    I  pre ordered this a few months ago now, its finally coming, a six inch scale figure of George Lucas as a stormtrooper, such a nice idea, they did a small three and a quarter inch sized version a few years ago, now we have this one to go with it


    Heres the other  smaller version

    The count Dooku head is so detailed @Grinchy! It's like Christopher Lee is in the room :D I don't think I could paint on such a small scale either.

    thanks @L_Volunteer, it will be here in a couple of days, one of my favourites already for this year figurewise, and @Alex_Scope it is a very detailed paintjob, a combination of brush painting and airbrushing, i can handle an airbrush, but i doubt i could paint so small,

    I'm going to stick to the life size heads and busts, glad your hubby has found a useful way to paint on a small scale @SueHeath

    I really love that even the curtains are Star Wars curtains @Grinchy, that's impressive!
