I thought i'd message Gentle Giant, asking about Junior (Fireball) and the Honey Trap line. They replied:

I do apologize, I don’t have any “NEW” information about this item (Junior/Fireball) just yet.

I’ll ask our team if we can share any news about the Honey Trap Statues.

Thanks for doing that. Still looking forward to adding Fireball.

I dont get how a company has zero clue about the production of their pieces.

During the pre-order window it gave a February 2019 release date.
I noticed that BBTS says July 2019.
I am going to assume that isnt going to happen.
If we dont see her by September, I am going to cancel.
I have fought for it long enough.

I does seem odd. I have entertained the idea that Junior (Fireball) won't be made until enough pre_orders have been placed. At the same time, i like to believe Junior (Fireball) is being made and nearing completion.

They stopped pre-orders on their site a couple months after she went up for order. If they were waiting for more orders, why would they remove the option to actually order her on their site?

Info
SKU:80445
AVAILABILITY:Pre-Order


You are correct. There is no add to cart option.
Has Junior (Fireball) really sold out? or is it a website issue?

Derby, Lucky and Whisper never sold out.

Yeah, i noticed after a couple months they removed it. I just assumed they were making a small order of her.

Maybe they are unaware that the button is missing?
Given they have no news to report, maybe there is no news to tell, which means something could be up? - like it's not happening?

Maybe all the Star Wars stuff is getting in the way?

At the moment i cannot see the login button (which i think used to be a heart shape) on the GG website?

If you select: SHOP BY BRAND
Select: Honey Trap 1/4 Statue
The results is: There are no products listed under this category.

The Honey Trap line can be found via: SHOP BY BRAND - Gentle Giant

The site has a few issues for sure.

The pre order button for Junior (Fireball) has returned.
I guess that answers that question.

For some reason the site states:
Current Stock: 32

..really?
