Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[j97e1]

This is not Luke.
All you guys will be getting is two figures of two blond dudes in Bespin outfits. Comic-Con cosplayer figures maybe?
If that's what HT is offering, all wrapped in a 'Luke' ribbon - Well then, I am happy to say that I will have some money left to pay for other figures that are actually look like the actors/characters they represent.

The cash-cow monster that the Star Wars license is... HT will have no problem selling these and at hight prices if they like.

Not matter what HT decides to charge, no matter how much you all gripe, you will all cave when the time comes. I've seen it time and time again, since the whining began over Sideshow Star Wars figures going up from $49.99 to $54.99.

The $300 barrier will be smashed (just as the $200 barrier was). If not with Luke, then with the next one.

I'd pay $300 for the ultimate Vader, but not for Luke.

 

[toystales]

The ultimate Vader may cost $400!!!

I agree on the clean version, but the BD version looks spot-on to me. I don't see how that figure could look any better?

Was looking at these pics again and this shot just sold me. Though I prefer Jedi Luke, this figure and especially the BD head is just amazing.

 

[SithThundercracker]

Dirty version is very good but clean version is not Luke at all. The outifit looks great, but I don't think the overall package is worth 400$...that's the price for a perfect figure!

 

[jayveeeusebio]

that awful figure was $300 !?!?

Yup. They really have the audacity to ask for that kind of price tag for a 'meh' figure.

 

[jayveeeusebio]

High Ht toys price + double figure+ expensive SW fee + SS fee since they have the 1/6 contract + you order through SS= EXPENSIVE

word

 

[bumblebee]

This will no doubt cost near $400 bucks, but I'll get it regardless.

If this figure ends up being that much, then it's time for me to pull out of this hobby. That's just ridiculous.

 

[King Darkness]

You said "pull out"...

 

[OSCORP]

If it's that much i'm selling one of em no problem.

Of course they will, I don't think anyone is too worried these will rot shelves.

I will but not on this one. If this is $300 Bespin Luke isn't really the one to do it. Jedi Luke since it'd probably be the Tatooine and DSII options would have me buying no problem but other than him, I don't see too many more that would. Boba Fett, Vader, Stormtroopers, I don't see much options in the DX realm so I'd be happy to get a clean one with a basic stand and call it a day. These will be parted out like nobody's business.

The $300 barrier will be smashed (just as the $200 barrier was). If not with Luke, then with the next one.

If HT does the armored figures outright and not just a SSC collaboration, those will smash through that barrier and people will buy it without question. I still think this is coming in at the $249-$279 window. I think the prices of these will rise as the releases come but the first one will be considered "affordable".

 

[Indiana Fett]

You said "pull out"...

"Luke, at that speed are you sure you're going to be able to PULL OUT in time?!"

 

[fantasymaker]

Ok , the figure itself is tremendous , awesome etc...but just a detail , the base is the same as the Iron Battle Damage , please change that ....

What can the possibly do on a stormie or Vader DX? Put PERS on the helmet lenses
