I saw this post and it reminded me that I needed to post about it. Rather than bury my comments here I made a new post.

Many thanks, but I've tried targging them individually then doing /pickup as well as typing /pickup Gungan Head Statue, however, it simply tells me "You cannot see Gungan Head Statue."
With much /moving forward back and /rotating I've managed to pick up four of the approximately 25...it's taken me half an hour now...
Back to the gungan head statue dance...*cries*

Get as far away from them as you can. Do /move forward 10 to push them as far as you can. When you get the "invalid location" then switch to /move forward 1 and push some more. Then with the one you just moved selected, type /pickup.

This has happened to me and you need to move each item...head in this case... away from the others. So they stand by themselves. Once it is clear of the other heads you should be able to pick it up. Oh... make sure you are not standing in anything, nor should there be any object in between you and what you are picking up.
/move forward 1-50
/move back 1-50
The command suggested /move back 10 works good. Just make sure it is clear of the other heads and you should be able to pick it up by using Radial or /pickup command.

Update from Desperate on Farstar...
With much messing about and puzzling over the information available to me, I managed to pick up all 20-odd statues.
Someone mentioned that the Gungan Head Statues have a huge footprint. It stood to reason that moving one statue at a time out of the footprint of the others should do it. It did. 
It seemed that I needed to move one statute at a time into a clear area no less than 80 tiles away from the others before I was then able to "see" it and subsequently pick it up. There was a great deal of typing "/move back 50" followed by "/move back 30" - eventually made a macro for both commands which made things slightly faster.
Huge thanks to all who came to our assistance!

Okies, I've done searches here there & everywhere, checked Holocron in-game, sent tickets, tried everything I possibly know and now I am going to ask the experts here.
My partner is crafting Gungan Heads. Lots of them. At the moment there are approx 20-30 stacked in the corner near the structure terminalof his small tatooine house.
We can't see the boogers to pick them up. I know about /move forward 5 and /move back 5 and have /moved /rotated, etcthem right around the house but in no location can it be picked up. The /destroy gives me the Destroy Gungan Head Yes/No option but on clicking Yes nothing happens.
The Find Lost Item tab on the structure terminal either tells me I cannot see it or gives me something I didn't actually want moved to my location.
Some good Architect must know my pain! My only hope is that someone will post some way to get around this utterly frustrating "feature!"
Thanks in advance

I had one statue in my house. I wasn't able to do much of anything with most of the stuff in that room of my house where the statue was. The problem went away after I picked up the statue on the advice of someone around (probably Zen). It seems that the statues have a large footprint that conflicts with other items.
There is a /pickup <name> command but not sure how well that will work for you considering you've got multiple objects with the same name, but worth a try. e.g. "/pickup Gungan Head Statue"
