Notes

Releases by Year

The checklist is now broken out by year of release.  Many items were not shipped in the same years as their pre-order and it’s also possible that some items sshipped before others that had been on pre-order longer.

All release years were based on first reports of items being delivered.  It’s possible that some items shipped at the end of a year did arrive before 12/31, but reports appeared after the holiday and we based the checklist on those dates.  This may have affected only a few items.

Pricing

Prices listed are original retail prices direct from Gentle Giant.  In the case of exclusives that had lower prices for items picked up at an event vs items shipped, we list the lower price.

For itmes that were exclusively sold by retailers, we based our price on Razor’s Edge Collectibles.

There are many blank prices as we didn’t start tracking them on a regular basis until 2010.  We’ve filled in historic information when we’ve been able to track down reliable sources.
