Animated Style Yoda & R2-D2 Maquette
Gentle Giant produced an edition of 2500 Yoda & R2-D2 maquettes for sale during it's whirlwind "2007 World Tour". The "World Tour" was comprised of the variouos conventions, like Celebration IV and Baltimore Comic Con, where Gentle Giant exhibited a presence. Unlike the specific convention exclusives (Clone Commanders), this maquette was offered for sale at each of the major events Gentle Giant attended. It's still an exclusive piece in a sense, just not quite as exclusive as most Gentle Giant collectors are used to.

The sculpted detail on this maquette is striking. I particularly like the curious personality of Yoda' snake.

As the base photo illustrates, this particular maquette is #20/2500.

The above photo shows off the attractive packaging accompanying the maquette.

The box bottom, as is typically the case with Gentle Giant products, features the matching number to the maquette, in this case #20.
