Hot Toys DX24 & DX25 Bespin Luke Skywalker (Regular and Exclusive versions)

[nm.ct]

We all know how proud Howard is to get actors to pose with his figures. Now Imagine him popping his popcorn and sitting down to watch this - the American (world?) television debut of any HT figure..



..and then note we haven't had a Han or Indy figure since. I really believe it's that simple.

I literally just reacted to this and went back to the Facebook tab...and holy b@lls...

 

[Misterscruff]

The new Indy figure from HT kinda disproves the theory that they hate HF.

 

[sithocan]

Dangerous and disturbing this puzzle is.

No no no! Don’t you understand? This means that they finally forgave Ford for disrespecting and dishonoring them on live TV

 

[fantasticfrog]

I’m so glad I was complaining! Old man Indy is not for me, but we have……..hope

 

[fantasticfrog]

But Harrison hates han and probably only approved because it’s Indy. I love conspiracy.

 

[Jedi_Col]

I think after the ST he probably decided he was done with SW for good, and stopped giving out any approvals for his likeness. Or at least for anything in 1/6.

At least assuming this is a Ford thing and not a Howard Chan thing. Although Chan is such a big SW fan I can't imagine anything would keep him from wanting to make Han figures if he could.

Considering there's a new Indiana Jones...I'm extremely baffled by this...it's starting to really aggravate me that we don't have a Bespin Han but they cranked out Indy

 

[Wor-Gar]

Not necessarily. This Indy is certainly a Disney license-holder requirement.

Let's see if HT makes other Fords. (Though a Flashback "Young" Indy is possible)

 

[Vortex]

Well ****, I guess we all just kind of willed a HF figure into existence

Not the HF figure we have all been waiting for but a HF figure nonetheless.

We clearly need to do a better job with our conjuring powers.

 

[Mr.Tanker]

My theory is still that Hot Toys cannot get Disney/Lucasfilm to sign off on approval of an OT Han sculpt. They made them change the ANH Han so last minute that the box still featured the original prototype sculpt.
This new Indy may just be using the Force Awakens sculpt as a base.

 

[ScoutingForToys]

They're doing old "Last of The Summer Wine" Indy but I'll be more hopeful for an OT Han if they do a young Indy.

HT Han Bespin better sell like a million copies the way people are griping and moaning for it.

It will be like HT Snowspeeder Luke -- people cried for it for years, now its still sitting in the warehouse on its third or fourth discount sale.

Just unboxed my Deluxe and he looks terrific with Yoda and R2! The sculpt is really great in-hand. Overall great figure!

Make that the fifth, as its back on sale.

Just opened up Bespin Luke and oh yeah, this really is a massive improvement over my DX07. And for some reason the sculpt seems to work a whole lot better here than on the Mando Luke I briefly owned.

Can't wait to see your pose...

You mean a Rob Lowe hairpiece didn't help the Luke likeness?

Was able to swap the legs from the dx7 to the dx25 body.
