About 10 days ago I recieved a very cool Boba Fett Gentle Giant figure which we video reviewed. All was well and we knew Gentle Giant were releasing the others in the Jumbo or 'big ass' range as I call it. Boba=awesome. Stormtrooper, now I want one. However, here's where it just gets silly...
If you dont know there were two versions of Han Solo in the old, old Vintage line and one with (to me) a daft looking fat head. They changed the line or whatever happened but to 'honour' this kinda cock up, you can buy one these with the large head. Seriously? Yeah nice touch, but really? Your gonna buy fat head Han here? For $75USD + Shipping?
The small head version is thankfully the one thats getting the bigger release along with chewie, with small head Han and Chewie a limited edition of 2500 pieces each, where as Big Head Han is limited to 2000 pieces.(Cough-discount clearance shortly..cough) Gentle Giants web site seems to have had these removed just aftre telling us about them, but frankly their web site always, always seems to have broken links. Your supposed to be able to order if a member but not working for me. Let us know if you have any luck.
In the meantime check out our slideshow of High Res Jumobo Vintage images below or view them directly on Picasa (use the magnify glass to get up close or download.
