I feel like a broken record, but I swear by the JX toys S01. It’s affordable, great joints and the build is great for Indy.

Nice! I bought one of these bodies as well but its part of my "combine and ship later" set of things that MD offers so I haven't seen it in hand yet. I like that it has a more natural tanned skin tone color than just the brown color of the ANH body. The hair paint on the neck and body turned out nicely as well.
Yeah, it's a little less orange than ANH, agree that it looks more natural. I got a bunch of seamless Cario arms painted to match to the ANH body, I'll have to see how close they are to this chest piece. Forgot about those
Even though the difference seems pretty clear when they're side by side, I would imagine having the shirt on will help alleviate any discrepancies in skintone paint between the two and appear much more subtle.

What do you guys think of the new Harrison Ford sculpt for ROTJ Han Solo?

Looks like the face would be a better TOD sculpt rather than Jedi.
I like it. And as much as I like the Waruna Han sculpt which I think has the superior likeness, you also need a costly superior paint app to really bring it out much like what 357 did with TonTon's sculpt. Out of the box, the HT is a win for the most part IMO, especially when you factor in cost. The clothing itself looks superior to the custom GeeWhiz ROTJ clothing set that probably cost as much if not more as the HT figure.
And b/c of that, if HT were to make a new, younger Indy -whether it's ROTLA, TOD, TLC or even DOD- I would probably prefer it over any custom sculpt simply b/c of the more than likely moving eyes, great out of the box paint apps that match the rest of the body and overall value compared to what you have to pay for custom stuff.
To @Wor-Gar 's point from another thread though, as nice as (some of us) think this ROTJ Han is, it's not that art/realistic level that the InArt Phoenix Joker is.

Something is off about the hair, bit the face looks great.
I think Han looks great aside from the hair. Hope they fix that but can live with it if they don't, but promising for if they do another Indy. Nice to have a figure come ready right out of a package like this and for roughly the price of an unpainted sculpt these days.

Love the damn sculpt. If this is similar to what ht can bring for a potential young indy, we're gonna be really cooking.

Hoping this means new Indiana jones gets made next.
That's something that I always hope for. I similarly mentioned in one of the Batman threads that it's nice to open a figure and not immediately feel like you have to start modding, customizing and switching things out as soon as you get it out of the package.

Needs botox, but, it's the best Ford they've done. Not sure it's the best Ford ever, but, it's getting there. Can the same sculptor get an Indy over the line, we will see......

I think it is a nice sculpt, and the eyes being posable is also a plus.
However I think the feature they could improve this sculpt with is the nose.
Ford has a really asymmetrical nose, and this nose, if close to accurate, is symmetrical.

The nose om the sculpt is definitely not symmetrical

Yeah I think they got the right amount of asymmetry, don't want to make it cartoony. Reminds me of the Yixie nose.

At least we know if they do a young Indy from any of the OT or DOD it will be pretty good likeness wise. Either way if we get one I'll have that as my main Indy figure finally and not have to put up so much money on my custom.
Maybe part of Ford's new contract after his disappointment with the ANH figure: "I must be sculpted by Yulli!"
