Rusty, what is the timeline for shipping these?

I'm considering getting a third one of these for a Jabba torture gonk.

I have 3 all ready to ship and another 3 will be ready after this weekend.
Apart from sourcing some decent boxes and packing, shipping should be no longer than 2 weeks.

Stay Safe people

Couple weeks!

Hi, I will take one ANH unpainted, thanks.

Put me down for an unpainted ANH version. Thanks.

Jas or Rusty, could you post a pic of what the legs look like standalone outside of the body, and also maybe a pic of the inside of the body where they slot in? Just trying to figure out how difficult it would be to affix the leg stems to two ball joints up inside the body to get some leg articulation.

The body will impede articulation no matter what, but to have the option of a suggestion of walking vs standing might be cool (though yeah, gonk is not exactly a ninja-poses character.) even if not essential for most people.

You need a Hoth gonk with donut to go with those awesome Hoth troopers of yours.

Deposit paid. Thanks.

I thought about it. I will pick up a second one down the road. Moving is expensive.

I'm still in for one of course. Are painted versions going to be offered down the line, or is just going to be unpainted? I'm fine with getting an unpainted one, but honestly I really wanted to see what Pete could do

Yeah, very curious re: Pete paint too for the sandcrawler version (as it has a quite subtle rust-metal finish,) but tbh the paint's not hugely critical on these like so many SW items.

It was actually one of the positives I mentioned to Rusty early on - that gonks have failrly basic paint so even unsklilled people could do a decent enough job even with just some gunmetal spray.

Gonks are a cool side display item but it's great these can be had fairly affordably, also as we knew the Hot Toys one was coming even at the start and would be available for around the same price (though less accurate than Rusty's.)

So is the painted version definitely going to happen, or has it been put on permeant hiatus?

Thanks.

 

[Rustyj]

It?s on hiatus

Huge thanks to rustyj and Jas for making this happen.

No problem at all

I'm on 24Hr call at the hospital this Bank Holiday weekend, so fingers crossed I have a quite one and get some quality time in the J-Cave and get the rest cast.

Stay safe people
