INTRODUCTION
The second figure in the growing line of Ultimate Quarter Scale figures is none other than
"Hoth" Han Solo in full winter gear as he scours the surface of the ice planet Hoth.
Han Solo stands 19-inches tall, featuring voice and sound effects,
multi-layered cloth costumes, hyper-realistic sculpt and over
twenty-five points of articulation. Showcase Han Solo with the included display stand and prepare for the rest of this legendary line as it continues to grow in force!
By pushing on the stomach you can hear Han Solo say the following:
-"There isn't enough life on this ice cube to fill a space cruiser. The sensors are placed. I'm going
back."
-"Laugh it up, fuzz ball. But you didn't see us alone in the south
passage."
-"Then why you following me? Afraid I was gonna leave without giving you a goodbye
kiss?"
-"Hurry up, goldenrod, or you're going to be a permanent
resident!"
Han Solo comes with the following accessories: Blaster Pistol, Goggles, and Macrobionoculars.
On the side of the package is a nice piece by Dave Dorman.
For the second release in this quarter Scale line of dolls I can say that Han Solo is a vast improvement over Darth Maul. At least this doll is not top heavy where he would slouch over and the articulated joints are tight enough where Han Solo can hold a pose unlike Darth Maul. It is nice to see that Diamond Select
improve the quality control of this line, which I think can only get better as time goes on.
For the outfit I can say it looks nice. I would have like it if Han
Solo's hat were included as well. The only problem I can see is with the belt which is made out of a thin vinyl type material that seems to be to large for Han
Solo's waist. It is a shame that the belt is not adjustable though the metal details and buckle do make up for this small gripe of mine. Hey at least the blaster fits into the holster, that is a plus. On the belt there is a clip to hold a droid caller that is not included, maybe with the regular Han Solo that will be released later on in this line the droid caller will be included.
Speaking of accessories that come with Han Solo I kind of wish there was something more than a blaster, goggles, and macrobinoculars that he cannot even hold due to the hand gestures. It would have been nice if a second pair of hands were included so Han Solo could at least hold the macrobinoculars instead of just letting it hang over his shoulder. Maybe even
Luke's lightsaber could have been included just to give this doll more of a pop and wow factor.
The next release in this quarter scale doll is Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi as seen in Star Wars Episode
IV- A NEW HOPE. Until then have fun with Han Solo exploring the ice planet of Hoth!
