This 6" Gamorrean Guard was released towards the end of July 2018 exclusively at Target stores
The Gamorrean Guard came with a vibro staff, an axe and a hatchet
The Gamorrean Guard's helmet is not removable
The harness across the chest is its own piece and can be moved around, but it's not meant to be taken off the figure (the same goes for the furr around the lower body)
All the weapons fit perfectly into the Gamorrean Guard's hands, and he is even able to hold the vibro staff with both hands at the same time
The Gamorrean Guard's jaw can be opened, this allows for a bigger variety on a display shelf if multiple Gamorrean Guards stand next to each other
Hasbro sculpted the figure beautifully, and the figure is a spot-on representation of the character from Return Of The Jedi
The shoulder bells, which are not removable, limited the arm movement, but it's not a deal breaker
The head movement feels limited as well, but there is still enough wiggle room to have the figure look up/down and left or right
The paint application looks great, there is subtle weathering and dirt on the outfit and the face was painted very well
This Gamorrean Guard has no balancing issues
All in all this is a very exciting entry into the rapidly growing Black Series 6" line from Hasbro, with three different weapons included and a jaw which can be opened, you can pick up several of those figures and have them look differently on a shelf
The $10 mark-up (regular non-exclusive Black Series 6" figures currently cost $19.99) to $29.99 shows and we think it's worth adding to the collection
This very same figure was rereleased by Hasbro five years later for the 40th anniversary of Return Of The Jedi in Kenner-inspired packaging, have a look here: Gamorrean Guard
PACKAGING TEXT
Burly, pig-like brutes who favored axes and other primitive weapons, Gamorreans were often used as muscle by Hutts and other underworld kingpins. Jabba the Hutt employed a gang of intimidating Gamorreans to guard his palace on Tatooine.
