Interesting picture, I enlarged it a tad to get a better looky.

The Kuby next to Boba looks like a Stormtrooper to me, I'm gong by the black marks on the mouth piece, where the arm connects to the body and the black mark around the hand.

I think the Stormtrooper and Fett are from this line…

The first to figures are the VCD Stormie and Fett.
The last 2 are 400% kubricks for sure. I still think it may just be a han/luke with helmet on
displayed like a stormie

just my 2 cents, but a alot of that stuff was probably proto-types at the time he got them. You know, kinda checking them out before production. Medicom might have made all 3 and just decided to make the ones we got.

Hi all,
Long time lurker here, saying thanks to everyone who has contributed to this board and the main Attack of the Kubricks forum.
Thought I would share some goodness - here is an e-mail I received from Blister Direct on the 400% kubricks:

Welcome, kubrickfan, glad to have you on board!

I pre-ordered my Han & Luke Stormtroopers through HLJ.com, and they listed them available as of December 31.  So your news is encouraging that we may see them even sooner.  8)

Congrats! Can`t wait to see some pics of these guys with other Kubs.
Looks like I`ll have to be passing on these if what Tan said at KW is true (and
it most likely is I would think).

You mean that the wholesalers' orders will be cancelled?  I was starting to get worried about that.  I'll keep my fingers crossed that HLJ can still come through.

wat i heard is the wholesalers' orders arent cancelled... but rather cut.. min 50% orders..

but it might be untrue. let's jst wait and see..

The gang over at Hyperspace Japan have received their 400% Kubys and have posted some great pictures...

I must admit that I'm a little disappointed that these don't appear to have window boxes like Fett.   :(



Also of note, like other speculated, both of the figures can wear their Stormie Helmet:
