HT should've given the job to Sideshow.

At least with Sideshow the eyes would have been asymmetrical. :lol

Seeing these all side by side just show me how off the HT sculpt is. The nose is too small, the lips are too big, the head's shape is too round. Nope. Looks way off to me, even more so than I thought before. Thanks a lot! :mad:

Those photos of Ford from ANH really show how well Hot Toys captured his likeness at the time of the movie.

Such differing opinions on this figure.
 
Somebody should start thinking about commissioning custom hair pieces for this head.

At the moment, it's turning an otherwise 'decent' likeness into a Ruffalo-esque misfire.

Maybe when I get mine, I'll display it without the hair. :lol

And yet... the HT Avengers Ruffalo sculpt doesn't look hugely like Ruffalo.:dunno
 
Lets see how the production version comes out, I have a feeling they won't tweak the sculpt itself, but they might fix the hair a bit.
 
Its weird that HT isnt trying much lately to do a good job with their sculpts. I mean why spend good money on the SW license only to churn out these subpar turds?

If they frizz the new hair a bit, I'm all set for one half of my "Short Circuit" display.:yess:
 
Looks like a few folks in here have gotten a case of Stockholm syndrome with this Han figure. I guess if you stare at the spec pics and acquaint yourself with the look of the figure long enough, your mind gets used to the sculpt despite the fact that it looks nothing like Harrison Ford. Hot Toys' sculpt idealism and detail can have that effect on the mind.

Rest assured, it's still the same exact head with the crappy likeness, weird *** proportions, thick forearms and awful looking boots.
 
Exactly. Ford looks surprisingly different in ESB, and that is what I keep seeing people compare this sculpt to, in regards to the likeness.

I personally think this is a great ANH Han.

Yes a lot of people only seem to want to see a ford likeness as he looked from ESB. He has a very different look in ANH and to me this is very close,not perfect but still very close and i do see the hair being tweaked to sit a little lower
 
Hot toys cares. They totally redid the Obi wan prior to preorder. I'm sure this will get a revisit.

I find your lack of faith disturbing...or your drinking too much moonshine:wink1:

Don't hold back Difabio.. :lol
 
Fabs, with a spirited take, as usual. :lol

BTW, it's Helsinki Syndrome. As in Helsinki, Sweden. ;)

Helsinki Syndrome
A mental condition where the afflicted person is unable to distinguish between the countries of Sweden and Finland, despite the two being distinct from each other. This condition is usually a symptom of a lack of general geographic awareness.
 
"Gail Wallens: Dr. Hasseldorf, what can we expect in the next few hours?
Dr. Hasseldorf: Well, Gail, by this time the hostages should be going through the early stages of the Helsinki Syndrome.
Harvey Johnson: As in Helsinki, Sweden.
Dr. Hasseldorf: Finland."
