Star Wars Busts, Bust-Ups, Statues and Maquettes

[P-Ray]

I have all the busts except for Vader and Padme.(I missed Vader by less than a day and the Padme bust does nothing for me)

I just got the biker scout and Greedo. The detail in these are incredible.

Does anyone else get into these?

[Miasmo]

A lot of the busts look lame to me. I would like just one though. Don't know which. Maybe Greedo.

Greedo looks great if you haven't seen it.

Both Boba and Jango look great and so do the Troopers(Clone and Boker scout).

Gran Moff Tarkin looks real good too.

[wisewan]

any news on any rumored busts? "darthsidious, or should I say emperor" looks amazing.. He is next on the list. I get them at a local comicbook shop here in Houston. The only problem is that everyone seems to get there's online first.. Then again it's not a problem as long as I get them as well!!

I have a bunch of these myself. They are pretty cool!

[Jedi Master 2k5]

I've been collecting busts for a couple of years

[Horse_Head]

I have a few of the Comic-Con exclusive Bust-Ups...

The Holo Sith Lords (Vader & Maul)...
The Three Stormy Troop set...
The Clear Four pack (Leia, Han, Luke and C3PO)
And the Silver Jango...

Pretty cool.

[brookie]

oooohhhhhhhhhhhhh! mesa want.^

i just picked up the clonetrooper and anakin. they look better than the first wave of bust ups.

[Reel 2/Dialogue 2]

Sadly, busts are one of the few types of collectibles I have to stay away from. They're relatively expensive and not too practical (though gorgeous, to say the least!). I would've gotten the silver Jango bust from Mastercard if they accepted my application... ALL THREE TIMES I APPLIED. Though I would probably break my rule to get a Slave Leia one. Yes, I'm shameless.

I do get the BustUps, but can't seem to find the rarer ones (though my Villians collection is almost complete) and no sign of Sith ones anywhere (and the newer wave is coming soon... DAGNABBIT). Just ordered both versions of Clonetrooper packs from Star Wars Shop.

[Miasmo]

I still don't have any busts... and I still would like the Greedo mini bust. It's on my christmas list. :yodaxmas:

[jedijaybird]

If anyone is looking for the Yoda ESB Mini-Bust, Brians Toys has them on Holiday Special for $24.99. ˆ received mine on Satudary and its awesome.

As one of my present this year I got the Star Wars Clone Wars General Grievous Maquette made by the good people over at Gentle Giant. Each one of this Statues are number I got number 1358 out of 3,500 in the world.

He is a worthy opponent for any Jedi Knight. Grievous hunted Jedi for sport and proudly displayed his victims' lightsabers around his belt as trophies of his conquests.

Thank you to my best friend for this GREAT present that is now next to all my Star Wars trade paperbacks.
To view more photos just go to this this link (http://52878.org/Collection/SW/GrievousMaquette/index.html) where I have posted some photos on my website of the General Grievous Maquette

[Horse_Head]

^ That is freakin' sweet!!
There is soooo much cool stuff and only so much room to display/store it style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif

BTW... Topics merged...

[empire21]

That looks great, I need more money style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif

[brookie]

i love the grevious!!! the CN statues are really great.

ill post mine soon.

[JediSimon]

My favorite present I got this past year for the holidays is what my father got me. A Star Wars Biker Scout and Speeder Bike Statue. It is also from Gentle Giant and it has a limited edition run of 5000.The one I have is number 2540. One think I love about this statue is the great pose on it there is a great eye-catching optical illusion, as first glances really make it seem like that speeder bike is floating.

I have been a fan of the Scout Troopers. Since the first time I saw Episode IV Return of the Jedi back in 1983. When I was only five years old.

[empire21]

^Now that is cool.

[brookie]

very cool. i heart busts.

here are two of mine(CW anakin and obiwan) plus some koto models.

im thinking about getting all of the CW ones- but i think that i should just concentrate on the Koto's.

[JediSimon]

There are nice I would love to get Obi-Wan Clone Wars but there so hard to found now.

[wise-bi-wan]

New mini busts coming out this year!

Darth Maul
Qui-Gon
Clone troopers (E3)
Mara Jade
Chewy

I'm not in to the EU so four out of five ain't bad.

[JaggedFel1110]

I managed to pick up the entire Bust-Ups series 4 this weekend. The guy even let me keep the display stand!

[Horse_Head]

I think this falls into the statue catagory....

I really dig the Kotobukiya stuff, but they're to damn big to display in my office. I wish they had something as good but smaller.

[empire21]

That Leia and R2 one is great

[Woppo]

WOW, I knew she was short...but not that short ;)

What Vader is that?

[Theropod]

It's the Sideshow Premium Format 1/4 scale Darth Vader statue.
Sideshow's PF Vader webpage (http://www.sideshowtoy.com/cgi-bin/category.cgi?category=search&item=7117&type=store)
The entire Sideshow PF line is amazing.
The new 12 inch action figures are too bad either.

Oh, and it's not that she's short, it's that the Vader statue is nearly two feet tall.
-theropod

[Woppo]

Yes Know the SS 1/4 range statues, I had them all on pre order but had to cancel them....now I have seen some of them I wish I kept them on order and canceled other things

[Theropod]

You can still get them for less than retail on eBay, unless you are looking for the exclusive versions, but for most of them the exclusive items don't really add much to the pieces.
The only two I'm paying full price for is the Grievous exclusive and the Leia exclusive. Unfortunately, retailers can't order the exclusives so everybody has to pay full price on those.

What size are the gentle giants and who makes them?

[Horse_Head]

Gentle Giant makes the Gentle Giant stuff... http://www.gentlegiantltd.com/ :nahnah:

[Darth Holmes]

Thanks.

[Darth Holmes]

I have a question - does anyone here have either the Kotobukiya 501st clone or Shock Trooper that can tell me how tall it is? I'm thinking about getting one and size is a concern. I've seen their size listed as anywhere from 9.5 " to 13 " tall on the internet. The official site says its 12 ", but most toy sites list them as 10" to 11". If someone here could help me that would be great.

[Darth Holmes]

Anyone?

[P-Ray]

I finally got the Darth Vader ROTS Bust! It looks great!

Greivous and Sidious Busts should be coming out soon, eh?
