Hot Toys ROTJ Emperor Palpatine

[FlyAndFight]

I don't get the hate for the Battlefront Emperor, for me the likeness is spot on and if Hot Toys Headsculpt looked like that I would be happy!

This is definitely one figure that would benefit with having a second head sculpt. A serious angry one is needed as well.

When Kotobukiya can do a more accurate likeness in 1/10th, methinks HT better start from scratch on their POS head sculpt, especially for what they'll charge us for it..

Yeah Hot Toys attempt at this figure is appalling! But that's probably why it's not gone up for PO yet cause they know it's so bad!

That Kotobukiya Emperor is insanely good, especially in 1/10. Seems long gone are the times when Koto were not that good at sculpting faces

With this moody lighting he looks better than in previous shots, but I'm still not completely sold. He does look pretty good in that first shot standing upright.
Will probably wait for him to be released and see some in hand shots before I pull the trigger.
