Personal Observations
Finally, Princess Leia from A New Hope! Hasbro seems to have had some trouble capturing a good Princess Leia likeness over the years, but in my opinion, this is one of the best to date in this scale. This is my favourite Leia costume, probably since it was her first, and has remained one of the most well know visuals associated with Star Wars. This Leia figure shares a Stormtrooper blaster with Luke Skywalker, just like she does in the movie, but does not come with her original blaster that she used at the start of the movie. That's a bit of a let down, but not a huge deal. Leia is a very small figure, but keeps pretty close in scale to the previously released Princess Leia in Endor Outfit. Leia sits nicely and should easily fit in most, if not all, Star Wars vehicles. Leia's split skirt is reminiscent of the original Kenner figures, and while not accurate to what we see in the movie, it gives the figure a real nostalgic vibe that should be pleasing to Star Wars fans who collected the original line. |
