It´s not out yet. Looks nice, the flowing cape makes this piece different. I think Attakus have the best representation of the Royal Guard, but I like this one also, a couple of Guards in the same shelf.....nice!

I love the character design of the Royal Guard but this sculpt does nothing for me. Easy pass.

I dig it. I don't have the Attakus version. I do wish he didn't have the flowing cape though.

Any chance that pin holding the robe up is just for the prototype?

I agree with the flying cape thing, this is why i pass for this statue and this also goes for Darth Vader and Darth Maul with the flying capes.
On the other hand i love the Boba Fett statue

Gee, your opinion about the GG statues is the exact opposite of mine.

I really like those flying capes but I never liked that "rectal examination" pose of Boba's left arm.


To me, the only flaws about the Royal Guard are:

1. There is no GG Emperor so far to go along with two guards.

2. The cape is flying to the opposite direction of GG Vader's cape so that you can't display those together.


Anyway, I ordered two GG royal guards at the price of one third of an Attakus guard and I'm gonna display them along with my Kaiyodo Vader model kit, which is also sixth scale. And then there's always hope that GG will make a Palpatine one day.
