Gentle Giant is now taking pre-orders for their Jumbo Kenner Zuckuss figure.
Referred to as “the Uncanny One” by other bounty hunters, Zuckuss is one of the top bounty hunters hired to track down the Millennium Falcon after the Battle of Hoth. This ammonia-breathing findsman is especially dangerous because of a well-kept secret – his affinity with the Force!
Digitally scanned from mint 3 3/4” Kenner originals, Zuckuss has been reproduced in scale to the rest of our exciting Jumbo Kenner Vintage line. No detail has been overlooked. Roto and injection molded using durable plastics, this fully-articulated jumbo figure includes a faithfully reproduced Blaster rifle.
That’s not all, this classic Kenner creation comes packaged on a 1980 Empire Strikes Back-inspired blister card, featuring original front and “45 back” artwork, in a re-sealable plastic outer clam shell to help protect and display!
