Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

[TaliBane]

Imagine the cajones required to make HT Chewy taller - get out the scalpel, slice open fur and inner suit...

 

[Anthrapoid]

I'm going to add some extra height to Chewie, make Luke shorter, and leave Han's height unchanged. I just really hope HT doesn't give us a (eposide IV) Leia sculpt that resembles Janet Reno... The SS Leia sculpt is just so weird, and she's a virtual pygmy in size. Hot Toys NEEDS to nail her, once and for all. (pardon the inadvertent sexual innuendo)

I HAVE THOSE CAJONES.

For bollocks that clang together when he walks and make a big booming sound you have to look to ZE, who apparently scraped off the stripes on his HT stormtrooper's helmet with a knife.

You read that right.

Can't remember who posted this photo, but it appears to determine that Sideshow's Han is the same height as a HT slim:

Hoth Luke would therefore be a good match for HT Bespin Luke. Han probably needs to be ported over onto a HT narrow shoulder (or similar knock-off), which will give a better relative height difference.

That was me buddy , i will post another side by side when i get luke tommorow or thusday aswell

I sure wish we had a 1/6 TaunTaun thread to go with these figures.

What happened to it? went to have a gander this morning and saw it closed, not like thee was any off track talk?

Yes, it is.

Da Bomb Show called it a "frosty paint effect".

I was wondering that, too.

Yeah, me too: https://www.sideshowcollectors.com/...ures/97685-1-6th-scale-sideshow-tauntaun.html

Why did that thread get closed? Did I miss something last night?

Best scene from Frozen, IMO.

Did it reach the first marker?

Sounds like a euphemism - 'reaching the first marker'...

I think I got confused somewhere along the line....is the Exclusive hatless portrait head that comes with the BROWN jacket version the same as the hatless portrait that comes with the BLUE jacket version?

 

[EVILFACE]

I think....everyone should just buy Long Ears Batman.

Yes. As explained by Sideshow in 2013 (to try and make up for their earlier fumble in describing this set), the exclusive is the head and it's available with either a brown or blue coat.

IMO, they should have just had two versions, both with the second head. Brown coat available everywhere, blue coat only available from Sideshow. Done.

From the images I have seen so far of Luke and Han's headsculpts, they have no business being in the $200 price range.

Sideshow is going to comb through all these threads and start pricing their figures at $300.

Ok thanks for clearing that up. I thought the Blue coat was only available from Sideshow?

 

[Pixelpiper]

It is. It's only available with one of the two exclusives.

 

[mattdorris]

I wonder how soon we should expect sideshow to ship this possibly next week?

I sent off an email today asking for a shipping update, but something tells me I won't be getting a concrete answer of any kind from them.
