check the clothing for any blotches

Yeah, I heard about the ink spot issue on the other forum. If mine has any dots or blemishes, I'm going to ask for a replacement.

Just got mine yesterday. No spots!

She looks amazing, by the way. The tailoring and sculpt are really well done.

Mine had the spots. I already put in for a replacement.

I'm sorry to hear that, I hope your replacement is spot free! It's a really nice figure in hand.

I pre ordered mine from Sideshow. No shipping notice yet?

Where are the black spots coming from?


Good review here: 9.5/10 for likeness

..think i'll pass on The Last Jedi

Leia's white trousers don't tuck into boots too well.

It's on it's way
DHL want $67 import tax
To be honest, i tend to get a better deal from DHL when i order a Sideshow statue. I'm wondering if Sideshow help out when it comes to Sideshow statues, and doesn't help out when it comes to Hot Toys

Sideshow have said thanks for the order, and offered a $25 promo code, to be used by 15th April. I wonder if i can combine this with Sideshow points?

You generally can't combine promo codes with rewards points, I'm afraid.

Too bad. They released a $35.00 promo deal today.

What is the situation when they offer free shipping. I'm assuming free shipping can be used with either a promo code or points.

Hot Toys - Princess Leia - Hoth (figure)

Arrived yesterday

The photo’s are some quick out of the box shots, although i made some effort adding a white
towel backdrop. The pose requires more work.

All in all, first impressions are great. Hot Toys have done an excellent job. The head accessories
are difficult to attach, thus i left them off, as it made no sense to damage the head sculpt. The
Carrie Fisher likeness works well when the figure is viewed from either the left or right side.
Viewing the portrait head-on, the likeness fades slightly. I've attached the 'welding torch' which
is attached to a small silver box via a black stretch cord. To be honest, i'm not sure where the
silver box is supposed to go?

Think i'll be watching The Empire Strikes Back tonight

I have posted a few more images here:
