Am I the only one who wants HT to follow Enterbays example of the talking Depp figure. Maybe add a " NOOOO" sound effect when you remove Lukes hand. lol
I am just kidding btw

Maybe a little, but I think the area in which the sculptors have been most flattering is the nostrils:
I still think it's a great figure though, and it has the right overall look. It's just a bit idealized.
Love the look on Yoda's face in that photo!

That is an amazing photo. Yoda looks absolutely alive!
Fantastic.
As for Hamill's mouth, yeah, it has an odd shape, must be difficult to capture right.

Love that pic of Yoda! He does look alive.
I think DSD is right. Of all the places on the sculpt that could use a little tweaking, it's the nose. From that pic with Yoda it looks as if the mouth/lips of the figure are good.
My only beef with the reg. sculpt is that the face is not the post-accident Mark Hammil. It's almost like HT smoothed all the rough edges from the likeness and in doing so they have eliminated something important.

I'm loving this figure, I'm actually loving alot of HT figures right now, I remember PO Captain America & thinking I can chill for awhile now, save some money, there's nothing much I really want & then the SDCC pictures appeared & chill time was over. This is a must buy for me though, I wonder what else HT have planned for SW, 1st of all I was thinking Vader will definitely be next but it could actually be anyone, Obi, Hans, Leia but who ever it is you know it's going to be a must have.

Agreed, throughout the whole of ESB Luke looked pretty beaten up which they accounted for with the wampa attack, the regular sculpt does look like Hamill but it's almost like he's been sculpted as if his accident had never happened,
He may well have looked like this as he got older.
If Vader was next, it wouldn't be coming from HT, it would be coming from SS.

That's the painful thing about this arrangement. I want a hot toys vader. Not really a fan of SS vader.

Hot Toys designed the base body. I think that's the best you're gonna get.

2018 is still the end of the line, right? Or can Hasbro renew the license?
Only if SS allows it, which would be a longshot. I think in order for us to see a HT Vader, HT would have to get the SW license themselves.
I dont see why they couldnt renew it.

Would SS allow HT to do a Vader? Money talks after all!
Maybe, while people were generally happy with Sideshow's Vader, I know there were a few points that they were unhappy with that HT might have better luck with.
-Height
-Dome
-Cape
I would think Sideshow would be open to HT doing future Vaders because they could make money off aliens and such as they've been doing and let HT deliver. Either that, or Sideshow will want to show they can do better and give us an improved Vader.

Those are such minor issues, though. I would think those very are easy for SS to address and fix, especially for a Vader 2.0.
