Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[Wor-Gar]

They share T2 Terminator, but that doesn't happen with it. Unless its specific for LFL.

Indy was a problematic figure so I think they delievered that with their tails between their legs. HT never had that experience prior.

So IF we don't get pics, its a good indication that Luke may have clear issues much like Indy.

Let's hope we get pics.

But is T2 a shared license anymore? It might have been at one time, but does SS even still have it?

Just got a 2-day arrival notice for luke. charging monday, expected to ship out by tuesday.

No pressure, man. Even if you MAY be the very first to post in hand pictures. Recommend wearing a hat and staying off facebook.


Godspeed to you, Sir.

I know, I got excited too.

Not sure, but I thought SS just did a Terminator statue or something. Again, could be specific agreement with LFL.

Whatever the case, if the figure is good, proud pictures will surface.

I was thinking that if this does come out ****ty, I think HT really needs to swollow some pride and finally address these issues with PERS. I love them, but if they are hurting the sculpt and likeness, then they need to address it and look at another option or drop them altogether. They work great for characters like Batman, Joker, Captain Jack (as its been mentioned numerous times before) but other characters that it doesnt benefit, maybe just shouldnt be made a DX then?

I dunno, but this being STAR WARS and all and if HT ****ed up SW, then its best they start getting their **** together.

I'm positive OMG probably has this in his possession as we speak. He had the DX 12 Batman 7-8 days prior to making is photo review.

Those pics were of the real deal, this guy is out now.






On another note. I don't know if I mentioned this before but it would have been lolz to see this as the second head,

I'd display that proudly. If they can make the TDK Joker laughing sculpt, which has similar eyes, they could do that.

Time to see what the customizers can do!

Our only hope is that Howard is like us -- he loves Star Wars and simply wouldn't want to screw it up. I have to believe that the figure is fine and will look like it has been presented (if you're OK with that).

Now whether OMG has the figure or not yet, who knows? But with this, I would think he'd be photographing the heck out of it immediately and posting rather swiftly, especially after what's happened the last few days.

I'm convinced no one in this thread has a clue what the facts are regarding this figure.

I am also convinced that Tom Cruise is an alien.

That is all.

I'd be happy with it GONE.

I've got the 89 Keaton & Jack, & I haven't tried to use theirs at all. All the horror stories about the mechanism being fragile etc.. I've just left it.

That said - it's great for those guys, they really do benefit from it - as per all the wonderful hi-res shots in here. Standard human faces though, just need to be sculpted & painted well - common sense to avoid technical problems by complicating something like a human face, that simply doesn't need to be.

This is my belief as well. Ive read enough to know that Howard loves Star Wars. And Id like to believe he wouldnt settle for anything less than Proto quality for this release. I just have a hard time believing that Howard and co. "screwed the pooch" on Star Wars (of all things).

That's what forums are for: factless speculation and debate amongst passionate people who believe a man can fly and think they understand the proper rules to be a Sith.

Has HT given you a date on when youll have it to photo? Let them know we are all going crazy here.

Yeah, but some people are convinced it'll be crap no matter what. And, of course, if it does turn out to be crap, they'll gloat about how they were right and "called it."

Tom Cruise is an alien. Called it!
