man this figure is just so good, they knocked it out of the park!
Those pics make it look like a must-own figure. They really do old men well.
The only thing that isn't perfect about it is that he looks slightly too concerned IMO, almost like he's resigned to his fate. I think a more calculating "one eyebrow raised" look would have been more becoming to capture in figure form:
Beautiful, but I must say if I get this, definitely folding the sleeves in
Wow, can't wait to get this one.
Between those hands, the tunic camel toe and those cuffs, they should have just revealed the head on a stick.
But what a glorious figure. The Emperor has been a bit meh so far, but this one has made SDCC.

Wow, did HT do a fantastic job on this. Everything looks so accurate. The sleeves could be futzed a little to lessen the undershirt showing but it's still true to the screen costume to see it. Other than that I don't see any problem with the outfit.
That sculpt is awesome. They even got the lop sided hair right. Sure wish I hadn't of spent money trying to get a custom together now.

Broke and happy
I was hoping for the cgi version of Tarkin from RO to go with my RO specific Vader.

Just NO! Don't ever encourage Hot Toys to make a SOFTER sculpt! They will do it....
Really happy for everyone who's dreamed of owning this figure! I do wonder what a repaint would do to it; the sculpt is terrific, but adding some red to the eyelids and the skin below the eyes, along with a few touch ups, would bring it to life.

Color grading can easily account for the appearance change. A famous example is Kirk's shirt on Star Trek was avocado in color but appeared gold on camera/TV. Or the endless Hoth Han blue coat/brown coat debate.
Looks like a perfect color match to a MASH uniform.

Those hands.........
This figure could use a set of sculpted forearms to achieve his iconic look. Ssc did this with a few of their dead figures. I mean it's not like he needs to hold anything. (Don't say Vader leash either...
) he could have the chin hand and pointy finger hand, (telling Leia in a way she has a determined the choice of which planet will be destroyed first)
Yes , no, maybe..........

What about his Rank badge...looks like the proto needs to be thicker blocks on his badge

Woah looking at this comparison pic didn't realize the color of the suit is wrong
Yeah, it needs to be a bit more gray/green than what it appears. It could be more of a lighting issue than the suit though.
I'm sure HT has top men working on it now. Top.... Men.
