I think the ones in the photo were a modern mock-up of the original samples made by Meccano/Kenner to advertise their new line:

Those were 1-off customs.But so cool, I'd LOVE to own a copy.
Wouldn't be too hard to make and you could find some loose Adventure People on ebay. I might have to do that myself.

Time man, time. I already have so many Adventure People and sets on my wanted list it's not funny. I have a whole shelf reserved for them.

That is so awesome !!! The only reason for me for purchasing the Hoth Luke consisted in getting this additional hair piece ...
Which dye have you used for re-coloring Han´s coat??? It is splendid ...

Of course there's so much brown. They're trying to camouflage in the dirt and... Wait a second. Doh!

LOL! I like that. Jaun. What a crack up!
Yeah, the skintone on both Luke and Han is a shade too dark, even compared to the darker HT Caucasian faces. Other than that, both SSC unhatted heads are terrific though.
why does Luke have no neck?

I was sitting here thinking Juan had a giraffe neck, is it the other way around? 
The SSC Bespin Han pants are too light but are available on eBay from time to time parted. The Hasbro pants - more available - are closer to the color but the fabric is too thick. Both SSC and Hasbro pants have totally wrong side-striping (not fine enough.) The "good/newer" Hasbro tall black boots (e.g. Luke Jedi, imperial officer) work just as well as the plastic SSC (ANH smuggler, Piett etc.) ones. SSC Indy German boots are pretty close too. Currently on mine I have the DID pleather officer boots. While these type are better than they used to be, I think the big, unfutzable creases and 10% oversize ruins the illusion a bit, but people seem to love them and feel they exude "quality" because they're pleather not rubbery plastic.
