The SI has carried that Yoda for quite sometime now (displayed at the B&Ms). Definitely not the GG version.

I believe the GG version is mixed media + f/x lightsaber.

There should be a thread in the GG section that highlighted the details. I think it was available as a convention pre-order exclusive (I forget which one)

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

This was made by Rubie's. GG is going to be made out of some polysomething or other. I talked with the GG reps at the con about how theirs will last over time and said that it would. Latex and foam eventually breaks down. I have this piece and like it but I might sell it in a couple of years beacuse of that reason. Also the lightsaber in the link above looks like it lights up and it does not.

I've walked thru a couple but like you I think they are a rip off and they have nothing I want. Anybody looking to buy the Yoda look around. You can find it for around $300-$400 on ebay. It is a cool piece.
