Is it likely (or possible) that the tailoring on Luke's jedi outfit will be better in this set than in the previous release? Would HT improve the tailoring or will it be the same as before?
I think it is highly possible because this was the description when the original gallery was posted on the Hot Toys Facebook page:
Beautifully crafted based on the appearance of Luke Skywalker on Endor in the final installment of the original trilogy, the new Luke Skywalker collectible figure features a newly developed head sculpt, greatly detailed costume with refined tailoring, the helmet and camouflage cloak Luke wore on Endor, a LED light-up lightsaber, an interchangeable lightsaber blade emulating the weapon in motion, a blaster, and a themed figure stand.

Strangely enough, that part isn't on the official description on Sideshow's page. I have a feeling they will tweak it a little though.
It’s ridiculous they still didn’t include a gloved saber holding hand that isn’t the interchangeable light-up version.Yep! That's exactly what I was excited about and pushed me to PO this. But I have to say I am disappointed with the lack of a gloved lightsaber gripping hand, even though they include a gloved hand to grip the blaster (though that never happened in the film).
V2 always > V1
Dont believe? Close this tab and check Sith Ani vs regular Ani threads for the comparisons.
Got a reply from Hot Toys regarding my inquiry for the gloved saber holding hand. It seemed like a generic response though. It just said my comment will be forwarded to the production team for reference.
I just don’t understand why they wouldn’t include it twice. The first release I thought they were marketing more as a Jabba’s Palace Luke, which in that case he didn’t have the glove yet so even though I was bothered by it I kinda understood.Should have replied that their production team should just rewatch the film. That should be enough reference.
