WOW! So the Gree is being found in Battle Damaged sets....that at least helps a little bit.

My delivery e-mail now has been updated to say that I should receive my two sets on 12/24.....they gonna deliver on Christmas Eve Day?  That's weird, but I'll take it....

Yeah, this line gave a headache way back when I first saw the announcement of the holo Vader and Emperor 2-pack with the Dark Horse trade paperback....right there and then I sold most of mine....changed my strategy to only buying the ones I like
and I am happy with that.

Jsut so happens I really like all of these...the regular ones only.

Pretty cool but with limited space I will pass on this one....now if they had for sale the one that they gave away as a PEPSI Promo piece I might bite on that one.

I woul dbe very suprised if after putting all the work that is required to make a bust (sculpting, prototype developing, tooling and running the machines) that they would only do all that for 200 busts from which they are not making any money.

If I was a betting man, I would say that we will see a Salicious Crumb "mini-bust" (what else can we call it?) in 2006

Remember, Gentle Giant has not annoucned all of the busts we are going to see in 2006...only a few of them so far.

I am so glad I am not a completist of these or I would be annoyed.  Just one set of the regulars will be fine with me.

I thought a while back we had heard (maybe it was at the SDCC Hasbro presentation) that this was going to be a Walmart Exclusive?

Oh, well.....it's a nice piece but with all my space being taken up by my GG collection, not sure where I would put this.

The Han from series 6 is the only one I might buy....depends how good it turns out.

But I do agree....I am real glad that this line is continuing....gives GG a chance to make "busts" of secondary characters that might not sell as well if they were $40+

You all seen the new Gentle Giant Blog?

Kind of cool in my opinion....Eric Lyga from GG posted there yesterday with a very thorough explanation regarding delayed products....choice of characters.....edition sizes and quality control issues.....a good read.

I might use the sale to get the Collectors Society .45 Maul saber and .45 ROTS Vader saber to go with my GG statues.

Anybody know what are the next .45 scale sabers coming out?

As long as they keep making them I am not too concerned on how many of each they make.  They better they (Gentle Giant, not the secondary resellers) do in sales, the longer this line will last.

I was talking to a friend and the day that Gentle Giant stops with Star Wars I will be so depressed.
