Mine is the EX like TK and here's the body:
It's the same as Boba Fett, am I right?
Are the joints tight?

Sideshow is gonna have a scandal on their hands. Bodygate or Hothgate

That answers the question. This is the (shorter) Han Hoth body from eBay seller that has Han parted out:
Say what?! Weird.
And regarding Luke's boots, there are very clear variations visible in the movie of "fat" and "slender" white stripe versions as opposed to the no-stripes Dagobah ones.
Luke is even wearing a fourth whitened version of the Dagobah "thin" no-stripes boots when he jumps into the snowspeeder in Hoth base (these are also seen in that promo pic of Luke snowspeeder and Han Bespin standing staring stoically on Hoth base set,) yet when he attacks the ATAT has the stripes.
There do seem to have been actual "cold weather" Finse white stripe versions that are quite fat/padded, but other versions (presumably shot on-stage in England) where they are more slender like the Dagobah versions.

Anyone suspect some of the HK sales were out the back door? Aka after-hours production.

That's indeed the same body I got under Luke's gear. Now wondering what body Han will come with. Hopefully taller, I'd be happy with smaller so I could swap but I fear i'll end up with the exact same Pro 1.1 I just got. Crossing fingers.

Mine was from the HT store so doubt that's the case. More like SS used whatever bodies they had lying around.

Then we may see more than 2 variations. Hope none of them come on the Vader body. v1 or v2.
Hope mine comes on a Leia Boushh body.

Every recent image shows only the short end of the scarf, so I can't tell how long the other end is. I'd expect it to be the same on both sculpt, long enough to wrap around his face like in the movie. In the recent images with the damaged sculpt and saber, you can see the long end of the scarf goes down about as far as his stomach.

It has to be long to do this, so I wouldn't worry about it. I think the long "half" of the scarf is just hidden in most photos.

The scarf was tucked around behind the vest when I took it out of the box. It's definitely too short. I can't even wrap it around the front of his face like that on the regular head, only on the damaged sculpt. It looks like he's wearing Rambo's headband.

A couple of shot of mine (sorry for the lights but I was trying to avoid the harsh flash and it's nighttime here):
Body height (at least the kind that went with my fig) is similar to DX-07 (maybe a bit taller):
Even if the hat makes him look taller:
Mine came with an easy detachable face part...can do very creepy faces:
Hangin upside down:

Oh, I didn't know you had the figure, sorry. I thought maybe you had been checking out the same pictures I was looking at.
Can you take a photo of both sculpts with both halves of the scarf extended outward so we can see the differences?

Can you put the SSC Luke head on the HT Bespin body? Curious to see.
Any idea why some are changing the Trevor HS to the Kojun HT ones?
It seems to me that the Trevor one is far more accurate and superior compared to the stylised Kojun ones.

Personal preferences I guess, but I like the Trevor one too.
Sigh, if it wasn't for the creepy eyes, I'd say the Sideshow wins as far as best Luke likeness. But given the sculpts as is... I think I'd much rather have a HT Luke.
