Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[CaptnRex]

I'm surprised it didn't get shown at any Asian toy fairs recently too?

I think the normal headsculpt needs a tweak, I don't see enough likeness in it personally.

Excitement aside, it's been far too long since announcement of this figure to receiving it, its ridiculous.

Two companies share the license is not good.
Sideshow is announcing several items of Star Wars.

I don't know about that. With the time it's taking to release one HT figure SS has released like 3 or 4? I'm glad they are sharing the license. Otherwise we may never get or have gotten all that both companies have to offer.

 

[jedijim3002]

Boba, IG-88, Battle Droids, Clones. They were all showcased at the same time as bespin Luke. And they have all been released and in hand. HT just has so many other licenses that it's hard for them to focus on one.

Is this still on for October? It's ridiculous. I have it p.o.'d since last bloody November!!!

I had Avatar on order for over a year. And the Tron light cycle took 18 months!

Why does anyone pre order any more? I always wait for in hand pictures now, given the premium prices these action figures command

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Pre-ordering can be cheaper - depending on who you go through.

So you can be guaranteed to get one at the highest price point possible? Dunno

 

[dsokyra]

Finally pulled the trigger on this guy...had to have HTs first Star Wars figure

On the figures I do pre-order I mostly do it for the security of getting the figure as soon as possible and also threw the company I know I can depend on. But on this figure I made an exception I knew I would buy this figure eventually, I wanted the exclusive SSC piece because I am a sucker, I wanted to use flexpay (mostly to ensure I didn't back out like a coward and could pay in bits and pieces), and finally because I trust SSC more than most distributors (also I get reward points that are basically what I would of saved at most other distributors).

Grats man I hope you will be as happy as I will be when this guy is finally released

CF have lost my support - I do not recommend any more

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

I like how the stormtrooper on your Sig, is pointing to your scathing endorsement.

 

[Invictus Sol]

Haha, it's almost like he's saying "This!".

Case Fresh has always looked after me - & I've been buying from them on & off for about six years now. They're just a bit sluggish getting their $h!t together with their new site.

Apparently they've just received a whole bunch of new stock - some local guys got the email recently.
