If anyone ends up with a spare set of series 4 they need to get rid of , please let me know

Hemish


I don't think that will be a problem.   :)  A lot of us here should have three extra sets.  Personally I'm still debating whether to order a master case from Toys Chameleon or Spanky.  One things for sure I'm never going overboard like I did with series 2 again.   ;D

Holy crap! Thats a lot of Kubs!

Where is the best price so far on series 4?
BBTS has boxes for a little over 100$, and you would need to order 4 to get a sealed case.

BBTS: $109.99 per box of 12. $439.96 for 4 boxes.

HLJ: $85.37 per box of 12. $341.48 for 4 boxes.

National Console: $102.00 per box of 12. $408.00  for 4 boxes.

Spanky: 

Toys Chameleon: $75.19 per box of 12. $300.76 for 4 boxes (reservation price). $93.99 per box of 12. $375.96 for 4 boxes (regular price).

Blister.jp: $79.82 per box of 12. $319.28 for 4 boxes (reservation price). $93.95  per box of 12. $375.80 for 4 boxes (regular price).

Hmmm, Toys Chameleon has the best price thus far based on todays exchange rate, also depends on the shipping cost.

If I remember, BBTS sent out a Master Case if you order 4. Who ordered that case, Jeff?

I got a master case from BBTS last series.
I also emailed Joel about this series, if you order 4 boxes, he told me you would get a sealed case.

Does Toys Chameleon ship to the US?

I just saw on www.robby.jp they are preselling them for  6,084yen  per box.
I might try and order a master case from them. I think you have to have a business account with them though? Not sure yet totally.

Toys Chameleon ships to the US.

I got my Nightmare Before Christmas set C & my Toy Story set A from them.  They ship EMS, and although shipping is expensive, they don't overcharge.

Well, I finally got a chance to open up my Max Rebo set.

clicky for larger image...



Medicom sure loves this line, it really shows what can happen when a company cares about the quality of the product.  The detail on Rebo's Ball Organ is fantastic.  This is such an incredible set and the boxed presentation is equally stunning.

I think these little guys have easily vaulted themselves into my top ten favorite figures... which should last until Series 3 and Vader and the Emperor come out.   :P

Also, today at TRU I picked up a nice car display case that I'll be using for my Rebo Band set.  I'll probably also bust out the Speeder Bike set and set them up inside there too:

Very cool display idea there Jeff.  Looking forward to seeing the Speeder Bike set in one of those too.  Might talk me into picking those up myself.  How much was it?

Thank you, Mr. Nitpick.   ::)

It was called "Auto Show Case" and it was $5.99 plus tax at TRU.

Oh your more than Welcome.  :P

I picked up a box of display cases at TRU awhile back. Made by Testors and there are 2 cases in the box. The inside demensions are 9" x 4 1/8" x 4 1/2". There made for 1/24 or 1/25 scale cars but work very well for Kuby's. They look like the same as the ones I was getting from Michaels Craft Store but without the mirror bottom base and there stackable.  8)

I like the way I can show off my Speeder Bike and Max Rebo sets (LOOSE  :-X) and still keep them nice and dust-free.  I think this little case will work out just fine...   :)
