Yeah HT I guess had to make the jacket too short so the gloves would work. If you look at the costume it really should come down more over the hand almost to the knuckle

Absolutely incredible figure. Here's a few quick shots I took.

Only small issue is that without the gloves on, it can be hard pulling those sleeves down far enough to cover the wrist pegs.

Does taking the fat suit off help with the jacket and wrist joint exposure?
 
Still waiting on thegoodthebadandtherobots to get theirs in. First time using them so fingers crossed it all goes ok.

Nothing that hasn't been said, but I'm happy to add to the praise. Lovely release and a marked improvement over the Red 5 SS fig occupying my orange flight suit space in my collection. Probably should work on moving that fig out of the collection tbh.

I'm thinking I'll swap out the ROTJ V1 Luke sculpt and use that for the helmet here, and keep the improved paint apps ESB one on center display on Jedi Luke. I'm just lazy right now and don't want to swap collar protectors to prevent staining from the black tunic. But eventually that's the plan. No problems with incompatibility with the helmet and hair pieces reported that I missed? I believe last I saw it was good to go.
 
Love my figure! A little annoyed that Sideshow never double boxes and my last two Hot Toys orders showed up with dented/crimped boxes from UPS. It's an almost $300 figure after all, and the box is part of the collectible at that price point. Anyone have luck asking Sideshow to double box orders? :(

Count yourself a lucky one that their not sending you used figures
 
Got mine today and it’s a great figure. Love the weathering on the suit and how it looks used. Sculpt is really good too. One of the best Hot Toys releases in a while.

The only thing I don’t particularly care for is the stand/waist grabber. It looks good if you’re doing a Hoth display, but for the Dagobah look not quite as good if you ask me. Still not bad though.
 
Finally had some time over the past weekend to set this one up. Wow! This figure has such a great shelf presence. Looks amazing! The last time I felt this enthusiastic for a figure was for the one to the right of him. 😊
