Gentle Giant continues its Hoth themed releases of its popular line of Jumbo Vintage Kenner Star Wars action figure reproductions with the seriously massive Wampa! The Blot is seriously shocked Gentle Giant decided to release this in scale version of the Empire Strikes Back monster considering that makes it 22” tall. The only downside of that is they increased the price 500%. How does that math make sense?
Digitally scanned from mint 6” Kenner original action figure, this Jumbo Vintage Kenner Star Wars Wampa is an exact replica of the classic ‘80s toy! Injection molded and made of durable plastics, this jumbo figure features swinging arm action (just like the figure that inspired it) and comes packaged in Empire Strikes Back inspired vintage style packaging featuring original photos and artwork.
The Star Wars 22 inch Jumbo Vintage Kenner Wampa action figure by Gentle Giant is not expected to be released until summer 2014, but it can be pre-ordered through Entertainment Earth for $399.00 here.
