Sorry if am late to the party but............What the **** is this release????????????????????????????????? Can I have my money back for the other one now please? I feel duped and cheated. Collectibles my ass. Please remove Collectible from the threads title, these definitely aren't collectibles anymore
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS- Episode VI ROTJ Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure (DELUXE VERSION

Even with 2 overweight Luke’s, I was all aboard the Endor version. Now, not so much. I do not like the tooth sculpt at all. The windy hair is a fail. I’ll get the deluxe and use the regular rotj sculpt with the poncho. Overall a very underwhelming release.
I’m not ordering until it is released and has some kind of a sale. Same with maul and his speeder. With these prices, it’s not worth paying full price plus sideshow’s Rip off shipping prices. Very few figures sell out anymore.

lol let's be real dude, "collectibles" basically just means "premium priced figure/prop" now. With figures a release can be the cream of the crop for 5-6 years before a better version comes along, and no one cares about the old one. There's nothing like the figures from the 70s coming out now that will actually be collectible long term, especially with Star Wars items. To me, the collectible aspect is "do I value it in my personal collection". None of this stuff is going to be worth a fraction of what it is now is 10 years. There will be newer, better versions.

Also, I’m not mad about the double dipping with this figure. We all knew it would happen once the Endor Luke was shown. It is a simple reissue cash grab. I was comfortable with that because I’m a moron.
It’s the crappy head sculpts that bother me. Why do the marvel sculpts always seem better?

Also, when will we get the reissue neutral face palpatine and bespin escape leia?
Those are easy cash grabs we all know are inevitable.
Yes, I’ll buy both.

Yeah, the huge forehead does look like a shaved and de-aged version of the Crait figure, not like a young Luke.



Yeah, the Tooth Skywalker look was problematic in the proto but for some reason the teeth look even more prominent in these latest pics.



Not sure they pulled off the windswept barge hair very well here - though I imagine it's hard to sculpt.



Sounds like the upcoming ST Ewok that is old Lando's sidekick.:lol

"He's like Wicket... but different..."

Don’t you know Widget? He’s Wicket’s evil twin. Lol. Typing too fast and then autocorrect got me.

I wonder if Endor Leia is still in the cards. They haven’t been showing her recently (seems like the Bespin gown version took her place).
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS- Episode VI ROTJ Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure (DELUXE VERSION

I want his sail barge battle look with the wind swept hair, and I want his Endor look so I have no problem getting both version 1 and the new deluxe set for my display.

Well - it seems like the most viable look for them to release from ROTJ. Also - it would go really well with Endor Luke. Maybe they would complete the diorama with the speeder bike and the scout trooper.

They certainly look great with one another although I'd prefer some more weathering on Leia's costume.

I actually don’t think the gritted teeth sculpt is as bad as most think it is personally. I feel it looks better from certain angles than straight on.

And it’s great for dynamic posing. I like it.
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS- Episode VI ROTJ Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure (DELUXE VERSION

Great comparison here, you can clearly see the difference. HTs figure looks more like Tom Welling rather than Luke Skywalker in this pic.

Great comparison pic. yeah you need the wide eyed look to capture a young Hamill. What are the odds this sculpt gets reworked?
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS- Episode VI ROTJ Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure (DELUXE VERSION

I've been looking through the pics from ROTJ and can't seem to find a definitive answer. Anyone know if sandstorm Luke had his vest on underneath the face/necl cloak he was wrapped in? He had it on during the sail barge scenes, but I can't tell from the footage. Same question on the Endor Pancho? He had the vest on later when he was taking with Leia but can't tell if he was vested under the Pancho.

Yes, the vest was under the sand storm rags cloak.

Re: Hot Toys -MMS- Episode VI ROTJ Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure (DELUXE VERSION

Are there two sculpts with this? Because the main picture on their site for this figure, I coudn't tell who it was supposed to be (I didn't look at the name of the figure, I wanted to see if I could guess, and I usually can, but that main picture doesn't look like Hamill). But some of the other pictures of the figure do look like him - about half do and half don't. Very strange. Also, it looks like this one maybe has the moving eye system? Seems like they have a harder time making some figures look like the actor when it has that.

Two sculpts- took me a while to figure it out also. lol

I ordered the deluxe. Bring on Leia so these dopey Endor Rebels I e had for ten years will finally look good.
 
Re: Hot Toys -MMS- Episode VI ROTJ Luke Skywalker Collectible Figure (DELUXE VERSION

I must say, I'm a little taken aback by the price tag.... considering much of this taken from the previous release. Like many here, I think I'll wait until I accumulate more rewards until I order.

Seems strange to me... usually any Luke Skywalker figures are first day pre-orders for me.

Like Wor Gar said, there will be plenty of Lukes this next fall.

So no rush.

I'm also surprised how long we will have to wait for the figure as well. I thought it would be more like the Dark Side Anakin and how quickly he was released along with the regular Anakin.
