I saw this one at another site...

http://shop.southernisland.com/SearchResult.aspx?KeyWords=sandcrawler

$39.95 plus shipping at this little AZ comic/collectibles shop.  I have NO idea if these guys are reliable, I'm just passing on the info for those that are still on the fence on this one.  

Strange how the first pre-orders were at $60, then a bunch of places posted it at $50, now we're seeing $40 prices.  I wonder how much it will drop before it's all said and done?

I waited it out and then pre-ordered it from here.  It is funny how it dropped off in price but I jumped all over $39.99.  Don't see it getting much lower until after it's release.

Looks like a valid re-paint/rehash of the DS Droid to me.

Too bad we couldn't get another Droid (R5-D4) and the CT Jawa along with him instead of the Jawa 2-pack.

Anyone picking up a COUPLE Crawlers and want to unload their extra Death Star Droid?

I'm having a tough time justifying the vehicle still, but that's a dandy droid.

This too is the cheapest place I could find for the Sandcrawler. Has anyone ordered from them below, are they reliable or what? I'd like to get a Sandcrawler, but I'd like to do it on the cheap after getting burned with the Imperial Shuttle.

Just curious who here is planning on ordering/pre-ordering the Sandcrawler (or maybe already have)?  Which place are you going with to purchase it?  I'd kind of like to get one, although it is usually more than I like to spend on one item.  But, I never had one as a kid, and it looks pretty cool (although undersized).  Anyways, who here is picking one (or more) up, and where are you planning on ordering it through?

I pre-ordered mine through StarWarsShop.com using the $50 Gift Certificate from the March fiasco.

The total with shipping came to $17.94 ;)

I was pretty sure that my local comic shop couldn't beat that price, so I decided to pull the trigger on the SWS.com pre-order.  Now we wait until November to see if it ever gets released... and if I ever get it from them since their track record is so great.  ::)

Now IN-STOCK at Entertainment Earth!

Shouldn't be much longer for the rest of the stores to get them either...

I want the DS Droid bad, but I just have a hell of a time justifying that price for the figure.  :(

The crawler itself is to-scale with minis just abouts, so it'd be set-dressing for a table-top game, but I just don't wanna blow $40 on a figure since it's really all I want...  Oh the dilemma's.
