It'll either be the entire orange flight suit, or nothing at all.

I really like this idea! Sideshow rarely reveals concept art, so this is an interesting play from them.

At the moment, the XM Luke is my only Luke statue in the collection. This could be a nice companion piece for it.

Luke wearing a uniform?

Sideshow do not even THINK of making this fully sculpted.

A uniform = MIXED MEDIA.

Do not make it look like a plastic toy. A character wearing a suit, a uniform etc = ALWAYS mixed media.

But i bet that Sideshow already knows it and understood why her latest 2 Jokers were a fail (they were fully sculpted, but Joker wearing a suit, fully sculpted = a STRONG, a very strong toyish, plasticky vibe).

Star Wars collectors want fully sculpted statues, not dolls. Stick to Hot Toys if you want that.

I prefer mix media but this will most likely be fully sculpted like they’ve been doing lately.

Wrong, wrong and wrong.

Whenever you want realism, mixed media is a must. A must for a character wearing a suit, a uniform.

So Madam Tusssauds does not know and average Joe knows? Infinity, Queen, JND having mixed media for characters with suits, uniforms do not know and average Joe knows.

It is the COMPLETE OPPOSITE, pal.

Fully sculpted for a character wearing a suit oozes a plasticky, a toyish vibe. Like a toy bought for 15 bucks in a toy store.

Characters with tight costumes eg Captain Marvel or Flash etc NEED to be fully sculpted.

Nevertheless, characters like Joker, Two-Face, Ghostbusters and THIS Luke wearing a fuc... uniform NEED mixed media.

Fully sculpted on characters wearing suits or uniforms = plastic toy bought for dirty cheap.

It is so simple and i am still amazed how guys CANT get it. Character with a tight costume = SCULPTED. Character with a suit, baggy uniform = MIXED MEDIA.

PERIOD. END OF DISCUSSION.
