There are plenty of good photos in the Hoth Han thread that capture Harrison's likeness fairly well. Shadowing out the eyes, the figure looks good. Unfortunately, it's not going to look that way sitting on a shelf. Pretty disappointed as I had plans to buy it. With that, I cancelled the Indy figure.....for now. I want to see it in-hand first before dropping $200 plus on it. $200 for a figure that you feel like you can just live with is a lot of money. Those days are over.

Looks screen accurate! :lol


But this is what Sideshow are calling their "Final Production" hatless Han sculpt:

Would they lie to us? :pray:
 
uploadfromtaptalk1425019495899.jpgCan only hope SS are using a different factory to produce the Indy sculpt :\ Hoth Han with hood up, goggles on and scarf over his face looks like the best display option for it to be screen accurate ;) Glad I passed on this one.
 
Yeah... I guess this means wait for in-hand pics on Indy now.:dunno

I'm still buying Han Hoth so will have the in-hand experience though.:panic::lol
 
They new eye system Sideshow is using still has a long way to go, but those new Hoth Han pictures that have popped up really should not be the basis of your decision to keep your pre orders. Those photos are of terrible quality with serious lens distortion and bad lighting.

I'm not saying you will be happy with the end result, but it definitely will not look like those photos. All I'm saying is don't base your decision on this set of photos.

All I can see is a poor likeness under clear lighting, rather than SS attempt to hide it with shadows / low lighting.

That's also a terribly distorted picture. If you're going to cancel, at least look at a true representation of what the figure looks like:

Here are two pics for now will done detolf shots in a short while

wanted to get the sculpt in as much daylight as i could...i think its great

They may not be of the un-hatted head, but you can see the facial proportions better.
 
I'm sticking to my guns on this one. I don't like the eyes on the Hoth Han. Everything else looks nice, but I'm disappointed in it. I'm not buying it. Will Sideshow knock the Indy out of the park? I hope so. I want it, but I can wait to see how it turns out. If I like it, I'll buy it. Not ripping on Sideshow. Personally I don't like the way the HT Han looks either. For now, I don't plan on buying that one either.

The eyes are all different in the figures we have seen so far. From absolutely dismal to acceptable. Some eyeholes look like they were cut with a nail scissors. For over $200? I think not.

Just wait, don't pre-order. Cancel if you already have ordered. That will make them fix the eye issue. Then they can fix it and reveal a final product that might actually do justice to their sculpting talents. Then it will sell out for them
 
I can't get over the eye system. What color are they anyway? Does ford have blue eyes?

I think the sculpt and likeness are great, but those eyes really throw it off. They need a repaint badly.
