Preordered the deluxe. Hope Endor Leia isn’t too far behind. Now just want Endor Han, and a few ewoks and I’ll be happy.

Luke has a real Mr. Robot creep factor in that deleted scene.

"See ya back at the fleet." lol

Eager to see the usual JC Hong pictures of the painted sculpt so I can imagine a softer, simpler looking prod piece.

What's with those weird teeth??? Its like some inner beak.

I always like eyes to the side though.

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

Not sure Wicket needed an evil twin - he was cute-reepy even in 1983.

Yeah I think the problem might be less with the mouth than with the placement of the teeth inside.

Be fine if they just didn't paint the teeth.

Is that the same sculpt as the MMS429, just looking to the side? Or is it a new sculpt? I was under the impression it was the former, but I don’t think the MMS429 has the mouth fully open to where the two separate rows of teeth are spaced apart.

Just ordered Endor Luke version, have zero interest for Deluxe.

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).

I hope so. Been waiting for that one.

Anyone else waiting for Popcultcha to list theirs? Their recent handling and delays doesn't have me too optimistic so I might have to cop the abhorrent international shipping costs from elsewhere.

The new head looks extremely weird. I would probably take the Jedi cloak over all this new stuff, if I were to buy either (I won't).

It's the same sculpt, just different eye paint. I prefer the MMS429 one myself. You can kinda see it in this pic, I think the mouth just looks different depending on lighting.

I prefer the MMS429 sculpt as well. I feel the eyes looking to one side limits posing options.

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.

Awesome comment. I agree with you 100%. "I was comfortable with that because I'm a moron." "Yes, I'll buy both." Just hilarious. And I can totally relate....

100%. I know many think HT's figures have a tendency to look dead when the eyes are straight on, but at least there are a lot of posing options. With the DX head he'll have to be turned 70 degrees the entire time if I want it to look good lol. I plan on selling that off and trying to pick up the original sculpt if I can... or like I mentioned, just buying the MMS429 as a whole.

I've been searching for a speeder bike all day lol.

Sideshow seems to have plenty of speeder bikes....

True. I should probably reiterate, looking for a good deal on a speeder bike all day lol. Not sure I wanna spend $350 on one. Just checked the sold listings on eBay and it looks like some sold in just the last couple months for $250-ish. Missed my chance!

Guess I could always try painting one of the Hasbro/Kenner ones if I want it a bit cheaper. This person did a pretty decent job with theirs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E7yDCxBNzvs
