Congrats Wayne, it looks superb and great price too. Do you have a special spot for it?

I only got a small Gentle Giant item:  Slave Leia accessory pack mini-statue, she is really cool for the size (if anyone is interested in Jabba's arms and hookah pipe please let me know)

Boy, I have to hand it to Greg at Gentle Giant: He's become my Guardian Angel at that place!  I emailed because my account was messed up, it was not registering my updated credit card when I had updated it, so my orders were getting cancelled.  Not only did he fix that, he's addressed my questions concerning their potential attendance of C2E2 in April (sadly, no) and even the fact that their links to order the Republic Commando mini-busts weren't working.  He went ahead and put through an order for ALL 4 Republic Commandos; Scorch, Boss, Fixer, and Sev!  I was worried I'd NEVER get all 4, and he got me all 4 ordered and canceled my original Scorch preorder so I don't get a duplicate!  I got my shipping confirmation today, so they'll be here on the 12th!  However, be careful for what you wish for; it's going to cost me more than $300 for all 4 delivered.  Ouch!

Well it's good to hear that some bad luck can turn to good luck and it's nice to hear a good customer service story. Nice additions,   I will be trying for one of the busts on the secondary market, I don't care which one I find I just want one of them.

Oh, how the wife is gonna kill me...I just saw that my bank account was debited by SWS.com for my Stormtrooper Commander mini-bust now!  That brings my total to over $500 this month.  That's like, 6 months worth of budget money.

You ain't a kidding!  Lucky for me, I got my bonuses this month so it hasn't eaten into our weekly operating budgets, but still!

LOL!  Did you join this year DC?  I did, of course, because I can't pry myself from the teat of GG.  I took the Faie as my free one and ordered Fox as well.  They do look amazing!
