I couldn't wait to get home so I cracked these babies open in the TRU parking lot in front of Jeff and Dan

Says it all I think  :P

I've seen a few full sets on ebay and a few single fig sales for the 3 chases. All being sold or are going for silly money of course.

On the subject of silly money there are 2 carded Jorg Sacul's on ebay too going for a few hundred dollars each.


Damn you Jorg Sacul!!!!!!!

Anyway...same case set up as Jeff and Dale's and the Sing and Jar Jars were in the lower left corner of both boxes.

I also have spare Luke hair and wanted opinions what Li'l Annie looks like with a semi bowl cut



Scott, congrats the Aurra!  Looks like she's the rare chase of choice thus far for Jeff's order.

As for the helmet off Anakin, I had planned on doing the same thing you did with a spare Jedi Luke hair piece.  You might want to try modifying it a little to make it look more like a bowl cut, then it might look more like him.  I agree though about displaying both with and without a helmet.  Makes it a hard decision when he's only packed 1:12...

I think you need to turn the hair a little bit counterclockwise.  It looks like he's got a funny part in th current orientation.  However, its not a bad looking "custom".

We did Bricks N Beer.
Our case only had 1 Chase, Tin.
No Jar Jar no Sing.
Heve to see if this is a pattern.

That totally sucks.  So where you thought you were originally going to get 2 chases in your case, you only ended up with one...  Sorry to hear that man.  So how did the three of you decide who gets the chase?

For everyone who's keeping score at home:

Jeff's Master Case orders - 3 out of 3 Master Cases with both common and rare chases
DSJ's Master Case order - Both common and rare chases
Doc's Master Case order - Only a rare chase
Evenflow's Master Case order - Only a common chase

So 4 of 6 Master Cases have the typical assortment of rare and common chases that have been seen with past releases...  There was a song back in the day that once stated '2 out of 3 ain't bad', however there are two members of JD that wouldn't agree with that assessment...

Hey DSJ, you still thinking about keeping those other two boxes of 12 sealed now that we have another report of Master Cases being mis-packed?!  I'd really be interested in seeing if there are any Master Cases that were packed with two rare chases or two common chases in them by 'mistake'.

He grabbed Tin and headed for the door!  ;D
