1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars: Episode IV - Han Solo (Stormtrooper Disguise)

So it came today. Sculpt is better in person as per the usual so blah blah blah there. But the stormy armor on the extra tall han body is a bit awkward. Its noticibly short around the thighs and torso. Sorry if I'm bringing up an old discussion. Wonder why they went with such a tall body.

Ok Sideshow has just cancelled my order saying inventory miscalculation. They are giving me a refund. WTF I’ve never seen this before, what’s the point of preorder?

That makes no sense. They’re still in stock.

That is weird considering they don't even show it as low stock on the website.

I’ve just been in contact with them, they say that each region has limited quantities and that they have no more for my region, even though this was a day 1 preorder from me, any yes they still have stock.
Laughable isn’t it?

 

[NDSam]

I would be pissed that's crazy.

I had that happen on the Baroness statue. First thing I had bought with their payment plan, and after I made the last payment and they said it was shipping I got an email and a refund. Really put me off on their pay plans for awhile.

I'm sure there are collectors here that would be happy to help you if you can't get ahold of him through other means. Feel free to send me a PM if you have no luck via Popcultcha or eBay.

That’s the alternate purchase one in the middle for those that are curious

It’s the eyes on the new sculpt that make a difference imo. Looks more like Ford than the original.

Sorry if I missed this. I got a new short HS stormy neck peg. In regards to the head swap
- all I need to do is put the new short peg on the ANH Han and do the head swap? The regular head will just snap on to the stormy body?
confused because I read somewhere that some folks are just sitting the stormy head on top of the ANH Han but pegless.

Just swapping the short and long neck pegs works. Simple as that.

Doctor Steel, I love your wife.

Are these stormy neck pegs sold somewhere? Trying to get my smuggler head on.

One member a few pages back just removed the neck peg and sat the head peg-less and it looked very good.

Found it...

Switched out the head on the smuggler body. Better than I expected. Excuse the pics as they were taken by my phone.

I will never understand the initial hate for this sculpt. I love this figure.
