Hey Beth, could you order this through MR's 800 number?  Just a thought.

Also...where on the website will this saber go up for sale?  The LE section or somewhere else?
This is the way.

You can order this through their toll free number but they don't have a ton of operators.  I assume it will sell out with 15 minutes with only a handful of orders via phone.

It will be under the LE section so make sure you log in and they recognize you as a member or you will never see it at all.

The order date is Thursday at noon Eastern Standard Time.  I'm not sure if you were talking about a midnight shift Wednesday night or if you thought the order date was Wednesday.

Good Luck!!  I won't have any internet access until next week so I hope you get one (and I hope my daughter gets mine!!)

Beth,

If I get called into work on Wednesday, I won't get home until sometime Thursday afternoon, and the saber goes on sale 10 am local time here.  I'm considering sacrificing a goat or something in hopes of not being called in on my backup day!

Good luck with the move and I hope you luck out with this saber as well.

Well, I managed to grab one.  It took me  while to order it though, about 2 minutes before it went on the site slowed to a crawl!

I have my confirmation e-mail though!   ;D

Heh, totally forgot.  Good thing Beth's daughter is on the job and I don't want one.

I'm kind of suprised it's still up on the website.  I thought it would've sold out by now.

Well, I just got my internet hooked up and I am happy to report Jill had one in her cart at noon last Thursday and checked out about 2 minutes later.  I won't tell her that it was still on the site a few hours later....she was a nervous wreck as it was ;).

Any news on when it will actually ship??

Hey Beth....glad you were able to pick one up.  Welcome back, and how did the move go?

As far as shipping, I've been hearing mid November for all of them.

I have a spot all set for it, so November is good for me.  The move went pretty smooth but the service for phone, internet etc...sucks.  This has got to be the slowest place on earth.  They already have to come back and fix my internet as I have a "bad" box.   ::)
It's a good thing there isn't another new MR item this week!!!

Glad to hear everything went relatively smoothly.  I'm still trying to work out a spot for the EE Obi-Wan saber...but I think I know what to move.

Has anyone heard if they are going to make an Asajj Ventress duel saber set??  It would be great if they made a case similar to that in the cartoons and put both sabers crossed in it. How much would you pay for that??? I think around $500 would be good. I would pick one up in a second.
Anyone got a ben for sale??

Hey everyone,

I just got an e-mail from MR with the following news:

-The Darth Vader Episode III mini-saber is now in stock

-The Yoda LE Saber will end its production run at 2,900.  New plaques are being produced for those who ordered one and if you ordered through MR you should receive it automatically.  If you ordered it through an authorized dealer, you need to send an e-mail to yodaplaques@masterreplicas.com.  Also, allow 8-10 weeks for the plaque because they are just now being produced.

- There are 48 Dual Signature Darth Vader Helmets left and the Signature Edition of the Helmet has actually been oversold!  No word on what they will do with people who put in an order after the last one was sold thoug.  I'm guessing waiting list.

-Although the EE Obi-Wan saber is sold out (took a few hours that day thanks to people only being able to order 1 saber), you can still be put on a waiting list in case you would still like one.  Call MR at 1-866-REPLIKA

-New Inventory available this month:
     Battle Damaged Maul mini-saber
     Luke Skywalker ROTJ mini-saber
     Darth Vader Episode IV mini-saber
     Darth Vader Episode III mini-saber
     Mace Windu Episode II mini-saber
     Yoda Episode III mini-saber
     Han Solo Blaster--Limited Edition
     Darth Sidious Episode III Lightsaber--Limited Edition
     Obi-Wan Kenobi Episode III Lightsaber--Limited Edition

I also got an e-mail that my battle damaged Maul mini-saber has shipped!   ;D
