Seems to always happen! Mini freak out at beginning of figure launch and then as the better pics come drizzling in, it's freaking awesome.
Still just doesn't look old enough to me to be Guinness in ANH. Looks more like a 40-something man who had old age makeup applied to him.
Although the shots with the hood up do seem to help sell the likeness a bit better...

Hood up is a must for me when displaying him.
Looks about the same as before guess they didnt do any impovements, probably why its out so early. Unfortunately i am getting hulk next month and cant afford both at once. Wish this had stayed for november. Still i will just have to get him in november then, would like to see more pictures how the lighted saber.

Alec Guinness had a distinctive face. You know it when you see it, but in all these fancy photos Alec isn't there. 
Maybe it's there in hand.
I look at HT's Michael Caine as Alfred and wish they could have captured the same level of likeness with Alec.

BEAUTIFUL...
More holy....
As with HT Han, he looks really good in higher-contrast lighting. In the softer, brighter photo above, he looks a little Asian and younger. The harsher light (and the dark pics) seems to catch the wrinkles and make him look older and bring out Ben.
I think I'm going to wait until Paramore's pics show up, but it's definitely a gorgeously detailed and painted sculpt. The likeness is slightly hit-and-miss, but hood-up is probably the best detolf pose anyway, and that looks pretty great in the pics we've seen.

I've never had a problem with the sculpt and still don't. It may not be absolutely spot on but I see Guiness there. It especially looks good in the more low light pictures. I think most of these figures don't look their best with lighting shined right on them honestly. Always have to roll my eyes at people who make comments like they can't tell it's supposed to be the actor the figure is portraying at all.
