Gentle Giant Mini-Busts
Dave:
Wow. That's an impressive collection of Detolf cabinets >:D
Rob:
Not sure if anyone here still cares, but the speculation and reporting is that Gentle Giant has been shuttered as part of Diamond being closed. I don't think there's official word, but they seem to have gone silent and there are a few articles on collecting sites saying that's the expectation.
GrandMoffNick:
I have some of the Jumbo Vintage figs pre ordered. That would be disappointing not to get those.
Jeff:
I have seen some speculation that maybe the Diamond/Gentle Giant stuff could be processed through NECA since the group that bought Diamond in bankruptcy also owns NECA, but others are speculating that with the tariffs, it might be easier/cheaper for the new guys to just walk away and cancel any orders in-process.
Tough break for all of the folks involved though.
Rob:
Yeah on one hand I've been collecting these nearly 20 years and am going to be sad that it's over. On the other, my detolfs are all full and I don't have room for another one and I was spending $2000 to $3000 a year on them. So I'm really okay with it.
The real issue is that I'm owed a Force Awakens Han that I paid for, and I bought the club membership so I'm also expecting a Floppy Hat Luke next year that is paid for.
The only announced one that I'll be very sad if it doesn't get finished is Bom Vimdin. :(
