Hot Toys DX24 & DX25 Bespin Luke Skywalker (Regular and Exclusive versions)

cut-n-sew is a bit rough but the overall fit looks better and more Luke 1980.

That's the "clean" suit too. The DX07 battle-damaged one would look even better.

They are different right? Some of the reviewers are saying the Bespin sculpt is exactly the same as Mando Luke, but this video is the first time that they look different right next to each other.

CGI Luke appears to have more of a frown going on. Maybe it's just the angle or the paint apps that make it appear different.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Every line and crack on both faces -- Mando and Bespin -- match.

Paint and lighting changes alot in photos.

Take a look at Jedha Patrol's review where he has both in the same shot and lighting.

 

[matrix69]

They look the same there alright. Jedi Luke still holds up pretty good next to them.

I never had the old DX07 version so i'm looking forward to completing the line-up of OT versions.

This is the way!!!

We need a Hall of Armour for all the Hot toys Luke's now.
Iron Man has one.
Batman looks to have one.
Come on Hot toys!!

Justin's review is up. Several comparisons to the original. I never had the original so I'm glad to pick this up

Not watching the review but just from the thumbnail its nice to see the foam actually holding some accessories nowadays.

 

[davejames]

Damn, seeing all these comparisons I'm thinking I might have to pick this up after all. The new outfit may be too clean and form-fitted and not quite the right color... but it still makes the DX07 outfit look rough as hell and like something made by Sideshow circa 2006.

What exactly does ‘standing straight up and down’ mean again?

 

[wongderek]

Perfect

 

[fatmarco]

Are people actually debating whether this sculpt and the mando sculpt are different? You really think they released two figures within months of each other with two completely different but brand new sculpts?

They are the exact same mould, and subsequently have the exact same issues.

What exactly does ‘standing straight up and down’ mean again?

Not sitting bent left and right.

 

[xipotec]

That flight suit is terrible, Horrible fit, HUGE stitching, off color, and too clean.

Some of that is fixable, most is not...

But it will probably be the last Bespin Luke to be had....

 

[Wor-Gar]

Justin's review is up.

Good review and comparisons. DX07 definitely shows its age here.

I hope and pray for a new battle-damaged Luke Bespin as an SDCC exclusive. I think that would give me the BEST of both figures.




Imagine these two mixed together...

And then the new BD Luke posed with this guy...

 

[Mike86]

After watching Justin’s review and the side by side comparison the new one is so much better than the DX07.

I thought I would be content just keeping my DX07 but now I’m not so sure. I mean I will keep it either way, but I may need to add the new one to the collection at some point.

Also love the carbon chamber base and the fact that it can light-up with USB. So glad Hot Toys is finally starting to incorporate that into pieces instead of batteries.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

The battle damaged DX07 still takes the cake for me but the DX24/25 as the clean version kills the DX07 clean version.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I definitely like the DX07 BD pants and boots better (at least we know the DX07 boots will last). I'd love to try and match the DX24 jacket to the DX07 pants, as the DX07 chest pockets drive me crazy (too big, too high). And of course, use the new head. The DX24 belt is also likely better.

 

[sithocan]

I'm in the minority I guess. I was never interested in BD outfit of DX07. So if this is better than clean version of DX07, I'm sold.
