Star Wars vintage figures "Grow Up"

Just like they were when you were a kid, only BIGGER! Gentle Giant is excited to debut their new line of vintage Star Wars Action figure reproductions with the release of this classic Empire Strikes Back Stormtrooper.

Digitally scanned from mint 3 ¾” Kenner originals and reproduced to a substantial 12” tall. Nothing has been overlooked. Injection molded and made of durable plastics, this jumbo figure includes a faithfully reproduced blaster and is fully articulated! That’s not all, this classic Kenner creation comes packaged on a 1980, Empire Strikes Back inspired blister card with a plastic outer clam shell to help protect and display this limited edition convention exclusive!

And guess what? Gentle Giant has announced that they will be making all 12 of the original Star Wars figures!! Here is a sneak peak of the back of the carded figure:

The 12" figures are feature in this month of Toyfare Magazine (look carefully to see the vintage small figures compared to their new jumbo counterparts!)
