It may not be a perfect likeness, but it's still a good looking figure...

I Love mine too!
The weird thing is this fig looks just like one of my college professors, so it feels very "mentor" for me regardless.

Great ANH display.
I actually thought it was a pic of one of the HT display cases from a show/con.

That’s an awesome ANH display.

Your college professor was Obi-Wan? That’s awesome!

I believe it was Jnix himself.
Hope he re-releases that one day.

Sorry for spamming this thread but something is wrong with my FS thread. I have an Obi Wan that has been displayed. $230 I need him GONE. Thanks
Not sure if it’s just me, but I don’t see the “premium freak” banner below your name, meaning your sale thread will have been deleted when your premium membership ran out.
Pretty psyched as I didn’t think I’d get a chance at this Jnix sculpt again after passing on it initially. Need to get a neck adapter to attach it to the body.

yeah i still like mine i think it looks great.
I still think the old Sideshow Ben sculpt is the best ever done (though it obviously needs a repaint and is slightly oversized) but the level of sculpt detail Jnix did on that Ben is really astounding. That pic/lighting really shows it pretty nicely.

The Jnix sculpt is awesome! I wasn’t convinced when I first saw it, and I actually passed on the initial run, but fortunately I was able to pick one up on the secondary market.

Jnix’s best sculpt in my opinion. I personally was never a fan of the Han or Luke ones.
I like it but it also has a "little boy" look about it too - something about the way the features are distributed on the face that isn't quite right (maybe eyes/mouth too close together and face a bit flat looking, or simply that the eyes and mouth are too small for the size of head) even if it looks good overall. The Luke had a similar issue where it had a really good Hamil vibe but the eyes were set oddly in relation to the face.
The slightly distorted close-up above makes the eyes and mouth appear bigger in relation to the head than in the wider shot and seems to fix it, so maybe that is it.
He did a great job with the beard and hair. While the old Sideshow one still is the only bullseye to me likeness-wise, as well as being oversized it has a lack of sculpt detail that feels dated and this one really does a nice job in that department.
