Gentle Giant TFA Storm Trooper mini bust first look

Here is the first Force Wakens mini bust from Gentle Giant. Hopefully the price point won't be over $100 since their prices seem to be on the rise.

I didn't go either :/ but only other new thing was a classic (armless) Stormtrooper bust. I'll track down some photos.

This is up for PO. $120 and $108 for PGM members. Looks like GG has increased their prices to ridiculous amounts.

$120? Yikes. I remember when their busts used to be $50. Looks great though.

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

Yeah, I agree. There's hardly any detail at all to justify a $120 listing price. Star Wars or not, it's just a dude in black & white armor. It's overpriced by at least $50. I've seen their 1/4 scale Michonne selling for under $300, and that's a dozen times more detailed than this little bust at $120. Really lame, GG.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

and......an easy decision to not collect busts from the new movie! boom!

Was just talking about this the other day with a co-worker. These were $40 from etailers when we first started collecting. I'm down to just getting new OT GG products and would have definitely thrown in the towel at current prices if the releases weren't so few and far apart.
