Han's just back from holiday on Scarif.
It's a nice sculpt, but ugh... Sideshow's paint apps.

PU Leia today, no dots and a damn fine HS in hand. I get some of the 1000 yard stare comments, but I have seen worse with HT female figures. I am very happy to have this in the collection.

One minor thing on mine I didn’t notice right away is that the name placard has a spot where the lining outlining the Star Wars logo and her name is either not finished or something. No big deal as I normally take the placards off for my Star Wars figures.

Did the figure stink?

You beat me to it! Great shot! Which Han is that?
Trying to find a new pose for Leia but HT made it really hard with its terrible selection of gloved hands -- a bunch or right hands that hold nothing and one single left glove that holds nothing.
And two ungloved hands that hold everything. But I like the gloves.
Anyway... was trying for a "disturbed while working" pose but the damn left hand can't really hold the goggles correctly...
I don't even have a good hand to put on her hip, even though that's how she is on the box. And the goggles can't sit on her head because for the first time HT does NOT use that stretchy material (yet they do on the breather). GAH!
This figure may go back to the most basic of museum poses...

For what it's worth, Wor-Gar, the gloved hand looks pretty natural with the goggles like that at the moment.
I appreciate that. Thanks.
I'll have to review my ref... there must be a good pose for her. With the hands given I can't even do the static crossed-arms look.

Honestly man, I would say throw some more "Leia sass" in her hips and I would stick with that pose. I think it looks really good - and it'll be different compared to Jyn and Rey, both who don't particularly warrant the lady-like poses.

I have H. Leia resting one of her useless gloved left hands on top of R2's dome. Pretty cool pose.
I was trying to get that shifted hips thing when I was trying for one hand on hip... maybe I'll give it a go again without the hand on hip.
Yeah it's definitely a challenge finding good poses for this figure. And even the bloggers didn't really come up with all that much in their pics.

Got the replacement body for the broken arm I originally received, so now she's all good! I feel something was tweaked to the sculpt to throw it off slightly, but overall a must-have for Original Trilogy Star Wars fans!

Articulation feels a little restricted by the suit, but managed to get her in at least a pose I was mostly happy with. Wanted to get more of a curve to her waist but couldnt get the body and costume to move enough.

That’s a really good pose. I might have to steal that.

Lol thanks! I think that's the first time anyone has ever said that about my poses since I'm usually crap at posing!
Here's my quick look at the recent Hot Toys Princess Leia in her Hoth outfit. Another solid release and a definite must-have for fans of The Empire Strikes Back!

I had a chance to open this. it is a fine figure, but with no bespin han, or a lando, (or even better, han and falcon cockpit), this really doesnt go with many of the previous hot toys star wars line. I guess the best i can to is have her paired with chewbacca.
