1/6 Hot Toys MMS 261-Star Wars: Episode IV-Han Solo 1/6th Scale Collectible Figure

[superado]

Wow, this seems like nothing more than bullying people who don't agree...and to make it worse, teaching a 6-year old that this is acceptable social behavior.

But like I said on FB

If you've put the money into this sculpt and you are happy with it in your collection what more do you need? Is it a necessity to try and convince everyone to have the same opinion as you? Like I said, end of the day it's all subjective. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. People see different things. Your happiness shouldnt require others to like the same thing you like.
I prefer the HT to this. Does the fact that you like this version hinder my enjoyment out of my HT, oh hell no. Do I think it's an insult to intelligence that you think the HT isn't Ford. Hell no. I don't give a ****. And Im not here trying to convince you or others to have the same opinion as me. Because I dont give a ****. Lol I love the whole HT SW line up on my shelf. Stock and all.

Let people enjoy what they want to enjoy. It's not hurting anything.

Oh my. I thought he was joking about 'taking it to FB'. Ok. Now THAT is some funny ****. Some people have way too much time on their hands.

Yeah once you hit Social Media, you're opening a can of worms my friend

Seems he only posted on the artist's FB page too, because he wanted a nice unbiased conversation. :/

Classic bullying tactics as I see it, giving an atomic wedgie to the class nerd and yelling out for everyone else to see and laugh along. Maybe there's more than meets the eye, like some deep-seated trauma from childhood.

But that didn't happen either. [emoji14]

IMO, the custom Han looks like he's having a bee sting reaction...on a bad hair day.

 

[Tinman2000]

Jar-Jar was EXTREMELY respectful with his comment. No matter what you think of either head sculpt, there is no justification for him being laughed at and mocked. WE should be insulted and offended by this treatment of one of our own.

And for the record, though no one holds Inigo in anything but respect on this forum, his ANH Han sculpt is a clear miss. The Hot Toys likeness is not perfect, but based on what I've seen, it is clearly superior (in my opinion of course), and I won't be apologizing to anyone for holding that view.

Well said QGF, well said.

Cheers, Tinman...

Just so we're keeping things in context, Inigo is an incredible sculptor. Witness:



That doesn't mean anyone is a fool for not liking this particular Han, and this constant pattern of behavior is getting tiresome. Might be time for DLD to put an end to it.

So much drama going on in this thread! If there is one thing I don't associate with my collecting, it's drama.

You must be new here.

 

[Skibbles]

lol, well one thing I don't WANT to associate with it is drama. I guess that would be more accurate.

No doubt, just didn't hit the mark on Han...as HT doesn't always hit the mark.

Put some glasses on that sculpt and give Professor Jones a class to teach.

Ive been here since 2009 and theres a particular member (leave it at that) that does nothing but downgrade other peoples opinions in this forum. In a nutshell, we shouldn't have to feel embarrassed to speak our opinions in fear that this snarky person will reply to us condescendingly.

In addition, one of the aspects of being a true "artist/painter" is being able to take constructive criticism in order to grow. Taking our critical discussions to outside social media in a "recruitment of belittlement and egotistical affirmation" is an insult to the profession and the family community that is the Sideshow freaks.

Im not naming any names though!

 

[Lejuan]

Pixel's landed a fine catch today

 

[QuiGonFishing]

Ha! I know exactly what you mean by that, Lejuan. But even though I have little doubt, as I'm sure you don't either, that Pixel will fancy himself manipulating and toying with us to his will with this round of insolent defamation cast upon this forum. And that he's done so for no other reason but to amuse himself with what I'm sure he's whispering to himself are nothing more than our petulant tantrums, this time feels different to me. We may be at a breaking point. The board seems to be speaking as one...

 

[TonTon]

Guys, let's get this thread back on topic. I just got this figure today, great likeness. Can't believe anyone said he looked like Mark Ruffalo.

 

[QuiGonFishing]

Do you mind if I post this on Facebook to laugh at you?
