Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[rushmore223]

Best to take it with a grain of salt, but someone posted about Sideshow confirming this was still happening around SDCC. No explanation of why he wasn't on display... but that he would still happen.

So fingers crossed. I can't imagine they'd put that much R&D into a figure to scrap it.

Grievous is one of the only Prequel figures I would buy, but if he does come out, I am afraid of how much it would cost. After all this time, one has to assume that the engineering of this figure must be problematic for SS.

Correction - One of the only Non Clone Prequel figures I would buy.

Ah, well there we are.

WTF

 

[King Darkness]

That's brilliant!

 

[DiFabio]

Oh my god, that DX insert is amazing!

 

[Prime Clone]

Right, so SSC dont just send it via the normal Australia Post, but use FedEx couriers?

Pretty much everyone is telling me to relax and that it should all be OK from SSC direct, even if it's just in the HT brown shipper. Maybe I'll just order it

Yes, FedEx is the only option for international orders.

My only complaint has ever been the cost - back when the exchange rate was crap it would cost $A50-60 to ship a figure, these days it's a more reasonable $A30-40.

In looking at the video the accessories look amazing.

One thing that I would say from seeing the clean head is that like usual, HT sculpted a little more "pretty" version of Luke. The BD looks a little better I think because of the kind of stupid look that Luke has through most of the film.

Also something that often makes head sculpts look off is very rarely do you see any actor with their mouths shut. Most of the time they are talking or have them slightly open. And I think that is another reason the BD head looks a touch better.

If you hate Star Wars, then why in the Hell are you in this thread?

I dont like G.I. Joe, and I can tell you, you will never find me posting in there.

Sounds like a very sad waste of time to me.

Is Luke a split shipment?

I was just thinking what they could do with DX Han is if they gave us TWO portaits. One serious face. One with a smirk. And make it so the heads could fit the HT Indy then we could have more (and hopefully better) options for Indy as well. That would be sweet.

Only problem is that the hat probably wouldn't fit on Han's hair

Hair would be changeable, like Luke's.


(Too much to hope for though! Indy is doomed to be...DX05)

I would hope so, I'm just saying that even though it's changeable it probably wouldn't be able to accomodate a hat The Indy hat hair is very flat

Precisely. Han's hair would be too long, and not all of Indy's hair is removable.

Hence, Indy is doomed to remain DX05. Unless there's a Temple of Doom in the pipeline.
