Hey everyone,
  I figured I had to chime in on this forum.  Im into the minis
too, and I just got and opened my Darth mini today. 

AWESOME !

  Its a little tricky to fit onto the support properly.  I think
the little 'box' on the side of the hilt has to face downward
based on the support tabs.  It looks good.   ;)

  I, too, am waiting for the 'weathered'-wan mini.  Does
anyone have an idea when they're supposed to hit?

Han shot FIRST. Luke threw TWICE. And it was THX-1138 who wasn't at his post on the big screen back in '77. And I first learned that Vader was Luke's dad in the cinemas at the Tampa Bay Mall in 1980.

FedEx.com said my Vader won't be here til next Tuesday.   >:(

As for the mini weathered, don't hold your breath.  We've all been waiting for like 3 weeks or so.

FedEx just dropped off my mini Vader saber.  Very damn cool piece.  The display kinda sucks in the fact that you have to point the emitter box down toward the base for a "perfect" fit on the display.  Oh well.  Hopefully my Sith display case will be here tomorrow (FedEx.com says it will.) 

Anyone know a good site to buy a Jedi display case cheap?  I need another one to house my CC Obi1 and weathered Obi1 (whenever I end up getting that one.)

Im in the same boat, HoloElvis.  I bought TWO of the
SITH display cases, but Ill end up putting my extra
CC-Obi, GoldenObi, and Obi-weathered in it.  But Id rather
have had a case for them with "JEDI" on it, and not "SITH". 

(In fact, if anyone wants to just TRADE my extra SITH case for your JEDI case, Ill pay for the all the shipping costs both ways...)

One more thing... when I put my SITH cases side-by-side,
I notice that the plastic cover has a 'front' and a 'back'. 
If they're on opposite as each other, then theyre not level
front and back with each other. (backside is a smidge higher
is what Im saying -- but its not noticable unless you have
another one next to it)

Vader's saber sure looks pertty. :)  I also received my mini Vader and Display case a few days ago, Man I love these mini's!  For those of us that can't afford the big boys these are a wonderful alternative.

Anyone know a good site to buy a Jedi display case cheap?  I need another one to house my CC Obi1 and weathered Obi1 (whenever I end up getting that one.)

Yeah, I also missed out on the Jedi Display case.  They are sold out everywhere.  I was very lucky to find a place that had one last one here plasmainfusion.com (Great service, btw)  It seems Epay is the only option. :(  I still need an extra one for the exclusive mini's.

FYI - there is a new ebay auction for the case plus sabers
with BIN.   I wont post the auction no, cuz I dont know the
rules about promoting auctions (and I am *not* affiliated
with whoever is running this auction, btw).

You can find it if you search for "jedi mini case"

I only mention it in case any readers are interested.

p.s.  too rich for my blood.  I already got all the jedi minis
individually.

It's up guys, but it's showing as out of stock.

With my luck, I'll miss when it goes on sale since I've been checking every God damn day!   >:(

Thanks for the heads up Jason.  I'll keep an eye on it too.  I'll probably grab 2 or 3 if I get the chance, just in case any of you guys miss out on them...

Please give us a holler if you see them pop "In Stock" ever!   :-*

No prob buddy.  Hopefully all of those here who want one can score one whenever the hell these pop up for sale.  I just want 1, I'm not greedy (only bought one CC exclusive too.)

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound greedy there, if that's what you were referring to Jason.  I just meant I'd grab a couple extras so the JD crew would hopefully be covered in case anyone missed out (since these will go FAST).  If everyone here manages to score one, I'll just pass along any extras to some other collectors at cost.

Guilty of grabbing some extra Comic Cons one too, but they were for jadesfire, jokabofe and BigDumbWookiee (and myself).   ;)

Didn't even realize that WM was selling the other ones.  Might have to pick up the Mace saber from them, which I'm still missing.  I'll probably wait to try to add it to (hopefully) the Obi-Wan saber order, to save a little on shipping.

No no no.  I wasn't saying you were greedy.  I was just saying I myself only need 1.  I'm not gonna grab extra to trade or anything.  I knew why you were grabbing extras.  Don't be so sensitive big guy.   ;)
