Princess Leia (Hoth Version) is a good figure. It is one of the few Hot Toys figures to make it into my somewhat small Hot Toys collection.

Jazzinc is offer second chance preorder on their Hoth diorama. I passed on both ESB Leia figures. Slight regret.

Just got this in and, gotta say, I'm really impressed and hugely satisfied with it.
Seems like the last three or four HT purchases I've made were all based more on FOMO than burning desire.
This was the first in years that I saw, instantly liked, and was happy to wait for.
It did not disappoint!

I'm trying to wean myself out of all this kind of stuff and am mostly out of statues now.

1/6 may be harder to walk away from than I expected. Price, space requirements, shipping costs, ease of resale (which includes the % hit you take when interest ebbs, along with value increases on occasion) all these factors make this stuff even more attractive now than when i cannonballed in about five years ago.

The last thing I need weighing me down is more stuff
- but when they come out this well...

Did you order yours from Sideshow?
I did, thus figured i'd be waiting a while longer yet..
..compared to Japanese buyers, so of whom picked up Luke some week's back.

No, it was a US retailer a couple states away (Alter Ego). But I'm sure they get theirs from SSC, so it shouldn't be that much longer for anybody waiting. At least I would think.

Fortunately it'll be worth the wait

I have watched some in hand YouTube videos, as Luke turned out great!
