Woah! Crait Luke, Leia and Han look great together!
I feel like I'm the only one who's really bothered by those footprints on the base that shouldn't be there.
Got this today. I think it?s pretty good. I agree with others that a few more wrinkles in the sculpt would have been nice. Here are some phone pics
The indents?
They shouldn't be any red or footprints since Luke didn't leave footprints on Crait.
I like it! Nice flex user!Well.
First of all, we can all agree he was never on Crait, right?
The base has indents for his feet(Not red marks MADE by his feet though).
We all know that?s because Hot Toys reused the sand base.
But, I put it to you, if he?s projecting himself onto another planet, he could have projected footprints.
I?m not apologising for the base.
Just giving you a way to live with it, lol.
He arrived today. I think he looks fantastic. I might try another pose with his lightsaber.

I suppose, but I just think it would have looked a lot cooler if they had replicated how it actually looked in the movie, with him almost gliding over the surface.
And if you want to get technical, even Kylo didn't leave any indents like that, as the salt was much thinner on top than HT made it.

I guess if we're already going out on all these limbs here we can talk about the time in Which Master Skywalker was actually on Crait...I never understand this point - he "doesn't leave footprints" but casts a shadow? In the top image, his right foot (heel area) clearly appears to be casting a shadow, so we were supposed to pick up that as a clue that he wasn't really there, but ignore the shadow which you'd think proves he is?
You could believe maybe he had some sort of special boot soles that don't disturb the snow/salt much or something, but casting a shadow would be pretty conclusive proof of someone not being there - yet they rendered one in.
It's especially obvious because they chose to use a setting sun backdrop - a gloomy midday might have hidden shadows better.

While we're on Dark Empire, I believe the force projection was featured in one of those issues as well. I image this panel is where Rian got his inspiration for the dreadnought as well.
