Sideshow Hoth Han Solo (Echo Base)

He didn't wear socks!

Maybe he only started wearing them in Episode VII?

The jacket being grey isn't that much of a stretch. I can't say it ever looked straight up grey in the movie though. There's always a bit of blue cast on it. Even in the prop photos it still has a tint of blue.

Man, haven't seen this thread for almost a year and I see people are still debating about the jacket's color.

It's a topic that deserves its own thread so people can keep arguing until they are blue in the face.

You mean brown in the face, don't you?

Just thought I would show a comparison of the old Bespin Han and the new:

Amazing how far we've come in, what, 8 years?

Old Han got caught with his pants down.

 

[davejames]

Wow, amazing how much shorter that original jacket looks without the pants. Lol

 

[Pixelpiper]

The shirt makes a huge difference, but everything else pretty much looks the same.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Wow. Nice compare, Lu.

 

[Rorywan]

What.. No one has commented on the jockstrap version on the right? What the **** is this place coming to?

(And sorry to ask the obvious, which one is the good one?)

Still so happy they included a new Bespin jacket under the parka. This setup on an HT Han body, with HT belt and holster and boots will look ace!

 

[Antihero]

So does the blue jacket version also come with the 2nd head?

Yes, it does.

 

[Antihero]

Thanks, Kuat!

What's really strange is that the pants went all the way up to reach the jacket! Talk about high waisted! That Buck body was bad to begin with, but then the tailor accentuated how off those proportions were!

Wow. Nice compare, Lu.

Thanks!

Definitely a nice surprise bonus from Sideshow!

I know right? This place is losing it's edge! lol...I would have placed the gas mask right over the crotch......

 

[Mad Old Lu]

That jockstrap is actually very helpful! It's a PITA to tuck the shirt in to little 1:6 pants!

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, those straps are a bit of a pain as you have to remove the pants to put a shirt on or off, but it does make it say in place w/o having to tuck stuff in.

And great comparison Lu... really a drastic improvement and a cool bonus to what was already a great figure.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

Thanks, GB. Good point about it being a pain to have to remove the pants!

 

[JMW326]

My fix was a really simple one. Since the foot pegs are actually quite long, I just added a couple little spacers at the bottom created from some hollow plastic tubing I had around (although even a large straw might work), so the legs wouldn't slide down quite as far.

And it still seems to be a tight enough fit for any posing you might want to do.

Thanks for that. I will give it a try.
