I expected insanity but not that much insanity
$1100 thats just freakin stupid
The problem with America is stupidity I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself

Maybe, maybe not.  Depends where it goes, what your connection speed is and maybe whether you're a hyperwaste member or not.   ;)

Considering how much a Hyperspace membership costs, and that cost relative to what this piece is fetching on ePay, it would be an absolute BARGAIN to get the Hyperspace membership and pay $50 or whatever for the bust.

True enough, but I don't want to buy a hyperspace membership only in hopes of SWS.com getting it.  There's no guarantee they will either, those MBNA 3PO's were put up on the site without GG even knowing they were going on sale.  It may well end up at the GG fan club instead.

I'd put my money on the GG CC. Most of the other convention exclusives made it to the CC, even though the Blister.jp event wasn't technically a "convention".  I can't wait till this is over with! The anticipation has been so long endured that it's killing it for me.  :-\ I still hope to get one though ;D.

Talk about cheap!   :o

Thanks Jeff, I finally opted in for the Vader mini bust.

Yoda and Vader sold out.  Han is still available.  Might be a good thing for me. I was going to buy all three and since they would have been my first Busts, it would have opened a can of worms with regards to the rest of the line.

I'm in the same boat as you Mikey.  I was about to grab all three at those prices, but then Yoda was sold out - then I debated on Vader - and now he's gone as well.  I went ahead and ordered the Han, because I always did want to pick it up along with the upcoming Chewie - and at this price I don't feel quite as bad.  Its funny, I thought the same thing when I saw Yoda and Vader were sold out - that it was probably best, because then I'd see myself wanting to get more and more of them :P.

Wish I had waited for the Yoda and Vader until this sale since I payed full price but at least I got Han for $17.50 plus tax and shipping.
