I know these are pretty old but does anyone know a store that still has them? I tried ebay and found none!

 

[galactiboy]

I haven't seen these for sale in a long time... and you're right about eBay they almost never pop up.

Have you tried putting a want ad in the commerce section? There's probably at least 1 freak that would want to sell them.

 

[denger4000]

I think I'll shop around first but I'll look into that if I can't find them anywhere else.

 

[metaphorge]

I passed on these guys when I found out Sideshow was not going to be doing the 24" Skeksis. I'm still somewhat bitter at being teased so mercilessly.

 

[denger4000]

I passed on them because when they came out I haven't seen the movie in years, but recently I saw it again and now I need them of course.

a few years ago we bought the two gelfling dolls, but my dumbass girlfriend gave them to her neice (to destroy?)

 

[denger4000]

Hmm, are you just calling them dolls because thats what you call everything? Or were they actually dolls, like stuffed toys with plastic hands and heads? If thats the case I don't want them.

Are you talking about these ???

I used to have extras but once I was able to get $75-$100 a piece for them I sold them all on ebay . . .

They are figures not dolls . .

 

[denger4000]

thanks for the info, I think I sniffed out a good deal, I'll keep updating....

Ha, I just noticed Fizgig in that pic. Too cool.

I'm trying to find them too, and being in Spain makes it more and more difficult. I remember seeing them on the previews catalog and I was tempted to buy them, but I finally didn't because I coudln't afford them. Now it's nearly impossible to find them, I saw them like three times on eBay 1,5 years ago, but now, they're mia.

I wish they would've done the skeksils, that'd be awesome. Oh and btw, the gelflings don't look spectacular at all... but I'll try and get them anyway, because I am a big fan of the movie.

Btw, it's getting the double dvd treatment, an anniversary edition, as well as labyrinth.

 

[denger4000]

I have since won these on ebay but have not received them yet, for anyone who has them can you tell me what kind of bodies do they have? Is it just the normal body sideshow uses?

 

[MadCow]

To be honest, I don't know. Mine have never been out of the box. I know, I know they should be freed but i'm saving all my DC stuff for a full Detolf display...

For the DC collectors, do you collect any of the other stuff out there? I am currently up to date with all the Plan B busts (waiting on delivery of Garthim) and just picked up the MINDstyle vinyl statues which are AMAZING!

 

[olvidadero]

I'm also waiting for the Garthim to ship. I asked Plan B and they said they'll have it ready to ship in three weeks. They also told me that they're having production issues with the Skektek bust and they 'hope' they can have it ready before the license expires for them at the end of the present year.

The first two busts are IMPOSSIBLE to get at a reasonable price. It's driving me crazy.

I also have the three Labyrinth Plan B busts and I'm sad because they were going to do an alternative Jareth and two riding goblins and they cancelled them. I don't think we'll see any other bust or whatnot after the Skektek bust.

Can you show a link with pictures of those Mindstyle statues?? I didn0t know they existed!!!

Nevermind! I saw them. They look SPECTACULAR. I'm having these!

The Gelflings are on regular SST bodies; my wife has a set, though if she finds out what they can go for, that may change...PS

They had a limited amount of the Garthim at SDCC, someone I know picked one up. It's amazing looking, i'm thinking of getting 2 to flank my Garthim Master. I really love these pieces and hope the line doesn't die...

The Chamberlain and UrYod were a PAIN to find. I stupidly got into this line late, right after Aughra came out. Luckily, I found a dealer on Ebay and worked a deal offline for about $100 each for the 2. I've only seen one other set up for sale since then and they went for more than that. I often wonder the production amounts on these. I heard somewhere around 300-500 pieces each but I NEVER see the older pieces for sale. I attend a good 5-6 cons/shows a year and no one ever has them...

I heard the Plan B Dark Crystal Busts have a run of 500 each. I picked up UrSkek and the Garthim at Comic Con and love them! I did find one dealer that was selling some previous busts at the show (the two original were going for $200 a piece and a few newer ones for $80 a piece) but I passed. I did pick up the Mindstyle vinyl statues at Comic-con though and love them (even if I still think they are a bit overpriced).
