Last of the Gentle Giants for LEGO®? Say it ain’t so!!!
This past week The Star Wars Shop added the Luke Skywalker maquette made by Gentle Giant to their catalog which was first released by Toys R Us and later added to the LEGO® catalog. Since then I’ve been rather displeased with the fact that it wasn’t a limited production like the other 4 maquettes. The LEGO® retail stores I visited have piles of them sitting on their shelves. They also recently added them to their “Sales and Deals” list for a whopping $50. I paid the original $69.99 with Toys R Us so I am a little annoyed at that kind gesture of LEGO®.
Other than those unpleasantries, the following statement included with the description for the Luke Skywalker maquette listing on The Star Wars Shop struck an unpleasant chord as these maquettes look so great!
This is the final of the five LEGO Star Wars Maquettes produced.
Let’s hope they change their minds and introduce more Star Wars maquettes or even an Indiana Jones Gentle Giant maquette. ;)
