[...]though the quality on the stock body has gotten closer to HT - Luke Hoth had a touch of the short torso/long arms thing that has come up a bit in SSC figs all the way back to #1 release, monkey-arms Luke Jedi.

The weapons have also gone undersized in some cases. Just got the Jawas and the guns at first glance look too a touch too small to me, just like the Biker Scout pistol was.

The Red 5 stock body really isn't bad. My only real issue is that it's a touch broad-shouldered, and I preferred the MMS 304 body (Stormtrooper-Luke).

I've generally liked SSC weapons better than HT weapons, but that based mostly on the E-11s.

Dying of curiosity to see the production version of this figure, though.

Looks like the Sideshow ceremonial with extra collar glued on and painted.

Back in 2013 I made a snow speeder Luke, but I sold him. Kinda wished I'd kept him because this figure is taking forever...

Those are awesome customs. Look great.

so this is Sideshow Collectibles' Ash 1/6... can we expect a great sculpt and paint for this figure too??

Not horrible for a Sideshow sculpt. It does slightly look more like a caricature but it's not the worst. Gives me hope this could be okay.

A reason why I'll be keeping the helmet on

But to be honest, Ash from Evil Dead 2 and AoD was a caricature of Evil Dead 1 Ash, so it fits the character.

I think we all need a dose of Mike's positivity.

Really curious to see even the proto presented somewhere.

Last picture I saw was of the headsculpt back in May of 2016.

There's 2 sculpts with this release. Helmeted and hair helmet.

Well let's be honest, Sideshow doesn't have the best track record for human sculpts.

With no signs of any production pics yet and the release date being only three months away, IMO SSC are either really taking this one seriously which means we could get something very close to the proto OR things have gone very badly and they are just trying to get as many pre orders in before the S*%T hits the fan. I hope it's not the latter.
