Wow...I forgot just how bad the original Han PF was...yikes

 

[ambasah]

the headsculpt on the first pf is actually not bad...It is the paint that killed it.

 

[ambasah]

wait a sec, now I'm not sure if it was that one or this one : )

 

[Khev]

All of your pics with the bluer tint are of Trevor Grove's 12 inch Han. That greenish one looks like the first PF though. I wonder if anyone ever had it repainted.

 

[Darth Lam]

I need to learn how to paint!

 

[Amphion]

The green one is the PF. I have it and those bushy eyebrows are unmistakable.

I'll wait another decade for Return of the Jedi Han, in the hopes that they finally give us a Star Wars pf that actually looks like Ford...

the ROTJ Han Solo PF is IMO the best version of him sideshow has done.

I hope I don't miss out on the priority preorder. I am not fast enough at these things. Good luck everyone!

It probably wont have an ES set on it for months, no need to rush.

I'm leaning toward picking this up but I fully expect it to remain in stock well past its release which is good because I don't put deposits down on SSC products anymore until I see the final result. If the nonsensical exclusive sells out then no big, I'd never use it anyway.

Harrison Ford wouldn't even approve of this hideous sculpt of himself.

Seems like no one can get young Harrison Fords likeness. With every attempt I appreciate the Hot Toys attempts even more.

 

[Lumos]

The sculpt looks way better without the paint imo.

Lol

The EX is so dumb I will wait till it's out already. I don't want to get it just to have a Han but is there really anything else coming out.

Since PF prices seem to be increasing almost $100/yr., I figure if SS revisits Han in, say, 5 years, they'll want over $1000 for it. Oh, and there's no guarantee that the sculpt or paintjob will be any better Decisions...decisions...

I sort of feel the same regarding the headsculpts. Have you had a chance to look at Iron Studios' 1/4 Cap, Falcon or Winter Sodier. I have them all and the facesculpts are great in my opinion. Or maybe even the company that did the Marilyn Munroe or Rocky headsculpts. All use some sort of translucent resin.

Sideshow has experimented with their Man of Steel (imo a failure) and their comic Green Lantern (which was a step in the right direction), but they really do need to use the material for all their pieces with actor likenesses or they are doomed to fail.

I don't have any Iron Studios pieces yet but I agree with you based upon the pictures of these. The head sculpts and likenesses look much closer to Hot Toys. Looks like these run around $100 more than Sideshow currently so may be for the next price increase there will be a quality increase as well. One can hope!

Ordered !!!

Doubt it. Especially given that the price increases for both Deadpool and Thanos are already in excess on $100. And until we see a series of production pieces, quality will still be an unknown.

Suffice it to say I will never preorder a Sideshow movie related piece where actor likeness is key ever again. I will wait until in hand pics surface to make a decision.

I may lose out on exclusives, but that doesn't bother me as I've only ordered direct with Sideshow once, so I'm used to it.
