Great looking bust, but I don't know why they would release this before the rest of the main crew as well as Krennic, Galen or Saw.

Think this is a Keith Kopinski piece.

I for one am glad we're seeing it mixed up. The core characters will eventually get made, this character is a welcome surprise and looks simply amazing! Probably the nicest I've seen in years. This is exactly why I collect this product. Nowhere else in the statue/bust market can you add obscure, well designed characters from the SW Universe such as this.

Don't get me wrong, I think they knocked it outta the park and I give them kudos for releasing this, but I am just surprised that we are getting this guy so early in the R1 lineup.

With new SW films coming out yearly I don't know how they are ever going to get through the top character lineups for each film. That's the collector in me talking.
I should just not worry about it and enjoy the releases for what they are.

This piece is really well done and grows on me the more I look at it. Before seeing the film I would have said I definitely needed a Bistan piece in my collection. After seeing it I didn't think so. But after seeing this piece for over a day, I'm thinking I'll definitely be picking it up.

GG has really been stepping up their game lately, more and more with each release. Bodes well for SW collectors.

Unfortunately with GG, as much as I love their work, they don't seem to showcase their artists as much as they should. So unless you have some inside knowledge you generally don't know who is responsible for each individual piece.
