Spoons' Han Hoths Updated

[spoons]

Thanks again for the appreciation chaps

cool ! wish i had the room, ....well thats not true i wish my wife would let me !!

:lol:

My other half is very understanding, but I'm limited to just a few shelves here and there. My long term plan is to convert my loft to create a display room, but it wont happen for many years.

Is that a lead bootleg in the box??

It's a Brazilian lead Model Trem, here's a close up

Is the weapon also made from lead?

 

[gustie]

nice!




any ideas on this?? molded legs????

i aint got it yet - won it yesterday

 

[craignwo4life]

Hmm, it might be a moulded legs version but sometimes it's hard to tell in photos. Another one sold yesterday for Ã'£68 so if it is you've got a bargain !! :lol:

 

[gustie]

i watched both.... and the hollow cheeks which went well out of my budget

 

[spoons]

Is the weapon also made from lead?

the weapon is lead too,

I wansn't sure on Gusties molded legs either, it would be a bargain though, one went for a BIN of Ã'£80 a couple of weeks ago :shock:

 

[gustie]

fingers crossed


it certainly looks like one i reckon

I can't see the diffferent between moulded leg and standard looking at pictures. Is there any tell tale sign to give clues?

The best way to tell the difference is by a good photo, the moulded legs are a lot more detailed. Or if you can see the peg holes, they will be all tan coloured rather than blue.

If the gloves have paint flecks missing but the legs don't then it could be moulded (like Gusties)

If you've got a not so good photo to work from its more about ruling out the mint painted leg versions.

The obvious clues are specks of blue on the legs/feet, it's most likely that these are the blue plastic showing through.

If there is tan colour directly where the base of the holster meets the leg then its a painted leg version, there is always a halo of blue on the moulded version but some painted versions are like that too so its tricky.

These loose variants show some painted clues

2nd from the left has the brown under the holster and the middle one has a tiny speck of blue on his leg.

The two right ones are very similar, the paint at the top of the legs on the moulded legs version is messier and a slightly different shade to the torso (again like gusties) but thats not always a reliable way of telling as paint fades.

 

[gustie]

is there 2 molded leg ones in your pic there??

both far right??

only the far right is moulded, the 2nd from right is the tricky one that looks moulded unless its a fantastic photo - if yours isn't moulded, it's that one

 

[gustie]

ok

spoons molded is on the left and the one i won is on the right


spoons - circled the detail near holster did u say the blue bit under there is a rell tail sign of the molded or painted??

 

[spoons]

It's fine if the bit circled is blue, it just means it may or may not be a moulded legs one.

If that bit is tan then its 99% certain that it isn't a moulded one - you'll just have to wait and see :wink:

 

[Darth Wensleydale]

Did you see this Spoons?

Nick from RS is actually selling these on ebay so he may be listing it soon.

 

[spoons]

I saw it and its very cool, I might pm him to see if he'll do a deal outside of ebay 8)

 

[boba frett]

They can't be that hard to make - as long as you can use photoshop or something.

Ask Han our resident custom expert :lol:

 

[craignwo4life]
