Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

[TonTon]

Yeah I'm already on the hook for it too. The line is in the middle of the neck? I thought they'd hide it under the bridle.

 

[Cybermaker]

Those don't look like the prototypes. Hard to tell with Han, but Luke looks better.

They've definitely done an excellent job with the sculpts. Props SSC.

Please keep a copy of that post in your files Devil.

The coats on Han and Luke are not the same coats shown at SDCC (differences in stitching and paint) so either they make a few protos for various shows or they could be production figs.

Han looks like he's controlling a remote control air plane in that picture.

Good catch.

But if you look at the close-up of Luke you can just make out the reflection in his eyes of the flying object he's pointing at...

Presumably this forms part of Jedi training for cats?

Why is Han wearing a brown coat?

Why is Han wearing a brown coat?

For screen accuracy purposes.




Plus the fact that flying cats tend to get nervous and brown will hide the stains.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

What's with the flying cats man..

It's brown because of where he's standing in proximity to the Tauntaun's azz.

Uptight ascetics engaged in fanatical gestures of conformist submissiveness?

Uptight ascetics engaged in fanatical gestures of conformist submissiveness?

Highly screen accurate conformist submissiveness.

 

[devilof76]

So, obsessive compulsive as well.

A few more up close:

Pretty good I think! Hard to tell for sure, but not bad at all...

 

[Invictus Sol]

If those are production, they look pretty great.

 

[TaliBane]

If those are production, they look pretty great.

Does Sideshow make only one prototype figure for shows and photography, or do they make a couple?

If we can answer that, we'll know if these are production. These are not the same figs shown at SDCC.

I would guess they make only one (otherwise there'd be variation in the hand-painted heads show-to-show,) so I would guess these are indeed production figs.

Also, we know that Sideshow has had in-hand the production figure recently, though the ship date is still months away. I know SSC Vader DX shipped a month or so earlier than expected, so that might be the case here.

Mind blown that the SS Hoth figs look better than the HT ANH figs. Of course in hand is a completely different matter.

Overall I'm still excited for these guys but have been completely underwhelmed by HT's offerings so far. Did not expect that.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Han has the HT Ben Kenobi eyes. Heavy upper flap.


I think they're protos but they do look great. If they were production Alex would be in here saying so.

 

[CAhobbit]

Han Solo is an early production piece at the show. Same with the Taun taun. Luke is not.

Just FYI for y'all.

I've never really cared one way or the other about Han's Hoth look, but the more I see of this figure the more tempted I am to get it.
