Thanks, and I can understand your POV on Han if you're trying not to collect them all. ANH/ROTJ Han style has always defined Han's look for me, ESB was a bit like, what's with the jacket all of a sudden? It's a nice figure from Sideshow, but even I'd pass on it if I was planning to only have a single Han figure.

Its not the character, I actually prefer Bespin Han, I just didnt like the SS headsculpt. Your photography is so good MF that the Bespin Han looks better in your photos than he does in person!!
 
another question. My luke's right arm is... very loose in the upper arm swivel joint. any recomendations on fixing that?

It's so loose infact that i can shake the body, and without the jacket, the arm will spin like a propeller.

That's not good. :monkey2

Undress the figure and see if it is the plastic piece that connects the arm to the inside of the body. If it's just a case of thin plastic or too wide a hole in the body you can push some cotton in there to tighten it up. Or possibly put some super glue on the thin plastic piece to thicken it up, just like many people have done on the Anakin arm to keep it from falling off all the time.
 
It's possible, but hey, a whole new figure isn't a bad thing in the long run, it's just hard to play the waiting game sometimes.

As for Han, the Bespin look has always been my favorite; I know the vest is more iconic but I've always liked the jacket more, and as I don't have a problem with the likeness, this figure is a big hit for me. I can't wait to have them all set up together.

Agreed! I'm looking at my Han right now (easily my least favorite of all the SS figs I've purchased), and for whatever reason he doesn't look as good as your pics! :monkey1
 
You guys may want to send your Empire Hans to Josh (DA). With just an eye tweak and hair repaint, it comes to life... Anyway that's what I did and everyone who comes by to see mine says it is definitely Harrison.

I will post a new pic with Han and (pre tweak repainted) Luke side by side soon...

Planning on doing that, once i get Han that is :)
 
Yea, just the simple task of painting the hair brown makes a huge difference in how he looks.

True EF, Once I get Luke tweaked, these will rock. Of course Han's head is a bit large and he needs a HT/new Body so his outfit fits better BUT still well worth the effort to have a great set of ESB Figs. Empire is my Fave SW Film. :cool:

The sculpt is there! :rock :rock :rock

Indeed, Josh's paint reveals it, the right lighting in a photo can reveal it. Like I've said, people can say what they want about my photography, and I appreciate it, but as much credit is to Sideshow, if they didn't do their job right, I couldn't do mine.
 
Off topic but god i hope SS has a new Han in the works.(ANH preferably)

(greedo han 2 pack anyone???) :)

Clearly Sideshow's not doing their job right. If that's Harrison Ford, then I'm not negative!
