Nope. The bottom is actually a pretty gruesome cauterized neck stump.

 

[Alex Logan]

Wait, you guys wear gloves when you handle your figures? WTF?

Yeah?

 

[pixletwin]

Yeah?

Made sense to me after hearing about peoples fingernails getting caught on the CR Supes blue jumpsuit. When I am dusting the collection it always feels cleaner.

 

[Matt S]

WOW, I thought you guys were joking about the gloves!!!! Its cool - just a bit extreme

Indeed. And the acid from your fingerprints will do damge after time.

The smell of the figures does stick to my fingers. Dat Hot Toys factory manufacturing smell. Not altogether unpleasant or malodorous, though.

I love the smell of a freshly opened box of 1:6.

a very nice touch they could have skipped... only gripe is wanted a xtra saber and hilt with backdrop but glad we get a whole 2nd figure instead of hunting down a xtra body for both heads......

Same here, I wish I could bottle that smell and wear it.

Yeah I agree. No backdrop was a bit of a let down.

I'M pretty sure thats what got me addicted to these damn things ....CAREFUL no SURGEON GENERAL WARNING your wallet may become empyty......

 

[highlander1]

Do we realy expect a 1/6 carbonite chamber...THAT will be HUGE!!! IT would be AWESOME BUT very very big...

 

[highlander1]

I would love the bespin platform and window sometime...

Here are a few more crappy pics...
Just to show Luke vs. some other figures for scale...
Sorry about the tint and focus... quick shots

My favorite pose, I might leave them like this!

With Yoda:

With Medi ROTJ Boba Fett

With Medi ESB Boba Fett, looks really good IMO

With Medi Droids!!! I think he looks particularly good next to 3PO...

 

[pixletwin]

Cool pics Kuzeh.

It's odd, that's for sure. Can you pick up your order there?

I usually do, yeah, but I'm not able to tomorrow. So they'll either ship it tomorrow and I'll get it Friday, or (if they get it in Friday) I'll go pick it up.

Damn.... So that's Friday plus a week at the earliest for me.... BOO!

There's a chance they might get it in tomorrow and ship out, Friday is just the earliest for me personally.
