1/6 Hot Toys - Star Wars Episode IV - 1/6th scale Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper Disguise

[Centrocal]

I'd sell medi Luke while theres still a chance

 

[galactiboy]

Last one sold for $99.99 and free shipping on eBay; just a slight bit off of retail

Re: Hot Toys - Star Wars Episode IV - 1/6th scale Luke Skywalker in Stormtrooper ...

Haaaaaa!!!! LOL Yes. Jody foster has been waiting a long time for this one!

Well, it's true that Jodie Foster auditioned for Leia in 1976. Skywalker family resemblance?

Can't bring myself to sell my Medi Luke. The led saber is too nice to part with. Even if the head looks like Clarise from Silence of the Lambs.

How does it compare to the HT Kenobi saber?

 

[jedijim3002]

It's pretty comparable. Seems to be just as bright but the blade is a little wider. It may be a bit brighter.

 

[TonTon]

Thanks for the pics! Yeah the blade definitely comes across as wider--maybe brighter at the base and less so toward the tip--at least that's what's coming across in the pics. The new Luke one is supposed to be brighter than the Kenobi one. Interested to see that one.

For those of us awaiting delayed Stormtrooper Lukes from Hong Kong, I made a search on the HK Airport flight schedule for cargo flights landing at Cologne.

There are three flights tomorrow, and all are UPS:

If they don't make one of those, there's another on the 23rd:

23 NOVEMBER 2015
17:40	5X 001	Cologne	UPS

Since they all end up at Philadelphia these are also probably the flights that bring in stock for Sideshow's US warehouse.

 

[Tee-Kay]

That is some serious investigation work there

 

[Wor-Gar]

Good god you guys are serious.

Mind looking for where the Paris attackers are hiding while you're at it? The police could use your help.

 

[jedijim3002]

LOL^^^

Brendon Gleeson?

Come on, be fair... Mark Hamill is in his 60's now. Tom Cruise is only in his very early 50's. Mark Hamill is also a smoker if I'm not mistaken and it ages your skin.

Good god you guys are serious.

 

[swiftwilly]

Thanks

He's departed from Hong Kong at last .

As with Luke X-Wing, no ETA.

The only one with an ETA (Thursday 26th) is the TIE Pilot. But he hasn't left Hong Kong yet.

Those from the UK who are getting these now, where did you order from? Ordered mine from sideshow directly and have final payment going out the 5th of next month so in hoping for a before X-Mas delivery but i'm
not holding my breath.

I need my next sideshow fix
