If the Hot Toys sculpt had a furrowed brow like the Jinx one, it would have made a world of difference. I think TaliBane is spot on that it has to do with the expression.
When you look at that side-by-side, it's so hard to figure out why jnix's looks like a shrunken down HF and the HT doesn't. What's weird is that a lot of things look so similar to the HT, yet the likeness is so much stronger on the Jnix. It's the mouth and the browline, but there are obviously other facial subtleties that need to be nailed.
In some ways the best thing is it actually has an expression (and a kind of rugged one at that,) whereas the HT is pretty blank faced.
The things that I notice that are mainly different is that the Jnix sculpt is rounder overall and feels fuller in the cheeks. On the HT head the forehead and taller hair end up looking pinched just a bit toward the top. The HT one looks the slightest bit stretched in comparison.
For me, the subtle expression in the lips, and then the brow and eyes are where the likeness comes out as stronger on the Jnix sculpt. Really does help too that the hair looks a bit more like Ford's. The shape of the HT hair always reminded me of Roger Federer.
C'mon - honest mix-up by HT...
My HT-clothed Han will finally get the headsculpt he deserves tonight. Can't wait to see how amazing it's going to look!
