So, any shows coming up anytime soon that might shed light on the release date? I'm starting to get a little shake going from lack of new fumes...

With that update, we get a better look at the set.  8)

Chase will be?

A Jedi.
A different colored clone.
A different Wookie.

Since Dan, Jeff & Jayson locally pick up master cases, or portions of a Master Case so they have extras....

Can one of you put me down for the following...


Anakin
Darth Vader
Palpatine
Grievous
I have been told to go to hell; well at least I will know everyone there!

These look great!  It's kind of funny, but at first glance, Palpatine's face reminds me of K'Kruhk...

I really want to get the Clone Trooper, Grievous, & Tarfful. I really can't afford to buy a case just for those three, but if I have to I just might.

Forgot to mention it earlier, but I'm definitely in for a MC of this series!

I think Tarfful is going to end up in my all-time top 5 favorite Kubricks.  Fantastic! :)

April '09 seems like a long ways away (especially when you add the likely 1-3 month delay they always seem to have), but at least my wallet is happy about that.

I was hopeful for a pre-Xmas release, but time was running short for that.  :-\


At least it is something to look forward to next spring!

No problem DSJ

It appears MSRP has gone up a little over 10%

Yeah, I was noticing that price increase too.

S8/S9 = 924 Yen MSRP
S10 = 1029 Yen MSRP

That's a little over 11% jump in the MSRP.  It probably means that by the time we jump through the hoops and get them here in the USA, we'll be looking at a potential 20-25% increase in price from S8-9.   :'(

That is getting expensive!  Hopefully they case distributions will be good enough that we get a decent amount of chases for our money  :)
