Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[menoseloso]

Finally picked this guy up had a couple of issues though. The lightsaber clip and one side of the magnetic buttons had come of the belt about 37 seconds after I opened him. What do you guys think would work better to reattach them fabric glue or super glue?

I used a really small amount of super glue (Mighty Bond) on the saber hook, had no problems after.
I'm not entirely sure about what to do with the button.

P.S.
Make sure you align the hook properly with the buttons at the back side of the belt.

Waiting for the UPS guy to arrive to deliver him to me

Quite upset though since I might have to return him to Sideshow for a full refund. Other expenses have popped up. Really want to keep this guy and get the Darth Vader coming up soon.

Darth Vader not coming till Jan. 2014....8 months away. Not soon to me, but it could be for you.

Sideshow's page says they are checking inventory on this figure. If you can afford to keep him, you may want to, since he may be selling out for good soon.

I guess it's a good thing I ordered mine when I did, would hate to have missed out on this.

Wow didn't notice he sold out. It's 4PM and UPS truck still haven't arrived. It's my one day off of work and he decides to be late.

I'm not sure yet on what to do. I saw the battle damage Luke go for $150 just for the figure alone so I might do that to work out the difference.

 

[Hologram AI]

Just got him. Had to open him up before deciding if I should return him to Sideshow or not but man was it a mistake. I really want to keep him. Does anyone else not have 100% straight PER eyes? His left eye on both of them are very slightly off. I never get PER eyes that are dead straight and spot on.

Anyone interested in a broken Bespin base? I believe the weather vane is broken, though I've not opened it.

I've got it in the package and all boxed up, it was returned to me following an exchange for a new base which I sold -- I have no need for it.

I'm sure someone with some basic skills could fix it.

Asking $25 dlvd in the USA ($12 for shipping, so $13 for the vane).

Decided to keep this guy and hold out until the 1/6 Vader comes out to put them together. Beautiful figure.

Nice pics! PERS seems to be okay from those pics.

 

[Pixelpiper]

This guy doesn't have PERS, but guess who he's holding a spot for?



The floor is still a work in progress. "wireless" LED lit custom shelf in a Detolf. Apart from completely inventing the custom shelf, my favorite aspect is how the light catches in the background and makes it look like it's also back-lit.

Glad you decided to keep both, Hologram. Considering how iconic both versions are and the value of the set as a whole, seems like a waste to part it out.

Beautiful set-up, pixel. Really like how it's contained to a Detolf shelf and yet still looks so expansive. Nice and clean. Looking forward to seeing how your display space evolves.

I started out collecting The Vintage Collection 3.75" figures, so the jump to Hot Toys DX07 Luke was almost overwhelming!! Nice to have the definitive Bespin Luke in both scales!

 

[OSCORP]

Gotta get this one

 

[koolkollectibleskhai]

Gotta get this one

LOL!! Probably out of my price range

 

[OSCORP]

I bet you can find it loose.

That's what she said.

They should've used the other card back for the second VC Hasbro release.

They jipped me twice on that..
