TOY NEWS FOR 6/13/2013 - GENTLE GIANT - JUMBO KENNER HAN SOLO IN HOTH OUTFIT

I used to love this figure as a kid because it was the only Star Wars figure where you could actually put the gun in the holster... sorta.

Back then, I didn't know that it really wasn't made to hold the gun, but by sliding the gun handle into the loop on the holster, it did hold the pistol, and that was good enough for me!

Of course, my figure, back in 1980, wasn't a 12" monster like this one is.

The fact that this line has lasted as long as it has only proves that Star Wars fans are the most rabid in all of toy collecting. These figures are not cheap, and they take up a fair amount of room, but yet Gentle Giant has continued producing them on a regular basis for years now, with over 27 figures in the line so far.


Han will retail for $80.00 with a release date of Q1 2014
