Gentle Giant
What can I say about GG that hasn't already been plastered
across multiple forums? They have terrible crown control
and I don't think they've yet to figure out how to handle an
exclusive.
It's too bad because they consistently put out some of the
nicest items. Most of the items in their cases were
already debuted at Toy Fair earlier this year but there were a
few surprises including awesome Tusken Raider and Admiral Ackbar
busts.
We finally got a good look at the 1:6th scale R2-D2 statue that
will complement both your bust and statue collections. A
new Darth Maul with Speederbike was on display along with the
kneeling Vader that we've seen photos of on-line.
If you like the animated maquette line then you're going to love
the Han and Chewy statues that are coming.
The highlight of the booth had to have been the life sized Jabba
the Hutt! They even arranged a photo opportunity for fans
dressed as Slave Leia on Saturday.
