James Groman’s Star Wars Designer Vinyl Figures

“This guy’s got a lot of bang for the buck, as they say.” – James Groman

The Rancor™ Designer Vinyl Figure features sculpted slobber as well as the exaggerated proportions and Easter eggs that are part of the signature Groman artistic style. Articulated arms help bring this fearsome creature to life in any Star Wars display.

“The claws on the hands are especially gnarly, they’re just big and wickedly curved.” – James Groman

The Wampa™ Designer Vinyl Figure is actually based on an edited out scene in which a warning sign tells Stormtroopers that Wampas have been known to kill Tauntauns. That’s why this ferocious figure is holding a Tauntaun skull and spinal column.

With its articulated shoulders and tooth-filled maw, this figure is also even bigger than the Rancor!
