What Scale are Attakus Star Wars Statues?
Was thinking about getting into them and wanted to know if they can be displayed with a few Gentle Giant ones I have.

Attakus SW statues are 1/5 scale while GG's are 1/6 scale. 
I had some GG 1/6 statues but eventually sold them. After my first few Attakus pieces I realized I liked the larger scale and Attakus' attention to detail more. So for me personally I didn't like them displayed together.

thanks, I had to take a look at Attakus after I was really waiting for the Obi-Wan statue from GG and it came out looking terrible.

Yeah its to bad about the Clone Armor Obi-Wan. I was even considering getting it after seeing the proto pics. Glad I waited.
Attakus has the best SW statues on the market IMO but unfortunately I don't like their Obi-Wan that much. Its a beautiful sculpt with some great detail but the likeness is way off and really hurts the overall appearance.

Well they have some many good statues out there it would take me a loooong time to even get to that point to worry about him. Besides they may make a new trilogy Obi.

Hopefully they do make a prequel Obi-Wan. I'd also love to see Count Dooku at some point too. Attakus has improved on their human likenesses and even some of the older releases like Han and Padme look great IMO.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Yeah its a great comparison shot. It just confirms to me though that the Attakus Vader I is still THE definitive Vader.
