Original Star Wars Figures - Giant Sized

[Werewolf]

I mean, even the Leia was awesome.

Yeah, she was awesome. Her and Luke were my favorites at the show. I still really dig the old school Kenner style light sabers.

These figures are cool enough and all, but being that they're new (though based on old), this thread should have been in the modern toys section, shouldn't have it?

There is one, and it came before this one.

It's a weird feeling to know you are going to buy something and there is not a damned thing you can do about it.

I was putting it the same way in my brain!

[weatherwizard-Corey]

They're great! but even $50 is a bunch!

[MegoAddict]

i really like these i gotta say..wow

[Pascal]

I can not find on any site a way to preorder one of these figurines. Do you have an address?

[Brue]

I think I like them.

Though i am not sure how they would be displayed. These were not very detailed tiny figures. At 12 inches they would look a little odd on display.

[nvmbrsdoom5]

I really, really want these.

[Brue]

They should have made them 8" instead!

That woouldda made from some cool customizing.

Beides that I like the iea of blowing them up in size but 12 inches is a little too big for these. 2 ups would look better.

[starsky]

are they packaged on some type of removable blister?

[Remco Monster]

are they packaged on some type of removable blister?

I certainly hope the packaging is collector friendly. As amazingly cool the backer cards are, they would take up a ton of room, and I want to display these loose. Destroying the packaging would be torture for me.

These are very cool to me, but I wouldn't pick them up if they were $20, so at $85 there's just no way. I really do like them. I think someone I know needs to get a set and put them on display at their place. That way I can still enjoy them when I'm hanging out over there, but not have to spend $1,000 to buy them myself!

[megoscott]

I'm not certain, I forgot to ask, but I think it's a clamshell kind of package, yeah.

I think these are some of the coolest things ever created by human beings. It's vintage Star Wars combined with a pop-art aesthetic, and it's really, really hard not to fall in love with it. Like some other members here, Star Wars is what started it all for me. But I'm a little disappointed Gentle Giant is the company making these. I don't think it would have been that far-fetched for Hasbro to produce these in the thousands and sell them at Toys R Us for 20 bucks. Everyone I know is salivating for them; I don't think they're as "niche" as the big companies are supposing. Incidentally, if the sales go through the roof and they try to produce all 92, at $50 each that's $4,600. At $85 each, that's $7,820. Not to mention, you're entire guest room.

Not practical for most of us, but if they do produce all 92--you know someone's gonna go for it.

What? $85 each......well count me out.
