Gentle Giant is holding true to their namesake and are working on articulated, life size versions of the original Kenner action figures. On display at SDCC is the first the Stormtrooper (teased yesterday by YodasNews) and word from Rebelscum is that they are working on Darth Vader featuring its signature vinyl cape and telescoping lightsaber.
Our friends at Galactic Hunter have snapped a pic from Hasbro’s booth showing a placard for an exclusive Droid Factory set coming this November for $59.99. It looks to include many of the canceled Build-A-Droids and other from the defunct Droid Factory line. Jedi Temple Archives received word at Toy Fair from Hasbro that they were trying to get these figures to the public, so it’s nice to see it’s coming to fruition.
Update: According to Galactic Hunter, the retail partner for this set is Amazon.com
Gentle Giant has some great new items on display at SDCC – the newest is this awesome realistic Clone Wars Yoda statue. Head to Galactic Hunter’s Facebook page to give it a look and like!
