I don’t think you can fully appreciate this figure until you see it in person. That shine is amazing! The grime doesn’t bother me at all. I’m happy.

It’s awesome and might be my overall favorite hot toy right now. If it wasn’t so much I’d get a second for endor. With the die cast and weight it feels like you actually get your money’s worth.

Been really trying to figure out what is wrong in the sculpt of the head of this figure. In trying to carefully match the size of the torso/shoulders in ref pics, it seems like the head is close to 10% undersized, while the eyes are the correct size - even if they appear slightly too large because the head is slightly undersized.

The actual sculpting inaccuracies (ie if you correct for the undersize scale) seem to be the eyes being too close together - giving a slightly Harry Potter glasses vibe - and the head being slightly too rounded, needing to be slightly more stretched vertically, ie a narrower oval.

I've been searching for a 3PO 3D file to see if I can get a 3D printed faceplate that might fit onto the back side of the existing HT head in the same way the HT one does. If correctly sized the print head would intrude a bit too much into that "ear frame" that surrounds 3PO's head at the ear line but shouldn't be hugely noticeable, maybe a little over 1mm all the way around.

I think the head of 3po is the most difficult thing to recreate.

Anyone still waiting on this guy? Ordered from popcultcha locally and it’s radio silence so far

No need for this guy anymore ever since I PO'ed the ESB Chewbacca set

I'm in the same boat as you. Still waiting impatiently for them to ship it out.

Yes, it appears to be a very slow 'boat' from China. I think original estimate for this was April so yeah, it would be great to get it this year

Some websites just delete the page when the product sells out, like Popcultcha and there are those that keep it but list it as sold out. And then there are a small few like these guys who actually bother to update it as Q4 this year and they still have it listed for preorder!

It's 1 of 4 I missed PO on at Popcultcha as I've been chasing Kenner vintage the last few years.
This is the final piece to that puzzle.
As you said,Pop do take items down when PO is closed out.
If there are cancelled orders,he will pop back up.
