Title: Hoth Han & Chewie
Post by: Boba Binks on April 29, 2003, 07:34 PM
As many of you have probably seen on the front page I found the Hoth Han and Chewie figures today at Target.

Here is the picture
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/4-03/targetfigures.jpg)


Hoth Han:
Sculpt- B - I like the sculpt for the most part. Once again Hasbro has given Hoth Han a very Wide Legged Stance.

Features- C - He has a button on his back to make him turn fron teh sid eot the front to recreate lightsaber action. For this figure I would not have given him any action feature.

Accessories- A - Lightsaber, Removable Face Mask, Blaster that Fits into holster, and the computer thingy.

Overall- I give this figure a B



Chewbacca:
Sculpt- A - Again Chewbacca is getting better than that Harry and the Henderson's Chewie that we got with POTF2 in 1995. Lots of detail, it seems that Chewie is always improving. This Chewbacca has lots of articulation and can be posed in many ways. But I think he looks best crouching holding his bowcaster.

Features- None

Accessories- A - Chewbacca comes with his signature Bowcaster which is larger than previous verions and had a red blaster-bolt that can be inserted and fired. He also comes with a rubbery translucent Mynock with a suction cup on the mouth.

Overall- I give this figure an A

Sounds cool! I am excited to find these. As much as I love all the figures, Im always more anxious about OT stuff

Hey David, most of the pictures I have seen of the Han shows that the coat is much darker blue than the original prototypes almost black and your pictures seem to bear that fact out, care to comment :)

Yes the Han Coat is very Dark Blue.
Maybe the blue will get lighter in color as more of them get released out there before the make the change to brown.
