    and a swappable head Solo as well.

    These are cool to look at, but @ that price and the real estate you have to turn over to them, I will also be enjoying most of them in other peoples collections.

      Chewy looks off. Shouldn't he have a full set of upper and lower teeth and not just fangs?
      You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

            One where there are more than a thousand or so fans willing to shell out for whatever Star Wars product gets released. Particularly nostalgia driven stuff like this!

                    WOW.. That is so cool..! I didn't know they were doing these. That 12" Han Solo looks pretty cool. I never liked the 2nd larger head.

                      the small head Han is definitely going to look better when blown up 400%. Even tho GG has tweeked the scale here and there in order to make things work with the bigger figures, that bubble headed fellow is going to look hydrocephalic.

                          Now if only they'd blow up an AT-AT to 12 inch scale.

                            ???

                            Wasn't the smaller head a "fix" for the larger one?

                              Nope, small head was first but deemed too small for the body, people speculate. Then they switched it and the head was too BIG. Why? To this day no one has a solid answer with proof. Just speculation.
                              Small head was always the best!!
