Definitely less realistic here, but I am not a fan of the shiny bewildered Luke head from Hot Toys.

I see it! Think it’s a reflection of someone’s clothes?

I like the outfit , but that jolly rancher looking saber blade
With all those air pockets looks like a Kenner blade. You’d think they’d use a quality one for a convention display.
Also good eye on catching that walker in the reflection/stand Adam1138!

It's their style of sabers. See Snowspeeder Luke blade. More of an in action flickering/shimmering look.

Ok... this low-res shot makes it look like it has bubbles/casting issues.
not my picNo doubt SSC always beats HT in outfit tailoring . That’s one thing they do beautifully

Outfit does look great.

The sculpt looks a bit idealised, but overall I still really like it. And the outfit looks great, I think it even may top the HT version.

The outfit is excellent, and if the other outfit/accessories (Endor, etc) are as good, it might be ideal to get the SS fig, and then some other headsculpt... to use the SS head with the Endor outfit, and some other HS for the Jedi look.
I'm amazingly bummed that with HT showing off Endor Luke for well over a year now, and now not showing him off anymore and releasing Crait Luke...was sort of getting tempted to pick up the SSC for the Endor sculpt, but man, I just can't get passed the headsculpt. It def looks like...someone...but not Luke/Mark Hamill.
"I'm gonna say... this sculpt looks much better than the Hot Toys one. That is... dead on."

I need to see the production version with the Endor gear on. If that looks good I'm probably down for one of these. I assume HT will eventually release the Endor version because Jedi Luke came with removable hair but who knows when??? 2027?

It is a very different style. Hot Toys is uber realistic and "textured". Sideshows are more like a premium format figures. The skin is paler, less highlights. The Hot Toys have the shiny skin and goldish highlighted hair. I like both but some Hot Toys expressions suck and Sideshow tend to have dead eyes. To each their own, but really it is a different style completely. Actually from taking pictures and running them through "celebrity look a like" Hot Toys scores low, Threezero's Game of Thrones figures fair much better.
