Celebration Japan Wicket/Paploo Be@rbrick 2-Pack
« on: June 23, 2008, 02:00 PM »


For those wondering, these Celebration Japan Be@rs have different paintjobs on the heads from the previous versions (open mouth smiles).

It sounds like this one will be limited to 3000pieces, so they may not be that expensive to get after the show. 

I guess these will be a nice way for folks to finally track down the Wicket Be@r, but I have to say it's really going to piss off those who paid $150+ to get the first Wicket version.   :P

I don't have the original Wicket and my Paploo from the 5-pack has a ****** paint job, so I'm actually looking forward to this set.

As expected, this will show up more on the bay & with a large edition size I'll wait this one out.

Now at StarWarsShop.com!

Very cool!  I just placed my order.  I never found these at a reasonable price on ebay when they first came out and then they seemed to disappear as soon as they came out.  I'm glad I was able to get this set, especially for only $25 + shipping.

First SWS.com pushed back the expected ship date to 12/10, now they've removed the item from their web-site...  I have a bad feeling that expecting to receive this set through them was too good to be true and I won't end up getting it afterall.  It's too bad too, that was a good price for that set.
