The Mutt bust up though is meh. Would've been better slotted as Sallah or someone else.

Post by: Morgbug on April 22, 2008, 03:54 PM: Ah, so bustups aren't dead now. Excellent, I always liked these things. I'll be in for these and I'm wondering if that picture isn't just a smattering of various series. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see that they do a set for each movie. At this point I'm not a fan of Mutt either, so if they did it by movie, that could be neat.

Hoping this means the SW bustups are coming back in this form too. I know GG couldn't get LucasFilm approval for the mini-diorama stuff.

Post by: Jesse James on April 22, 2008, 06:37 PM: I had real high hopes for future SW bust-ups... Was hoping for a Tarkin and things. Disappointed that they seemingly have dropped efforts to put more out and hope you're right Brent. They haven't claimed death for them, so maybe they're just focusing elsewhere right now.

They're impossible to find in my area... Hot Topic used to have them but stopped carrying them at some point, and there is no Suncoast here any longer I believe, who always had them.
