It’s an old sideshow GI Joe command center diorama.

I haven’t tried mine yet. Are you using a new usb cord?
It’s amazing how expensive those old sideshow dioramas go for these days. I had considered getting some when I bought up a lot of the sideshow Joes but that idea quickly faded after seeing the going rates

Yes. I meant this clean Bespin Luke.He's actually pretty dirty even in the hallway (there's also several visible tears on the pants and shirt) but the lighting and angles hide it a bit onscreen.
For me the HT super-subtle weathering works as a "generic" Luke Bespin centerpiece display, or as the Muppet Show appearance.

Yes I did. Tried multiple chargers, cables, etc. I emailed SS and they sent me a replacement no questions asked.

I did at first but tried a different cord and wall brick and it worked. I think it’s just picky.
I don't really think it's fair to just call this his "Muppet Show" look, as the outfit did look like during his arrival on Dagobah and first meeting with Yoda, which are some pretty iconic moments in the movie.
Didn't last very long...
Even if they just did basic weathering like this would be better...
Ideally, I would like this version of the figure as the "clean version":
But mostly, I'm holding out in hopes of a fully battle-damaged version with ragged uniform and chopped off hand.

He should’ve stopped at the Bespin Dry Cleaners to get his outfit cleaned and pressed for his meeting with Vader. Not a good first day impression showing up all sloppy with green goop on your shoulders. Some job interviews are tougher than others.

Quick out of the box pose with Farmboy and Jedi
Yeah that would have been my preference too, I'm just saying this is still a fair representation of his outfit looked in the actual movie. And shouldn't be dismissed as just a publicity photo or muppet show thing.
The evolution of Luke. Always wanted that as a display.
But then I just had to have his Pilot outfit... AND I've always loved the style of the Hoth clothing in Star Wars. So there's a real problem with the shut off valve on Lukes...
Yeah I'm definitely going to need to get me one of these.
Just wonder how much I could get for my DX07 clean version? Or will anyone even want that anymore?

I still have hope that SDCC will bring a new "limited edition" battle-damaged Bespin Luke from Hot Toys.
'Limited edition' meaning available everywhere eventually.

Hopefully it won’t be a Cap Steath suit situation where the site crashes and you can’t preorder it.

Last one that sold on eBay was about $150. Better off just keeping it for parts.
