Re: 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS298 - Star Wars: Episode IV - Leia Organa Collectible Figure
Leia arrived yesterday but I didn't have a chance to check her out until now.
As has been mentioned many times already, a most excellent head sculpt. Best HT head sculpt that I've seen in quite some time.
The dress material is actually softer than it looks. Considerably better than the material on the old SS Leia.
I don't plan on displaying her with the hood up, as even with the wires on the hood, it will be very difficult to obtain a natural flowing look. Some of the previous posted pics have come close, though.
I refuse to use that waist grabber stand piece so simply turned the "grabber" around and have her slightly leaning against the plastic stand. Unfortunately, she's got slippery soles and if not careful with the pose, she'll slide right off the grate base.
She completes my "A New Hope" figure collection and what a figure to wrap it up with.
Not my final pose but she looks amazing. (My apologies in advance for the MS backdrop...)
Pictures are up on my IG account.
