No thank you. The first Gamorrean looks bad enough. And a broken archway?

I'd probably get it if it were going to be half the price I am sure they will be asking...at over $100 plus..no thanks.. At $50...im in.

Although I do wish the archway had been more complete, I am not hating on it like a lot of others seem to be. I am down for two of each. And I am curious about whether a good customizer can add to that archway.

why not just have them build a whole seperate one out of a less expensive material & save the cost of what the dio would be.....

What?.....
Edit - Oh, I had to read it a couple of times but I think I see what you meant...my brain is in slow mode this morning. I just like the idea od adding to this one. I may try to do it myself. I am going to look for a material I can mold into the existing "break" of the archway that will dry so that it can then me sculpted to match.

Can I have it the other way? Let Joe fans take the broken arch.
Don't make me hurt you!
The wall is kind of eh but great for the whole Jabba set up. The Guard looks great (Hasbro being close=
Have you seen the new Hasbro Gammy? I was all for busting Carl's balls about his comment on Hasbro's clones, but there's some merit here as far as the Gammy's concerned.

So Gartogg is just a Guard with an opened mouth? All I get from this is that the standard Gammy will fetch even less in the secondary market after it's initial release... (or so I hope)
Yup, I have and I saw it at Comic-Con. Its cool for a 3 3/4 piece. Thats about it though.

Fact is, if Hasbro can get it that close with that much articulation at 1:18th scale, it's a ____ing shame Sideshow couldn't do better at 1:6.

That Hasbro GG looked so good I almost bought it the other day and it's been a good 2 years since I kicked that habit.

Well, people are willing to deal with joints and all on figures of that size. People would _____ moan and groan that they can see joints. Its not something that I personally find that big of an issue but some it kills things. I personally think its a mistake that they're not giving it articulation but thats just me.

I haven't seen ____ here. If you find them again, please pick me up 2 and I'll PP you $$$ for them and shipping. 
No, it's not just you. I think that's the reason a lot are passing.

Thanks bud! Wife picked me up Jabba for X-mas and I can't imagine not having them. Klatu's everywhere so that's a non-issue. I just gotta hunt down Slave Leia on da bay though.

I'm sure. Its not why I am personally but I totally how it is hurting the sale for some folks. I thought it was an odd choice when they announced the first Guard at Comic-Con 09.

perhaps the guards should have been announced as a duo and potential customers would choose "either - or - both". in this economy, SST needed something for us to get excited about before the holidays, not relieved that we could pass it by.
