Love the choice of character.  I'm sure it will be nicer than the KB exclusive from years ago.

Love it.  He/She/It is going to look good in the Jabba Display.

I like that they appear to have the glossy snot/drool thing going on from the nose to the mouth.  Gross.

 He's fatter than I expected.  I was hoping for less than $120 but that's really about what I expected.

Just be aware that this is another one of those snuck out in the middle of the night orders.  The website says it comes out with tomorrows newsletter, which typically comes out between 10 PM and midnight EST.  I can't remember the last time the newsletter actually made it to either my inbox or spam folder.  If it sells out quick, I will probably have to wait list this one.  I'm not sure if there is an exclusive version or not.

I have not ordered one. For some reason there just seems to be soemthing off. I was looking forward to it but i may end up passing.

I ended up ordering this the other day.  I am not sure if I'll end up keeping it.  I just have to see how the money is going at that point or what else SS might come out with later.  It's pretty nice looking to me.  I like the staff weapon or whatever that thing is called.  I am basically a sucker for most all of the creatures in the Star Wars films especially ROTJ and the Cantina scene in ANH.  It will be hard to cancel it if I do.  He is pretty unique looking and fun in my opinion.

Great sculpt, only looks like the fur piece bellow his belt should be  a bit longer.

Just got the processing email on this one too.  Need to cancel by Feb 7 if I'm going to cancel.  I'm torn on this one.

Overall I'm pleased with him.  He did come with alternate hands and two handed staff.
