Post by: DSJ™ on February 21, 2004, 03:03 PM: Not sure if you guys have seen this but the McQuarrie Stormtrooper with the Saber up seems to be fetching some large coin! :o

Post by: JediMAC on February 21, 2004, 10:06 PM: Holy crap! $100+ now?!? :o This variation has unfortunately been right at the top of my "wants" list for several months now... I had no idea it was spiraling this far out of control. :-\

Looks like I'm completely screwed here. Anyone want to give a good fella like me a hand with one of these for cheap? ;D Pretty please?! :-*

Post by: Jesse James on February 23, 2004, 10:20 AM: I wanted 2 or 3 of him, and ya know what, never saw him or the Emperor figure once. :( These figures were the only ones I needed from the end of 2003. This is disappointing that they were tough to find... Especially considering one's a FC figure. They're hosing us on availability of those poll winners methinks.

Post by: Scott on February 23, 2004, 04:41 PM: I found and bought around 3 of these for Brent and I was able to get some in a case I ordered, I believe they were all saber down versions

Looks like the saber down version is still in the $10 range its the variant freaks that are going nuts over the angle of the rod :P

Post by: JediMAC on March 24, 2004, 06:05 PM: Only been one of these that has ended recently on eBay, for $87 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3181423241&category=50263&sspagename=rvi:1:3)... :'(

Another one up here (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3183808772&category=2476&sspagename=rvi:1:3). $30, with 8 days left. :-\

Post by: Mainland05 on March 25, 2004, 12:40 AM: Still have not found any of these ever!!!!!!!!

Anyone have an extra?
Title: Re: McQuarrie Stormtrooper Saber Up
Post by: Jesse James on March 25, 2004, 01:15 AM: Damned if I wouldn't like 1 or 2 of these extra. I was lucky to get one for cost at a local collectors meeting. Otherwise, I have not seen this figure EVER. Never once in stores. His wave wasn't abundant. The Emperor shipped with him, did it not? He too flew past us with his huge hood.

The first time I found this figure, it was the saber-up version, that I of course opened.
The next and last time, it was the saber-down version, that's in my carded collection.

Post by: Playgirl on March 25, 2004, 03:55 AM: Ouch. I dont even have a normal version :-\

Post by: DSJ™ on March 25, 2004, 08:54 AM: There is no way I would pay a high price for this with the Saber up.
