I can get it for $68, but I still think that's way too much.

Well, there have been carded two-packs before this one, so it's not a completely new package design. I think the choice to make this a carded two-pack may have something to do with the fact that a card can be hung on pegs, whereas the standard two-pack box (see/ star wars) can't. (Although the new Disney two-packs are boxed yet also have a hanging tab glued on, so who knows?)

Thanks everyone. I actually have one more "grid" that's waiting to be added to these pics. It includes the Watchmen, KISS, and various other miscellaneous kubs, including "Ketsumeishi", a set of 4 kubs (Japanes rappers) I just got in, which I think are very cool.

I just didn't want to take up board space with messages with huge pics in them. Here are the direct links, if you're interested.

I don't know why the Super Battle Droid has such skinny legs, when the regular Battle Droid has standard kub legs. Makes the SBD really hard to keep standing, I had to use double stick tape under his feet just so he wouldn't fall over.

"Posting an image" is actually a misnomer, you don't post an image, you post a link to an image that is uploaded somewhere else. The main point to understand when posting images here (or to any messageboard) is that those images don't actually exist here, they have to be uploaded to another host/site first. (You can't upload images directly to a message board.) Once those pictures are uploaded to another site (e.g., Photobucket.com), you create a message here, and in the body of that message, you provide links to where the pictures actually "live". Those "image links" are clearly provided on Photobucket, so you can easily copy them and paste them directly into the body of your message here.

Since there are six regular figures shown, I think this is how Jabba will be divided up.
The pipe rack doesn't appear to have any joints, so that should be one piece. You can clearly see a dividng line for where the tail attaches to the body, and sizewise, the platform should divide into three pieces. That leaves Jabba's head and body as one piece, which I originally thought should be two due to the size, but since only six regular figures are shown in the series and there aren't likely to be chase build parts, this leaves the head/body as one piece.
On the other hand, if there are chase pieces, and previous series have had three chase figures, that means three chase pieces: Jabba's head and body could be two pieces, the gold base part of the pipe itself, and the handset, could be separate pieces from the brown rack. Maybe the gold pipe base, handset, and brown rack could be the three chase build parts. That way, everyone could still build Jabba on his platform. But I sure hope not.

I can't believe they would include a unique Jabba piece with the case chase kubrick figure. That would mean only 1 complete Jabba could be built per case. Then Jabba himself, the complete verison of him anyway, would also be one per case. And that doesn't make any sense, since the whole idea of this new Deluxe series is the ability to build the Jabba, which couldn't happen if there were chase build parts.
I think if there are any chase kubrick figurs in this series, they must come with the same build-a-part that comes with the regular kubrick figure in the case that they replace. E.g: Let's say Jedi Luke comes with Jabba's head. and Nikto is a chase figure you find randomly in the Jedi Luke box. Nikto would then also come with a Jabba's head build-piece.
Logically, this makes the most sense to me. And also, it's what I'm hoping for. Since, if the chase figure also comes with a chase build-a-part, that will make the chase figures even MORE expensive then they would be already.

Those look excellent. Earlier pics made me think Amanaman would be too tall, but based on that first group shot, it appears that he'll fit in a standard individual kubrick display case.

Here's what they would look like if they were all stacked together.
