It is a beautifully detailed bust. I'm also glad that I didn't have to pay anywhere near what they are going for on ebay now.

I always like to tell the story of how I got my Fett and my Vader GG busts. I was away on business in a city a couple of hundred miles from home. This was in April/04. I was out for a walk and dropped into a comic shop close to the hotel where I was staying. They had some statues and busts on display in a glass cabinet and I spotted the Vader bust. I had never seen a GG bust before and thought it was pretty cool. I asked how much? He said $80 (CAN).
I thought, that's a lot, and passed on it. The thought of it kept nagging at me. So, a couple of weeks later, I was back in that city again and I said "what the heck" and went back to the shop and bought it.
I was so impressed with the Vader bust that when I got back home, I checked the local comic shops and that is where I found Boba. He was also sitting at the back of a glass cabinet and the owner was happy to sell him to me for $45 (CAN). Now keep in mind that this was before I (or the shop owners) were aware of the true value of these. I bought them because I liked them so much.
True stories, I swear!
