If GG just gets to these top 10 in the next 2 years, I'll be good to go.
1. Lando Calrissian (Bespin)
2. Emperor
3. Slave Leia
4. Farmboy Luke
5. Queen Amidala
6. Queen Amidala (alt costume)
7. Young Anakin (podracer helmet)
8. Droid trooper
9. Jar Jar (too major a character to ignore)
10. Snowtrooper

That's good to know Dutch.
The truth is,..I am a collector as well.
I collect the busts as well as the animated maquettes and have all of the Clone Wars animated maquettes.
No doubt their products are not amazing!!!!! That isn't the issue......I think the majority of the issues have to do with their lack of customer service, their lack of taking an interest in what "their" public asks for and lack of responses to them, not to mention the fact that they come off as being moreso on the side of being so concerned with making money with all of their exclusives, variants, etc...that they seem to "miss" a major part of the big picture,...the consumer.
But again, they do make great pieces and there' no denying that.

I Agree witj you ON ALL OF THESE!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm TRULY, TRULY surprised that a slave Leia hasn't been busted yet as she seems to be an all-time favorite. Young Anakin is a must as well as ANY other chaarcter from Epsiode 1, besides Maul and Qui Gonn. And yes,....Although I hate to say it,......Jar Jar is and has been a must.....and NOT in the style of the "Classic-Chess piece looking busts!"

I'd buy a Jar Jar MB even though I'd prefer a Gungan Warrior or maybe even Captain Tarpals.
We probably haven't seen Slave Leia busted due to the FS statue they put out and the fact that we've already got 2 Leias so far.

yeah, you're right.
We only have about 30 troopers.

Nothing wrong with Troopers IMO. After all it is called Star Wars.

No you're right. I love the Troopers but even I'll admit we need more variety. There are plenty of other great characters to choose from, many have been listed in this thread.

I'd buy a Shak-Ti Gentle Giant animated maquette in a second. She was awesome in the Clone Wars animated series, kick-ass jedi and a very emotionally-driven character... I loved how she was portrayed. Plus, she looks sweet.
I still need to get the Jawas (since GG charged me for them, but never shipped -after saying they had-, which is why I hate them now), and Yoda on the Kybuck would be sweet also....hrm... maybe I'll ask for these as Christmas gifts.
Those would be the only Gentle Giant items I'd want, though... already own Leia/R2D2. Yes, I'm still bitter about being charged for something they never shipped... rightfully so. Haha.
My apologies if this thread was solely about mini-busts. Just venting.
