Huh...... Whut hmmm
They had the prototype at SDCC.
Actually, wait. You meant Hot Toys. Sorry. You weren't remotely clear.
Unless the previous picture is Hot toys prototype then you must not know what HT means.

Thanks for the pix Rubio, can't give you any rep so how about a hug? 
Some people were wondering if the boots would be in 2 parts for better articulation and from this picture it looks like it is. Did you notice?

Grabbed a couple shots yesterday. I tried to get up under the visor to see more of the face sculpt. Wasn't happening lol!
Have at it (+rep appreciated!)
No worries, Rocko!
I figured there'd be an explosion of pics of this fig over the weekend. I guess not. But I hope mine help. And yes, the boots (at this time, at least) are one-piece.
And thanks for the love across threads, Outlander!

The only real grip I guess that I'd have at the moment, is the jumpsuit colour; it's a tad pastel in tone.

I'd give some leeway to anything color related on these figures due to the mixed lighting around the display. The overhead lights and LEDs inside the display will cause a lot of problems trying to white-balance most photos.

Yeah, fair point. I thought of that after I posted actually.
Correct. The LEDs that were used to illuminate the figures had a slightly bluish tint.
When i take photos at booths like that, I never, ever use flash, and I don't try to color-correct the photos in post-processing, either.
The results may have an ever-so-slight blue coloring.

I will upload pics, while the tailoring and paint apps look good, likeness for me isn't there, pics to follow!

You can really see the LED color cast in the boots. If it were only the LEDs with a cool temp it would be easy to correct, but the problems are compounded by the overhead lighting which I don't believe matches the LEDs at all. Multiple different light sources are a killer problem to deal with in pre or post. I gave it a go in Lightroom with some improvement, but I can tell it wasn't perfect.
Is this Hot Toys Prototype?

Clearly not, as the flight suit is not made out of high quality RUBBER!
The helmet "clam shells" over his head according to Sideshow rep.

Yes...I heard that too....the seam would be covered by the raised center part....very ingenious these SS people are! By doing this they only need one head which should keep the cost down.

I like this idea. Can't wait to see/hear more about this figure.
