Holy crap...sets of 8 are going for over $170 on eBay.

 :o  Medicom Star Wars Kubrick S2 FULL SET - 8 pcs
STAR WARS KUBRICK S2 FULL SETOF8
KUBRICK S2 FULL SETOF8 CHEAP SHIP   :o

I like the way the Sandtrooper is described: SANDTROOPER (WHITE) with THE GAFFI STICK!  ;D

As per the auction, here is the ratio:
1. SANDTROOPER (ORANGE) with BLASTER RIFLE (ratio : 4/12)
2. HAN SOLO with BLASTER PISTOL (ratio : 3/12)
3. CANTINA BAND MEMBER with ACCESSORIES (ratio : 2/12)
4. OBI-WAN KENOBI with LIGHTSABER (ratio : 1/12)
5. GREEDO with BLASTER PISTOL (ratio : 1/12)
6. TUSKEN RAIDER with THE GAFFI STICK (ratio : 1/12)
7. SANDTROOPER (WHITE) with THE GAFFI STICK (ratio : 1/12) (Secret item)
8. HAN SOLO SCERET (ratio : 1/48) (Secret item)

There might be a good chance of getting the Indy figure if that is what the ratio is.

Nope, CC has not been charged thus far. They are in stock at HLJ & should be shipping shortly.

I really hope the Cantina Band Members are in the same ratio, I want to build a full Cantina Band. Although, since the figures themselves are the same, if one is a chase figure, I could just buy a couple more non chase figures and give them chase figure instruments ;)

Sorry Adam. I opened a case yesterday and got 2 of the same Cantina Figures, got no white Sandtrooper and no Indy. Looks like I'll have to open a second case.

There seems to be a bit of confusion in Japan as to which Cantina figure is the chase figure.  For lack of better words,  I got  2 with the stand thingy. The one in the bottom in this picture.



Japanese sellers are calling this the chase variant and people are buying it as that. for over $50. That is the one I got 2 of. So I think the chase has to be the top one.

Got to resolve this. Opening box 2 now. Will post results of that one soon.

2 Cantina Band Members with the stand thingy (someone please come up with a better description).  Have to say now that the top one is the chase figure and the Japanese sellers have got it wrong.

The 4 white Sandtroopers have got me beat. Someone in some factory somewhere has made a mistake in the packaging I think.

Also sounds like the packing ratios are as messed up as McFarlane and their sportspicks ::)

Man do I want that Indy Kubrick...I really wonder if they will come down from $75???  That is really way to crazy...I've been tempted to BIN $180+ sets of 9 but I just can't justify pulling the trigger

But if you do that Scott, then you'd have to go back and get the two Fett Chase figures as well!   ;)  Don't let the Dark Side of the variants seduce you!

Some pretty interesting ratios you're pulling there Simon!  Have you gotten any Indy's yet?  I'm trying to figure out the instrument situation with the Band Members...  Are there 4 different instruments with one Band Member, and 3 entirely different instruments with the other?  I think that's what it looks like from those pix...

Well, looking forward to getting them... ALL!  Soon!   8)

So what's up next after these?!  Give me some scoops/rumors/leaks, etc...   :-*
