Han Solo 1/6 Endor mini-bust

https://www.gentlegiantltd.com/star-...ite-exclusive/

It's awful. Does not even look like Han and he's about 20 lbs overweight...

Everything looks great, bar the elephant in the room - that likeness is sooo far off!

Holy crap, if you hadn't provided the link I'd have thought this was a joke. I know Gentle Giant isn't known for the best likenesses per se, but come on! They should call this one Ham Solo

Here's a video showing the digital sculpt. Personally I think Mr Taratmella did not do a very good job and thd the finished product looks even worse...

This is from a deleted scene where Han gets stung by a wicked Endor bee and he has an allergic reaction.

Years ago when they brought the four clone commando busts out they held a competition in the Forbidden Planet store in London where the winner had their head scanned and would be made into a bust them self.

With GGs issue with likenesses I always wondered who won that and what their bust actually looked like when they got it.

GG just needs to start putting Mando helmets on all the busts. It's the only thing they can sculpt lately.

I saw this posted on another forum and had to share. It still looks nothing like Harrison Ford:
