all my effort and cash just to see gg knock it out again.

there are 7500 of em out there...no reason why you can't get him.

That'll truly suck if the 1st Boba bust will decrease in value once (IF!) the new one is released. And out of the 7500 that are produced, about a EENY percent of 'em will not be sold due to the fact that it's a beautiful, if not definitive, Boba bust. For the amount they're going for, I'd just as well get the statue (which is beaitiful all its own) and the animated maquette. I've seen the bust fetch on ebay for as much as $250! I mean, JEEZ! So I feel they ought to release another Boba bust. After all, I AM getting the new much-better-looking Jango Fett bust........

What does it matter? Ppl can't get the first one and they know there's still many ppl out there that want a Boba bust, regardless if YOU have the first bust and statue. It's a surefire way to make more money.

I have the first bust and 2 of the FS statues (ordered two by accident ) and they are a couple of my favorite pieces.

i have the statue as well...but...its not as good as the bust.if they put the bust on the lower half of the statue it would be great but that would be copying an earlier sculpt.

7500 boba busts isn't enough for the market i still think they'll leave well enough alone..just a hunch

I can think of a couple of poses: aiming his blaster and/or firing his blowtorch located on his right hand while holding his blaster in his right hand in an action pose. Hell, Boba can be picking his nose from inside his helmet and it'll sell. Opinions?

I started late, with Yoda (A New Hope) being my first bust, followed by Vader (Revenge of the Sith), Han Solo, and Chewbacca. Boba Fett is my missing link.

Nobody said that collecting is a cheap hobby, if you want limited pieces you have to pay for it, if you started late and you still want those pieces, then you have to get your wallet. Otherwise don't collect limited pieces.

I myself had to pay a lot of dollars for some bustes.

So if you want to complete your collection with a Boba Fett buste, don't put it with Gentle Giant and ask them to make a new model, buy a excisting one from eBay and stop janking about it!

I'd buy one of Boba picking his nose....that would be funny. Honestly, I think they could do a lot with boba as a bust. I wouldn't mind a bust of him as a child holding Jango's severed head, but Im screwed up like that. If they do make another....there is no doubt I will buy it....as soon as its out. And everyone else will too just because of the success of the first. I doubt it would effect anything with the first one too except maybe boost the ability of it. Frankly I would like to see another Boba bust, as long as its not lazily made.
