Hot Toys has some nice stuff, I put them second only to SS.
Yea, Kenobi's head is prolly a close to production version.

But that cloth sash on Anakin does have me a bit worried...
Yeah, Obi-Wan's paint app on his face/beard looks GREAT!
I wouldn't be too worried about the Anakin thing. My understanding is that these are 2nd or 3rd generation prototypes sent to Hot Toys and are missing several of their accessories/correct costumes as found on the US prototype samples that are in the posession of SS...Apparently they had to use some HASBLOW clothes and accessories just to fill them out! That's why Han has no belt! When Anakin is shipped in May, We WILL get the cloth sash/simulated leather jerkin on Anakin as seen in the SS images/US Toyfair photos...I'm SURE of that!

Photos look great, always nice to see some more real-world images of these figures. I really like the paint apps on Obi, and I hope the look closer to that then whats up on SS site.
And a side note, glad to see that a geek is still a geek no matter what country they hail from

It's kinda funny Wor-Gar, Kit was the first one I actually contemplated PASSING on...I figured there's SO MANY characters in the SW universe, I can't get them all...I won't have room for them. Luckily common sense prevailed and I figured I should at least get him to check him out and if I don't have the room eventually...sell him off. But now he's quickly becoming one of my most anticipated figures...Probably because he's got such a unique head-sculpt! And will look GREAT posed with Mace!
Kit is a figure I had been aware of since the preorder, but I wasn't interested in him at all (the guy doesn't even have any lines in the movie). But I too have caved to the artistry of the piece and seeing those pics from the Chinese Toy Fair was the straw that broke the camels back and I pre-ordered Kit from entertainmentearth.com :chew can't wait to see him!
Yep, Pixle and Fett, I almost thought to pass on Kit too. Now that he's the only alien, he really sticks out in a good way.

WOW...is all I have to say. Obi-Wan's likeness to Ewan McGreggor is actually kind of frightening. Can't wait to have him and Darth Vader facing off.

I agree! Obi-Wan looks amazing. After getting Luke, I can't wait for the others. As for Kit Fisto, I too thought about passing him but figured better safe than sorry and pre-ordered him anyway. But the more I see, the more I like. It's such a cool design and has been captured so well that he will definitely be staying.
