Thrilled with these.

Cool photos!

Can't wait until Thursday. :impatient:


The furry hood is looking better in these latest arrivals...as in more furry?
 
don't look at your life sensors while riding your Tauntaun! :rotfl

I really like how this Han looks. Overall he has a great appearance... but I am surprised everyone is complaining about new R2 being undersized, apart from other issues, and not many people complain that this Han is sadly too short.

What do you think?
 
Here's a look at my Han on a TaunTaun.

Sick job on the ceiling! And nice review too

Jeez, these dudes really are large. They dwarf the Probie. I saw one in a local shop but I guess I couldn't get the real feel for how big it is in the context it was in (bottom shelf of display, only next to Luke, no other 1/6 items. etc.)
 
Looks good as a Bespin Han... there is something a bit off on the likeness, but I can't place my finger on it. Might just be the eyes, or general shape of the head. But overall very solid.

I've got my Bespin Han alread ported to a HT body. But, it's not one with a neck, so I'll have to see if I have a fixed neck body I can port it over to for this head.
 
Yeah I'm really surprised we haven't seen any Bespin Han bashes yet with the new head and jacket. Surely we can't be the only people here who still have that old Bespin Han figure.

I've had mine waiting on a narrow shoulder ever since I pre-ordered these Hoth Hans.

I was re-arranging bodies yesterday and had a narrow shoulder left over that I put Commander Praji's uniform onto. As he was standing there headless I had an idea of what to do with the second of the un-hatted Han heads:

The sculpt would be a bit old for Lieutenant Solo, but okay for an older Solo to be going under disguise.

I'm curious wether or not the new shirt is better in terms of quality and taioring? Guess I'll find out tomorrow.

Mine came in today but I missed the delivery, called fedex to have the package held for pickup at the depot where they told me my vat fees will be $109.00 canadian . I live in Ontario Canada, and will obviously dispute this with fedex. I mainly ordered the exclusive from sideshow because of the Extra head sculpt.Just wondering if anyone else has had this type of problem before.


My brother was charged $76 bucks for duty. He refused the package so it could be adjusted by customs. The person at Fedex asked if the description was a jacket you would wear outside. Therefore, a new description had to be given stating it is a 12 inch action figure and the category had to be changed.

Guess the wait continues.
 
Mine landed this morning. I'm at work now so i only had an hour or so to check for eventual isuues but i'm happy to report he's perfectly allright. Blue parka does look excellent in hand. Can't wait to return home and futz him a little.
 
Looks very good, but the eyes still seem a bit off to me. I think it's the eyebrows, which look too perfect and "drawn on". A bit of paint should fix that.

Great comp... I missed that earlier, shows how close it is. I think the lips look a bit too full as well, might reduce them just a touch.

Looking good, I was pretty happy with the Bespin outfit once I moved it over to a TT...

This is using one of Mando's heads which I like quite a bit, but I think the new one is a more solid likeness overall.

Shirt seems of nice quality IMO. But I never got the Bespin Han so I'm not sure how that shirt was.

Here's a tip
Use a TT for those who want to do a Bespin bash. I like this new Pro body but without the thick Hoth coat, the Head seems a bit larger because the Pro's shoulder's are too flat, so it looks a bit odd IMO.

It still works with the Pro body, but you kind of see that the shirt collar needs to be raised because the new neck joint and the too flat and thin shoulders.

But it's your choice. Even though the Narrow TT is thinner, I think the design of the shoulders will still work as opposed to the Pro. :lecture

Call me crazy but I'm thinking Narrow TT for both Hoth AND Bespin Han. I'll use Han's Pro for my SS Bespin Luke.

It looks better in person. Trust me. Using that comparison shot is not the best because I added effects to it. In case you missed it here is the original




Check this out and you will see what I mean

 
And even there the eyes don't look too large... and like others said I think a touch of guyliner, might just do the trick as well as bushing out the eyebrows a touch.

Overall looks like a winner, and I'll get to find out in person in just a few hours :rock :rock :rock
