Mara Jade bust

[Batty]

I think the retail for Leia will probably be around the $150 mark like the other statues.

Just from the pics at SDCC and everyone's reaction to it, I think it's going to be a hot seller. I just wonder if GG will continue their continuing trend of large ES.

They almost always sell out anyway so why wouldn't they? Why should they care about secondary market prices and values? I expect this to be around the 5K-7K ES range. If I can find one for around $100, I'll consider it. I really expect SS to do a Slave Leia PF though because I don't think it's currently possible in 12" form.

Ok well I can probably handle that. If I could get it preordered somewhere for 100 I would be really happy. I just hope Im able to get this one easily. Is it better to order these through GG or a retailer. GG doesnt ever short a retailer or anything like that do they.

It would have to retail for about $120 and I don't think any statue has retailed below $150 so don't count on it. You can try your luck with some eBayers that do pre-ordering ( I haven't gotten burned YET) and get a good deal.

Yeah, I think you're right about what SS will do... At least I hope that's what they'll do.

Even those who usually claim that the 12" figures look superior to the PFs would have to admit that a fully sculpted Slave Leia PF would look better than a 12" version with joints.

 

[jason2885]

Yes it probably would. I just dont know how they are going to make it look any better than the GG one but Im sure theyll find a way.

One way would be to make a statue that looks more like Carrie Fisher as she appeared in Return of the Jedi.

You mean to tell me she really was wearing something under that dress and she wasnt that big on top.

 

[Khev]

Affirmative.

 

[jason2885]

GG just did the Fanboys imagination version I guess. It defineitely captured slave Leia in her best possible pose.

Maybe Lucas always intended for Leia to have a wonder bra on and he will be changing it for the upcoming release

 

[user 1190]

Anyone seen anything more on this? Did GG release them yet?

Which one--Leia or the Mara bust? They just posted this info on the summer con exclusive busts:

Exclusives Held Back For Collector Club Members

Now that Gen Con is over, we've been getting a lot of questions on when we will be offering the quantity of exclusives we held back for our Collector's Club members.

We are currently taking inventory on all items that returned from the shows to have a final count. As we previously mentioned we have held a quantity back of each of the show exclusives; Lucius Malfoy as Death Eater mini bust, Deluxe Shocktrooper mini bust with Shocktrooper Bust-Up and Mara Jade mini bust.

We hope to have everything set and ready to go by the last week of August or the first week of September. An email with more information and purchase guidelines will be sent out as time approaches.

We are also currently contacting all those who have been extended the consolation offer from the Blackhole Stormtrooper mini bust issue and are working on getting those items sent out.

I didnt get any email that why I asked. I have added 3 different "spam addresses" beause I never got anything at all from them so I wondered if it really got added. Tom can you do me a favor when you get the email can you send me an IM with the link incase i continue not to get emails.

I will do my best to forward it to you, but just so you know--these updates are not coming from e-mails, but instead they are posting information to the blog on their official website.

 

[The Josh]

As long as I can get one I'll be happy.

 

[oxbeard]

Well I have to admit I was skeptical about this bust from the official pics. Was afraid it looked a little too cartoonish. Boy was I wrong. I received mine today and absolutely love it. It's a very great bust and will definitely look good displayed with Jedi Luke when he releases.

Guess I have offically been drawn back into the GG fold

 

[jason2885]

I cant wait for GG to put these up online.

 

[Darth Loki]

I can. If it's announced, it will be an absolute nightmare! If it's done through an email link like they did the SDCC pre-orders, it will be an absolute nightmare! I'll be trying to get one of everything for fellow members.
