Gentle Giant announces their 2013 Premier Guild Membership program and it includes a few pieces of Star Wars awesomeness, like a Jumbo Kenner "First Shot" Rocket Firing Boba Fett prototype!

Have you see this year's Gentle Giant Holiday Bust for Star Wars? It's Jar Jar Binks with a nifty santa hat and electronic lights! Numbered and limited to barely over 200 units, this particular version does not include Wald as a companion piece, but there is a swell magnetic base which masks the bust's "on" switch. There are multiple light blinking modes, and yes, we've got a video after the jump.

Gentle Giant has released their latest solicitations featuring new and exciting product slated for release in Q2 2013, including the phenomenal "realistic" Spider Maul Statue and the animated style Dewback and Sandtrooper.

Gentle Giant has announced their latest product and they're pretty fantastic. How fantastic you say? There's a new Sy Snootles minibust, a cooler than Hoth AT-AT bookend, and last but certainly not least, the must have Jumbo Vintage Power Droid (Gonk!) !

Gentle Giant is now taking pre-orders for the upcoming and very excellent Jumbo Rocket Firing Fett! Double that excitement in that the cardback is the classic Star Wars 21 Back "flamethrowing" version! Pre-orders are also being taken for the Jumbo Vintage Kenner Cantina playset, Jumbo ROTJ Gamorrean Guard, and Droopy McCool minibust.

While minibusts and statues remain the core of Gentle Giant's offerings, their Jumbo Kenner Vintage Figure assortment grows in popularity as well as selection and a new entry in their statue collection based on a certain tattooed Sith Lord's appearance in the Clone Wars series is the star of the show. 

Gentle Giant has posted a video showcasing more images of their new Comic-Con exclusive Admiral Motti Minibust including some boxed shots and 360 views.

Gentle Giant reveals a second exclusive minibust for San Diego Comic-Con. The Ralph McQuarrie Stormtrooper minibust is based on the master concept artist's early design and pre-production illustrations for A New Hope.

Gentle Giant, through their sorcerous ways,  doesn't conjure the stolen data tapes,  but they do reveal their fist exclusive piece of the summer conventions season! The Admiral Motti minibust will be offered at San Diego Comic-Con next month, but Premier Guild members can pre-order him now.

Gentle Giant has updated with some painted photos of their upcoming Premier Guild exclusive Republic Commando Minibust. The detailing on this piece looks fantastic and if you haven't signed up for membership yet, then do so pronto!

Gentle Giant updates their blog with photos of a fully painted  Rebel Fleet Trooper and digital sculpt of the Republic Commando Mini Busts. Both are Premier Guild exclusives slated for release later this year.
