I only got a basic set of six from a friend in Japan.
Still looking for the common chase.

Hey, any of you completest guys interested in a trade?
I'd like to get rid of my loose Droids, the first carded one Medicom made. (no Card)
Would like to get that common chase and my buddy is after the McQuarrie with the funny helmet, not sure if both are worth just the Droids though, but maybe work something out.
PM me
Damn Crackbricks!

Didn't count Young Boba, would not mind getting that one though.
Anyone know what those run?
Thanks guys.
Have to make him my last effort, going to go for the common chase if I can find him.
bc
I've seen him in the $35-45 range.

Yikes!
Not counting Jango there are 13 100% Fetts.
(there are 3 Jangos:Series 9, 2 Pack and Box set version)
The only Unique Carded Fett is the Droids version that is different than the new Series one.
The carded Bape Fett is the same as the Vintage Secret from Series 1.
The carded Bounty Hunter version is the ROTJ Secret from Series 1.
Pretty sure all the 400% are just the 3 versions of the 100% ones from Series 1.
Didn't count Young Boba, would not mind getting that one though.
Anyone know what those run?
Sorry if I just repeated everything someone else may have posted.
Kubricks are fun...if you like stuff like this.

« on: July 15, 2009, 11:06 AM »So, does anyone have all 14 Boba Fett figures yet? I don't have the J-slot but my all-gray chase is coming in about a week and I'll snap a pic of the 13 then.
I think there ar 13 total:(9 from the Boba Fett Series, 3 from Series 1 and the first carded Droids version.

« on: July 14, 2009, 09:46 PM »I got my proto costume fett chase in the mail today. That's all the Fetts I'm going after (skipping L and J slot brothers)
What is this one going for?
I may have to snag it if it isn't too much.

They are evil but I've got it under control...at least I like to tell myself that.
I stopped being a completest a long time ago though, just don't have the $$, even if it was the only thing I bought.

« on: July 14, 2009, 01:03 PM »The question about order brings up, again, the fact that 3 white Fett figures in this series was maybe one too many. I can see doing the two McQuarrie versions because the helmets are so radically different, but the B&W figure seems like a wasted opportunity to me.
They could have done the kit-bashed Fett which, while similar to the Kenner figure, is still just enough different that it would have stood out better than the B&W figure. The final concept kit-bash does have a rather different paint scheme on the helmet and gauntlets from the Kenner figure.
Still, over all, I'm happy with this set for the most part. Still wish I could have scored tht L-Slot chase, though.
E...
I like the idea of the Kit Bash, maybe a second series?
Bastards!
Looking through the McQuarrie art there is a pic where he has on a parca and some red design on his head, even that is a cool.

Kubricks / Re: Your Favorite Kub?
« on: July 14, 2009, 12:54 PM »I'm not familiar with all the lines of Kubricks but if I picked my favorite Star Wars 'Brick it would prbably be either Yak Face or Shaak Ti, I just like those two a lot. I'm also a fan of the AT-AT Driver and the new Vintage Kenner Fett. But Yak and Shaak Ti, it's a coin flip.
Overall favorite Kubrick would be either the chase version of Indiana Jones or VINCENT from the Black Hole line. I think Indy just edges out VINCENT. Old BOB from the BH line comes in a close third. Still have to thank CB for the chance at all three of those figures.
E...
Old B.O.B. is a great Kube.

Kubricks / Re: Boba Fett Collection
« on: July 14, 2009, 12:51 PM »And what do we do with the different droid's versions- Did one come sooner than the other? What about two red gauntlets? And how long will it be before we get a 1/2 circle fett from Medicom?
I just lined mine up in the order I opened them, then added the loose droids fett that had been carded, and the 2 red gauntlet fett on either end.
Just an FYI, I used a clear display case from a model car and it holds my 9 Fetts perfectly. I love how they look together, and it highlights them from the rest of the bricks.
Two way to do it:
First I'd go with Jeff's list then throw in all the previous Kubricks last(being that they would be the "Kubrick" mold of Fett 'even the Droids Carded is based on that mold'):
1. McQuarrie concept - original concept for Fett
2. McQ/Johnston Concept Fett - refined concept drawing to add the final helmet and armor
3. Black & White Prototype Fett (from a screen test shot on June 28, 1978).
4. "Color Prototype" Fett Chase (Fett first appeared at a California parade on September 24, 1978 and made mall appearances the rest of that Fall '78)
5. "Holiday Special" Fett (aired on November 17, 1978)
6. "L-Slot" Rocket Fett (1979)
7. "J-Slot Rocket Fett (1979)
8. "Vintage Toy" Rocket Fett (1979)
9. "Droids" Boba Fett (1985)
10. Jango (just for kicks)
11. Series one ESB
12. Series one ROTJ
13. Series one Vintage colors
14. Droids Carded (open him!)
OR Second:
1. McQuarrie concept - original concept for Fett
2. McQ/Johnston Concept Fett - refined concept drawing to add the final helmet and armor
3. Black & White Prototype Fett (from a screen test shot on June 28, 1978).
4. "Color Prototype" Fett Chase (Fett first appeared at a California parade on September 24, 1978 and made mall appearances the rest of that Fall '78)
5. "Holiday Special" Fett (aired on November 17, 1978)
6. "L-Slot" Rocket Fett (1979)
7. "J-Slot Rocket Fett (1979)
8. "Vintage Toy" Rocket Fett (1979)
9. Series one Vintage colors
10. Series one ESB
11. Series one ROTJ
12. "Droids" Boba Fett (1985)
13. Droids Carded (open him!)
14. Jango for Kicks
Now I want ALL the chases.

I can't wait for my set.
I love Fett and I love Kubricks.
The Holiday one looks great, that might top my list...
