I think this might be a case where I put rewards points to use. That way I don’t feel as bad about the double dip. Truth be told though I’m more excited for the Snowspeeder Luke to release.

Oh, I'm MUCH more excited about Luke Snowspeeder.

I also blew all my RPs on the Scouttrooper on Speeder, so I have nothing for this Luke Bespin. Likely I'll wait for it to be delivered in 2024 and decide then.

The lights and the base used here came with ESB Boba Fett, didn't they?

If I didn’t have the DX07 I’d probably be more interested in this. As is though it’s just a double (technically triple) dip. I’d like it, but other figures are taking priority. Plus the Snowspeeder look is just awesome and I feel will stand out.

I don’t have a bunch of rewards, but like $55 or so. I’ll let them accumulate a bit more.

Hot Toys Bespin Luke Revisit. What do you think?

Hot Toys Bespin Luke | Our Thoughts

 

[Wor-Gar]

Agreed, its hard to want a 3rd Bespin Luke... maybe if it was totally battle-damaged.

I'm pretty surprised its so quiet around this release. Bespin Luke? We should be on page 10 already.

 

[Chainedstream]

Yes, yes, yes! This is a great day to be a Star Wars collector, excellent Hot Toys!

 

[Gipetto0812]

Looks really good overall but as a package, definitely doesn’t beat the dx07.
Also, looks like the Mando DX sculpt with new hair. Much better than the convention proto they showed with the open mouth ROTJ sculpt. Sucks that it doesn’t at least come with BD clothing even if not a full extra figure.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Strange to have Dagobah base and Vader helmet in a BESPIN Luke offering... but no cut-off hand stump.... in a BESPIN Luke offering.

 

[davejames]

Hmm not feeling all that blown away by this. The sculpt works fine from an angle but seems a little weird from straight on. And that outfit is way too damn clean, and kinda reminds me more of how he appeared on the Muppet Show. Lol

I guess it is an upgrade over my DX07 through so I'll probably pick it up at some point. Not in a rush to preorder though.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I will try to get the new boots and a head sculpt. And that's all. And maybe the better belt. And that's it...

 

[davejames]

So nice to at least get another OT preview again. Feels like an eternity since the last one .

 

[davejames]

Pretty cool shot here. I think the sculpt might be starting to grow on me...

 

[Asta]

I will try to get the new boots and a head sculpt. And that's all. And maybe the better belt. And that's it...

And the jacket because it's longer. And that's it...

 

[Asta]

At least they're including both bases in the deluxe deluxe this time.

However, I never much cared for the Cloud City bases when Sideshow did them. They separated figures as though they were standing on podiums.

 

[Dave_W]

Holy ****! Let's ******* go!

 

[Darth_Z]

I’m down for 2 - and I have the DX-07! I just love this character/stage in his journey so much. I wish it came with the backpack - and that the base went with the ESB Vader’s diorama base - but then he‘d need to be the battle-damaged version.

Now - where’s Bespin Han!?

 

[snoop101]

I think this release looks really good, though thats definitely the Luke mando headsculpt but with different hair pieces. As others have said its pretty light on accessories for a “DX”, especially when compared to the original. I’d love to see HT tackle a Dagobah training luke.

 

[Dave_W]

At first I thought I preferred the hair on Snowspeeder Luke as it looked a bit bigger and less slicked down, but it turns out it's the same hair.

I'm going to need a few more of those carbon chamber bases too!

 

[snoop101]

Good eye. So they’re re-using a lot of old parts for this I see.
