C3PO GG Mini-Bust Questions

[SirJediKnightTim]

The C3PO GG Mini-Bust looks incredible, and I can't wait to get it. But I have a few questions. I'm reading conflicting info. about it.

1. Is is 18K or 24K gold plated?
2. Will it be released in Nov. or Dec.?
3. How many will be made?

Heres the answers to your questions:
1. I've heard that it will be 24K gold
2. It is scheduled for December but it will most likely be January
3. It is limited to 8000 pieces and will sell out fast i think.

Any new word on release dates?

Nope!

Still the same old story.

Last I heard it was due this month, but like others I'm thinking more mid Jan 05, but who knows.

Ok, so are these the same bust and 3POs arms are moveable, or are they dfferent busts. The first one looks like the pis of the GG statue I've seen, with the arm raised, but I've heard both called the GG 3po bust. I'm so confused.

It's my understanding that the bottom pic is the one we'll be getting. The top pic is essentially the threepio statue cut in half.

That's what I was thinking too, but these days you never know what kind of CHASE or Variants these companies will do.

Thanks, now to see if I can reactivate my pre-order...

Cancelled it cause of spending much on Xmas presents, but I do want the bust.

How the heck're ya gonna make a chase variant for a $50 bust? I mean what'll people do? "Hey, I'll buy 5 3PO busts, 'cause I know I'll get the chase variant that is in a slightly different shade of gold and has his arm up!"

I mean, I hate Chase variants as they are now, If they did that I would DESPISE it.

But...I know you're "just saying"....

I was just charged by AFX for my C3P0 bust. Hopefully it will not be delivered until I get back from vacation...

I just found C-3PO at my local Suncoast store, #7498/8000. He is out there now!
