For a higher resolution image, check out the main site .....


If you note, this will be in a worldwide limited edition of 2500 . Singapore will get the main bulk of 1500 pieces . 500 pieces will be sold through www.starwars.com , and the last 500 pieces will be sold through a UK distributor .

This is officially called the ART OF STAR WARS EXHIBITION EXCLUSIVE, which means that once the exhibition moves to other countries once the Singapore tour is over , they will NOT have this exclusive available for sale at the exhibition there .

This really makes it fairly exclusive to the Singapore tour of the exhibition , in that sense .

Don't quite like it myself.

I would have preferred R2D2 or the Millennium Falcon, however, I like to see it first before making the final conclusion.

Not impressed.

If it was the golden C3PO, I might have gone for it. But if it is the AOTC version in this dull grey version, I highly doubt that I will. Might as well do the skinless version in Ep I - this version is really neither here nor there.

Hey Boba Wai .... good call .... you are absolutely right . I have checked with Simply Toys and it is definitely from GENTLE GIANT and not from Master Replicas .

Thanks for alerting us to the mistake . Appreciate it. :)

Can order be done via SG Star Wars? Can't afford simplytoys membership fees. Would be great if someone can help me and/or others like me. I will be able to pay up front for the bust.
