Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[jedijim3002]

That's awesome Chaka! I was thinking about that too but not sure where you'd get a Hoth puffy jacket with the ribbed stripe down the sides of the sleeves. Hasbro's ponda baba has the closest thing but the stripe only goes down to the elbow and there's no collar.

Does the visor on the helmet drop-down?

Thanks! I thought of using the Sideshow Ceremonial Luke Jacket and dying it orange. You would have to make the collar or maybe get it from the Hasbro Luke Hoth jacket? I dunno, I got all the bits laying about just need to decide what would work better.

Yes, the visor does drop down. I actually split the helmet in two so I can place it on the head without damaging the headsculpt. The helmet fits fine once the hairpiece is removed.

That is what I originally did way back when with the Hasbro outfits. I used a normal Hasbro X-Wing outfit and added Ponda Baba's jacket. Then I used the collar, boots and gloves from the Hoth outfit and dyed the collar orange to match the suit. It's a little out dated now but for the time, I was happy with the result.


Do you guys think if I change out the head with this new HT one it will look too small on this figure?

The quality of both of these luke's is very nice like they shrunk him down for us lol.. just a outstanding set cant wait for han ......

Which Vader is that? Medicom?

 

[abake]

That looks like the Sideshow Vader.

 

[Snake Plissken]

That looks like the Sideshow Vader.

But isn't it out of scale and almost eye level with Luke? Is there any market Vader out there that's actually 1/6 that towers over the DX7?

 

[abake]

They seem to be at different angles, Luke is on the base and you can't see how Vader's legs are positioned.
Looks like the Sideshow figure to me...

 

[highlander1]

Here's one more and that's a sideshow vader from my earlier pic's b4...

I could kiss you, Ben!

The best part is that we'll get two Walrusmen in the set. One clean and one battle damaged for ultimate Walrusman display options.

Yes. The sideshow Vader is 14 1/2 inches tall and this Luke is 11 3/4 so yes he will tower over all 1/6 figures.

It's the medicom Vader that stands eye to eye with the HT Luke that your thinking of.

The Force will be with me when luke arrives tomorrow! Counting the hours!

Where's vader in the pic?

 

[kl241]

Where's vader in the pic?

In the cave?

 

[guyver1]

In the cave?

I think he meant Yoda or R2 Still that's a good cave setup.

I hope they do Harrison Ford justice this time around. Finally... a Han Solo figure worth getting

Great custom work! Curious which boots you're using on Jedi Luke?
