Why is the ball dropped on the TaunTauns exactly?

I think they're having a laugh.

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

Yeah, Sideshow really dropped the ball on those Tauntauns... and the in progress photos looked so promising too.

 

[Creighton]

No. These things are polystone.

The video from SS says these will be made of resin. Similar to the Dewback, rotocast Jabba material.

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

Ain't it a beauty!

 

[Darkseed]

IF and a big IF SS production piece holds up this well, it is an easy buy

The difference in texture between the head & neck on that Ewan - is jarring.

 

[Kubrick]

Is the hood and hat removable?

 

[Pixelpiper]

Is the hood and hat removable?

Puffy coat's hood - yes.

Hat - no.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

...but he will include an additional separate head without the hood and hat.

 

[Kubrick]

...but he will include an additional separate head without the hood and hat.

Two headsculpts from Sideshow?

Is this confirmed?

 

[aaronViolator]

I HOPE sideshow doesn't screw this one up - they still have allot of work in the 1/6 dept.

 

[devilof76]

It's too bad everyone isn't as clever as pixelpiper.

MAN THIS IS HARRISON FORD IN THE FLESH!

SixthScaleEdward sure know how to start a fire and kill it soon

 

[Pixelpiper]

Although:

The differences between SDCC Obiwan and production in terms of facial sculpt comes down to lighting and photography. You will see the exact same results from any manufacturer in the business. The rest is minor differences in production fabrics and futzing, because it seems people genuinely like the end result from what I've read. Anyone can produce far more egregious examples using any Hot Toys figure of the past few years.

The stuff from SDCC13 frankly looks a lot better still - that SDCC Obiwan shot is not a good example of great paint application, and the new Luke and Han are.

I'm inclined to agree with pixel.
I own obi and it look much better when it's not sitting under a flood light.

 

[SixthScaleEdward]

I have to admit, the Han proto at SDCC was exceptionally beautiful.
Let's hope SSC won't disappoint this time around.
