Looks like it will be pretty close to the original PF.

Why?? Why not do an Empire? Ugh. Glad to see her though.

I hear you there. Doesn't help that every company just does the same characters and outfits over and over again.

I see she has to have her left hand splayed out like the recent Han and Luke.
It's clearly a unifying theme- amateurish comic book style art posing.
I'm guessing Harbottle won't be anywhere near this one.

Han's extended hand is pretty natural for the pose but yeah Luke's looks a little goofy.

I suppose this version was made relevant again by RO, I think it looks quite nice so far.

The Han PF overall just looks (to me) like an action figure someone posed.
Everything is sort of in the ballpark of how those things should be orientated for that pose, but the overall vibe is stiff and not exceptionally natural.
I thought the portrait was fine- as was the tailoring- but the pose and awkwardly contracted base just killed it for me.
I got excited for a Leia PF, but now that I realize it's likely to be executed at the same level as the last Han and Luke by the same set of artists and designers, I'm back to considering ponying up the bucks for the HT figure instead.

The first version is still awesome in my opinion. I wish they did esb as well...oh well.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

Nice to hear another Leia is in the works even if it's based on the first one. I'm definitely getting her since I'm sure the face sculpt will be improved.

I have the original and don't mind the revisit but why the heck do a pose that is freaking similar?
Same exclusive, blaster rifle?!
