I just read over on statueforum that James stated in his livestream that Disney were restrictive on the changes that were allowed on the sculpt and even more baffling than that - they supplied JND with a colour chart for the pants which JND had to stick to. Someone should fire the person at Disney who put that colour chart together!
If I was just someone who was shouting about their color being wrong based on looking at the movie and photos alone, I wouldn't have much in my defence. However, I've got pieces of the ACTUAL fabric used to make Harrison's pants from Last Crusade, so I THINK that should be good enough provenance to know what I'm talking about. Oh well, it's far too late in the game to expect any improvements, so we're stuck with this horrible Disney controlled inaccurate version now.
I can't quite get my brain to grasp why Disney would want to restrict making the sculpt BETTER. Complete madness. Having now seen the head without the hat on, it's an absolute mess. WAY too elongated and thin and nothing like Ford's head / face proportions. So disappointing. (Unless the photo I saw suffered from horrendous lens distortion).
