Thanks, Dale. I'll have to keep my eyes on that and see if it doesn't go too high.

That little cardboard thing could be cool. Interesting. I love the little things Medicom does.

Its gonna drop.  The people paying $130+ plus shipping are just nuts IMO.

I'd suggest you reign in that OCD there fella.  Not many of these pieces have gone up in the long term, aside from the early bird set perhaps.  Everything else has fallen in time.  I'm taking the official anti-JD approach to these.  I'll buy them in April :P

I'm with you man.  Although I definitely am repressing some urges.

Spanky has the Max Rebo set for 10,800 yen.  Very tempting, but I really want to get this set for as close to $100 shipped as possible.   :-\

I reckon this is going to be hard to find for under $100 without shipping. The carded Kubs cost about $30 delivered for the collectors club and are going for around $50-75 now. The odd one a bit lower than that.

The Max Rebo set is going to cost around $75 delivered from the collectors club.  I think therefore, most people won't sell them for under $100. So I think $100-110 plus shipping is what they will come down to.  But I think $29 sounds a bit high for shipping. I'll be getting a couple in this week so I'll check it out.

As for the lottery date, I don't remeber the exact date, but I think it's April sometime. I think Leia and the Droids Fett had about the a 2 month timeframe between batches.

Just and after-thought I had. The Rebo figures are first releases, where as the carded ones are variations. That will probably hold the price up.

I think that will play a BIG price in why these stay a bit more expensive, kinda like the Early Bird set (which seems to be creeping up again).

Most (like me) can resist the carded figures since they are variants, but with new figures like this, it's hard to pass on them.

Uh... I meant resist opening them since they are variants... yeah, that's the ticket.  ;)
