1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 283 - Star Wars Episode IV: 1/6th scale Obi-Wan Kenobi

[Rorywan]

Okay got him today. First impressions are he looks great in hand and on the shelf, sculpt i have no issues with right from the start i was fine with it. There are a couple things that do annoy me. First is the robe, while it hangs VERY well and is very thin it has that feel and im not sure what material it is but its a pain in the ass to futz because it seems to stick to your fingers. Secondly the tunic that wraps around the neck is just too thick imo. Thirdly the swap out arm, everytime you move the arm is pops out and drives me batty.

Overall im glad to finally have Old ben on my shelf and there is no doubt i much prefer it to sideshow's but as stated by someone else sideshow's inner tunic pips HT to the post.

Not had much picture time and i originally wasn't going to post any but here is one slightly futzed.

If you don't like the sculpt, please don't quote my post with a picture of someone else it looks like.**waves hand** Just go about your business and move along

Looks superb.
And great pose and futzing. I bet you will see every other Obi-wan owner copying your pose.

 

[Rainpaulo]

I think it looks absolutely fantastic
Wasnt going to start on the Star Wars line but may bend for this.

He looks great Stealth, looking forward to seeing some more of your pictures..

Looks good Stealth, thanks for posting.

Looks great stealth, thanks for the thoughts and pic

that pic is superb, sir.

Great (and suffered as we can see) patience with the futzing!

cheers fellas. If any of you in here have a diecast iron man, use the screwdriver for the saber hand. The saber is nice and bright in person. I just dislike how they did it, there is no up or down movement to the hand just rotation, kills some poses for me.

Looks great, nice pose thanks for posting

hmmm, I was thinking when i got him of posing him without the cloak but it hangs so nice and may hide some of the trouble of the inner robes perhaps I may not

These guys are looking to be upgraded...

(yikes... need to dust too )

Well he does look a bit like.... wait.. having trouble thinking... must move along...

Much as I don't want to say this, 'pass' - great figure, but with only barely passable likeness to the actor

I had no idea this figure had a light up feature, was that mentioned anywhere?

Seems like they would have promoted that more And I guess this means all of the figures with lightsabers would also light up... seems a waste if they didn't. Although Sideshow only did that once and we got thick-ass saber and a half-lit blade

You'll kick yourself if you pass.









We're not likely to see a better James Coburn for a long time.

Bon!
I like it. But I also liked Bespin Luke so maybe my eye isn't as critical. I can see that the hoods of his eyes may be a little heavy but it still looks like Obi Wan to me.

That there is Alec Guiness as Kenobi. Looks amazing. Can't wait for mine to arrive.

 

[SithThundercracker]

Love it. Great futzing!

 

[Cixx]

Looks great! Agree about tunic.

First time I've seen this look like Kenobi.

I don't know what it is about your magical detolf but it results in the most amazing photos. Bravo!

 

[TonTon]

This figure like the SS Hoth figures benefits from some shadowing around the eyes. I'm pretty sure I'd be happy with that on my shelf. Will still try and hold out for a 20% off code--maybe around the time of TFA.

The shadows definitely bring out the Guinness likeness much more.

There is Hope...
