The Clone Wars '08-'13 / Re: CW Clone Turbo Tank
« on: June 11, 2009, 09:17 PM »WOOHOO!
Scored this today at a mom & pop shop. I was happier about handing them the $99.99 than a big box store like WalMart or Target. And the box is REALLY heavy.
Surprised that you found it there before Target or WM have it - nice find!

Nicely done! These look great, though the heads seem a little small to me for some reason. Maybe just the angle. Thanks for sharing and hope to see more soon!

Holy crap. Thanks for posting. I hope they do a good job with Jetfire - or rather, I hope he looks G1 enough for me to pick up...

« on: June 11, 2009, 08:16 PM »Got my box from HLJ today, and the chase General Grievous was waiting inside. I was hoping for Tion as I'm not that impressed with Grievous. I'll take it though.
Nice! Did you just get one box?
I have an offer from someone on the Bay. He's selling a complete set of basic 6 and Gree and the Chase 4 arm Grievous for $200 plus shipping. If that nets out to $220 I'm not sure that it's a very good deal ($60 for basic, $40 for Gree, and $120 for Chase Grievous?) What do you guys think? I'm wavering back in forth on this one - doesn't help that I already have a box of S10 on the way.

Nope, this is the only one I bought today. I hope I didn't mistakenly post that I picked up another chase somewhere.
Actually, Jay just posted that he bought one off of Brian's Toys as well. I'm surprised that they had two - any chance that they have more? I checked the site, but didn't see any reference for him.

« on: June 11, 2009, 03:21 PM »Not the best time to be buying figures with all of the new releases out there, but I couldn't pass this one up. I picked up a Series 6 General Veers chase figure this morning and already have confirmation that it's been shipped.
Two in one day!?

« on: June 11, 2009, 03:00 PM »The case I'm splitting with Jeff is on route to me now. Hopefully I'll have it by Monday at the latest. The foil will be flying soon enough.
On thing my distributor said... even Series 10 hasn't been free of "mutant" cases. He said that one of his master cases ended up having 4 Grees and no rare chases. Another case had only 2 Grees and no rare chases.
Out of curiousity, how does your distributor know what was in each master case? Is this feedback he's getting from buyers or has he opened and checked that many master cases?

Kubricks / Re: Boba Fett Collection
« on: June 11, 2009, 10:34 AM »HLJ is SOL now, they put an order stop so they would not over sell.
BBTS ($194.99): Star Wars Boba Fett Collection Kubricks
NCSX ($165.90): Star Wars Kubrick Boba Fett Collection
A majority from here went with NCSX as it's closer to home for the US gang. I think I'm the only one that went with HLJ.
What was HLJ charging per box?

« on: June 10, 2009, 11:57 PM »Chases do sound inevitable, question is will there be more Fett/Mandalorian type characters, more McQuarrie type figures like a McVader or McSnowtrooper or something from Droids like Vlix? What ever they are it should be good.
Hmmn...how about McQuarrie Luke, Jodo Kast, and Coleman Trebor?

That's what I figured. So it's possible that out of two boxes, we will both get the boxes with no chases, but odds are that one of the two will either have a rare chase or the Gree. Jay's luck has been pretty outstanding the last 4-5 months, so I'm banking on him getting some kind of chase in his. Hopefully the Gree box.

« on: June 10, 2009, 07:34 PM »It would be nice to know how many people ordered these. We know that between me, evenflow, outcast34 and jedijman that's more than 1 MC, so at least two of us should be getting a chase. At least, in theory we should...
If I didn't say so before, I ordered two boxes - one for me and one for Jay. Did the rest of you just order one box? Even with two boxes, I guess I'm expecting Jay or I to at least find a Gree, but will be interesting to see how it all nets out. Are the easy chases (2:48) always in one box or do they sometimes release one in every other box?

« on: June 10, 2009, 04:36 PM »To be honest what I want above all else is Medicom to start shipping to the UK and stop this Japan/Hong Kong exclusivity. I don't know maybe Ebay pay medicom a large amount not to expand into the international market
Otherwise I'd like to a return the the OT
Forget the UK - can they start shipping to Minnesota?!
