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

[Prime Clone]

The likeness is great, I just hope Hot Toys does the all the core characters.

Star Wars + Battlestar Galactica = twice the win!

Edit: Thought that was Lorne Greene but the analogy still stands!

I still haven't seen this film, it's one of Jim Cameron's first jobs.. right?

Yes, Cameron was doing FX, then conspired to have the art director fired, took over as art director, then named a bad guy in the original Terminator treatment after him. Pretty mean spirited actually.

+ Barbarella + Westworld. Ya gotta cover all the bases.

I think from memory, he talks briefly about it in the bonus material on The Terminator.

That and the Harlan Ellison credit. Very briefly.

Man, swap out the hair and that could stand for one of Hot Toys' Bale Bruce Waynes. Looks closer to Toy Fairs 155 Begins Bruce than Han Solo.

This. Still, compared to the DX05 Indy, this is a masterpiece.

I pop in here every now and then to see if the likeness is as bad as I remember, because I really, really want to buy this figure. But that is unspeakable.

Come on, man, he wasn't that bad in Police Academy.

The irony is I think Chewie actually looks pretty decent in that pic. Of course it might help that he's in the background, out of focus...

 

[YankeesFanboy]

There's so much wrong with Chewie. I appreciate HT's attempt to recreate him, especially on a mass scale, but the face is just so underwhelming to me, even more so than Ben's.

 

[Chubs&Doggers]

Chewie is great. It's han that's off. This is a must and guaranteed buy from the get go but damn if HT can't capture HF true likeness. First they swig and miss with raiders and now ANH. Sideshows hoth Han is pretty solid so maybe I'll just swap out the heads.

From Hot Toys Collectors. This proto's seen better days.

 

[jedijim3002]

I like it. Not screen accurate and very stylized but I like it.

 

[Rogerbee]

That looks like it was cast from the DX Indy!

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Yeah, it is a disappointing likeness - I really can't argue with that.

What's with that giant bottom lip anyway..

 

[Rogerbee]

Maybe the sculptor has a sideline in caricatures!?

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

I really like the old Ben, but that ain't a strong likeness either.

*WTF* HT!!?

Nothing of this sculpt says Harrison Ford, the eyes, nose, mouth nothing..... so sad

 

[Invictus Sol]

*WTF* HT!!?

So, you finally have accepted the truth. *Darth Vader breathing*

 

[marker2037]

These are some of the worst ones yet. That bottom lip on that proto is awful.

With that said, I still like a lot of the recent previous pics of him and I have faith that he's gonna get tweaked some more. I didn't order the Chewy set with him basically due to me not being sure he would come out as expected so I can still cancel if need be with no worries about any NRDs.

Good lord, Hot Toys... Somebody needs to remind them these aren't little cheap hasbro figures... Don't really appreciate paying this much for whoever the hell that is!
