You have to pop the Dx 07 adapter off of the body. Then the rubber grommet inside that head will fit on the neck post left behind.
 
If you pop off this piece you will have this left.

I called the rubber adapter that’s on the inside of the Luke head a “grommet”. The “barbell”neck peg on the inside of the body I just call a ball joint.
 
Did you get the neck adapter off the body?
Not yet. I will definitely give it a go tomorrow though and post a picture.

Oh ok. I am pretty ignorant (obviously) when it comes to the proper names for these figure parts. 😆
 
bit annoying the gun doesn't quite work with the gloved hand
To be fair, he never actually held a blaster when he was in the gloved outfit.

Can anyone else with both Snowspeeder Luke and TCW Maul confirm they share gloved hands?

I saw that pointed out elsewhere. But after I heard that, I realized that’s probably why @jimbean said the pistol doesn’t fit Luke’s hand well since Maul’s hands weren’t made with a blaster in mind.

Tricky but a little unfortunate bit of parts reuse by Hot Toys for an otherwise superb figure.

Yes, and no. Same mold, but they've laid some texture over it for the Luke hands.

I'm really not a huge fan of HT's gloved hand sculpts, but these are fine I guess. They may be the Finse thicker style (vs the studio shoot style in the HT figure) but I prefer the SSC Luke Snowsp gloved hand sculpts.
 
Bad news for those who preordered this from popcultcha:

"looks like there's a delay at the supplier as they've pushed their ship date back to Q3 of 2022, meaning anywhere between July-September it might ship out from the supplier."


So likely won't ship from PC itself until Sept/Oct? Wow.:horror
