Hey! Something here y'all might be interested in - http://blog.gentlegiantltd.com/?p=911
We're giving away a Star Wars Jumbo Vintage Cantina Playset!

Darth Spice · « **Reply #31 on:** August 10, 2012, 09:50:48 AM »

I'll get that on the front page in the next round of updates Greg, and do we not have something in our giveaway stockpile that might help one of these lucky Troopers populate said Cantina?

I can't remember. Do you?

By the way - last chance to get in on our drawing for the Jumbo Vintage Cantina Playset! http://blog.gentlegiantltd.com/?p=911

Also, I won't be in the office for the rest of the week, so I won't be posting. However, I will probably start making the forum rounds again while I'm at CVI starting next Wednesday.

Missed you at the show, dude! You didn't swing by?

Darth Spice · « **Reply #36 on:** August 28, 2012, 12:29:36 PM »

What day did we see each other? Sunday? WE were both hurtin' pretty good I think when we saw each other, and I guess briefly at the blur I'm calling the 501st bash!

rogue01 · « **Reply #37 on:** August 28, 2012, 12:30:19 PM »

Yeah, the weekend was a blur. I must have missed the introduction and not realized it was you. Sorry. There were a LOT of people I met for the first time at this show.

Darth Spice · « **Reply #38 on:** August 28, 2012, 12:32:11 PM »

How about next time we BOTH make it to that great party Gentle Giant throws!

rogue01 · « **Reply #39 on:** August 28, 2012, 12:35:02 PM »

Yeah, I didn't stay at the Bash for long. It was cool, but not my scene. When you're married, you don't drink, you don't dance and it's too loud to have a conversation, you can't help but think that there may be better uses of your time.

As for the Dark Side Grotto party, I tried taking a disco nap before heading over there and I wound up sleeping until 4am. Oops.

Ah! Now, I remember you. Sorry, yeah, this was a hazy weekend. Mostly from lack of sleep.

And yeah... that's pretty broke off right there. ;-)

IT didn't get any better, this was found on Curto's Twitter page! NO doubt not one of my finer moves!

I was looking at Rebelscum and they have posted the PMG "gift" of the Gamorean guard on the 1985 POTF card with a 3" diameter coin.

Yep.

That has to be the coolest upgrade in the history of modern collectibles! It's great to see a company that is REALLY getting collectors these days! Great job Greg & crew!!

Hey Greg I think the cat is out of the bag with the missile firing Boba Fett can you tell if it will be on a card or packaged some other way?

Of course the cat is out of the bag. I let it out. ;-)

As for carded vs. boxed vs.

, that's all still to be determined.

I saw the video on Yoda's news.com about it.I am really chomping at the bit for the Rocket firing Fett.

We even had puke bags for that at the condo! WE thought of every emergency at Camp Dickey Beers. I too saw the video on Yodasnews... We'll get that and the gammo on the front page in our next round of updates. THANK GOD I had today off! $:-\$

Dark Clone · « **Reply #54 on:** September 01, 2012, 11:55:32 AM »

Being an old-school fan. LOVE the 12' vintage line.
I hope to see more being made without no new changes to the original mold.
They are perfect the way they are being made.

We haven't decided the release plan for RFBF (that's rocket-firing boba fett) yet.

Darth Spice · « **Reply #56 on:** September 06, 2012, 10:47:48 AM »

It seems like you might go the exact same cardback as the Blue Snaggs? The first Fett came in a white mailer box too, maybe you guys will redo that as well? I have to be honest I really didn't care for the bigger vintage figures, now I wished I'd gotten on board from the get-go. $:-\$
