I used to feel tinfoil-hatty thinking they miss the mark on purpose, but it's reaching that point.

All of the talented artists gets assigned to Iron Man, Spider-Man and what ever else sells the most. This one was done by the intern…
Did the Empire have a "Take Your Kid To Work Day"? That helmet looks more oversized than the one Jake Lloyd wore in TPM lol...

Unfortunately this counts towards the only 2-3 OT figures in a year situation. Last year was only endor han, esb Chewbacca, and a repacked stormtrooper (not counting the gloriously overpriced sideshow aliens). With rots anniversary
i think it’s deliberate. Make a good to very good to maybe great figure that they can revisit and improve upon. They know us suckers will double dip. Look at maul! Watch the scout trooper get a good 2.0 in a few years with the correct helmet. It is not a good business plan to make perfect figures.
And the slim waist is back.
...and a skinny girl belt.

I still have the Sideshow one on display...
...and it still holds up really well. The HT one does have a few issues. Those hideous boots, the thin limbs. The helmet does read a bit big in the photos. Wonder if the often-loathed "fat suit" could actually help the proportions here. As it looks, the flight suit is a little too form-fitting, with the slim base body appearing too slight and throwing the final look off even more.
It will be interesting to see if any adjustments are made here before production & release.
