Looks like I'll probably be doing some of the same things...I'll make my current (fat suit) Luke my Endor Luke, since the poncho will cover the body anyway, and ill make my Endor Luke the Death Star version, since he doesn't have anything else covering him.

Regardless of all that...I'm loving all the looks I've seen from the current images and Justin's videos. Just an all around great figure. Dec 5 (final payment) can't get here soon enough!
 
This is the best I have ever seen.... But is custom and expensive

Yeah I might try the same as well. I already modded my first Luke and took in the outfit quite a bit, but couldn't do much about the baggy arms and shoulders, so if that is improved like it appears to be then that would be a much better outfit for a Death Star Luke.
 
Saw Justin's very good review. Though I wish he had compared the head sculpts more but from what I saw was a marked improvement on the new version. It looks like last year's version is missing a wash and just lacks detail. I have wanted a ROTJ Luke figure for so long and was so disappointed by the sculpt when I got it last year. I didn't sell because the robe is gorgeous and enough to hide the face.

Like a lot of people, I am angry at Hot Toys for double-dipping. This should have all been part of one package. However, like everyone else, I am too weak to do anything about it. I am going to have to get this new version. Finally, some likeness to Hamill and the lack of fat suit is perfect.

I may just sell the original without the cape or keep him for some other scene.
 
Great to see fat suit was removed. Would have been even more perfect with a gloved lightsaber hand (Sorry for constantly griping over this LOL), but I'm satisfied with this release. The angry, bared teeth Luke looks perfect for the Endor Helmet look, but not any of the rest, and as I have the previous release, I'm using that body for the Endor look. His Death Star II look will be perfect with the body from this release.

The lack of a full arsenal of gloved hands is indeed maddening. I was expecting a double dip on Jedi Luke but I wasn't expecting a lack of lightsaber holding hands :gah:

I am however thrilled that this release comes with both sabers.
 
Ridiculous that this has the thinner body and we got stuck with fat suit luke on the previous version. I will use this as my Death Star 2 luke and use my fat luke for Endor gear. Are changing the boots an easy swap or is it a pain? The Endor version has green on the boots.

What? It's great that hot toys constantly keeps looking for ways to improve their figures.

I agree. It's great that HT is improving things but if you have a perfectionist streak this hobby is crazy.

I do wonder at times if the 'improvements' are deliberately planned to get us all wanting to buy essentially the same figure again.
 
I’d prefer “Hey, that guy looks like Mark Hamill” over “Hey, is that guy supposed to be Mark Hamill?”
