Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[wofford29]

The sculpt appears to be a much closer likeness to a pre-accident Hamill than it does the post-accident Hamill. It's a good, not great sculpt in the wrong outfit.

Despite being from my favorite film in the trilogy, the Bespin look is one of my least favorite Luke appearance so I think I'll hold out for another version. Happy HT is working on the license now for sure though.

Its weird how this was the first SW figure I got as a kid. I will buy this one the day its released. It looks awesome!

 

[stshammgod]

I don't believe for a second that stand and antenna come with the figure...

I think that's for the show as well. Maybe a separate piece.

It's kind of frustrating that they don't give us basic information like what comes with the figure.

Might as well get this one. With HT track record, we will a get 2 or 3 figures and that will be it.

I dunno. Considering how many Iron Man and Predator figures HT has done, I would think Star Wars (which is a much bigger franchise) would be huge. Of course, we don't know what the details of their agreement with Sideshow are.

Not to mention Iron Man and Predator figures require minimal "retooling" between each new release.

I guess we could get Farmboy Luke, X-Wing Luke Death Star Run, Yavin Luke, Hoth Luke, X-Wing Hoth Luke, Jedi Luke and Endor Strike Force Luke.

The agreement is most likely going to be that HT gets to produce all the characters that Sideshow sucks at!

I for one think this looks amazing. Luke is THE character that I wanted to be growing up (it was 6 million dollar man until Star Wars), and I totally loved ESB. He was gettin' all dirty trainin' and learnin' the force. He battled a Wampa, AT-AT's, Boba Fett, and Vader. He had several awesome outfits(more figure options), and my favorite of all the films has got to be the Bespin outfit. It's totally awesome. All kinds of gear on his belt, he has dirt and rips all over it, and he has a lightsaber AND a blaster....freakin sweet. Anyway, I'm sooo excited about this HT version of Bespin Luke. I only own 5 HT figures as of now but this DX Luke is a must for me!

word up man.. My favorite luke out fit is Bespin.. this is a no brainer for me and a must have unless the price breaks the $300 mark...

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Totally agree guys - & nice post steveaustin!

 

[EVILFACE]

Lets be fair here and compare recent releases...

While the HT likeness could be a hair better, it stomps the hell out of the MediBay abomination.

 

[The Craw]

i don't know. i'm liking the overall figure but i keep seeing Johnny Depp in the mouth area.

 

[Star Puffs]

Girlish glee!!!

I just started looking over SDCC pictures, and this is an amazing surprise! Bespin Luke was always my favourite version when I was little. Unless it is over $300 I will buy it automatically.

 

[jpf1138]

Any word on whether or not the lightsaber lights up? Doubtful I know, but a fella can dream can't he?

 

[HottoyzJoker]

But HT DOESN'T have the SW License.

How many time can it be said before people can understand this.

Sideshow does and HT is working with them it was on HT facebook page enough said... Kind of like when HT and Sideshow teamed for the T2 line...

 

[ShadowX81]

Is there really an arguement about this? Are the last 70 pages worth of pictures imaginary?

 

[Ausfan]

Gold!!

That's all that needs to be said!!!

at Snake Eater, nienumb, and RIDDICK's avatars.

Don't you mean his removable headpiece? His neck is not even attached to his freakin' body! Looks totally half-a$$ed displayed next to HT Luke! Poor Medicom...I'd feel worse for them if they didn't overcharge so much for their figures.

Are we thinking this MAY be end of the year?
