Wonder if they’ll be a battle damaged/handless reissue, maybe as a con exclusive

Have we all come to the consensus that this is Mando Luke with the Snowspeeder hair piece plus another hair piece exclusive to the Bespin set?

Hmmm was looking forward to the messy hair buy i feel like it lost its volume from the prototype. Like he just had a trim. And it seems a bit pointy.

I think the DX07 looks more accurate face wise. I might be in the minority. I see a better likeness.

Glad for a rereleased but just dont see this as an upgrade. Maybe costume is more accurate, idk, but just missing lots of features of the DX07, base, extra head, clothing, and damaged options.

Looks like a 7. Decent but not as good as the prototype. Something about the outfit and the sweaty hair is off. I have the dx07 so this is meh for me. I’ll probably get it, but I’ll wait for a few reviews.

I think it look quite good in this shot, apart from the funky "I've been in trouble with the Yakuza" hand. I guess that's a replacement for the "stump".

Padding seems a bit OTT. It will be interesting to see how he looks once the padding is removed or chopped down a bit. Liking the head sculpt. Mr Whippy hair is meh.

As others have said, the clothes look a little pristine. He obviously shops at the same place as the Mando Tuskens, (insert Starwarsie shop name here).

Definitely overdone on the fatsuit. This was rather loose when he wore it. A little bit of weathering, fatsuit trimming and he could look solid.

DX07 is fine for me. Yeah it’s a bit dated but the weather vane plus bloody arm stump and messed up face makes for a really good display still. I haven’t liked this DX25 since proto for some reason, even the head which looks great on Mando Luke just doesn’t feel right here, maybe it’s just the hair. It looks too pristine for sure.

Is the deluxe worth the extra pennies? Can’t quite decide if I need (use) the base and the Vader/Luke helmet.

 

[redxavier]

Some of the pictures look great while others look a little off, possibly to do with the 'sweaty' hair. It looks great to me and I'm looking forward to getting this and adding to the Luke collection.

From the proto pics I thought we were getting a new regular hair sculpt but it’s the same as the Snowspeeder Luke. It’s underwhelming to say the least but fat suit removed could have potential. Interested to see if we get a tank top underneath.

I am definitely getting a chunky Starlord vibe.

IMO it looks better in this video than in the photos:


I'm not happy about the messy hair changes from the prototype, but otherwise looks good. I'm excited to see how Boba Fett looks on that cloud city base...

 

[fatmarco]

The messy hair set up is definitely the biggest disappointment as it looked pretty decent in the prototype. It looks like its maybe to to it being less flush to the face in the final version.

Also, hot take I guess, but there are massive issues with that Mando head sculpt.

This is a pretty good side profile of Mark Hamill though to be fair:

A consensus? On THIS forum??? Surely you jest.

I'm going to disagree for forum history's sake. Got to keep the streak alive!!

It seems pretty clear it’s still same mando sculpt just different hair.

Looks good to me. Wish it had the USB lightsaber but HT didn't want to try harder with this version. And this is a Dx figure from what I know

 

[hen88]

I'm happy with it. I love the Mando Luke head sculpt. This is such an improvement over the DX07 all around. I'm sure any complaints will fade away once you have it in hand.
