Pride Displays
ANH Vintage Style Diorama Retired |
After 3,000 pieces, the Pride Displays A New Hope
Vintage style display diorama has been retired. Less than 1,000 pieces are still
available throughout the UK, EU, and the US.
"Pride Displays vintage
style Star Wars diorama has retired production at just 3,000 pieces worldwide.
Pride Displays first Star Wars diorama was a blast from the past in every sense,
and grabbed the attention of admiring fans across the world. With it's 70's
packaging and classic sculpting style it was destined to be special piece, and
now only a special few will ever know how sweet it feels to look upon their
cherished Star Wars figures on the original Pride Displays Star Wars diorama.
The 'A New Hope' diorama was always a big piece and was designed to stand out,
but sadly the large format packaging created unforeseen logistical implications,
thus Pride Displays have redesigned how they produce and package their dioramas.
2006 will see a wide range of Star Wars themed displays with a whole new look,
same big size diorama but in a smaller box with a smaller price tag."
