Item Prototype Description - Part of the "Great Imperial Leaders" collection, the most collectible and sought after is that of Grand Admiral Thrawn. This five-inch tall figurine is made of plastic, and is a representation of one of the greatest Admirals in the history of the Empire. The head bobbles with the slightest touch, providing nuance to the Admiral's characteristic disapproving look. The run of this bobblehead was limited to 1 Billion units, so is very rare and considered a prized collector's item.
