It would be interesting to see pictures of the so called Han v2 against the original

Agreed.....

Wouldn't it? But alas that has never happened. Can't understand why. Maybe so people with the original won't get mad.

Or maybe people with the re-release will feel special.

Someone did that, wonky eyed "WTF?" Han (1st batch) vs 2.0 but it was quite a while ago.

 

[Kamandi]

Someone did that...

Somejuan?

I never owned "version 1" so I don't know what it looks like in hand compared to "version 2". I don't imagine they're different figures though; HT just simply made more of them. Another batch of the figure that already existed, not a 2.0 version.

Same goes for Obi Wan and Vader.

Can someone post a pic of what the original batches "wonky eyes" looked like? I'm curious as to whether mine was the initial release or the latter release, because the eyes look fine on mine.

I liked version Juan better

It's not that exciting. I preferred the V2, but the version I got had a slight gap where the hair meets the head (V2 head is on the right, the sideburn/hair gap is on the left side), so I stuck with the V1 (left head).

I wonder if you remove that hair sculpt (magnetic), warmed it up, bent it a little, then stuck it back on, if it would sit more flush. I actually do like that V2 paint on the head sculpt better than my first run.

Looks like the same sculpt, just the V2 has a bit better paint apps. So they repainted the sculpt?

The gap on mine didn't have to do with the hair. If you look at the top of where the hair is on the head (on the right one) you see it suddenly stops so doesn't meet flush with the hair piece (basically there's hair missing compared to the original). The right one the sideburns continue higher.

To me the V2 has more going on in the paint apps (darker, more freckles) and the eyebrows have a slightly more determined shape, but not enough to forgive that gap at the top of the sideburns.

 

[SilverStar17]

I was thinking the same with the eyebrows looking a bit more determined, but didn't know if that was due to the angle of the picture making them look that way.

Besides the tan, I see blue eyes vs green eyes too, or is that a trick of the light? V2 hair looks darker there -- which is strange because a friend said his was lighter.

 

[Darth Fok]

V2 does look better. But I'm using a Jnix sculpt so I'm not too upset.

Yeah, not sure if it was just the light hitting the iris--they do seem lit up in that shot. Not sure I took any other photos than that one before selling it off.

Same boat.

Yeah, exact same sculpt, just better paint apps on the 2nd run.

Glad I waited for the second run then and didn't pay inflated after market prices for V1 (not that I would have anyway even if they didn't do a second batch of these). Not only ended up getting it at retail, but also a better painted sculpt.
