Judging by the profile it?s the same damn HT Jedi Luke sculpt
You sure ? Colours and backpack missile shape don't match so well ?

Color is likely affected by lighting and being in the background.
He had a different jet pack during the Geonosis arena battle. This looks like that one.

His Geonosis jetpack is totally different. I dunno I don't really see who else it can be.

OK, after some more googling I see the jetpack does change.
Also you can see the leather blaster holsters on his thighs too.
Good we got that cleared up
Hope there are some other newbies shown. Hopefully we don't have to wait until the Hot Toys part of the Sideshow Con.

Yeah, he uses that other jetpack during his fight with Obi-Wan where he climbs up the side of a Kaminon column like a spider monkey and shoots his missile at Obi-Wan’s feet which sends him flying and serves as a mild inconvenience.
Wowwwww!!
Where did this image come from? HT or SSC social media? I thought nothing started fro another 10-12 hours?
I also wonder where this was taken. Maybe it's just at Sideshow's or HT's offices and a SSC employee will do the tour later?

Looks like my SS Red 5 Luke is on the cutting block now.

Sweet! Hope this tops the SS, no small order.

Based on the very little we've seen, jacket looks tighter, helmet paint sharper and brighter, and gloves less bulky.
The Hot Toys booth tour isn't until 4pm Pacific time.

Well, in the Hoth scenes the jacket was quite bulky. For the Dagobah scenes a tighter jacket would probably be good.
The SSC version has the most shelf presence of any SW figure, so this one has to be very good to beat it. That said I?m building a Snowspeeder, so I?ll need two extra pilots

Yeah, I've spent a long time poring over screen captures and promo shots for this costume. It can look very different shot-to-shot. My primary interest in HT over the SSC release was the near certainty that paint apps on the helmet and face sculpt would be superior -- so long as this goes up for pre-order it's an instant purchase for me.
