Sideshow Collectibles has started a new “Mythos” line of 1/5 scale statues that shows Star Wars characters in ways that weren’t seen in movies, but might have been hinted at. For example, they’re going to have a statue of Obi-Wan Kenobi as he might have appeared between the events of Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.
In this case, they’ve come up with a completely new character called Lomrokk. They’ve written a short story to introduce the character, but the concept is that Jabba used this particularly large and intelligent Gamorrean as his executioner before he had the rancor to take care of things like that. I’m a fan of Gamorreans, but the actual on-screen designs are more comical than intimidating. This guy, though, looks like a real badass.
The Mythos line is exclusive to Sideshow, so you can only get it by ordering direct. I imagine that I’ll have to put in my preorder next week.

This looks superb. I really like the look of the myths line?
