Looks like another SDCC 2012 Exclusive is up for pre-order from Premier Guild Members:
"McQuarrie Stormtrooper Deluxe Mini Bust is a limited edition of 1,800 pieces. This deluxe mini bust comes with 2 heads, 2 right arms and 2 left hands to provide a variety of different configurations for the collector."
I will try to put up a pic or two up once we see the different configurations. I have the Boba Fett McQuarrie Version, but passed on Vader. Not sure if I will get this or not. I am assuming this is at the $80 Price Point.

I have always been fascinated with the original design which was created by Ralph McQuarrie and then what we actually got when it came to their appearances in the movies. I would have loved to have seen what he thought an AT-AT Driver should have looked like.
I guess I need to correct myself too as I did buy the McQuarrie Snowtrooper. I don't know I might bite on the Trooper Versions just to say I have them.

I like McQuarrie concepts a lot. But I don't collect busts, I always prefer a statue or a figure instead. I will pass on this bust for now, but maybe in the future I might get one if price is good. Hope they will make a statue one day.

This is one that makes me really want to renew my PGM membership. Summer is such a bear on my poor wallet, and anymore, it's getting harder and harder to justify some of these things. But I do think this is a brilliant piece, done well.
