Well, I'm going to have to take a look at her in hand to see if it's all of them, or if you got a poor specimen, which unfortunately does sometimes happen.  If so, perhaps you should contact Gentle Giant and let them know you're not at all happy with yours.  If you want to do that, I can contact my source at GG and see what can be done.  Just let me know.

If you wouldn't mind sending me that in a pm, I'd appreciate that.

I was really let down, normally their stuff is top notch, but this just seemed to miss the target.

I passed on the at-at as well, low funds.

I did recieve my darth talon mini bust, which honestly wasn't worth the money.

You didn't like her?  I was hoping to find her at CV next week.  What didn't you like about her?

The paint apps are a little lacking in quality. Her lips were poorly painted, and her face is different than the sculpt we first saw, and it's totally different than the picture on the box.

Between the black misplaced, the red being really faded in some places and her lips being the wrong color, the paint apps alone make it really not worth the wait or the price.

The quality of the bust itself feels a lot lighter than most of the busts.
She feels cheaper compared too the previous busts I've gotten before.
She's even lighter than aayal secura.

It might just be me bro or mine...but she really looks different facially.

Man that sucks!! Sounds like by your description a perfect BOOTLEG!!! i hope it all get sorted for you mate...

Well I'd agree if I got it off the bay, but I bought from ee.com.

[Vadersfist]

recent would be the TRU force unleash pack, a few droids and some snowys as well.

[Phatty]

Actually, if you got it from EE, I'd contact their customer service and tell them you are not happy with it and would like to exchange it for a different one.  If the other one comes back just as crappy, send it back for a full refund.

Went to two walmart for jabba and found a big nothing

[Clonehead]

Went to an Independence Walmart today and found my Jabba throne set. High price on that one..........$35
Also found another pre viszla and a camo arf trooper.

[Tamer]

Well I am getting closer as it looks like new stuff should be set out tomorrow or the day after as everything is moved around now. I did see the walmart vintage price stickers at 7 bucks a fig.

[B.R. Steel]

I picked myself up a Jabba this evening too.  After missing out on the TRU expanded universe wave, it's nice to score a few new things early.

[Phatty]

Man, I gotta try and find this baby!  I'm really stoked about it, for sure.

[Phatty]

Heck yeah!!! I stopped in at a Walmart by work this morning on my way in, and they were in the middle od setting up new stuff. Came back around 2:30 and they had the Jabbas Throne set, so I picked it up. They also had their regular figures for $4.50 and VTSC figs for $7.00!!!!
