A solid effort but his face looks a bit Asian or Hispanic or something. Not really seeing much of Billy Dee.

ESB Snow-speeder Luke, Bespin Lando. At this rate, Bespin Han and potentially new Chewie are imminent.

In carbonite...

Nice to see the Bespin Escape Leia tease.

Nice! In my hasty excitement I missed her. I'm definitely in. I suppose carbonite Han is also possible. Interesting that the Bespin Han tease has vanished...

Very cool, but the face is not 100%. Better than our old SS one, but hope they tweak it cause this one needs to be spot on.

Not bad maybe an 8/10. Definitely in for this. Han should be soon, emphasis on should.

A solid effort but his face looks a bit Asian or Hispanic or something. Not really seeing much of Billy Dee.

I'm not seeing that but maybe a bit more dumb-happy than suave-cool.

Artists, regardless of medium, put what they know and what they see of the world into their work.

Hot Toys’s sculptors are Asian, so their portraits sometimes lean a bit more Asian in appearance than others. As an Asian myself, I do see it in their work.

This sculpt definitely feels a bit more Asian than average.

But it’s not a bad sculpt and it’s a figure a lot of us were waiting for, so I’m happy it’s finally being produced.

I think it's great. I just hope the production version looks as good.

Finally!! Bout damn time. I'm very happy with how he looks. For these promo pics to look good for once, hopefully final product looks great in hand.

I tend to agree with this assessment. I felt this was also recently apparent in an even more overt fashion with the recent Hawkeye/Ronin figure.

It was a pretty apparent issue with Old Ben but don't think any of their other SW sculpts have been an issue.
