Yep, I would like to know what color does your figure of Slave Leia have? What's the color of her top, rock and shoes?

Normally I would ask this in the costume & props board and I have already asked in my own FF, but all answers I got until now are "it looks like (..) on the pic". But this is the problem. Every pic looks a bit different and so I got three to four different color suggestions.

That's why I thought about you, who collect models, because the colors on those figures have to be 'approved' - at least more or less.

So I would like ask you to take a look at your Slave Leia figure and to tell me what colors are her top, rock, shoes and of course the ornaments. It would be really nice, if you could add what kind of model you have (maybe there are differences as well).

It would be great, if you could help me! happy

Thanks, Mike, but I was there already, even tried to join their club, visited a couple other websites, but I haven't got any good answers yet. That's why 'you're my only hope'. wink

    Skiara - be sure to check out the Rebelscum photo archives as well for pics of Slave Leia figures. The site is down at the moment but hopefully it will be back up later today. (I think they do server stuff around this time because I often find it down during my morning).

    Thanks, LAJ, but the problem with photos are that the color of those pics are shown differently on the computer (due to the quality of the camera, the graphic card, the graphic program, the monitor etc.). So it doesn't really work, because I have found tons of photos of Sleia already, but at the same time the same amount of colors (if you include the nuances as well).

    That's why I hope some one of you have a Sleia figure and could tell me what color it looks like. happy


    Is there anyone who has a Slave Leia figure? praying

    Actually, JED1 has one of the Slave Leia statues. You could try dropping him a PM. He's usually on fairly often since he is the Scotland Fan Force CR.

    Hi Skiara

    I have both the Attakus and Gentle Giant statues and can confirm the following.

    Her cloth Bikini top is gray as are her boots, the metal covering the bikini top, her hair clasp, her armlette, her bracelet, her chain and the covering plate over her bikini bottoms is not pure gold as people first think but a golden bronze. Her "skirt" under the metal plate and covering her bottom is a burgandy purple. The trim at the top of her grey boots is also a golden bronze. I assume the bottoms (her panties) will also be grey and will also be some sort of thong as they cannot be seen from the side of her upper thigh, only the metal can be seen from the side!
    Her hooped earings are also golden bronze!

    Hope this helps! and good luck with your project! happy

    Bikini top - gray
    shoes - gray
    all metals - golden bronze
    skirt - burgundy purple

    And I really thought or maybe I should say better 'hoped' that the top and shoes were moss-green, because I don't like gray that much. That means, that I'm in a conflict now: Shall I do a more 'original' costume (gray) or shall I do my own (moss-green)? I think I have to mediate on this. tongue

    Thanks, George! grin
    You helped me a lot! Even if I got into another conflict. wink tongue


    Edit: Does the bikini top on this pic look like gray or green for you all? For me it's moss-green. tongue

    A bit of both, actually. The left cup of the top does look like it has a greenish tinge while the right cup looks more gray. I think it must be down to the lighting for the photo.

    That might be, but before you mentioned the different shade of the cups, I haven't realised that. I'm glad that my eyes and my computer don't seem to be that bad. tongue

    And I'm especially glad to know the 'true' color now. hugs
