This very special Gamorrean™ Bust Concept Maquette Replica – Dave Carson Legacy Edition goes beyond a signature edition to provide each owner with a truly unique work-of-art. It’s part of our Star Wars™ Archive Collection, a continuation and expansion of our work creating authentic replicas with impeccable lineage. 

Extremely Limited to just 60 pieces, each hand-painted maquette in this special Legacy Edition will include a premium expanded plaque including a stunning, one-of- a-kind and full-color illustration. Each was dreamed-up, hand-drawn and watercolor painted by legendary creature sculptor Dave Carson, who sculpted the original maquette for the film!

The included 3 5/8” wide sketch comes beautifully matted within an 5”x7” frame that also houses a hand-numbered metal nameplate, hand-signed by Carson. That frame can either stand on a table top or hang on a wall. 

This maquette was the first step in designing the classic Gamorrean Guard characters. With hands-on access to the original film artifact and high resolution 3D scanning, our team crafted a faithful recreation of the concept maquette for this fan-favorite from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™. 

At approximately 6.25” tall (including the wood display base), each is cast in solid heavy resin. 100% made in the U.S.A., every replica in this edition is meticulously hand painted by the artists in our New York studio, making each a unique tribute to the artistry involved behind the scenes of our favorite films! The maquettes are hand packed in a gloss black box with die-cut foam insert and COA, and double-boxed for shipping.

Do not miss this extraordinary opportunity to bring home not just an authentic replica, scanned from the original artifact, but also an original work of art with a direct connection to the artists that inspire us!

The Archive Collection - Recreating an Artifact

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi gave us a look into the palace of Jabba the Hutt™ and the Gamorrean Guards in his employ. Classic, behind-the-scenes documentaries at the time were a big part of how fans like me relived the film and explored the darkened corners of that palace and the creatures who resided there. Learning about the ILM creature shop during the production of that 1983 film was a big part of what led me to a life in the world of FX and movie monsters.

We worked with Dave Carson on our Nien Nunb™ Concept Maquette Replica and when we first started thinking about sketches and what would become our Legacy Editions, Dave was immediately on board. When we got our first “sketches” back, we were blown away with the color, depth and detail that he put into each! It’s not even fair to call them sketches. They’re beautiful illustrations enhanced with stunning watercolors, each unique, hand-drawn and hand-painted. Each collector that brings one of this edition into their homes will be getting something absolutely original, extremely limited and very special. 

We’re all so proud of this special Legacy Edition, and I can’t wait to see it in the collections of discerning prop and statue fans and Star Wars collectors!”

– Tom Spina (Regal Robot founder)

During the production of films, the creature effects team will often dream up new and fantastic aliens and beasts by creating small scaled sculptures, called “maquettes,” to showcase their ideas. From this menagerie of maquettes, the film’s director and producer choose which characters will be brought to life for the film as costumes or puppets and what roles they will play in the story.

Sculpted by the creature shop’s Dave Carson, this incredible beast of a design was an early version of what was to become the Gamorrean Guards in Jabba’s Palace. Dave would go on to sculpt the large masks for full scale Gamorrean costumes along with many other creatures for the movie!

We are excited to share this new Archive Collection and look forward to sharing our latest art and characters with you. Be sure to follow @RegalRobot on social media to keep up with all of the new collectibles we have in the works.
