PRE-ORDER: Sideshow Collectibles Star Wars: Rancor Designer Collectible Statue Set

"Oh no! The rancor!"

Sideshow presents the Rancor™ Designer Collectible Statue, an officially licensed Star Wars™ collectible based on the exaggerated, storytelling-rich style of artist James Groman.

Measuring 12" tall x 17" wide x 15.25" deep (30.5 cm x 43 cm x 38.7 cm), the Rancor™ Designer Collectible Statue encapsulates the essence of an iconic movie monster. Its textured, armored brown hide, elongated arms, and oversized talons are staples of both Groman's and the original creature's designs. With a salivating maw, the Rancor roars its displeasure at being chained. But now, the beast is loose - and its articulated head, arms, and wrist shackles allow collectors to showcase its rampage in their display. Fully sculpted and cast in vinyl, this Star Wars statue also comes with a Gamorrean Guard skull, which can either be placed on one of the Rancor's claws or used to enhance the scenery on your shelf.

Brave the pit and bring home your own Rancor™ Designer Collectible Statue by Sideshow and Groman today.

Star Wars Rancor Monster Artist Statement

The Star Wars franchise and I have had a long and prosperous history together. When first I saw the original film, Star Wars: A New Hope™ back when I was in high school, I had little idea of how it would eventually impact my professional career as a working artist in the coming years. After graduating college I was hired into the toy industry, eventually becoming a sculptor working on toy and model kits and collectible statues. One of my very first major sculpting jobs was working on the Rancor monster from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi™ vinyl model kit for Ertl collectibles around 1997. This figure garnered quite a reputation, and I obtained many sculpting jobs in the collectibles industry over the next few years. I was even hired as Design Lead on Hasbro's Playskool line of Star Wars pre-school action figures. This eventually led to a couple amazing trips to Skywalker Ranch at Lucasfilm in California, literally a dream come true for any Star Wars fan.

It has always been another dream of mine to work with my good friends at Sideshow, so when they approached me a few years back to concept and design a number of the alien critters from the Star Wars universe, my favorite character the Rancor was on the top of both of our lists. Phil Tippett's design and execution of this character, and its unforgettable presence in the film, has always inspired me. The attention to detail and spectacular realistic textures of bumpy, thorny, toad-skin has helped motivate me to do the same on every character I've ever worked on. Over the years of working in the designer toy space, I have developed a reputation for exaggerated features and storytelling details hidden within my designs. Our Rancor monster is by no means an exception, with his oversized talons and viciously enhanced snaggletooth maw. The design includes wrist-cuff, chain, ear ring, dripping slobber, and a claw-pierced Gamorrean Guard skull clutched in his elongated claws. Together with the incredible crafters at Sideshow, I pushed this design to be as striking, impactful, and memorable as it was to me when I first saw this fantastic beastie all those years ago on the silver screen in that crowded, darkened theater.
