Title: Gentle Giant Jumbo Vintage Jawa
Post by: Darby on July 15, 2010, 08:10 PM
I'll be all over the Jawa, but I'm kind of wondering what the aim of all this is - what does everyone else think?

The card back shows they'll have them (soft goods for the Jawa).

Oh man, I want this!  I have the Vader on its way, but I'd love to get the Tatooine aliens -- Walrusman, Greedo, Hammerhead, and a Jawa.  It looks fan-freakin-tastic with that vinyl cape!

Good lord, is that what this costs?  I would love one, but not for more than $75-100.

I would love just one toy from this line, but can't pull the trigger for the $75ish. $1350!!!!!! No words.

That's pretty awesome.  Do you have to ruin the package to get it out or do they have a way to open and reseal it?
Title: Re: Gentle Giant Jumbo Vintage Jawa
Post by: User897 on August 9, 2011, 01:18 PM
The package is completely collector friendly.  You just lift some pieces of tape and open the back.  It was designed very well.

If I ever wander into a toy shop/show and any character of these things is there I think I'm going to cave. So cool.

Thanks fellas.  I was trying to convey that, afterall, these ARE toys.  :)

Big Jawa destroy!  Big Jawa push Sandcrawler over cliff!

Was the Boba Fett an exclusive?

Indeed.  I am still hoping and praying that GG releases Boba Fett again on a Star Wars card.  I couldn't afford the exclusive at the time it came out, and I REALLY can't afford it now.
