1/6 Hot Toys MMS 261-Star Wars: Episode IV-Han Solo 1/6th Scale Collectible Figure

[YankeesFanboy]

Face too wide, hairline is wrong, sculpting of the hair itself is poor, turning his head opens up gaps in the neck, BD chest and knee are inaccurate, jacket is an awkward fit, pants overly torn at the knee. It's a great figure but it has it's issues nonetheless. This Han figure having issues only makes it consistent with the other stuff HT puts out. And I wouldn't say that the issues it does have are comparatively worse than the above issues with DX13.

You set him up, a-dev hits it out.

 

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

It's almost like they made him TOO generically handsome, and need to exaggerate some of his features a bit more.

You mean like this?

 

[DiFabio]

Damn it, I was hoping for illustrations too a-dev. You failed me for the last time.

Don't worry, they're coming.

Not to mention, too much blood on the BD face, and the endoskeleton face is stylized, unlike the EB t 800.

 

[Tee-Kay]

Almost certain it will sell out. Unless the made a ****ton like the did with EP5 Luke.

BBTS is they way to go with no NRD. (they got 24 left)

Was gonna avoid Sideshow direct anyway as Fedex makes it far too expensive with all their processing fees for overseas customers. BBTS sounds like a great option but i usually go thru Secret Compass when buying from a US (r)etailer.

Folks may be thinking about this, but you get about $25 in Rewards Points ordering through SSC. If you wait until it is eligible for one of the $20 coupons, you'll get nearly $50 off when all is said and done.

TOO handsome. Thats it. Too much Dirk Benedict.

Benedict? Pffft.... the only Harrison it looks like is Gregory.

 

[Texas Finest]

Just curious did the 2pack exclusive sell out. Im trying to order the 2pack but dont see the ex symbol anywhere am i missing aomething

Wait, since when has Sideshow given rewards points for purchases made with coupon codes? Every time I've used points or codes I don't get any rewards.

Since February of this year, retroactive back to about January 5th.

Damn, are there any other threads where I'll have to reply to this? February 2014, retroactive to purchases from January 5th or so.

It's been in effect since early this year. If you purchase anything with RP or coupon codes, you get RP for whatever amount you ended up actually paying.

Damn, I used codes for the 60s Batman and Robin and didn't get squat. Might have preordered before January though, can't remember.

Good to hear, I'll be taking advantage of this in the future. I always hated how they took it away from you.

 

[a-dev]

Don't worry, they're coming.

*strokes chin* stylised Endoskeleton ehh? Even I've never said that. Hardcore man!

 

[PopCultKid]

Woah, really? Hands definitely look big, maybe a bit too puffy in the upper body, headsculpt is Fordesque rather than bang-on....but to be honest if that's as crap as you suggest then we haven't had a single decent T-800 figure yet from Hot Toys. Likenesses, proportions and clothes have been just as variable in accuracy on those as on this.

I get what you mean and agree for the most part. Bottom line is none of these are unadulterated perfection but I think that the DX13 comes waaaay closer to the mark then this does.

Plus this isn't just another "hot right now" property that HT has become mostly used to. This is probably the most timeless set of iconic characters they have ever produced. If the best company in the biz is going to reveal 2 of the most anticipated characters that are going to fill a major void in the collecting world, they shouldn't leave the drawing board until they're 1000% sure it'll live up to the fan's high expectations.

Is the spell wearing off for you too?

Yeah, I ended up getting T-800 with a $20 off coupon AND triple rewards. Deal of the year.

 

[Matt S]

this Han Solo figure is HT's version of Pamela Vorhees. There, I said it.

 

[omagro]

I had to pre-order Han and Chewie... I will need to get a second job if more SW figures are announced for next year, I already have way too many POs
