There has been much speculation on the degree of articulation included with the 12" Gamorrean Guard by Sideshow Collectibles. Worried about the inclusion of swivel joints instead of higher quality ball-joints, it has been clearly addressed through their "Ask Sideshow" segment that Sideshow Collectibles has every intention on making 12" collectors very happy. Click through to read the question and their response regarding the level of articulation in the 12" Gamorrean Guard! It's exciting news!



Q: This question pertains to the new 1/6 scale Gamorrean Guard. I have 2 on pre-order, and I’m wondering about the articulation on this particular figure. The summary states the figure has a new articulated body, but with the photos, I’m failing to see where the articulation is. Can you help point me, and other customers, in the right direction on this one? Much appreciated and can’t wait to see what he looks like in his new box.

A: Yes, we are overdue with clarification about the articulation on the figure, which was finalized shortly before starting final production. The figure is very, very articulated, and poses really well for such a big boned bulky brute. To summarize, the figure has ball joints in the neck, shoulders, wrists, hips, and ankles, and swivel joints at the biceps. Knees and elbows do not articulate because the design team felt that the sculpture would be too compromised by any type of joint. We’ll be posting additional photos soon that better demonstrate his impressive range of motion, and we expect folks to have him in hand soon and taking their own photos.
