PO!
