I thought of you when I saw this T. Figured you'd be pleased you didn't pony up for that ESB MB back when you got into these busts.

I didn't realize the ESB version was 7500 pieces.

I'm on the fence with GG busts these days. Now that they are finally producing more of the pieces that folks have been requesting for years (Fett, Mace with lightsabre, etc.) it might be too late due in part to SS's 1/6 figures at least in my case. I'm seriously considering selling the entire GG SW collection.

For me the MBs are the one SW line I will not stop collecting. I get the most bang for my buck here, their moderate size allows me to collect/dispay a large number of them easier and the sheer variety is simply unparalleled.

Yeah, I was going to but I figured if I was going to shell out for a bust it was going to be this one, plus I needed him for my ESB bounty hunter setup. And now I'm paying more for this new one than I did for the old one.

The one I did pass on though was ESB Vader, got the ROTS one instead.

Yeah, I passed on the ESB Vader too. Even though I've been collecting these MBs since '05 I've never seen a price on that version which I felt was worth it. The ROTS version fills my needs as well.

Sounds like you got a good deal on the ESB Boba though. As cool as this ROTJ MB is I still like that one better, but I'm partial to the ESB version of the character. The colors just feel more militaristic and cold to me. Haven't decided if I'll pick this one up yet. Thinking I'll most likely pass.
