Bespin Leia Jumbo Kenner Figure Up For Order Now From Gentle Giant
Star Wars collectors love the Kenner Jumbo Figure line from Gentle Giant, and the latest figure is now up for preorder. Leia in her Bespin Gown is the spitting image of her 3 3/4 inch self, standing at 12 inches tall, the figure comes with her faithfully recreated gown and blaster. The clamshell case is resealable, a major selling point on these that sometimes gets lost in the shuffle. I personally have a bunch of these and they are some of my favorite pieces in my collection. The figure can be purchased for $80, and preorders are open right now here.
Check out pictures and more details on the figure below!
Gentle Giant Ltd expands our hugely collectible line of 12" Jumbos based on the vintage Star Wars action figures with another key figure from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back! While escaping from the Empire, the small band of rebels aboard the Millennium Falcon seek asylum in Cloud City above the gas mines of Bespin. The city is being managed by Lando, and old friend of Han's, so they should be able to relax a bit before heading back into the fray. While Princess Leia did change clothes, she did not let her guard down while in "the city in the clouds." However it was too late… trouble had already found them…
Digitally scanned from mint 3.75" vintage originals and reproduced in scale to the rest of the Jumbo figure line. No detail has been overlooked in the creation of this Jumbo. Leia Organa (Bespin Gown) Jumbo is roto and injection molded and made of durable plastics, this fully articulated jumbo figure includes a faithfully reproduced including her vinyl cape and her blaster, just like you remember! That is not all, this classic creation comes packaged on a re-sealable 1983 Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back inspired blister card, with original photography and artwork!
