stylie_steve since your so bumed out over the new 12" figures here is a 31" for ya. I happen to know the guy in NZ who is importing these and have already talked him into making a pre-order for SWNZ club members.
If he does not get on and do it I will give him another "do it" phone call.
Anyone else have any interest in this GAINT 31" figure? :victory:

So is the price probably, and then you've got to store or display them somewhere. :(

It reminds me of the Superman and Dark Knight variants that came out a few years back

There was a listing on Trademe that had them at $69.00

I reckon that's a bargain for it's size and detail (here's a size comparison next to a MR ROTS helmet)

Sounds like they're about $45 in the US and $50 in Aussie, so I'd hope they were no more than $65-$70 here

Full price that is, then $50ish on special

Indeed it was, seller has since placed another order but after the NZD went down against the US - so expect a price increase to reflect this :cry:

At least we can be thankful Hasbro isn't giving us stretched "turtle neck" figures like that ... yet. :roll:

Hmm nah don't think this type of thing interests me. I will stick with Sideshow/Hot Toys 12".

Neat for the kiddies but I have no place for something like this.
