The Gamorrean Guards are the hulking, pig-like warriors who serve as palace guards for Jabba the Hutt. Known for their immense strength and intimidating appearance, they are armed with axes and other primitive weapons. Although not particularly intelligent, Gamorreans are fierce and loyal fighters, making them effective guards for Jabba’s palace on Tatooine.

Name: Gamorrean Guard (VC21)
Line: The Vintage Collection 
Manufacturer: Hasbro
Released: 2010
Price: $7.99 USD
Scale: 3.75 inch
Accessories: Vibrolance, long-handled axe, short-handled axe, removable helmet

I definitely bought a lot of this figure after my initial purchase. He’s definitely a figure you want to army build, in my opinion. The cloth skirt is a nice touch and removable helmet is cool, if not slightly annoying feature. 

I currently have about eight of these bad boys loose and about five MOC because well, I’m kinda addicted to buying these guys and I’m trying really hard to not buy more. They are really fun to play with and pose and having a bunch of them together on a display shelf is really neat. They really add to any ROTJ The Vintage Collection display.

SCULPTING

The sculpting on this figure has become one of my favourite sculpts out of Star Wars figures that I own! Although, I will say it’s not 100% accurate to what is seen on screen (Black Series matches this aspect better) However, I still love this sculpt. There’s just something about it that makes it almost perfect in my eyes and I wish Hasbro had given us an upscaled version for the Black Series on this one. 

PAINT

The paint applications on the Gamorrean Guard are very well done. But, be aware sometimes the horns on his head can be slightly sloppy. Otherwise the rest of the figure will be clean and up to expected standards from Hasbro.

ARTICULATION

 Articulation for this figure is great and fairly standard for The Vintage Collection figures released around this time. Mainly single hindge/swivel joints and ball joints and or standard swivel joints too. It’s all enough to make posing this figure quite fun and not too much of a chore. 

ACCESSORIES

The Gamorrean Guard comes with a good number of weapons – you get two axes of different size and a lance. The removable helmet is technically an accessory too. The best part about having so many weapons is that it allows you to add plenty of variation to each individual Gamorrean Guard on your display shelf and you can make each one slightly different. The Removable helmet is good, but if you are moving the figure it will most likely fall off, so be aware of that.

POTENTIAL PROBLEMS

Nothing to worry about with this figure. Besides that damn removable helmet!

PRICE

I paid after market prices for this one as I was late to the party. Honestly, those prices aren’t too bad all things considered and have remained fairly stable over the years for MOC samples, due to reissues of the figure. Loose, obviously you will pay less.

OVERALL

This is a great 3.75 inch figure! And easily one of my favourites of all time when it comes to The Vintage collection! It’s sculpting and articulation still hold up well and it’s army building potential make it a fun  figure to have in your ROTJ collection. Definitely a must have figure!
