I'm also on the fence about this one, but to me it looks great. Just bought the SS Vader and am now wondering if that's not enough. Terrific piece that SS one.

BTW, Same goes for the silly animated pieces.

as much as i love my SW pieces, these have been a huge headache. the majority have had some type of malfunction w/the light or paints. i love the GG work but i have taken a big loss carrying these pieces. if you're international, make sure they are in good condition and work properly.
