New 12" Gamorrean Guard.
« on: January 18, 2003, 11:43 PM »
Well the new picture of the 12" Gamorrean Guard is starting to make headlines all across the SW universe.
This figure looks very sweet & looks heavy. Very nice detail from what I can see & the weapons look great too.
For more information, check out the main page.

I think I will land up getting this put on my wish list.  ;)

Looks kinda of beefy, wonder where i am going to find room to display a couple of them :)
Gonna have to make a custom 12" (24") Jabba and do a 12" throne room diorama. Lando skiff is coming out and I have most of the others from that scene.

I can't wait for this figure to come out.  I'm still debating about doing the whole pre-order thing or just buy it when it's out and about.

he does look way dope, so i'll be picking him up :) It would be cool if he had "slime" details around his mouth... hell, maybe he does, i didnt look that closely cause his breath smelled so bad...

I have one on order. I will be placing him with my other Jabba's Palace 12". For a Jabba I am using my Foam Replica Jabba that was issued a few years back.
For those of you looking for me. I am now at www.sandtroopers.com

he looks like he has the same size box as the Leia/han 2 pack... I don't think he will be able to go on the wall. But yeah, you can always scoot your amidalas over and put him on the table :)

Just saw him in my local KB toy store.  He is AWSOME!!

I ususally don't like 12" figs but I'm definitely going to be picking one up.   I might wait till KB drops the price like they always do but I'm going to get one.
Stressed out?  Poop.  It'll make you feel better.

I own exactly one 12" figure, the Han and Tauntaun.  However, when I find him, this bad boy is coming home to my apartment.  He will be a centerpiece in my eventual Gammorean Guard collection (which I haven't gotten around to starting yet, unless you count the POTF2 fig and the Applause figural mug.  Maybe buying this will jump start that collection)

I saw the new 12" Gamorrean Guard for the first time today at one of my local KB's.  Picked up an extra for anyone who wants one (for retail of course).

One thing that I think looks pretty crappy on the four different ones that I looked at, is the area around his eyes.  It's all black, and looks very much like he's got one of those mysterious little eye masks on ala the Lone Ranger or Zorro.  Looks bad IMO...  The rest of him looks pretty cool though!   8)
