is it the lighting or is yours a darker green? I like the color on yours

Congrats. This is a great piece. I'm a proud owner of one myself.

I still can't believe GG sold this for $650. I remember people saying that was expensive but seriously, for a 1:1 Yoda with light-up saber and sound effects? Thats a bargain. To be honest I think its worth twice that.

I'll never forget picking this box up from FedEx. It was HUGE and a Styrofoam unpacking nightmare. The only box I've ever received that was bigger was for my GG 1:1 Balrog Bust.

Anyway here is a pick of mine I took a while back.

Nice Hellboy.

Speaking of that I like your Hellboy premium format statue (very underrated piece). Mines still in the box next to my yoda (see pic).

I have gotta find some room to display some stuff.

Thanks FROBAY.

I agree the HB I PF is very underrated. I know most seem to prefer the HB II PF but aside from the material used for the coat on that piece I still prefer the original myself.

BTW your Yoda is gonna suffocate under that plastic. lol

congrats on getting him amaze i'd love this piece myself, it's one I always kick myself about not getting when it was released. May I ask where you got it from and for how much?

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

I'm curious what the average price of these is too, not just yours.
