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

[Matt S]

What part?

most of the time: dallas; now kerrville - outside San Antonio. Miss Dallas a bit. Nice area, but still can't get used to the two lane HWYs in parts of TX. LOL. Texas has a lot of things to love. Wish it had mountains. Could you imagine TX with a damn mountain? LOL...OMG, that's like my double rainbow thought of the night!!!

I agree its Star Wars but I'm ok with the version I have. Worse case scenario I buy this HS, slap it on the SSC body

and call it a day..............

Like I said earlier, if I didn't already own the SS version I would buy the Hot Toys version. Now bring on Leia....

Ok, hold the phone: that is a re-cast? No way it ships with that paint job, right?

I completely agree, now wheres Leia

Well, I don't disagree with that.

Looks like we got off topic here, lol

@QuiGonFishing.......Every collector is going to have their own opinion, but at the end of the day your the one that has to live with it. Good luck on which ever route you decide....

 

[Matt S]

Well Said.....let us know, I'll be curious as to what you decide....

I tool the elements I liked best from both versions and bashed together something I love.

And i think that's great you are happy with the version you have. It's probably SS best human figure ever. No shame in liking/owning it.

I'm just saying (to anyone) if you think you may want to own the HT and have the means to get it for retail...get it for retail NOW.. before you no longer have that option.

I am not a good photographer and my camera is pretty sucky, but here goes:

My custom Ben. HT narrow, HT Ben fat suit, HT hands and hooded robe, HT stand. Sideshow boots, pants, belt, shirt, inner robe and tunic, and head sculpt (repainted by Skiman).

 

[Matt S]

Nice pic; gets the job done. So, its a SSC head, clearly....Looks repainted. What robe is that? The robe looks good. HT robe and did you darken it?..and the shoes = SSC?

 

[Texas Finest]

Thanks for the pics bud,

Great custom.....

 

[pixletwin]

Thanks Matt and Texas. Robe is HT. Shoes are SSC. Correct. The photo makes it look like his eyes are painted differently, but they are not. One is just catching the light in a weird way.

is it the right one? in this pic, it actually looks like he is pretty focused.......People can say they want about the SSC production paint issues, they do know how to make some nice looking clothing. And yeah, realize the robe isn;t there, I kinda want to put my HT OLD BEN with the SSC Sith Anakin Robe....

 

[pixletwin]

Yeah, the right.

Works to the pic's advantage, ironically. And I am learning that the way something photographs is very different than seeing it in person. Thanks for the pic! One of these days, I'll get my repainted one down and out

Matt S,

Just read your blog in the other thread and..................

 

[Matt S]

sorry about that,,,

 

[r3dPyramid]

Just got charged for my Obi-wan! Should be here soon, pretty stoked.

 

[generalgrevious]

where can you find these batteries for the light up arms so I can replace them. and what size are these

 

[Matt S]

Radio Shack is my guess.......

Like Matt said, Radio Shack.

Although small, the battery type should be slightly engraved on the back. If you can't find it or are unable to read it, bring one of the batteries with you to Radio Shack and I'm sure the rep can find you a replacement.
