Me three-go with Sidious.  My Obi-Wan and Anakin saber are marked "fullfilled" and my credit card has been charged.  Now I am just waiting to receive an email with the tracking number!!  That's the only thing that bothers me though.  I haven't been getting any emails from MR (had to ask Amy for the C3 invite and my Sidious order confirmation) so I am not sure they have all the bugs worked out of their conversion yet.  I really need to know the tracking status of these since I have to make sure someone is home the day they are suppose to arrive.

Still pretty excited though - it's going to be an expensive month!! ;)

Just got word from my dealer that Obi Wan's saber is on the way to him, so it's just  a matter of a little more time and it'll be here! :)

Why is this scaled Sidious saber going for so much?

Do the bidders think it's the 1:1 scale version?

Yup! Some poor sap thinks they are bidding on a 1:1 scale Sidious saber.

If no one hasn't already, I'll shoot him/her an email and give'em a heads up.

Those are fan made wallpapers that have been floating around the net for a while.

Sent the guy an email. It seems other bidders realized what they were bidding on and retracted their bid.

No I realize they are fan made, but why put them on your auction was what I was getting at.

Not sure. Even though they look kinda "neat" I wouldn't have used them. I guess if you really wanted to know, you could shoot him an email. Keep in mind though that the sellers responses have always avoided the point; so, don't expect a straight forward answer. :)

Also, looks my seller is getting in their MR shipment this week, so I should have my Obi-Wan and Anakin sabers soon too. I have to admit though, as excited as I am to be getting these, they are kinda just filler until the Sideous saber and Clone Helmets are released. Those are what I am looking forward to the most.

My Obi Wan and Anakin should be just around the corner.

I'm really looking forward to getting the 'Scum brand MR display cases, it'll be nice to have everything in the new style cases, which I like a LOT more than the originals.

Definitely looking forward to the helmets, these will be my first replica Star Wars helmets, it will be great to get some well made, authentic, licensed helmets. Vader's helmet is rumored to go on sale May 19th.

At some point I need to get the Ep.III Anakin and Obi-Wan.  I don't even wanna know how much that Vader helmet is gonna be.

Last I heard, they were going to retail for $899. I'm sure you'd be able to find it for less though.

BDW, I'm also looking forward to the newer style cases. I've managed to get enough of the new style plaque holders to go with them too.

Here are some shots of my Revenge of the Sith, Obi-Wan Kenobi lightsaber.  I have a shot of the AFBB with the ROTS one as well as shots of both plaques.

Damn, I hate looking at your MR stuff Beth!  :'(

It's all just so beautiful...  But currently unattainable for me, if I want to stay married (which I'm already pushing to the limits at this point, as it is...)

Great stuff though.  I love how you've added the corresponding 12" figures in there with the props.  8)

Nice comparison pics Beth. Glad I parted with my OWK AFBB for the OWK ROTS. I couldn't read what number you got though. :)
