Surprisingly, this beautiful Star-Lord Guardians of the Galaxy mini bust by Gentle Giant is actually based on the character’s look in the popular Marvel comic book series and not the upcoming live action GotG film, but to The Blot that’s makes it even cooler!!! Personally, I always prefer toys and statues based on a character’s traditional comic book appearance rather than their updated movie looks. And this 1/4 scale Star-Lord mini bust will look especially sick next to last year’s Groot mini bust by Bowen Designs. Here’s hoping we see more GotG mini busts released throughout the year.
Never one to turn down a fight, Star-Lord is depicted wielding his twin blasters in the throes of combat. This kinetic limited edition bust, digitally sculpted by Gentle Giant’s master artisans, is rendered using the highest quality polystone and hand painted. Each piece comes individually numbered and is paired with a matching certificate of authenticity. Not scheduled to be released until the fourth quarter of 2014, you can pre-order this Star Lord Guardians of the Galaxy mini bust from Entertainment Earth for $76.99 here.
Peter Quill is not your typical human-alien hybrid superhero. Orphaned at a young age, Peter grew up to be a washout of NASA’s astronaut training program before a mysterious alien force offered the mantle of Star-Lord, an intergalactic guardian and peacekeeper. As Star-Lord, Peter has lead armies, saved universes and fought toe-to-toe with the likes of some of the most infamous villains in the Marvel Universe. Now leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy, Star-Lord is a force to be reckoned with, and his legend is just beginning!
