Princess Leia in Boushh Disguise - #16
- Thread starter GNT
- Start date
This is a must have. One of my favorite vintage figures.
This one is up near the top of my want list, can't wait to get it!!! Just hope it turns out nice!!! I just noticed that I can no longer find it on dorkside, have they taken it down??? All I see "new" is C3PO!!!!
I'm going to be cauitious on this one after buying the Slave Leia.
I've got to have this one to go with my SDCC Jabba! It will make more sense to have her there with Carbonite Han since slave leia was never in a scene with carbo Han.
Yeah, same here! Leia and Lando in the disguises they wore in RotJ have always been two of my favorite figures in practically every form released. I hope we get some sort of prototype image before Toy Fair.
And I might need a second Chewie now, as the prisoner of Boushh.
I'm excited for Leia Boushh; I personally wanted to see this version (or Endor General) released first. I'm curious to see if they will give her a removable helmet or two head sculpts. I'm slightly weary as the Vader shots we've seen don't make me feel all that good about removable helmets. Also, if she came with the carbonite block I would be over the moon happy.
Surely this will mean interchangeable heads, right? Please tell me we're not getting a Leia head that a helmet can squeeze over.
Should have been the first Leia in the place. 
Assuming it's on par with the rest of the series, instant pre-order.

If she did come with a carbonite block, it would be cool if it was painted to like like it was in mid-thaw so that we get something different.
Oh, boush and not bush. Right. Less excited now.
Depending on how this looks, I would be interested.
Doubt they'd do 2 heads but I don't mind a removable helmet feature so either way I'd be happy.
I think they can pull this off just fine. Look at both X-Wing Luke and also the upcoming Stormtrooper Han. Both look great.
With Vader, I believe I'm in the minority when I say I like it, but I also understand that they did something special with that helmet, concerning with the way it separates into multiple pieces. I don't think that's going to be an issue with Boushh Leia. I'm sure it'll be a helmet to fit over top just like the vintage Kenner release did.
This one looks awesome, and it's the one I'm most looking forward to!!! Can't wait!!!
Here is a good face on shot!!!

That is really a good looking fig
Yeah, if the Slave Leia had that head sculpt he would have sold much better.
Very cool. Can't wait to own this one. Hasbro sure is givin' us lots of Boushh...
What a great looking figure. I'm looking forward to this.
If this is what we can expect (or even just damn close to this), then I'm very excited. This figure does look great. It seems the eyes are a bit cartoonish, like the latest Luke release, but that doesn't bother me. The sculpt of the face is great. I love the removable helmet. It's a better version of my old Kenner figure. Can't wait to get my hands on it.
It was desperately needed IMO. Slave Leia was a disaster.
But agreed... Best new 6" from among the sneak peaks.
Although I keep hoping they made a mistake in the announcement and that those 2-Pack Jawas are really BS6 bound.
There's absolutely no way that the actual figure will end up looking nearly as good as the prototype - as far as paint on the headsculpt is concerned - but in general it will be a decent addition to the line anyway.
Don't kill my hope! I know you're right, but I don't want to listen to you at all right now.
Bring on the Boushh!
Yeah, there are a lot of derpy Slave Leias out there. Let's hope Hasbro brought in some new factory workers and Leia Boushh comes out looking decent.
If I had to take a guess, I'd say the 3.5" and 6" Boushh were created from the same digital sculpture. They appear too similar - they even share the same neck joint, which to my knowledge has rarely, if ever been used in the 3.5" scale. I'm thinking they sculpted her digitally, manipulated the size to use for both the 3.5" and 6" lines, and then made a few changes, such as the knee joints.
3.5"
6"
3.5"
6"
These both look excellent. I only pick up select 6" figures, she is on the borderline for me.
The 3.75" looks amazing and is a must add to my complete Jabba palace/skiff collection. I just hope the detonator is removable.

Nice figure...and Slave Leia was not bad, just had to select through the pegs to get a good eye one. Isn't the Jawa 2-pack BS6? Looks big to be 3.75" Jawas.
This is the nicest figure out of these reveals. I like the head sculpt, and love the accessories. Seems like a good match on soft goods, too. I wish the readout on the mask was darker, so I could finely paint those digital lines in...or if that would have been done for me. But that is just a minor, minor point of feedback.
Wow, you are very forgiving. The neck of Slave Leia is just awkward. Paint apps definitely play a part in it too, but the sculpt was terrible IMO.
This I like very much. I too want to see her with the helmet on, but either way I'll be picking it up.
And those are my thoughts about the Jawas
