you may want to check out toyfederation they look like the have the 4-lom , ig-88 and bossk for a ok price. the boba fett is alittle pricey. The 4-lom is only 13.00 a great price and has been the only place i have seen it for sale.  Just to let you know it my get pricey trying to piece them together, I found the dengar and zuckuss to be the hardest to find.

Thanks for the tip.

Can you believe I had 4-Lom in my cart and when I was going though to pay it came up out of stock!  As well as Dengar!

I have an e-mail into them to check availability, I just found that very ironic.

I agree, $25 for Fett who had a larger distribution ratio seems very high.  I guess he's popular.

New JD member THX1138 just dropped a for sale post in our classifieds right here for a couple of Oscar's acrylic cases for the carded Kubricks.  Just thought I'd give everyone the head's up on them.  He's got two, and they're $12.50 each.

Adam, did you ever get yours?  I suppose with the new R2 out now, that more people could use two of these than just Adam now though...

THX1138 is a standup dude, I know him from the Replica Props Forums, and suggested he drop a note over here about his cases, since there are a lot of Kubrick collectors.

I'm holding off on buying another case, because I think R2's bubble may be deeper than the other two. I want to get him and try him out in one of my cases first.

I did get my cases from Dan at KennerToys.com and they are top notch. I will probably order some Animated Series cases, and Saga cases for my special figures. Nice stuff all around.

Got my response from Andy the seller.  Apparently he has already sent all the damaged sets (his word, not mine) back to Japan and requested replacements.  Not sure how likely that is.  

What it does (should?) mean is that Dale and Scott are SOL, as is g_b_u.  I just happened to get the first notification about it.   ??? :-\

Already hinted at a lower price.  No dice.  

Scott and g_b_u have received a similar email now.  Dale may or may not, as my initial email indicated I was contacting and potentially paying for both of ours, so he may get skipped in the official notification.  

Have asked for the pieces even damaged at that price.  The pics were not horrific, in most cases I could get by.  However he has indicated he has shipped them back to Japan in hopes of getting replacements for us.  That does not bode well.  But patience is a virtue.  

The worst part is I can't gloat now :-*

Hmm.  Like I said, I guess because I've mentioned your username in each email I've sent, he may be relying on me to tell you.  I'd still contact you.  But I guess you may need to send him another email.  

I did get a third email thanking me for my patience and understanding.  All of which I am, so long as my R2 eventually shows up.

Good price for a carded Luke in the U.S.  

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3178502270&category=751

The same seller had a carded Fett on for $429.99 that lasted all of about 30 minutes.  I'm actually glad someone snagged it up so fast, because I was really thinking about it.

Done and Done!  Thanks Padawan!

Well if R2 falls through, I can at least have Luke correct :-*  Dang, one Carded Fett away from Vice President!  Wait though, I sort of have an R2 does that count for anything!
