I'm still quite puzzled as to why there was such a huge difference... Surely, someone somewhere noticed. I've never seen such a massive difference between prototype and final product before... Poor Obi Wan... lol

Sorry i mean't the final released product.

You know what Gentle Giant are like with the proto pics and what the final product is like.

I've seen a pic on ebay, but just can't get a good enough look at Dooku.

Some inhand pics of statue from a seller on ebay.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/STAR-WARS-Gent...3286.m20.l1116

Ventress looks good, but can't see enough of Dooku's face to decide.

Great shots, thanks. But it still leaves me wondering whether or not the $210 price tag is worth it. The close up looks good, but his profile... just seems off.

Still might be worth it for the work on Ventress alone.

Thanks again for the pics.
