The order in which characters are made is a head scratcher across all licenses. Not much you can do about it except keep making it known which characters you want to see next. But I do think that if this bust is from Rogue One then Krennic is most likely in the works, maybe. I think he'd look better as a full statue to be honest. Love that imperial pimp suit.

I don’t think GG made this decision - I’m sure it was forced on them by Disney. It has to be something stupid like that, otherwise making this before Krennic is inexcusable.

Nah, GG/DST pays for the license and they decide what to produce as it’s their investment. Disney only approves/disapproves what is brought to the table.
Even if Disney did engage in a practice like that what possible reasoning could they have in pushing an elderly man in gray suit on consumers? Agreed that it’s stupid however.

Me too. At this moment GG should make one six SS statues instead of busts. Or one quarter statues, competing with XM. Or one half busts. Oh wait...

I just ordered a Tarkin mini bust on bbts but it was very different. It was Tarkin on thorne mini bust. It is an amazing looking piece as well.
Last munite design change by GG ? or what i ordered was a new mini bust ?

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

The chair version is from 2004, believe it or not. I can't believe they still have that one in stock! It's honestly the better likeness of the two though. The new one had questionable paint apps.
EDIT - I just looked to see what else they might have, and it looks like they either picked up someone's collection, or bought out someone's old stock. There's a number of busts from around that era available now, and a couple of 1/6 pieces too. They have reasonable secondary market prices as well.

You are right, buddy. GG Busts and Statues from past on sale at bbts. They must be reissues. I ordered 7 more Star Wars busts, after Tarkin. (:
