Yavin Luke image thread

Why is his head so big?

I've asked that almost everytime they released a SW figure.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

From the way everybody has been talking Boushh might help with that too.

 

[dekadentdave]

I'm definitely put off by the line now. I'm still excited about Plo Koon because the aliens are badass sculpts but the humans I am reluctant to collect because of the likeness/paint issues. I won't be collecting every figure, just the ones that look right.

I like you new avatar Dave.

The lines doing fine. I think the people who are "unhappy" are in the minority really. Most are fairly pleased with what they're getting. Could it be better? Sure everything could be no matter how perfect we think something may be.

 

[JABBATHERIDGE]

I think most people think the releases have been "okay" compared to last year when most people felt they were fantastic.

I'm not saying everyone's turned against the line, I just don't think that it's generating the same excitement as it used to.

Again just IMHO

 

[DarthNeil]

I like you new avatar Dave.

Agreed....although I'm also very scared.

Hold me.

 

[dekadentdave]

It's all in good fun guys. I may not agree with Josh's rosey view of things but
there's nothing wrong with differing opinions. I'm just cancelling out his.

 

[JABBATHERIDGE]

So you're his yang

 

[MaulFan]

So you're his yang

Josh posted pictures of his yang last night!

Josh posted pictures of his yang last night!

Yes, I did.

I'm just glad they screwed up an insignificant figure. If this had been Tatooine Luke I'd have been very dissapointed. Easy pass....... next figure please.

I try not to do a lot of whining when it comes to paint apps or sculpts (like some), but Luke is the first figure to make me feel like it's just average. And it's a bit of a let-down. I'm not put off, but I do expect better. Especially since we're a year and a half into the line.

For me, this won't be acceptable at all if it happens with Obi-Wan.

 

[paulcarson]

The problem is...


his mouth isn't open !

No , I think once the eyes are painted the proper colour we'll see the character as he should be.

If they screw up Obi-Wan like this, I won't buy another figure from SS. That's a promise.

The eyes on Luke are probably the biggest sticking point... and look especially bad when enlarged like a lot of pictures. When you actually have him in person as part of your display the reddish/brown outline is not noticeable... but his eyes still have a darker tint to them.

I think it goes further than just the eyes. the sculpt is just not there.

 

[pixletwin]

I wish sideshow would post an unpainted proto pic.

 

[nash]

I think MaulFan could just put a gray filter mask over it to cancel out the colors?
