Few quick pics, really impressed by the sculpt, it's alot better in person like most have said.
Quick review:
Paint 8/10
Paintjob is kind of mixed. The face and skin are fantastic. Hot Toys level, if not better. The eyes are a bit too stern but very well painted, again Hot Toys quality. The hair however is one color of brown which makes you not see ANY of the impressive detail on the sculpt, which brings it from a 9/10 overall to a 7,5/10 for me, this is the only part that isn't Hot Toys quality. All they had to do it drybrush some highlights. One minor quibble is that the rubber neck/torso doesnt quite match his face.
Sculpt 9/10
Sculpt is terrific. The expression is one that works well for posing, and isn't nearly as evil looking as the prototype pictures, it's quite a determined expression though, so if you like Han smiling, this ain't the one for you (thought he does have a véry slight smile). The hair is actually not nearly as bad as pictures make it seem, it is Hot Toys in quality ( lots of strands of hair ) but you don't see any of it because of the flat paint job. It is a bit too big though, about 10%. Though after looking at reference pics you can't really blame them.

The hands are well done as well. The likeness is 9/10. I don't see Hot Toys topping this one in terms of likeness.

Outfit 7/10
Medicom. Pretty good, but the plastic belt is ugly. Besides that it's Sideshow quality. The blaster is the ANH version which is quite baffling lol. It is however well painted and sculpted. The breather is something I will never use, nor is the coat, which has a weird yellowish color. No biggy because I don't like the coat look.
Body 8/10
Everything is excellent however he is thin around the waist, needs serious padding. Not AT ALL small like most medicom, fits right in with the other brands.
Overall I'm very happy with him, I give him an 8/10, the enterbay paint on the face and the sculpting make up for the medicom aspects.
Touched up his eyes, made his pupils slightly larger. Looks better imo, less angry more Solo.
EDIT:
God this is a good likeness.
