I ordered my first ever GG product today, the Darth Malak Bust. I'm a big KOTOR fan and I think it should look good displayed with Hasbro's Revan and Malak, and hopefully a whole KOTOR line.

Hopefully Dale was near a computer somewhere.

Yeah, about an hour & 10 minutes after I got the links. Just the 3 busts, Yoda/R2 & the Bust-Ups long gone. Just another thing to line up for.  :-\

Not even an e-mail from GG even being a Collector Club member. Guess that only works if you slap down $50. for the Premiere Guild.  :-\

The Bust Ups should be very easy to get at C4.  But for some strange reason they only had 100 sets of the Bust Ups 2-pack up for preorder.  Which is quite bizarre since there was no limited edition size announced for those at all.  But the Yoda & R2 maquette is going to be a little more difficult to get.

Took a gander at ebay last night and go figure, not everyone is quite so noble.  A bunch of new auctions for Revan, Gree and Yoda with people indicating they succeeded yesterday, have their confirmation from GG and only need to show up.  I also noticed Toyrocket.com has a bunch of auctions up indicating they are an attendee and a display booth, so they'll have no problem filling their quota of ebay sales ::)  I wonder if GG will adhere to their no sales to people in the display area until the last day?

I wondered this myself. Exhibitors could very easily just buy regular passes and just use those to get all the exclusives, then go back on the last day and use their Exhibitor passes to get more.

I just hope gg will let the fans get the first crack at these maquettes rather then the dealers cause no one wants to pay ebay prices for these.

The problem with America is stupidity I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself
