    They look very good quality. Better than what Sideshow did. But the likenesses are still really off in my opinion. That does not look like Harrison Ford.

    You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

      ^^I thought the same thing but more than likely they might not have gotten permission. Definitely getting the Chewbacca. Finally a furry version that is done right.

        Indeed, Han Solo's sculpt is a little bit off. And Chewie as well, his face looks a bit elongated.
        But they sure look great, no doubt about it.

          Was thinking, who does that sculpt remind me of...
          Maybe it's a bit like James Marsden from X-Men?

            I think the problem is they made him too ape like. Which is unfortunately a common problem with Chewie figures. Sculpter's seem to forget he was based on a dog and not an ape.

              ^^Ha! I was thinking the same thing when I first saw the Solo sculpt. "Looks like the guy from Hop!"

                  i'd have to agree with the han solo sculpt. harrison ford is defintely one of the harder faces to sculpt.

                    Gotta stink for those who sunk a fortune into Sideshow.

                      That's what I was going to say. I was on one of the main 1:6 scale forums for years, and this was a common theme. Harrison Ford sculpts were extremely difficult to get right. I don't know enough about it to have any idea why this is so.

                        By the way, overall, they look excellent!

                          I think the han will look better in hand, but still slightly off.

                              Maybe his hair is just a bit too dark?
