Three parts of the vest fell off and the belt came unglued on two pouches that were missing magnets right out of the box.

Sorry to hear that. But congrats!

As TonTon above mentioned, the waitlist has been closed & Luke is now "Sold Out"; however, that doesn't mean they won't revisit the figure, as Sideshow has been doing more of lately. Problem is, when Sideshow decides to re-issue a figure, they have a tendency to not "give with both hands" - They'll make some (usually minor) improvement to the figure itself but not include accessories which came with the original, making the re-issue more of a "Slim" edition.

What could sideshow possibly take away, the helmet? This IS the slim edition

They should just throw in the wonky Snowtrooper stand, I'm sure they'll have a few lying around, and change the nameplate - voila... Deluxe Snowspeeder Luke

He's very nice. Lots of delicate parts to the flight suit. Both sculpts are good. The head portrait is much better in hand and the likeness is strong in my opinion. The helmeted look is the better of the two for me.

Going to try a dagobah Luke look.

Very nice! That's the DX07 belt and sculpt you have on it, no?

Both belts have their inaccuracies, but I think the DX07 belt overall is the more accurate of the two. Just by eyeballing the SSC RG figure and the circumference of the DX07 belt, it looked like it wouldn't fit around the flight jacket of the SSC figure. Is it a tight fit I presume? Looks like it is.

The DX07 sculpt also looks great on this figure.

Nice eye. Yes it's actually a full replacement of dx07 head, body, belt and boots. The belt is snug but not too bad. It actually has a bit of stretch to it and you can work it a bit at the hips since the dx07 true type is so skinny. I didn't put the snow pants back on him so there is lots of room in the flightsuit.

 

[SilverStar17]

Nice, looks really good. Did you take off the thigh strap of the DX07 belt?

 

[hokietwo]

I taped it to the back of the flight strap to hide it and draw the holdster against the leg.

I got on the waitlist May 12 and it converted on Tuesday. Just got it yesterday but haven't opened it yet.

 

[TonTon]

Mine arrived for me today. Sitting outside in the hot heat. Wonder if his face will melt.

 

[Fremen]

Probably.

And he's got his winter jacket on too !!

That parka flight jacket is probably doing him as much good right now as an air conditioner on Hoth.

Hope nothing is melted though.

 

[BatBrain]

Mine should be here next week from Popcultcha. I wasn't initially interested in this one but after loads of pics and reviews I caved.

if it starts to melt maybe you can re sculpt it to make it look like mark Hamill.

It was 90 out today here. And now it's raining, but knowing PopCultcha he's wrapped in 2-foot thick bubble wrap (a green house!).

Yeah, he'll probably look like those creepy knock-off DX07 Luke head sculpts with the droopy eyes.

 

[TonTon]

Scheduled to arrive Friday [emoji106]

Bad news, though you predicted it. We get the regular, no gloves/hands exclusive. In reality those make more sense with the unhelmeted sculpt anyway, and that sculpt is pretty scary so I guess it's not a big deal.

No tracking update since the 10th so here is hoping it's still on target to arrive today.

I didn't expect gloves since the exclusive was a SS gimmick and never intended displaying the SS head sculpt....
