Pre-ordering Boba Fett shortly! $85 isn't bad, can't wait!

I have never bought anything from GG before but this is too cool to pass up.

Just an FYI -- the Cardboard Cantina set is huge - and is being printed here right in the U.S.A. It's not cheap setting up a print run for a small qty, plus this comes die-cut and in the collectors packaging. =)

 

[Invictus Sol]

*grumble grumble* Small run, collector packaging and made is the US and yeah, I can see why they're charging $90.00. Guess it just goes to show that 90% of the time, there really is a good reason SSC, HT and GG charge what they do. Thanks for the info, Darth Waller.

Plus, they know people will pay a bit of a premium for nostalgia, but I'm betting some of our industrious fellow freaks can make something similar for a lower price.

Anyone get the Watto bust?
I was going to order with 30% off coupon and the damn thing is SOLD OUT

It's just Watto - how bad can you feel?



And yep, had to PO the rocket firing Boba. I was mulling getting the regular ESB one, but the rocket firing and SW packaging was way cooler.

Just Blue Snaggs and Boba so far, still not sold on anything else currently available (maybe red Snaggs and Yoda,) but some cooler/rarer POTF figures (Amana, EV-9D9...) with jumbo coins would definitely get me further into this line.

This is the first time I've been tempted, but Hasbro gave us the actual size figure with working 'rocket' so I am good. Does look good, but these are still about $40 overpriced

Officially got my order in with GG! I might buy two...ugh

Don't think you can - every screen when I was PO'ing kept obnoxiously popping up with "you can only order one."

 

[kl241]

Cancelled my order with GG. I got Boba ten bucks cheaper from Big Bad including shipping.

Oh I mean I'd preorder from BBTS or somewhere else!

I already have the CV Fett so I don't know if I need 3 but I don't plan of opening my CV or my pre-order...

Hmmm... wonder if GG has a cancellation penalty.

 

[Zodach]

There should be no cancelation fee from Gentle Giant on pre-orders. You can just go into your order history when you log-in to their website and cancel the item yourself.

 

[budafett]

Yeah, GG shouldn't have any cancellation fee.

Our Good Friends at Gentle Giant shipped over the prototype to the Vintage 12" Kenner POWER DROID. It's looks incredible and totally rocks. Check it out soon on Travel Channel and keep checking in for updates!
