All the SW pieces look nice, but the upcoming Chewbacca doesn't look too good, and the Amine inspired Luke Stormtrooper looks like a pass. Haven't gotten the stormtroopers yet. Maybe one day.

ok, i created some Statue Forum discount codes for preorders. You can only use it for preorders though. Once it is arriving, it'll be too late and regular website price will take effect. Note that the prices for all items besides Hard Hero and Bowen are under retail so that's taken into account for final price. Also, Bowen pieces have free shipping on preorders so that's calculated as well. Final price should be pretty good across the board. Since different manufacturers give different discounts and webstore prices vary, I had to create a code per company. Pass them along for those who need it. You need to type the following in the discount coupon section of the shopping cart.

For:
Gentle Giant => sfgg
Bowen statues => sfbds
Bowen busts => sfbdb
HH marvel => sfhh
DH Star Wars Koto's => sfdhk

Forum discounts are effective as of today.

PM me if you have any questions!

I've been thinking of getting KOTOBUKIYA Boba Statue.
but I'm not sure whether their quality is comparable to Attakus
or Gentle Giant. I'd appriciate if you could shair your thoughts on it
or even post some pictures.

Gentle Giant and Attakus make higher quality statues. Generally speaking, you can expect better paint jobs and more detail from them. However, the Kotobukiya statues are still quite nice. I think some of them have really good poses, which is the reason I started collecting them. They are also much more affordable, and they are being released much more quickly. Who knows how long it will be until Gentle Giant gets around to releasing a Boba Fett statue. Kotobukiya kicks ass in my book. I've been really impressed by them so far.

Higher quality and more detailed than Attakus???
What have you been smoking to say somethimng like that, wookie? It's pretty obvious you never saw an Attakus statue in front of you.
Bang for the buck, yes, better quality and more details? no way!

just because something isnt bigger,heavier, more limited (actually 2 of the 3 are just as limited, 1500 right?) and expensive doesnt mean it cant be of better quality and have more detail.
