@LEon - It's from Gentle Giant (With cooperation from Hasbro, who bought Kenner). They took vintage 3-3/4" SW Action figures and scanned them and made them 12". This was one of their show exclusives, on the Empire card, this year. I think they may re-release it in different packaging later on. the SW Celebration is supposed to have the Boba Fett version.
LOVE the large Storm Trooper. A store here in NYC brought one back (and jacked up the price, natch) so I had a chance to take a closer look. It's a great toy. I think a collection of them would be fantastic. Expensive, but fantastic...
@ Bubbashelby - Laugh it up, oh wait don't you have a dolly with green panties?
@ Doc Atomic - I don't think I will be in for the whole line, price and space to display. That said, since Stormtroopers are somewhat a focas for me, I knew this would be my one special buy. I think R2 is going to be a nice one as well.
@ jboypacman - Thanks! I think I did well with the budget I had going into the show.
@ rob! - I did have a pretty good time, it would have been a lot more fun if I had a few more friends that went, maybe next time. Oh and of course I had to pick up Aquaman, I was pretty excited to see someone selling him. Next is Black Manta!
Darrin they didn't have her for sale at the show, but she was on display with the future releases. I shot some pics of all the Venture Bros. figures in this post...
It's a freebie they were handing out, it's a preview of one of those visual encyclopedias, I believe it's by DK Publishing. Sort of like those Star Wars ones that have photos of props with all the details labeled and info about them set in that universe. I guess it was to promote the release of the Lost version of one of those books and the DVD collection.
Though I must say I was majorly disappointed in the ending. There is supposed to be bonus stuff on the DVD showing Hugo and Ben running the island. I saw a leaked portion of it yesterday.

@ Wings - Oh Yeah Aquaman!

Maybe I'll shell out for the R2.
Nice pick ups!

Are you a "Lostie"?
Yes I am a Lostie.

Nice grab of the freebie.
