[Darth Torment]

Ok, so which of us has this big'un in their collection?

Very curious to hear what owners of this piece think, and please do post pics from various angles!

Since I started posting here, I can't remember anyone mentioning they had this one!


Thanks!

You just gotta love this pic, seen it live twice a set like this and it is FREAKIN AWESOME!!!!! I only collect Dark Side pieces but if i had to buy some outside of that it would be THIS display!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ooh and BTW Jabba is HUGE and the motherf....... is HEAVY!

[Josh2K4]

2 gamo's are a must!

Ill definatly buy another one when I can get one for cheap... and maybe another 3PO because I have mine displayed with R2....

[El Diablo]

Those are GREAT pics!!

The sculpt on this, as with every attakus piece, is second to none very clean and detailed. He has a decent weight to him though he's not solid cast so not ridiculously heavy, just right i'd say.
He's definitley a big boy though, for scale reference that shelf he's sitting on on the pic is almost 2 metres wide :)

[John828]

I have it and as El Diablo says the sculpt is second to none. It is huge and heavy, but as he points out well it's not solid cast so it's not heavy enough that it woudl take three people to move it. Definitely get it!!!

It has become one of my favorite pieces. I have the entire diorama (almost)...no Leia slave. I don't like it. Always wanted to hold out for Leia as Boushh. If you get it you have to at least get Salacious Crumb and the Hoohkah pipe. Although I would recommend all of the diorama - if you have space for it.

[Darth Torment]

The Attakus Leia is a mess. The likeness on that one is as bang-on as what you see in a blowup sex doll.

I like this Jabba alot, but it is going for way too much for me to justify... I will definaltey have to wait for the price to drop before I consider this one seriously. I agree about the Hookah..need that with this statue!

[icruise]

I got this recently on ebay for a little over $400 plus shipping. I think I got lucky with the bidding and I also had a 10% off coupon from ebay, so that's why it was so low. The last one I saw sell on ebay went over $600. Anyway, it's really a nice piece. Huge. I was happy to be able to add him to my Jabba collection (http://mightyjabba.wordpress.com/). Now I definitely want to get Bib Fortuna, a Gamorrean Guard, and Oola. I don't really care for the Leia or Salacious Crumb, although I would like to get the hooka. Pictures don't really convey how large and impressive these are in person.

[ambasah]

congrats on owning the ultimate jabba! It is a truly an under appreciated piece.

[Rodders]

I think that Attakus is an under-appreciated licence, full stop.

icruise, congratulations on that great score. He looks magnificent.
