Ben, wake up! There's a zombie in your cloak and he's gonna choke you!
Those hands look a bit mummified.
They're also a different colour to his face.
From the pictures I've seen your sabers look really good! Definately going to need one of those for my eventual Darth Vader.

This is a beautiful figure, and I think all of the Hot Toys heroes together will look stellar; that said the likeness isn't quite there. Typically of Hot Toys, it's a touch idealized, he looks a little young in some shots...these are nitpicks. If I was in the market for Obi Wan I'd buy it. Congrats to those who get this, I think it'll be a fantastic display piece. Nice to finally see some shots of the released figure.

Like 20-30 years too young.

Good point about the HT saber design looking like they borrowed from SSC.
If it looks cool in the end, who cares. That said, I might give you a buzz for one of those CC sabers one day PP.

The head sculpt is completely off. It looks nothing like Alec Guinness.

I don't see anything wrong with it, sure its not perfect but what is these days. It looks like obi wan and looks like Sir Alec which is good enough for me. I can't to get it later this week. The saber also doesn't look HUGE for the light up, granted i'll never use it besides pics. The saber was pretty clunky in size anyway

Yes please bring on Drax so all the little bitchers and moaners will get their 6th rate comic figure and finally be quiet. Cause god knows Drax is way more known and popular than Obi Wan Kenobi.

Greatest contrast comes comparing the two regular loose hilts to the one integrated with the hand. The loose ones look somewhat like the prop, and the one in the hand looks like Mag Light Flashlight that your friendly neighborhood cop will beat you down with (US only).

I think the robes need dipped in a washbath and scuffed, they are way too clean. Adding some white paint to his face will really help with the aging. He looks so much younger I think due to not enough pronounced white coloring.
The sculpt is there I think, this time to me HT's paint is somewhat failing a bit. And the wrinkly hands are freaking me a bit.

Can't say it looks that big from pictures, your sabers are superior. It certainly doesn't bother me though as i'll only ever use the loose hilt, only thing that turns me off cathode is all the wiring to hide just for a photo op, so the HT effort will do for me.

If you want only a photo-op, in the case of this figure, it's easier and will look better to just take a photo with one of the regular hilts in hand and add the lighting effects via Photoshop. That's how almost every lit saber image of him has already been done.

Obi-Wan has some freakishly large feet.
