Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[KBA]

I'd like to see Bespin/Hoth Han get the DX treatment. Hope to to hell the rumor is true.

I also hope they just make it a kind of all in one Han or a least and ESB and RoTJ Han so we can get the vest and jacket looks

All we need is a ESB Vader.

I'm thinking/hoping that the new 'Deluxe' Vader SS has been hinting at will be part of the 12 days of sideshow along with EP1 Obi-wan

 

[devilof76]

Is there some kind of confirmation, or is this speculation?

1000% speculation. There's nothing to suggest that Hot Toys will be making a Darth Vader, other than that people refuse to believe that they won't.

Sideshow is doing an ESB and ROTJ Vader in One shot coming shortly for reveal

No need for a Hot Toys Vader

This is the first figure that I PO the exclusive as soon as it went up. Even managed to convince one of my friends to get it and he was a hardcore Gentle Giant Vintage line collector

You're bad friend!

Any confirmation for this?

They mentioned a new Vader in their Q&A from September:

"Can we expect a new 12-inch Vader? Maybe with a removable helmet Soon? WE all know you guys can’t control the aftermarket prices, but this guy is hitting the $500 mark on ebay. Those of us who missed him are praying to the Sideshow Gods!!! That you do another one soon! Please throw us a bone here.

Yes! We’ve been pleasantly surprised with Vader’s aftermarket value, and you are not alone in a wish for a new release. Our concept for the new Vader figure is very much a ‘deluxe’ sort of offering, attempting to represent Vader in as complete a way as possible from Episodes V and VI. He’s in the works, and will see release in 2012."

And whos to say that its not in conjunction with HT?

I wouldnt throw anything out the window.

 

[pixletwin]

If I remember right, someone from SSC commented here that HT wasn't involved with this Vader at all.

 

[krewe555]

I think the sculpt is halfway between hamill in episode IV and episode V. I think HT should have gone with ANH luke to start with. Facial proportions are much more natural, before Hamill was in the car accident.

This makes me sad!

I hope either Hot Toys or Sideshow will make a ROTS Vader!!!!! I NEED one!

Great news! Missed out on the first Vader and can't spend the high price to get one off ebay, not to mention the inaccuracies. Hopefully the next Vader will coincide with the HT Luke release give or take a few months.
Oh, and Happy Holidays fellow freaks!

Love it.

I hope HT doesnt do Vader so we can get a Han and Leia outta them faster.

Sideshow can do Vader justice.

I agree. Whatever people may say or feel about the Luke Sculpt I still think that the figure looks amazing and is actually a good/fair price. Being unfamiliar with HT I was worried about pricing but I am pleased. So now I say bring on the other humans. I am also very happy though with my SS Vader, clones and other non human subjects.

 

[Boba Ben]

Me too. I think Sideshow has proven they can make an awesome Vader based on the one that was already released. I want Leia and Han.

 

[Butters]

It's sounding like all the HT Star Wars figs are going to be DX's!?!?

 

[karamazov80]

That's the impression I got. But then, if Hot Toys has a major release nowadays, chances are it's gonna be a DX. I just thank the gods that Superman somehow escaped unscathed (even though that wasn't originally HT's intention). ____ ____ing PERS.
