Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[Glennfett]

the antenna would be a great extra for this figure...now next we would need the top of the MF so we can see Lando awaiting to grab luke when he drops off the antenna

Who's to say we won't also get the window backdrop? Hmmm?? HT does did provide a backdrop with DX Bruce Lee, Don Corleone, Mech Test Tony, Sweeney Todd, and will give us one with Indy, among others I'm probably forgetting. Luke's stand at SDCC seemed to be an obvious stand-in from the BD Mark III, so hopefully we'll get something cool in addition to the antenna.

It would make perfect sense to have a backdrop where one side is the inside of the Bespin. . .uh, building w/window, and the other was clouds or whatever so you could pose the antenna in front of it.

Sounds good to me. . . hopefully, it's just not ginormous tall, like the Godfather backdrop was.

It was Lopie, but I don't know if he ever finished it.

Oh. WOW. I really want a window similar to that to display behind Palps and his throne - fantastico!

Let me guess the with the backdrop included most people still think it should be $250

 

[DeadLeaves]

The way HT prices are going 250 is the conservative end of town for this one.

 

[Johnny Utah]

God damn specs already!!!

 

[Darth Mangler]

Really looking forward to this one. I have SS's. I was disappointed in SS's. Once this one is pre-ordered, I will see my sideshow one.

I can't imagine the backdrop would affect price as much as the damn Lucas license, but I agree with Leaves that $250 is on the lower side of my estimate. I would guess closer to $275, backdrop or no.

 

[The Josh]

Didn't think Luke's stand was a piece from the BD Mark III at all. I'm fairly certain its going to be part of the figure. The price of this probably will be in the $275-300 range.

Yeah , a lot of people seem to think $250 max for what's been shown and I still think that's got about a .1% chance of happening. I just find it amusing when people say it won't be that much yet keep saying it should have all the extra stuff which will only raise the price. I would be surprised to see it be less the 299.99.

Well, can we comparison shop with other Hot Toys DX figures to create a guesstimate? Lesse, Luke comes with two headsculpts, multiples hands and a stump, the tourniquet thingie, lightsaber, stand, multiple costume pieces, and a giant-a$$ antenna. Any other HT DX come close to that? Jack Sparrow, maybe? And he's at $240 through SS. I don't think $250 for Luke is off the mark.

Hot Toys has me on this at any price...

You're forgetting to factor in this is a SW product and that will make it more expensive than other stuff.

I dunno, you may be right, but I gotta think the Disney license is right up there too. I'm probably in anyway, but I hope pricing levels off at DX Jack numbers. They can certainly keep pushing the envelope, but for me, I don't need ANY 12" piece of plastic $300 bad. A nice custom of the SS one is doable for alot less.

Sadly, me as well.

Now lets get a preorder already!!

I'm sure Disney isn't cheap but I don't think it costs as much to get them as it would say SW. Just a guess though.

 

[dredman1]

On the fence, really would like to know the price of this figure...
Prices are getting pretty ridiculous for 1/6 scale figures!!!
