yeah, definitely ordered. I have way too many HT Star Wars pieces at this point.

Production shots
Likeness wise some shots work better than others. It still rates as possibly the best Leia likeness so far.
This shot looks excellent!


New production photos have been released for the Hot Toys 1:6 scale Princess Leia figure from the movie Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. The likeness is outstanding on this figure and a big step up from their previous attempt. Really impressed by this!

Nice likeness, but too much of a neutral expression which plagues Hot Toys figures.

The neutral expression is perfect for Princess Leia, as she rarely cracks a smile

I think she looks fantastic. The ANH figure had a good likeness, but this one is even better somehow.

I can't wait to add her to my collection.

From the right side, the figure looks less like Leia


From the front / left side, the figure looks more like Leia


This shot manages to look completely like Leia

I'm not sure if its the figure, camera or lighting, but in the 3rd video, Leia does not look as good as in the 1st two videos.


This is my favourite review - these guy's performing *that* tune from Empire
