This is how I would want to display it with the different options. Whats the best way of acquiring extra stands to do this?

Plenty of generic ones on eBay. You can usually buy them in packs of 5-10 or so I recall.

I think this one looks a lot better in proportions/suit fit. Even the sculpt is better in some regards(mostly the eyes that are off to me)

Seriously?
That HS looks like a comic book artists take on Luke, not even remotely Mark Hamill
I’ll give SS this much, the HT outfit pants are like some kind of stretchy material and don’t look half as good as the SS material. The boots in the SS look better too. Also, the HT padded under suit needed adjustment/ modification. Lots o people aren’t willing/ afraid to do so. The padding restricts movement so I removed completely. That being said, I can no longer display him without ALL his clothing and instead have to go for Jabba’s palace look(which I don’t mind) In regards to the HT sculpt, I like it (even the teeth) but I don’t care for the color of the hair. It almost looks copper. This is mine WITHOUT the pad suit:

Gotta agree with you. Still haven't been able to get over how bad this head sculpt is. I'm betting you just take the head (no outfit or clues), and show it to 30 people, you might get 2 who guess it's Mark Hamill/Luke. It's pretty awful. And trust me, I wanted to like it for the Endor outfit, but the sculpt with the Endor helmet on is even worse than the one without the helmet.
I plan on bashing parts of both this and the HT version.
It's the only way to get it right as both figures have pros n cons over the other.
Ofcourse if HT get smart re-release a Bespin Luke 2.0. Then that's gonna be the winner in my Luke collection.

Why's that? Is the suit too baggy without it or do you wreck the suit getting it off?
Nah no fear of damage, but it looks too baggy without it. On the other hand, Luke’s abdomen area looks un proportionate with the fat suit in. Looks like a beer drinker[emoji38]

This is really not bad. I'm pretty much HT exclusive, but compared to spending nearly $500 for Jedi and Endor Luke, this is a nice set. Is Sideshow still using larger bodies and heads? I understand that the Darth Maul portrait was HT scale.

video, jump to 6:50.
Tailoring looks superb in this one... the only part in which HT beats this one is the head!

For me... SSC sculpt wins hands down...
If the actual figure and outfit come out looking as good as this proto, it's a no-brainer, I reckon...

Which unfortunately for SS and Luke fans, is probably the most important part to the figure. It could have Luke's original costume shrunk down from ROTJ, lol, and the head sculpt still destroys this figure. Just awful (in my opinion).

I'm very curious how the final figure will turn out... there's a lot to like on the Sideshow figure. I'm mostly interested in it as a Endor version as I really like the look of the helmeted head. So if the final product is decent I'll most likely pick it up.
There aren't many figures with detailed costumes that have survived Sideshow's Proto to Production gambit. I just don't put any faith in getting something that's on par with preorder pics.
Uh[emoji1432]id have to say that the SS Rebel Snowspeeder Luke lived up to the proto pics. The outfit is OUTSTANDING and it’s one of my favorite figures.
