That looks great. I am not really familiar with the EU, so I have no idea who this character is but it looks good.

I want it. Does Gentle Giant do orders for non-attendees?

That's seriously really cool. With the new KOTOR stuff thats starting to come out it makes me wonder if possibly Sideshow could join in. (please sideshow, do Darth Nihilus...:emperor )

Gentle Giant's Premium Guild membership gives you several bonuses, including

Access to GG convention/event exclusive items (availability varies) after the event, if you are unable to attend.

I'm not an EU fan, but this seems to be a pretty successful piece in just about every way.

I will not be at C4, so the Collector's Club Guild will be my only chance at this one. But it will not break my heart if I miss it.

I'll be getting this mother for sure. Really cool looking and this is where paying the $50 bucks is gonna be so worth it.

Malak kicked ass in KOTOR! much better villain than Nihilus

Looks awesome but I also will not be in despair if I cannot get it. I do think GG is getting better and better. I just got the Han and Greedo bookends from Razors edge and they are truly nice.

The KOTOR stuff is just really well designed, and you've got like 20 hours to get to know the characters so you really can admire them quite well. Although they really underdeveloped Nihilus, he looks awesome. Malak is really awesome too. Great costume design and a good backstory. And then Revan has an even better story ;)

If I was a SW bust Collector, I'd be very happy.

I'm glad I don't collect these. I can barely keep up with the SW lines I collect now.:lol

Looks fantastic and moved to #1 on my GG wants list for 2007 immediately. :D I hope the $50 I paid for Premium Guild membership hooks me up with one of these bad boys, but based on GG's past handling of exclusives, I won't hold my breath. :monkey3

Interesting. Malak looks cool but I would think it'd be something from ANH.....or at least the OT.....Don't plan on having it because the fact its a GG Bust and its a CIV Exclusive means it'll be outrageous on the secondary market and I just don't buy GG's $50 Club.....Hopefully one day we get a SSC Figure of this guy as well...

I gotta give credit to GG for mixing it up, but I'm just not a fan of mini busts.

OMFG


Who's d!ck do I have to suck to get one of these?

I'm really hoping someone can help me out with this one. I'm mentioned several times that Malak is second on my list to most wanted characters in 12" format. I never thought GG would be cool enough to do a bust though.

I'm only collecting the EU busts and this is a must have for me.

To say the least. And seriously, if anyone can help me out with this, I'd be most appreciative.

Not only am I stoked to see one of my favorite characters in the SW universe, but this means we'll most likely get more EU characters in the future which is the best news.

I REALLY want one of these too. Not sure how I will get one, but I WANT one.

As someone else already said.....KOTOR OWNS!!!!!!!

Looks awesome! Always loved that character in KOTOR..... Too bad I will be missing this year due to SDCC. Had to choose and it could only be one. SSC's presence at SDCC and the eventual party swayed me towards San Diego.

Not a member of the GG club... so no dibs for me... I might hunt for it later though... I really love that character and I only collect SITH! :maul

Good to know, I'll surely buy it... many people like the character... we might hope for a bust or 12" figure in the future then... I still wish to see a Premium Format Figure but It will be hard to see him in this format I think, even If would be my 1st Choice If Sideshow will ever produce an Expanded Universe Premium Format Figure in the future.

Not really if they make 500 at $60 thats only $30000. It will be big money for scalpers.

I just realized that this announcement is part of the GG and Microsoft hook-up. I guess that means we won't be getting an KOTOR 12" figures anytime soon. :monkey2

So it's both a happy and a sad day.

Yes, but then we can expect a Darth Revan bust and this is good new to me... and anyways Sideshow has the rights for the SW Expanded Universe too so we might get some of those KOTOR 12" too.
