 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
As cool as the stormtrooper is, I've been strong and passed on it. (mostly due to funds, but I also have no room for it). But I may not be able to resist a Boba Fett.

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
Justin, the video is great, and the pictures from Punkin', Mars and everyone are great as well. To see the Super Shogun Stormtrooper sitting there in the mix with that great vintage and new SW stuff makes me very proud. It is about the collection and the joy it brings, and this sums it up so well. Thanks to everyone - See you Saturday!

The Bounty Hunter Wars, also recounts Boba Fett's escape from the Sarlac.

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
Can't wait to get mine on Monday! and seeing the coming soon silhouette is pretty orgasmic in and of itself, and I just have to geek out and be fan boy and ask if at ALL possible, if the Boba Fett Jumbo is really in the works, if there is ANY WAY you could incorporate the rotating aiming guide on the side of the head with the see through scope magnifier ala` the original 12" figure, that would be too cool for my school.

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
DUDE....Jumbo Boba....AWESOME. Man..I am so in love with these Jumbos. Thank you S7 for making such amazing figures. Being someone who didn't enjoy the original figures as I am just a little too young, I am really enjoying learning about the history and nostalgia that these new jumbos carry with them. Can't wait to have a couple of these to display together.

I was playing this guy all night. Firing the fist at my fiancee while she was trying to watch tv. I was a kid all over again.

It ruins the rug and presents a severe choking hazard, all at once! I was surprised that the thing even got licensed in these days of uber-safe childhoods, but I seriously regret not buying it.
