I ended up taking off the belt for the Endor look. Not sure it's needed, you don't ever really see it in the movie and you can still also do the Jabba scenes without it.

I grabbed an extra pair of boots and clothes/body. There's basically 5 unique looks this figure can pull off, so it's nice to have two.

- Jabba's palace with robe
- Sail barge
- Sandstorm
- Endor
- DSII

This is the sixth look I always want to display.

Has anyone posed the Endor version on a SS Speederbike yet? I don?t think I?m going to be able to get the pose I want because of the fixed neck, which is a shame.

It's definitely not a shame hot toys didn't go for the exposed neck joint. That would uglify the figure for everything except riding the bike.
 
I?ve seen people is sideshow or hot toys Darth maul gloved right hands.

I painted a spray painted a Royal Guard glove. I didn't notice until I took this pic that I missed a couple tiny spots lol, but can't really see in normal light. This is a kitbash of the Sideshow parts and a generic black shirt.
 
Finally had the time to swap parts with V1 and V2 Jedi Luke and it's all true. The V1 head on the V2 body/outfit makes a bang on Death Star Jedi Luke. The V1 body/outfit works fine under the poncho for Endor Luke. A bit of a shame the V1 proportions and tailoring are not up to snuff with the V2 but combining the sets produces terrific results.

Really looking forward to getting the Leia and Wicket set now!

100% agree with your entire post.
 
I went ahead and got this because I had only wanted jedi luke for the final duel scene, so I decided to use version 1 for this look. I had originally cut out the fat suit, but the overall look was too baggy, but with the extra stuff on it looks fine

Does anyone know if the light saber hilt can be removed from the light up arm safely?

I've done it for a few of my figures, when wiring the lights up directly to an adapter. You first pop open the arm from the elbow, cut the wires at that end, and then carefully pry off the saber and pull the remaining wires out of the hand.

They have a resistor in the arm though, so you'll want to make sure to include one in the new wiring as well.

Any idea if the hand itself is a normal HT hand with a peg hole? Like, could you technically break/separate the hand off of the LED arm and have a gripping right hand for Luke if you have spare pegs?
 
Unfortunately while they started as normal HT hands, the holes have usually been widened too much for the regular wrist pegs to work with them anymore. You could always glue the pegs on of course, but then you'd lose some of the articulation.
 
Got a notification from SS that I am being charged this Friday. Looks like the the second batch is getting ready to be shipped out.
