Ah well crap on a stick! I wondered why the huge price difference, not good at all.  :'(

Well I just hope HLJ posts something on the site in the new year, I may have to go with them like series 10 thus far. But at those prices for a MC, it may be to far to reach like a dream to go to the moon back in the day.   :-\

These prices of Kubys are going to kill us I'm afraid.   :'(

I have said it before & I'll say it again... I miss Robby.

Yeah, once again it's very obvious how spoiled we were with Robby.  :(

I still haven't decided what to do with Series 10 and I'm not sure what I will do here...  I really, really want to buy a MC to keep the tradition alive, but I just don't know if it's worth it anymore.  I guess I have to hope for a HUGE US$ rebound in 2009 - as the dollar grows stronger, the price gets better...  but if the economy keeps tanking, a weaker dollar could add even MORE cost by the time June gets here.   :'(

I defintiely want a set of 6 of these.  I'm not sure I'd be all that interested in the Master Case (or even box of 12).  I like the concept of these but I don't want to sit on a ton of extra Fetts.

Skip the boards for a couple of days, and all Fett hits the fan! That Han's hideout site is pretty cool, first time I ran across it- sweet pics!

I wouldn't mind getting a box of 12, or splitting a MC with someone. But I also have no need for 20+ extra Fetts sitting around whining "I'm the last mandalorian!" "No, I am!"

Still kinda pricey but it looks like they ship international.

I have heard of toys-chameleon before, never delt with them tho.

Box of 12: 12,200 yen or $135. US.
MC: 48,800 yen or $538. US.

$43.31 less per 12 & $175.30 for a MC. Quit the jump down in cost with them.

They don't take CC payments thus far but do take Paypal payments plus a 5% fee. Looks like you have to pay when the item is instock & they send you a Paypal invoice.

Even with what english is on the site, I still get nowhere looking.  :-\

I was thinking about ordering from the toys-chameleon but I can't get the English order form to pop up.

I was able to submit a pre-order by hitting the pink box right under the pre-order button.

Yeah, no problem doing that. The little arrow box for the quantities, I select 4 then hit the preorder button just below that box then it take you to a page to what looks like a review of the order & to add your information but it's all Japanese. I just removed the 4 boxes by clicking "削除" next to the amount of 48800 or it holds what's in your cart.

Well, if anyone figures out how to order it and get the English form up let me know. I still get the Japanese form coming up.

Ok, me thinks I got the english order form but I cannot add 4 boxes to the order. It only brings up the 1 box which I think is what Dan is asking in his post.

As I mentioned earlier, the little arrow box for the quantities you can select 4 then hit the preorder button just below that box then it take you to a page to what looks like a review of the order & to add your information but it's all Japanese. Don't go there, if you do remove the amount of boxes by clicking "削除" next to the amount of 48800 or it holds what's in your cart.

Click the box that mentions "Please click here for order & preorder this item. You can find the international shipping cost too".

It takes you to another page "Overseas Shipping Policy". Scroll to the bottom of the page & click the "Agree" button.

It's take you to an english order page & gives you the total for the order but for only 1 box of 12. 12810 yen [Paypal Fee 5% Included].

So now this is the brick wall, how in the hell like Dan mentioned do you make the order for 4 boxes. Do you just submit the one order & in the message box ask them to change the order to a sealed MC of 4 boxes?

Well, I have a set of 12 on pre-order now too.  Thanks for the help.  At least I have a chance of getting the regular set.
