Yes, that's very nice... boots look excellent and a nice chrome to the lightsaber.

Dare I say that Sideshow is putting out better prototype SW figures than Hot Toys :huh
 
Sculpt is looking good.

Looks good, but an easy pass.

Im liking both to be honest. SSC stepped up there game though.
 
Maul looks great.

HT is too hung up on ANH, it's irritating.

I'm actually glad they're sticking with one film at a time... and OT is always better than PT. But they did also just debut the 1/6 ROTJ Fett and at CVII they had (for some unexplained reason) a 1/4 ROTS Armored Vader.
 
I want Bespin Han, Jedi Luke, Endor Chewie, Palpatine, ROTJ Vader... It's good for the folks that want the entire line, but other than Han, I don't want any version from ANH. The waiting continues I guess.
 
That's a bad a$$ sculpt! Pretty long horns for TPM though. Maybe we will see the mechno legs.

Very true... those are very long, maybe you're onto something. Although I'd hate if they split the difference between the two and end up with a head that doesn't really work for either one :lol

Looking great, very impressed by the base figure. Hoping to see something like this as a second portrait.

I'd love to see them revisit ROTS Obi-Wan, it's my favorite look of the character but the original just suffered from portrait problems. The sculpt's pretty good but the bead doesn't quite look as natural as they could get it today, and the paint was just so heavy it washed out a lot of detail and softened a pretty good sculpt.
 

I was hoping they were similar to Padawan Kenobi....two piece for better/more extreme posing possibilities. We'll see I guess...


I think Maul looks great...Ray Park is a pretty compact guy, and this version might reflect that a bit more than V1 did.

LOVE that wall section!

AT-AT Driver looks pretty cool...as does TIE Pilot...two TIE Pilots flanking Vader on display would be pretty awesome...

Jawa, more droids....nice sixth-scale line up so far for SW, Sideshow...good variety!

I think it's more Sideshow just tending to be on the bigger side, but this time around they're better overall shaped and proportioned, the first figure had the shapes perfect but it was as though the sculptor couldn't get that and go smaller so they're pretty bulky looking.

Wow...that side-by-side of the portraits really shows the step up....can't wait from some pics from SDCC....

And that's the original Prototype which was painted better.

One subtle thing I love on the new figure is the red tone they used. Maul has a slight orange tint because of Park's skin mixing with the paint and they nailed that this time, using hot rod red on collectibles just feels almost toy-like sometimes.
