Every time I see pics of the beat up Luke I love this thing more and more. HT did a great job on that sculptures, but the regular Luke is a bit off not enough to pass this up.

There will probably be plenty of people on here wanting one over the other, so I think quite a few will be able to split sets.
 
At $270 from AE there shouldn't be any problem selling off a DX Luke for $135 for those complaining about having to buy two figures at once.
 
Pre-ordered it. I'm glad I'll finally have a decent Luke. :yess:

I wonder, it's been said the Weathervane can be mounted on the ceiling/wall. But how? An aditional part, perhaps? And I hope it'll be made of metal, to avoid it bending under the weight of Luke.
 
Taking it one step further let me try and think of the definitive figure for each year of the 80's:

1980: HT Bespin Luke/SSC Boba Fett
1981: HT Raiders Indy DX
1982: SSC Commando Snake Eyes (not yet previewed)
1983: SSC Emperor Palpatine/Jabba
1984: HT Tech Noir Terminator
1985: HT Marty McFly?
1986: HT Hicks/Ripley w/Power Loader
1987: HT Predator/Robocop
1988: Medicom Kaneda w/bike
1989: HT Keaton Batman/Nicholson Joker


1988 would have to be McClane. So where is he?

Kaneda who?
 
I prefer the Iron Man base to the new one, i'm thinking it has to light up, otherwise why would it be so thick?

Really? Just to clarify; you prefer a base reused from Iron Man to one that was made to mimic Bespin?

And yeah, my guess is it will light up.

I skipped over figures like Deckard and McClane that don't have any firm indications of actually being made yet (unless I'm mistaken). I stretched it for Marty McFly because it seems like he really may be in development.

Kaneda is from AKIRA, probably the most groundbreaking animated film of the decade.

Anime is dead.

I'm guessing the live-acton AKIRA will come and go just like Tron: Legacy did. Still haven't seen that movie and it doesn't seem like it had any significant cultural impact.
 
Nothing wrong with that. I enjoyed "Cowboys and Aliens" but I honestly couldn't tell you what either Daniel Craig or Harrison Ford's characters' names were in that movie. The new Tron seemed to have about the same impact. I look forward to catching it some day, I'm just not in any rush.

It's mostly eye candy. Mostly.

That about sums up my feelings on Legacy... looked cool, but I was kind of bored with it by the end :huh
