If anyone wants an Indy card I sell  them for $20.  Comes with bubble and footing.  They're easy to card yourselves.  Let me know.  I'm placing another order soon.  If you want any others I'm trying to liquidate so let me know.  T

That is cool Tony, I wish I had Indy #2 so I could do a carded version.  Nice work :-*

As such, I think it bothers me a little now, that R2's bubble is on the "wrong side"...

I think it's on the right side. Yet again Medicom prove that they have an eye for detail.

And that is why I love that figure so much. (Thanks again Simon) It is so much like the vintage one. I can't wait for a Droids C-3PO from them (as well as a regular one).

Sorry, I should've elaborated there...  When I said "right side", I just meant consistent with the carded Luke and Boba Fett, both of which have their bubbles on the left hand side.  But yeah, it's definitely consistent with the carded vintage figure, and that's what really matters most I guess.

Speaking of which, can anyone tell me how this R2 just dropped into my lap for such a low amount?  Did I miss something here?  I was browsing through my e-mails this morning, and saw a new eBay invoice which I thought was odd, 'cause I wasn't planning on winning anything.  But sure enough, the chinsy little $82 bid I put on that R2 actually won!   8)

Just hope I didn't miss anything there.  The picture makes the card front look all wacky, but I'm assuming that's just some distorted issues with the picture, and not the actual card having major printing problems.  (and no, I never asked the seller about that)  I think that's just a glare on the top left corner too (hopefully).  But if the card is jacked up, I guess this one will just have to be my "opener".  So here's my new R2, assuming everything else goes well...



Back in the club again!   :)

Congrats Matt. Darn good price, that seller had that one on auction before & never sold then relisted at a lower price.

"STAR WARS R2-D2 from TV series"

There not going for much that I can see. The one you bid on before went for $90. other than that, what the heck is up with g_b_u? He one 2 more R2's!

Star Wars R2-D2 Kubrick

Wars R2-D2 Kubrick Limited

I know he's got 1 inhand thus far & the other 2 from Andy, well don't know about that one, maybe gave up on him.

Not sure if you guys have been watching the completed auctions but there were auctions that looks like it may have been a scam according to the 1 feedback left.

KUBRICK 2" 21-BACK BOBA FETT

Just a word of caution guys, lets watch who we get them from.

Congrats again Matt, now go get a Boba!  ;)

Wow, patience is definitely a virtue, speaking of which where's my damn Artoo Andy >:(  Nice job Matt!

Did either of you two get tracking numbers from him?

I've been thinking of buying the Boba variants since I have some extar dough to spend...haven't seen the vinty version for a while though.

The more common Fett seems to be had for around $70

I forgot to mention that I think part of the reason is due to the seller's auction title.  He doesn't have the words "carded" or "Droids" in the title, so I bet it's not showing up on a lot of people's eBay searches and/or notifications...

Cool with me!

See my comments above about Fett?  One of the ROTJ versions ended at $50 just recently, though a couple others were still around the $70ish mark, like you said.  But yeah, the vintage version is nowhere to be found of late (aside from the carded samples).  Interesting.  I wonder if that one really is rarer than the ROTJ version...  Good luck Scott!

Maybe the best eBay feedback profile  I've ever seen.  (has an R2 up for $100)

Yeah I saw what you said, just reiterating the fact I guess :P  Eddie (vince.carter) has had some Fetts for BIN prices over $75 for a couple of weeks...I may just bid $60 on some and see if I get lucky

No tracking numbers from Andy thus far.  ::)  I mentioned to Brent to send him an email & ask for the tracking #.  

As a matter of fact, I'm going to email him right now. There coming to me that we know of & I want to track these puppy's!  ;)  

Opps! Almost hit that neg button there!  ;D  Lucky it has duct/duck tape on it right now!  :D

A parcel arrived by Purolator just a short time ago. It was the R2 that I won the 2nd time around.



Just have to wait for the parcel from Andy!
