Soft and likeness just off. We won’t get another high end QGJ for a while which I’ll bite but this is a weak sculpt.

I don't know...the sculpt looks fine to me. I feel as though the lighting in some of those pictures is throwing it off a bit. I see Neeson and I see Qui-Gon. I think maybe some of the fine details are missing from the prototype but that always happens. I'm sure we'll keep seeing more photos that will give more clarity in the coming days and weeks.

The sculpt always looks much better in hand. I try to remember when looking at these photos that the head is in reality about an inch tall so on the shelf, the likeness always looks pretty good to me. I'm anxious to get him in for sure!

Looks more like Chris O’Dowd playing QGJ.

I always feel the sculpt looks much "darker" in hand!!

I am really on the fence with Qui Gonn. The figure looks fantastic but still questioning if I need it. But on the other end I feel that this may be the last 1/6 figure at the $240 price range. As we all have been seeing they are in the $280 range now. In addition the next batch of interesting figures (Jango, Snowspeeder Luke) are scheduled for 2022. My last purchase was Dooku and Maul (EP1) in 2019. So there is a HUGE gap between my Maul and 2022 (if I agree to pay $280 prices). Yeah I know problems nobody will care about……even my wife!!

The price really depends on accessories. I mean Lando literally went up a couple weeks ago for $235. Jango is $280 since he comes with a bunch of other stuff.

When did you place your order? I'm still waiting on mine but granted, I didn't place my order until last month so I'm guessing I won't be in the first batch.

Nothing for me either but I jumped in pretty late.
Sideshow charging me tomorrow.
It?s been so long since I last purchased a Hot Toys figure. R2D2 deluxe was the last, whenever that was.
Their choices are not appealing at all. Still waiting and hoping for OT C3P0, Battle Droid, Padme, and General Grievous.
