Yes, very nice. (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/p015.gif) (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/c020.gif) (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/c020.gif)

6,090 Yen = $56.60 US.
****! Only 1000 pieces, I'm afraid this is going to be some very big bucks! :'(
Simon, your my only hope. :-\

Eek! This thing is ******* huge! :o
280 millimeters is equal to 11.02 inches. (http://www.snowtroopers.ca/forum/YaBBImages/undecided.gif)

HOLY ****!
I was dreading the day when they would make a 400% SW Kub...
Need this one for sure!
-
Eek! This thing is ******* huge! :o 280 millimeters is equal to 11.02 inches.
My friend has the DC Direct 400% Batman, and yeah, it's about 1 foot (12") tall - huge!
This Fett is really really cool, but at $56 retail, I won't be surprised to see him fetch $200+ on the eBay market, and that's just the starting bid! :(
Probably gonna count myself out on this one and use my left-over C3 cash to chase Logray down...

Great minds do think alike. ;)
-
I have the 400% Batman and Venom, they are awesome! Bats 59.99 retail. But
Fett is gonna be so sought after, I might have excuse myself from chasing one
down also. With series 4 on the way, all my brick money is tied up at the moment!
Damn, I really want this too! Just talking about these the other day with a few other brick buddies., how cool they would be, but also how MUCH they would end up being.
-
WOW!!!!
I am not a big Kubrick collector but like getting one or two here and there....got the Fett, Sandtrooper and Han Carbonite....
If I could get my hands on this one I would buy it.
I got a contact in Japan I am going to try to get a hold of for this.
If anybody get's a line on one please let me know.
P.S. And don't worry.....I won't be selling it to Brian's Toys ;)
-
That Fett looks awesome. No way in the hell I can get it but...wow!
-
You'll all get it for a good price if you're patient, me thinks. Yes it's only 1000 peices but a clean carded possibly 1 in 150 carded Carded 21 Back Kubrick Fett was passed up on $250 today. Really I think that 1000 is a pretty big number in the Kubrick Satr Wars collecting world. I mean the Gentle Giant Maqette Padme which was available only in the US and limited to 1000 (correct me if I'm wrong) is going for just over $200 in its initial hype. It'll drop soon.
-
Ok, I gotta get a 400% Boba Kubrick, anyone able to hook me up? I've been so far removed from the picture, I dont know what's going on anymore.
I have to admit, I REALLY miss the Kubricks. Will Adam get back in on it? The world may never know.... ;)
-
I got my wish. I was hoping they would make a 400% Fett someday. The only bad thing is that it's an exclusive. If I am able to track this down it will be my 7th 400%. I need more room. :-\
-
I would really love to have this, dont have any larger Kubricks yet and this wouol dbe the perfect one to start with. I will have patience however as Simon has suggested. I really can't afford to spent too much.

Madness has started
-
Damn, that sold quick.
-
Another one up for 349 this time ::)
Damn impatient eBayers! Going to have wait this one out...
-
I just hope thats not a sign of things to come. :'(
I'm waiting this one out too. :-\
-
I am waiting too, not spending that much.
-
I haven't gotten in to the 400% Kubricks yet, this one is tempting but I need to save for Series 4 and the RAH Vader, so I'm passing
-
Oh my ******* god! :o
The 400% Boba Fett is packaged like the 12" vinty boxed version with the flap. Theres one on auction right now this a bin of $499.99.

Yes please kill me as well. Now I really want one. :-[

$500! ::) Get Real, cool looking though, I'm about 1% tempted, 99% want to stay married :P
-
I'm about 1% tempted, 99% want to stay married :P
This is the same boat I'm in... :P
I'd love to have this Fett, but at the cost of 1/3 of the year's SW budget? I'm gonna have to pass. :'(
Maybe I'll pick it up in 2015 or so...

Have to pass for now too.
Me and Fett would be out the door for sure :D
-
There are two at $268 and $269 right now...I don't collect any of these 400% and 1000%, what's the going rate?
-

I'm holding out for a price of less than $200. As for the going rate of bigger Kubrick's it totally depends on the specific item. I've gotten a 400% for as low as $40, but this Fett is an exception being Star Wars related and being limited to only 1000 pieces. Everyone be patient with this one, and hopefully the price will come down considerably in the coming days.
-
The average price right now is $268 to $300 plus then add that shipping on which is going to be higher than the previous Kubricks from Japan.
Hopefully this will come down in cost, $200. or less would be super.

Yeah, I am actually going to have alot of patience with this one. Unless I can get it at an amazing price, I will be passing.
-
Anyone go wild and pick up the 400% Boba Fett yet?
-
The tooling for new stands could pricey, keep us posted Scott.
As for the 400% Boba, I have not jumped on getting one thus far. Not sure how long to hold out for. I still want to get one, like everyone one else for a good price.
-
The Boba 400% are still very high. Still it has only been a few days since it was released. I still think they'll drop below $200 some time soon and as low as $150 given time, but I could be wrong. There are alot of 400% collectors, not to mention the avid Star Wars Collectors, out there so that might keep prices up.
I really don't think that they will go higher than now, so at least that is an incentive to hold off. And there are alot of the usually Hong Kong / Japanese re-sellers who have picked quite a few of them off Yahoo Japan, so they are going to flood the market in the next couple of days and should have plenty to go arond for every one.
As for me, I have bought one for myself. This will be my third 400% Kub to so along with the Spiderman and Evangelion ones. FYI the Spiderman, which was also limited to 1000 (I believe), doesn't go for much over $90 these days on eBay.
-
Hey you got one Simon, sweet. Congrats. 8)
I'm still on the waiting plan. :-\
-
Dale is waiting :o :P
-
Yep. (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/waiting.gif) :P :-*
-
i wonder if there're any that could have came out from the 'backdoor' of the factories..
i'm sure the factories produced more than a 1000 of them..
what do they do with the extras? burn them?
-
I am on the waiting plan as well. :-\
-
I see more 400% Boba's have shown up on eBay but there still over $300. so back to (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/waiting.gif)
-
(http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/waiting.gif)
I hear that, it really sucks. To be honest i am surprised i have held out but i am sticking to my guns this time and wont cave. I really think the prices will come down.
It does look awesome in the vintage style box though. :-[
Since Padawan brought up series 4, i must say i cannot wait for this series to come out. ;D
-
Still on the (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/waiting.gif) list.
-
Thought this might be an interesting comparision for those who haven't seen any of the 400% Kubs. I guess this is the Medicom Boba Fett collection.
(http://www.ne.jp/asahi/getnood/now/Graphics/jpeg/Kubrick/Star-Wars/bobacoll.jpg)
-
Holy ****! You really don't know how large the 400% is untill you see it with all the other Kuby's. What a great picture, Thanks for posting it Simon. :)
Now I really want that 400% Boba even more. ;D
-
Wow is that an impressive piece. I really hope this comes down to an affordable price because I would like to buy one methinks
-
Man, that's a sweet picture (and Fett collection) there Simon! Definitely helps illustrate the size of the 400% piece. Very nice.
And belated congrats to Jeff for finally nabbing the Logray. I've been laying off the Logray and VC Jawa search for ages, so I really need to get my ass in gear on those two before I fall too far behind with the Series 4 release.
That Be@rbrick Wicket is calling my name for some reason :P
No doubt, you friggin' princess. It'll go nice with your Barbies though... :-*

You haven't ended the auction yet! ::)
-
Damn Simon, that pic is awesome. I want that Boba Fett even more now. Damn prices are still too high. I will try and wait.
-
Damn Im kicking myself for selling these... If I ever get the money, Im definitely going back and getting them again.
These are the only items I truly regret ever selling... well, those and my gold Yoda cans
-
That 400% Boba Fett sure is a bastard. Still on (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/waiting.gif) list. :'(
-
I am still trying to get a 400% Boba at a reasonable price, but they just do not seem to be dropping. :-[

Today is a good day as this just arrived a short time ago. (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/froehlich/a049.gif)
Sorry for the crap pictures but theres a storm brewing outside and the sun is sorta going bye...bye. :-\

Let me tell you something about this Kuby... it's ******* huge! :o The box is not tape shut so you can remove the Kuby, thats a great plus. I can see why it cost big bucks to send here, the box without the flap measures 14" x 7" 6 1/2". With the flap it's 14".
It's big and it's heavy and it's so... so... gorgeous! (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/froehlich/a052.gif)

Congratulations Dale. ;D
He looks great. :o
-
Congrats Dale!
So, when are you going to open him? :P
-
Holy ****, that's sweet Dale! Nice pick-up there. 8) How painful to the wallet?
Is anyone out there truly "hardcore" about completism in this line?
I haven't heard of anyone keeping their individual figure boxes sealed. I also don't think I've even seen anyone doing the carded/boxed AND loose too either.
And don't forget, that Black pauldroned (carded) Sandtrooper is technically a different figure too... :'(

If the prices come down some, I have to get me one of them.
I have all my spare $$$$ tied up with series 4 kubs and RAH Vader.
Congrats!

heard that medicom might mass produce the 400% boba without the bounty hunter logo on the box..
is it true?
-

Nope, never heard of this, then again it's Medicom so anything can happen.
If they do, then I'll have a nice set of bookends! ;) ;D
-
Well i guess if they did that would solve my problem. It would prob ably have amore reasonable price. Still i will not be holding my breath.
-
Sounds like it's not the 400% Boba that was to be mass produced, just the new vinyl Fett that came ouit at the WCC20 from what I have read.
-
I have a request. I just found out my 400% Fett still hasn't been sent from Asia (after 10 days waiting) and I need a hi res scan of the front pic ASAP. Can anyone send me a hi res (600 DPI) scan of the front pic (front view of Fett with the fireball thing and words inside.) It'll be worth a couple free cards and bubbles to you (see link below). Let me know. Thanks! Tony

-
I am unable to scan mine as my scanner will not work because it is incompatible with my Windows XP. Sorry.
-
Tony, this is Dale's pic from way back on page 27. I'm assuming it's not high enough resolution though? :-\

Also, Medicom updates its site this weekend. Someone had a pic of a VCD
Stormie to go along with the Fetts and Vader.
-
That sucks about the 400% Fett. Does anyone know if it's a Bounty Hunter exclusive or will this one be available as a normal Kub? I'm going to check Robby.jp.

I believe its a Medicom Collectors Club Exclusive. It has an order date of 8/21 at 11:00am to 8/22 11:59pm. Limited to 2005
-
Yeah, Medicom updated there site today.
(http://www.medicomtoy.co.jp/nl/l/bigp/lp20.jpg)
At least with 2500 made it should not be too hard to get and hopefully a little cheaper. :-\
-
I'm going to check Robby.jp.
I just received my "update" e-mail from Robby.jp a couple of days ago and there was no mention of this, but maybe it'll be added soon...
edit... after thinking... can Robby.jp get something in that is a Medicom Collector's Club exclusive? I'm guessing not. Now I need to find out how to become a member. ;)

The reason RoBBy.jp didn't mention this is because Medicom updated there site today, hopefully they will list it. :-\

Damn.
Actually, I'm not sure I'm willing to spend the money on this yet anyway. I think I'm feeling a little gunshy after all the money I've blown on ROTS and the new Kubricks the last couple months. :-\

Ok, so 500 of the ESB 400% Boba Fetts will be sold at a toy show of some kind on August 21-22 (I'm having a hell of a time deciphering that), then the remaining 1505 will be sold to Collector Club members. These last 1505 pieces are planned to ship October 2005.
6090 Yen or $55 US or $67 CDN - seems like a pretty decent price. Do I dare ask what the "vintage" version was going for?
-
So it looks like 500 will be available at Wonder Festival [Summer] and the remaining 1505 to the Club? First come first serve..?

Me thinks you're right. ;)

Yep, there's a Wonder Festival coming up on August 21st at the Tokyo International Exhibition Center "Tokyo Big Site" (http://216.239.39.104/translate_c?hl=en&u=http://www.bigsight.jp/english/index.html&prev=/search%3Fq%3DWonder%2BFestival%2Bjapan%2B2005%2Bsummer%26start%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN)
WONDER FESTIVAL 2005 (http://rd.search.goo.ne.jp/click?DEST=http://www.kaiyodo.co.jp/wf/&no=13)
So yeah, 500 at the Festival and the other 1505 online would be right.
-
God, no more Fetts please Mr. Medicom, Sir. But unfortunately I guess there is one or 2 more variations to go after this.

i'm sure stormie will be produced. :)
vader, luke, han.. all of them! ;)
-
I can see Medicom coming out with more 400% SW Kuby's, with them being a nod to the 12" vinty line with the flap box, this is going to run a few more $$$ trying to get them. :-\
Kenner came out with 12 large figures back in the days.
R2-D2, Obi-Wan, Boba Fett, Chewy, Darth Vader, Han, IG-88, Jawa, Luke, Leia, 3PO and Stormtrooper.

In case anyone is interested...
Kubricks/Be@rbricks 400% Bounty Hunter Boba Fett IN STOCK! (http://www.toytokyo.com/shopping/index.php/page/product/product_id/5349)
In-stock at ToyTokyo for $250.00 plus shipping!
Not too bad a price and it's already in the USA so shipping shouldn't be too bad. I really considered it, but I just don't have an extra $300 to drop right now. :(
Damn, i dont have the money right now. I would love to get it.
I dont want any vehicles, but i do want beasts, Wampa, Taun Taun, Jabba, all of them!!!!!
-
I pulled the trigger, shipping was only $8.79 for a grand total of $258.79 shipped. I called Toy Tokyo as I thought there was a 10% coupon, no luck.
The individual in the internet department advised me that there are no coupons and he would have to check and see if there are any more of the 300% Fetts in as Toy Tokyo only got a few :o. That being the case, I guess it's a bit of a gamble if my order will be filled. We shall see.
Peace,
DBK

"Sorry for being out of the loop, but 500 of the 1505 of what?"
Thats the ESB boba I think. Im lucky enough to be going to the wonder festival, and if I get there early enough I'll be picking myself up one. sounds like it may be only one per customer though, so cant take orders.
OK, so is that carded?
Welcome to JD, by the way.

Hey Mono. Another Japanese based collector? Cool. Welcome. Make sure you get there 3am. I will never go to a Japanese Toy Show as long as I live. As some of you may recall, I ended up watching a procession of professional toy-show-goers walk out with 500 Medicom Vinyl Fetts before I had even advanced 1 step in the line. I heard it's not that much difference at any mjaor toy show in the world though.
Ain't that the truth. C3 was marginally better. Those of us with press passes had a relatively easy time. Those without often had no luck. Dale got in line one night at around 2 am and had some success (may have been in line multiple nights) and Jason (HoloElvis) did the same to have some success with the C3 Vader. But way, waaaaaaaaaaaaay more people left that show frustrated than happy.

and I was thinking of getting there with maybe an hour or so to spare... :-[
thought with 500 available I might have had a chance! hmm, busy the night before too so maybe I'll be ebaying with the rest of you.
-
Well hopefully we should see a few of the 400% ESB versions of Boba Fett showing up on eBay. Should be interesting to see the price. Only 500 available at the Wonder Festival.
Good luck Mondo, have fun. :)

Sweet.
Are the helmets actually a different shade of green? Or is that just due to the lighting?
-

Different shade of green on the helmet and around the neck. Chest and crotch plates are the same (dark) as with an area that is painted on the collarbone to the backside. Also, both the capes are a different color, the BH version is painted a darker green than the helmet and the ESB version is more like a dark olive green.

I`ll take the one on the left, thanks! ;D

What's up with this auction? Where is the flap on the box? Is it bent around? If so I don't think the box is in "MINT condition. (C8.5+)".

Looks like the box flap is closed maybe?
The rest of the box seems to have cellophane around it, but the flap part
doesn`t?
I`ve not seen one in person (YET!), so I`m not sure how these were put out.

Yep, the flap is there and bent right over the front of the box.
(http://i14.ebayimg.com/02/i/04/e9/8f/fb_1_b.JPG)
It sure looks like there is no cellophane on the flap, something must be holding it down as I would think the flap would lift a bit like that. Maybe just the lighting and we can't see the cellophane on the flap.

It is so frustrating to know that these two guys are retailing for like $75 and it's going to cost 3 times that to get them on eBay... :'(
-
Damn! Those look amazing!
I love the smug smile on Han's face. 8)
It's cool stuff like this that make me want to divert my collecting funds away from Hasbro.

NICE~~~ :o
I would love to get them, but I can`t get into the 400% figures right now :(

Are they exclusives?
If not, I`m firing off an email to RoBby!
-

It appears that yes, they are exclusive to Blister.jp (limited to 2000 each).

Dale's screwed. :P
BTW, I had a totally bizarre dream last night that I was in some store, and they had a wall of pegs stocked full of various carded Star Wars Kubricks - old, new, all kinds of stuff! It was really weird. I was so confused as to what to buy, and what I already had.
Even more weird is that Dale was there. Yep. My first official dream with Dale in it. But he was just looking at all the carded Kubricks with me. That's all. :-X
-

Blister.jp is a regular on-line e-tailer/toy shop in Japan, but does NOT appear like they ship to the USA/Canada though.
I sent them an e-mail earlier today and the answer was pretty much "no". :-\

Ah, I see. :'(

here's a translator.. hope it helps..
-
We are all screwed from getting these. I think they do this on purpose so they can charge us more on Ebay. Conspiracy I tell you!!!
-
anyone sure that this is the only version coming out??
will they do the same thing like they did the fett? first bxh fett then a variant medicom fett..
btw, are there any upcoming toy shows in japan?maybe another show exclusive.. a smiling luke instead..
-
Hard to say what Medicom will do, if there going to come out with these 400% figures based on chase figures and making them exclusives then we're really going to be screwed.
Imagine a 400% Indy! :o
Logray or Sickness Han, Vinyl Jawa, Vader w/ Luke's face or even a Sandtrooper. :-\
-
I kinda like the idea though. Not the cost. A 400% Indy would so rock.
-
Indy......Indy...... ah forget it! :-\
I agree Brent, a 400% Indy would be awesome. 8)
-
logray? yucks..
i dun mind a jawa vinyl cape.. :)
-
300% yoda?
-
I haven't check in for awhile, but that was a nice surprise to see 400% Luke and Han Stormies. Cool. I can't wait. Blister is the same wholesaler that does all the Attackus Japan exclusives. I really don't think that these will end up being that expensive if you wait. Brent is a testament to that. If you have to have em straight away then yeah they'll be expensive.
I also noticed that a carded Sandtrooper and Vader ending on $200. The carded SW Kubs are slipping in value slowly but surely.

I saw those also, same guy was bidding on both.
I saw a 400% Fett with a BIN of 140 the other day. Had to pass though, no
funds right now. The 40$ shipping is a killer too. Does it really cost that much
to ship from Japan/Singapore/Hong Kong ?
-
maybe there's hope afterall for the luke/han 400%..
my local store told me their japanese wholesaler is taking pre-orders for the pair..
and without shipping in it, its less than 7200 yen each..
mm.. maybe HLJ might offer too?
as for SW5, i hope its released soon.. the kubrick scene has been quite boring lately..
-
well we are already getting reemed. The 400% are up on Ebay for $130 plus $25 shipping. We all knew it would happen though. Oh well.

Preorder this item by Nov. 9 to get it for 5% off the regular price of 7,619 yen!
400% Kubrick Stormtrooper: Luke Skywalker (http://www.hlj.com/product/BLDX-01)
400% Kubrick Stormtrooper: Han Soro (http://www.hlj.com/product/BLDX-02)
I sure would like to know who the hell Han Soro is! ;D
This is it gang, looks like the only ticket to get it here in North America thus far. Place those orders and the best of luck with ya. ;)
-
Thanks!!! Just got mine.

-
Right on! 8)
I just hope HLJ has enough ordered to fill the orders, only 1 week to get in on the special.
I really wonder what they will be displayed in, will it be in boxes like the Boba Fetts or other. ???
-
I hope they come without those flaps that the Fett's came with. They are damn annoying space munchers. Were there any Vintage Luke and Han Stormies?
-
Han Stormtrooper was never made in the vinty line, only Luke was done as part of the POTF series.

Holy ******* ****! HLJ has the 400% Luke and Han Stormtroopers listed for pre-order! :o :o
Well... I pulled the trigger! I figure this is the universe's way of telling me to grab these two - if HLJ fills my order, I am meant to have them. If not, well then I guess it wasn't meant to be.
$130 plus shipping for these two guys is just too great a price to pass up. Hell, that's cheaper than some of the regular chase figures! :o ;D
-
I jumped also just now. Thanks for the link Dale 8)
-
Dammit Dale. I hate you and love you all at the same time. >:(
I pulled the trigger too. There goes my budget for the month. ;)
I noticed this logo (http://www.hlj.com/images/bld/bldlogo.gif) at the top of the page, which would explain why HLJ has the Blister exclusives.
-
I have never ordered from HLJ before, I fiished my order and I wanted to pay with paypal, but they never prompted me too. It just said order was recieved. Do you pay later??
-
You will be billed when the they fill the orders, mine payment is done by CC so they just charge it.
BTW Jesse, HLJ does not like hotlinking. :P

Yeah, I noticed. ;) I had to change the logo pic to a link.

And me with no $$$$ ! Damn!
Thats ok, cause if I got these two, I`d need a Fett and whatever other 400%
they come out with.

Yeah, this is a VERY dangerous path...
I've already decided that I will only collect "Guys in Stormtrooper Armor" 400% pieces.
That should take care of that - I'll have a "complete" collection! :D

:D
-
I dunno, a 400% Fett wouldn't be all bad :P I'd be all over that 400% Indy though ;)

Yeah, I noticed. ;) I had to change the logo pic to a link.
For me at work, the link is coming up as image stolen. :-\
Me thinks ya better save that logo your trying to show and rehost it. ;)

I dont know what to do, if i order these then i really NEED to get the Boba Fett then.

Must be the stupid government PC I have at work, the logo does not show up there but at home I had no problem. :-[
I really didn't see it as I was too busy getting the news out HLJ will have them. ;D

Hard to say what you want to do evenflow, Boba may come down in price which would be affordable to the penny pinchers. Do you need both Boba's or just the one? Dig deep down inside and follow your crack addicting collecting heart. ;)
What a year we have had with SW Kuby's and were not even done with the releases yet. :o

-
seems like lots of u pre-ordered..
hopefully ALL of u get them.. or else there will be WAR... ;)

I never thought about it when I ordered one of these, but what do you think shipping will be to the US for the 400% Han and Luke?

Well, to ship one EMS is close to $40 bucks according to most overseas sellers.

I never thought about it when I ordered one of these, but what do you think shipping will be to the US for the 400% Han and Luke?
I know Dale (DSJ) has received items from HLJ before, including cases of kubricks, so he may have a pretty good idea.
Well, to ship one EMS is close to $40 bucks according to most overseas sellers.
Ouch. I knew it would be pricey, but that hurts.
I noticed HLJ listed shipping option for EMS and SAL. Do you guys know how long each takes to ship an item?

I don't think it matters as the stuff will most likely go EMS. Once you get to a certain yen/dollar amount, they automatically give you EMS shipping.
The two 400% together will run 14,476 Yen and according to HLJ:
"some requests for SAL shipping may be shipped by EMS instead if the item is too large to go by SAL small packet, or if there are many items in the order and/or the order is particularly valuable (above 15,000 yen). "
So, since these are kinda big AND the Yen total is pretty close to 15k, I'm guessing they will ship them EMS anyway. :-\
-
I selected SAL but it will ship EMS do to the size, shipping will cost but you won't find out till they ship.
SAL will take some time to arrive but EMS to me has taken anywhere fro 1-2 weeks but it sits do to customs clearance.
Shipping on the 400% Boba Fett is around $35-$40. EMS and I have received mine within the week.
All depends what the Luke and Han come in like box with that big assed flap like Boba.
I have no worries with HLJ, I have delt with them many times and I always look forward to more dealings. :)
-
Thanks for the info guys, I wasn't sure how exactly Japan's postal system worked (besides EMS being faster than SAL).
Of course, even with the high price of shipping, it'll probably still be cheaper than waiting to grab them on eBay. :)
-
Just remember you get nailed with customs Jesse, hopefully they will mark just the one Kuby than both. They did that with my last Master Case, 4 boxes of 12 and only marked the value for one box. ;D
-
If it is $35 I am going to cancel my order. I can't pay close to $100 for the Han. Just ain't happenin'
-
just curious though, I got an email from HJL and they said I should recieve an order confirmation email by the 3rd, and it still isn't here. did you guys get yours.
-
I was just looking at some of my past orders from Japan to give you guys a base price.
From HLJ:
1 Master Case Series 5: Shipped EMS, 5400 yen = $45. US.
1 box Konami Thunderbirds: Shipped SAL, 1480 yen = $12.60. US
1 Captain Scarlet book: Shipped SAL, 1080 yen = $9.20. US.
Other:
1 400% Boba Fett: Shipped EMS, 4700 yen = $40. US.
40 Kubrick Display Cases: Shippied EMS, 6100 yen = $56. US. (very heavy box).
With EMS, you get a tracking number and most of my stuff arrived via courier (Purolator) and sometimes Canada Post. SAL was delivered via Canada Post.
All those prices were bang on.
As for the confirmation email from HLJ, nothing thus far. If you have not received it then you should contact the e-mail addy given in the "Order Acknowledgment" that was sent out when you placed the order very soon.
I just forwarded there e-mail to them and am now waiting for a reply. :)
-
Yikes! Maybe I sent that e-mail to soon. ;D
I just received an e-mail from HLJ:
Thank you very much for placing an order with HobbyLink Japan. This message is to confirm that we have received the following order and are now processing it.
They have the shipping method listed as SALSP so I am guessing that is "Surface, Land, Air, Small Parcel".
So for myself, it looks good to me. Hopefully everyone that placed there orders receives there confirmation soon. :)
-
Ya, I just got my confirmation too. It looks like EMS is really expensive, if they ship it the other way, maybe I will still get it. It looks to be alot cheaper on SAL. Lets hope.
-
I hope so too, it may all depend on what these Kuby's are packed in. We have no idea what to expect till there released. If there in the box style like the 400% Boba then I know the shipping cost will be up but if there just say in a plain old clear baggie then that make differ. :-\
I just received another e-mail from HLJ as to my inquiry on not receiving a confirmation before I got one:
Thank you for writing, and for your order. We apologize for the delay in
its confirmation; we were closed on November 3 for Japan's Culture Day
national holiday, but neglected to change the echo confirmation message
to let you know that your order would be confirmed on November 4. Your
order has been confirmed now, and the order confirmation e-mail with your
Customer ID were e-mailed to this address earlier today.
I will say that is a very fast response from HLJ and I'm very impressed with there customer service. Not like StarWarsShop.com :-X
-
Confirmatino/processing email achieved. :)

Here's to hoping that they can fill all these orders!

From HLJ:
1 Captain Scarlet book: Shipped SAL, 1080 yen = $9.20. US.
Just to keep you guys informed with HLJ, I received my Captain Scarlet book today. Shipped on Oct 25, 2005 by SAL (small packet). Arrived in tip top shape and very fast for SAL IMO and the shipping cost was bag on.
No worries with HLJ, they great! 8)

Hey everybody,
Just thought I'd let you know I talked to Ryo at Robby.jp and they're taking orders for the Luke and Han 400% Stormtroopers. Only $55 ea., or something like that. Great deal. Limited one each per customer and no guarantees if they'll even get them. May want to check it out.
Tony
:o
-
Is there an item number for them? They are not showing up on his site. :-\
-
If I were you I would e-mail him personally. He always responds when you do that. I just told him I wanted them and he e-mailed the whole order. He's a really nice guy.
-
I tihnk I will stick with HLJ.com for now...
I don't want a duplicate order and I'd hate to miss out on then at HLJ by trying to save $20 by going with Robby.jp :-\
-

I emailed RoBby the other day, but my email bounced back. Trying again today.
For 55 each, I`ll get them if I can, if not, thats ok. Cause I KNOW if I get these,
I must get a Fett!
-
if not, thats ok. Cause I KNOW if I get these,

Thats the way I am looking at these. Stick clear, or I'll be spending lots more $ because I am such a freakin completionist.
-
Well.... I`m on the list at RoBby. If they get them, great, if not, thats ok too.
Ryo said RAH Stormies should be end of the month, along with series 5 kubs.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ :-X
-
Interesting, my friend in Japan that ordered them through blister.jp has suggested first week in December. Not much of a difference, but still a week or so. I'm hoping Series 5 comes out before the end of November. Different Visa bills a month apart :P

Ordered what? The RAH Stormies, series 5 kubs or the 400% Han and Luke?
Han & Luke I think are December.

Oh sure, point out my lack of reading comprehension :-[ Yeah, I meant the 400% Kubricks and brainfarted on the RAH instead.

Ummmm.... ;D My bad, carry on...
I gotta make kub money somehow!
A little more on topic, I saw lots of fixed price auctions listed
recently for all kinds of kubs. eBay had a 10 cent listing day or somesuch,
so anyone who hasn`t checked in awhile, it might be a good time.
-
Hey guys. I haven't gotten into the 400% figures yet, but I was wondering if anyone could give me reasonable price ranges on them.
-
Well, ballparking (and I'm not the best source)....
Han/Luke seem to currently have a set ebay price of $129.99 based on the BINs that are out there. Retail is considerably lower though, I think $60-70 or so.
This 12" Fett is about the normal price, ending in the $180 range with a BIN (http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Wars-figure-darth-vader-400-BOBA-FETT-Kubrick_W0QQitemZ6012387792QQcategoryZ1345QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) though there was a recent BIN for 140 and I think an auction or two that ended in the $150-160 range.
The other 12" Fett seems to be around the $250 mark quite regularly (http://cgi.ebay.com/RARE-Medicom-Star-wars-BXH-10th-BOBA-FETT-400-KUBRICK_W0QQitemZ6011008860QQcategoryZ48972QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).
There's huge variability with the 400% Fett's though, the flamethrower version just had a BIN that ended the other day for $250. Methinks some folks don't pay enough attention.
Should add that realistic shipping on these from Asia is somewhere around $30-40.
-
Well HLJ has the Luke Stormtrooper (http://www.hlj.com/product/BLDX-01) for $65. and Han (http://www.hlj.com/product/BLDX-02) but the pre-order is over but you can still place an order.
As for the Boba Fett's, the Bounty Hunter verson (red/yellow gauntlets) around $175.-$200. and the ESB version around $150.-$190. Depends on the postings on eBay. ;)
Oh and most of what Brent mentioned when I was typing this up! :P
-
Thanks you guys.
-
Did anyone else get the thought that these are actually supposed to be 3 Kubricks in 1? Maybe they won't just do a 400% Stormtrooper.

I thought about that too. I wish we knew for sure! Hate to buy an extra Luke/Han
to pose with the helmet on, if they are going to release a regular one.
-
Stop that Simon >:(
-
Doh! :-\
-
Anybody heard anything about the Han and Luke??
I am sick of waiting already!!!!

Sometime this month, that's all I know. Patience. ;)

Time for a round of speculation!
OK, I was reading the latest Hyperspace article on the Official Site. It's an article about Darren Phillipson, Director of Global Product Development at Lucas Licensing.
Anyway, he's got a bookshelf, and on the book shelf is a TON of toys... wanna guess what's on the top of the bookshelf? 400% Kubricks!
There are Stormie Luke and Stormie Han and Fett and what looks like MORE?
Here are the photos:
http://www.starwars.com/hyperspace/member/banthaonline/f20051206/img/p2_1_bg.jpg
http://www.starwars.com/hyperspace/member/banthaonline/f20051206/img/p2_2_bg.jpg
I've included the crops of the pics below!
Just look and you'll see what I think are (from L to R)
the vinyl fett, vinyl Stormtrooper, 400% Kubrick?, 400% Stormie Twins
Then, on the far end (from R to L):
400% Fett and 400% Stormtrooper?!?
Is it just me or do you guys see more 400% Kubricks in that photo too! I suppose it could be from a different line, but I don't know... :-\
-
Hard to tell from that photo. Does look like a stomie down near Fett, but
could be a Han or Luke with Helmet on.
Not sure what 400% that is before the Han & Luke. It sure looks like a
400% kub though. Maybe Bespin Luke or something ;)
-
It's probably a bloody Ewok, which is a good thing, because I won't be wasting my money on that.
-

I would HOPE they wouldn`t do an Ewok, but I guess they could just us parts
from Bearbricks and make one. I`d take a big `ol pass on that too!
-
Good that means that if everyone passes on this one, I might actually get to own one at a decent price, even if it is a freakin ewok!!!!!!
-
Those are awesome. What do they run?
-
Interesting picture, I enlarged it a tad to get a better looky.
(http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/Kubricks/Figures%20400.jpg)
The Kuby next to Boba looks like a Stormtrooper to me, I'm gong by the black marks on the mouth piece, where the arm connects to the body and the black mark around the hand.
As for this other mystery Kuby, sure looks like an Ewok, there are 400% Be@rbrick's so they can use that mold.
Just pray that they don't start making 1000% SW Kuby's or you'll be broke! :-\
-
I can smell those rotten little *******. >:(
-

It's definitely a Be@rbrick . . . the belly is a dead giveaway. It could be a 400% of the Wicket chase Be@rbrick. Alternatively it could be a prototype of the Kaws wooden Be@rbrick (these were finally manufactured in Japanese redwood but this could have been a more neutral coloured wood).
Now the tooling is done for the 400% Han/Luke Stormtroopers a 400% Sandtrooper wouldn't be too much of a stretch 8)

The first to figures are the VCD Stormie and Fett.
The last 2 are 400% kubricks for sure. I still think it may just be a han/luke with helmet on
displayed like a stormie
-
If anyone has a 400% Fett they want to offload for around $100 bucks let me know. I'm game!
-
I could be wrong but... check out the bobba to the far right. looks alot like the 2nd chase toy. two red forearms, bluey hands, could it be the 3rd 400% boba?
-
just my 2 cents, but a alot of that stuff was probably proto-types at the time he got them. You know, kinda checking them out before production. Medicom might have made all 3 and just decided to make the ones we got.

Hi all,
Long time lurker here, saying thanks to everyone who has contributed to this board and the main Attack of the Kubricks forum.
Thought I would share some goodness - here is an e-mail I received from Blister Direct on the 400% kubricks:
Thank you for contacting to Blister.
We have not found out the certain sales date. They are supposed to be arriving in Tokyo on the 20th so the earliest day the store have them will be the 22nd/23rd.
You can contact to the store directly around the date to find out. 03-6415-3106
Hope it helps those who have been on the look-out for the release date for these.
-
Right on!! thats the first news we have heard in a while!
And welcome!!
-
Welcome, kubrickfan, glad to have you on board!
I pre-ordered my Han & Luke Stormtroopers through HLJ.com, and they listed them available as of December 31. So your news is encouraging that we may see them even sooner. 8)
-
they are coming!!!!!!!
just got an email from Blister... They are posting thm out within(or in-not sure) 3 days!

Looks like I`ll have to be passing on these if what Tan said at KW is true (and
it most likely is I would think).

wat i heard is the wholesalers' orders arent cancelled... but rather cut.. min 50% orders..

The gang over at Hyperspace Japan have received their 400% Kubys and have posted some great pictures...

I must admit that I'm a little disappointed that these don't appear to have window boxes like Fett. :(

Also of note, like other speculated, both of the figures can wear their Stormie Helmet:

i havn't recieved anything from HLJ at all in the last month. i am starting to wonder if i will get one.

i am glad they didn't stick them in a case like fett. this way it might be cheaper. on the other hand it definitely won't be a sealed display, you'll have to open it.

Ok, doorbell just rang. WTF? 9:25 Xmas morning? No one is supposed to come
over till around noon! Throw some pants on and answer the door...
ITS THE POST OFFICE!
Han & Luke have arrived!
Pics soon ;D
The guy said they had a few boxes to deliver today, Express Mail and other
special delivery type stuff. I asked if he wanted some candy or something but
he declined and was on his merry way.
On the box, where it says:
4X Kubrick Stormtrooper XXX blister Direct Exclusive XX... blah blah blah.
They are stickers. The box is very "general" other than that, so maybe this
means more 400% are coming, they could just put different stickers on for
different items... Hmmmm... ponder ponder ponder...
Ok, going to open now and take pics!

Yeah I got mine yesterday too. Sweet aren't they Adam? But I wish they were able to hold the helmets in their hands. I've got mine kind of wedged between the arm and the body.
Who wants to bet money that Vader will be the next 400% figure.
-
Who wants to bet money that Vader will be the next 400% figure.
Hmm, Vader eh? Gee, I guess I'll need two each of Han/Luke. Two so I can display one each with helmets off and then another pair with helmets on to Flank Vader. 8)

Dammit, Brent. >:( Now I'll have to do the same thing (that's exactly why I ordered 2 RAH Stormies so they could flank the RAH Vader - having that display next to 400% Stormies and Vader would be awesome).
-
Yeah, that's what I do with most of my Vaders, so it's sort of a natural here. An expensive natural though ;)
-
Yeah, now that I think about it, the only GG Busts I have are a Vader and 2 Stormies flanking him. It does seem to be a bad habit. ;)
-
I wouldn`t go buying 2 of each just yet, I think they will make a 400% Stormie
too. Figure most of the work is done already, right?
Maybe a WCC exclusive or something.
How about a JediDefender.com exclusive?? ;D Someone get Medicom on the
horn! Get this ball rolling now!

-
Nope, 5 pack box please.
Emperor
Royal Guard (red x2)
Royal Guard (blue x2)
-
A 400% IG-88 would look cool done in the vinty style box. ;)
-
I wonder how far they will push this 400% line. I mean they look great and they are chunky, but not too chunky. And I feel like I get bang for my buck. I mean like the 400% Red/Yellow Fett goes for almost the same $$ as the 100% one. Keep 'em coming Medicom.
-
I just checked HLJ and the 400% figures are not listed but they still show up in my "Items on Order" but are listed as a "Future Release" and are showing up as "Discontinued". Guess we shall just have to wait and see what happens next week when the crew from HLJ come back from there holiday break on Jan 4th. :-\

Hopefully the next few days will tell with an e-mail from HLJ if they have these buggers. :-\

I just checked, same message for me. No charge as yet on my CC.

Finally got through on HLJ site, bloody maintenance. ::)
I have the same thing Scott, I have had that before with past orders. The links to the items are now solid, looks good to me thus far. ;)

That's a great looking picture with the Luke Stormie 100% and 400% figures side by side. But now that makes me want to track down those chase Luke & Han Stormies... :-\ (so far I'd convinced myself I didn't need them).

This is supposed to be shock or surprise in some way?

And here I was hoping for something in-depth and thought provoking for my 5000th post. Ah well. :-*

::)
-
You know, looking at those pictures, it just hit me that the 400% Stormtrooper Luke is different from his 100% buddy. They have two totally different hairstyles... wonder why they did that?
Strange that I never noticed that until now... ???

400% Han & Luke $120.00 each

Why are the 400% Kubricks so dang expensive? I don't see why they can't make them $60-$70, but I'm not Medicom. I don't know if it's because of licensing costs or they just know Kubrick fans will pay that.

Probably because they make so many less of them compared to the regular kubs.
And, they are 60-70 bucks if you live in Japan ;)
Blister.jp and HLJ had them for about 70$ plus shipping. To get them shipped here is
a big part of the cost too.

I didn't order my 400% Han from them but I did order a case of series 3 Saturday that will be here today. So they seem reliable on the quickness of processing and shipping...

Now that we got these, anyone else thinking about picking up one of the Fetts?

Nope, I'm fine Thank You. :)

Please continue! :-*

The problem I see is that you just know they'll be making a 400% Vader...and I know I'll be all over that. And then, I'll know in the back of my head that there is another :-[
I'm also wondering when they'll do a 1000% Fett :o
-
Now that we got these, anyone else thinking about picking up one of the Fetts?
Yeah, I've been ruminating on it for a while. But I can wait a bit for sure and will only need one of them.
As for the eventual Vader, you know it.
-
Now that we got these, anyone else thinking about picking up one of the Fetts?
That was exactly what I was thinking last night when I opened my Han. Those 400% are AMAZING! I still need Luke but i'm going to try and get Fett 1st...
-
When I knew I had the Luke & Han coming, I had to get a Fett.
I got the ESB one, I like it just as much and it is cheaper.
I paid 145 plus shipping, but I have seen them go a little cheaper.
Simon gets them sometimes and Honorius usually has some (check ebay for
honorious).
Hope for a Vader next!

These guys are GREAT. I am definitely in for a ESB Boba Fett now once I can save up the cash for it... ;)

Lookin good!

They look great Jeff, can't wait till my set arrives. 8)
-
Man, I want those…
-
Jeff,
Very cool, thanks for sharing the pic! I just paid HLJ for my set on Friday, looking forward to getting the package.
Shipping from HLJ via EMS was about $39 USD for both the 400% Han, 400% Luke and a box of series 5.
Off to ebaY to look for a Fett.
-
A bit of an odd place, but since the Kubaholics hang out here I'll post it here. I'll trade a set of 400% Luke/Han for a chase series 1 Boba Fett with red/yellow gauntlets :o

I have a set of 400% Kubs also that I'd be willing to trade if anyone wants to make an offer.

thanks simon! ;D
And what would that be Tan?? Don`t keep us guessing!
-
I got a surprise in the mail today! I must've ordered Luke and Han a while ago, because I got both of them from HLJ today! They are pretty darn nice. I think I need Boba Fett now.

I now have my stormtroopers in hand, they arrived today ;D I haven't opened them yet, so they're still sealed for that nifty little red/yellow Fett chase.
-
A parcel arrived from HLJ today, so my Stormies are here! But I'm stuck at work and haven't had a chance to open them yet. Can't wait!

They're heeeeere!!! 400% Kubrick Han & Luke Stormies!!!!! YIppeeee!!!! ;D

I can't wait either, I have a parcel pick up tomorrow! The customs charge puts it in the price range. (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/Southern%20Alberta%20Storms/triyippee.gif)
-
Jesse, did you get hit with customs? I know I did :'(
-
Yeah, about $25. :'(
-
Same as me. The
fascist Albertan pays less than us. Still, nice to have them and it continues the streak of always paying customs with orders from HLJ. I've come to expect it.
-
So is it time to track down a Fett?
-
Yep. There's one ending in about an hour at a decent price, but the top bidder is rather familiar so I backed off ;) I'll get one it time, hoping about $130 or so does it. Doesn't really matter which as I'd be happy with just one. I'll be all over the Vader when it comes though.
They're really nice and I like them a lot, but I don't need too many of them. Vader's a no brainer but beyond that and Fett and what I have, there's not that much I'd buy. I guess a Snowtrooper or Biker Scout would rock absolutely, but I could pass on a lot of others (not a blue snag 400% though 8))
-
Oh yeah, Vader's a must have (and an obvious one for Medicom to make, I would think).
I think it would be pretty hard to pass on an Emperor and a Royal Guard (or two ;)) - that would make a very cool display. I'd be happy with either red or blue Guards, but since Medicom seems to be avoiding PT stuff like the plague, I'd expect to see a red guard.
And the bounty hunters as 400% would look really sharp - the 100% figures have so much detailing in them, so they'd really stand out at 4 times that size.
Yep. There's one ending in about an hour at a decent price, but the top bidder is rather familiar so I backed off ;)
Good luck Congrats to him. :)
-
Can't beat that price! :)
Also got word that my Han and Luke are also here so I should now be set on 400% :) :) :)

I just picked up my parcel, gotta give HLJ credit for having the Luke & Stormie available. (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/froehlich/e016.gif)
Whoa! Gotta love that smell of the 400% Kuby's, intoxicating ! (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/midi/froehlich/a013.gif)

Congrats on the grab Scott!
I was watching that auction, but I went a different route... ;)

Dang these buggers are nice! ;D

-
Can't beat that grin on Han's face!
Have you guys had any problems getting their helmets off once you've put them on? I tried putting Luke's helmet on last night, but I only got about half way before it felt so tight that it wouldn't come off again. I didn't want to push my luck, so I just pulled the helmet off and haven't actually gotten it on all the way.
-
Nope, both my Han & Lukes helmets slip on & off with ease. Check the inside of your helmets Jesse and see if they are smooth, maybe there is a bit of plastic sticking out on the inside from the molding process. :-\
-
That looks like a 400% Wicket Bearbrick to me.
So do we get prizes for seeing this in that picture all those weeks ago? ;)
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/1-06/400wicket.jpg)(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/1-06/400wickeb.jpg)

I'd say yes. ;)
Anyone want to take a bet that Brent will decide to go after this 400% Kubrick instead of a Boba Fett? :P

Wicket info is now up at the be@rbrick site (http://www.bearbrick.com/wicket/)!
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/1-06/wf2006wicket.jpg)

And it looks like the offical date for Wonder Festival is Feb 19, 2006. Not far away!
500 to be sold at Wonder Festival, than the other 1506 sold to their Collector Club - unfortunately, Japanese residents only.
-
BUT WICKET WASN'T A BEAR! HE WAS AN EWOK!!! WHY MEDICOM WHY!?!?!
-
Didn't you know that Ewok is Medicomese for Bear? :P
I like this one. I want it - I'm such a sucker for cute stuff. ::)
-
I like this one. I want it
Agreed.
I'd love to have the regular version in my collection, but as a 1:192 chase figure from a long past series, they don't pop up on eBay all that often and when they do they are damn expensive (http://cgi.ebay.com/Rare-Medicom-Be-rbrick-Bearbrick-S7-Star-Wars-Wicket_W0QQitemZ6028734210QQcategoryZ36553QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem). :-\
Now, I can try to nab the 400% version for less than the regular version is selling for... :P
-

Agreed.
Uh yep! ;D

Never forget that Ewoks begat JarJar Binks. Without the success and love you dopes showed to the ROTJ fuzzballs there never would have been a JarJar and the world would have been spared **** like meesa/yoosa/shitsapantsapileacrap.
You could give the damn thing to me for free and I wouldn't keep it.
-
It's probably a bloody Ewok, which is a good thing, because I won't be wasting my money on that.
Lest you forget, I called that smelly piece of crap a mile away. :-*
-
You could give the damn thing to me for free and I wouldn't keep it.
Yeah, well you could give me a damn Fett and I wouldn't keep it either. Honest.

Yeah, now tell me which one of us is nuts? :-*

-
Interesting picture, I enlarged it a tad to get a better looky.
(http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/Kubricks/Figures%20400.jpg)
The Kuby next to Boba looks like a Stormtrooper to me, I'm gong by the black marks on the mouth piece, where the arm connects to the body and the black mark around the hand.
As for this other mystery Kuby, sure looks like an Ewok, there are 400% Be@rbrick's so they can use that mold.
Just pray that they don't start making 1000% SW Kuby's or you'll be broke! :-\
Ok, the wicket specualtion came true (damn them!).
I hope that is a 400% Stormtrooper on the far right next to Fett then! Not
just Luke/Han with a helmet on ;D
-
A flaming furball, that would have been a cool thing to see in the movie! :D
Wasn't there one on fire or at least smoking during the battle on Endor?
-
I think there was a steaming ewok :P, it was supposed to be a heart-tugging moment. ::)
Thanks Jeff for hooking me up to the super-sized-krack stormie set. They are even bigger than I expected, and twice as cool! ;D

Gotcha! Just a little hard to see the pistol in the holster.

2 just went for pre-order. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
-
Ouch! That's a hell of a price! :-\
-
think theyre going to regret that later...
cant see them going for much over double their original price if that.
Now wicket's coming out Im thinking that medicom will definately release the last chase Bobba now. I'm sure that's him at the end of the bookcase... looks different to the others. guess time will tell
-
One thing I was thinking of concerning a 400% Vader...he'd be a pretty unique piece in that his body size and tooling are vastly different than the standard 400%. Might be the reason why they haven't done one yet
-
I'd put money on a 400% Vader by the end of the year. Any takers?
-

Thats a sucker bet! I think we`ll see one too, 99% sure of it. And MAYBE a regular ol`
Stormtrooper. Of course, I would need 2 stormies to flank Vader, damn medicom! $$$$
-
Actually, I hope that the next one is a 400% Chewie, cause it'd look great with Luke and Han. The 100% Chewie is one of the best Star Wars Kubs and a 400%er would do it real justice.
-
A 400% Chewie would be fantastic! He would have to be closer to a 500%- make him a head taller than Han and Luke.
Vader has to be coming soon. I just hope his helmet is a little better at staying put than the 100% version.
-
A Vader would be a great addition to this line. 8)
-
I heartily endore a 400% Vader or a 400% Chewbacca. Either would be a great addition to the line!

I think MadCows head would pop if they made one though ;D

how come nobody thought of a 400% R2-D2?
i think that would be awesome!

Here is the thread with Founder talking about the shipping.
I got real worried cause they used the wrong zipcode when they shipped
it out (OOPS!).

I don't remember whether I did SAL or otherwise, but I've had mine for a couple of weeks I believe.

Mine was shipped SAL, they got here in good time.

Sorry to report Tony that mine came by SAL as well, not EMS. I checked the box and the SAL stamp is on there. So mine came promptly.

I see the ewoks have started hitting ebay in force- $140.00 and up with BIN's. It will be interesting to see where the actual auction ones end. with ESB Fett holding pretty steady at $150.00, I can't see the furballs ending up higher than that.
-
I caved. The more I looked at it, the more I liked it. Which means I might have to get the damn 100%er now. It's not part of the Kubrick Star Wars range, that is for sure. But then again....
:P
Damn you completests everywhere.

Anyway, I love this 400% Ewok. I think I'm going to have to make arrangements to add him to my collection... ;)

Wow, nice score!

Very nice price! I think I paid more than that ordering it direct from my Japanese wholesaler.
-
That's a great price on that figure.
I've noticed the price on these drifting down lately. They seem to be closer to $75-80 each instead of the $90-100 they started out at on eBay.

I think you're right, with the EMS shipping from HLJ for my sets, mine worked out to more than $80 each too. :-\

That makes me :) because I still have to pick up Luke but it also makes me :( because I jumped the gun when I bought Han...

Don`t be too :-[
You never know with these things. They could have went the other way and
been going for over 100 now. Seems the 400% settle in at a price after awhile
and stay there though.

Now I can recreate the scene where Han and Luke are escorting Wicket to the detention cell. :P

Great pics Jeff! I feel a little less guilty spending the $$ on him now. ;)
Can Wicket hold the blaster to Fett's head? :D
-
I've been watching these things go on auction, and trying to make sure I don't drink enough to bid. The first one to go on the bay went on Feb 16th for 227.00 (inluding shipping). The last one to end (the 14th to sell on the bay) went for 98 and change, shipped. There are still 1500+ of these to hit the market. I'm not sure if there will be a difference in paint from the first 500, but it appears that waiting a little longer may really pay off if you want one of these.
-
Well it ain't no Fett, that's for sure :P
-
I do have an extra 400 Fett, the ESB version. I picked up both versions, and decided to only keep one.
$150.00 plus shipping, probably another 13-15.00
PM me if interested-
All gone-

My Wicket showed up yesterday - very cool. I saw Boba Fett at Dale's place and he looked VERY impressive, the detailing was beautiful. Eventually, I'm sure I'll pull the trigger on him too.

My Wicket arrived on Tuesday but I was out of town for the week and I just picked him up. 8)

I'd say so. I paid a little more for mine, but I was impatient and jumped the gun. Still looking for a Luke but i'm going to hold off til I find one REALLY cheap...

PM sent to Madcow 8)

Yay !!!
Han arrived today , man he is sweet, Now I need to score me a Luke Trooper.
I wasnt too sure about the 400% thing but after having one, now I definately need the other.
Woo and Hoo
Dale this is still all your fault, got me into these dam kubricks !!!

wow, great news!
And, a biker scout coming with speeder?
-
Hmmm, maybe I have a place for those other 400% "stormtroopers" now ;)
-
Wow. Is that anothe Fett variant too? Looks like the Scout trooper will come in some kind of box set. Sweet!!
-
Wow. This is great news. I can't wait for the 400% Vader. The Series 4 version of Vader is my personal favorite Kubrick (that I own). It'll probably be my first 400% Kubrick. The other 400%'s are out of my budget but I'll make an exception to get that Vader into my Kubrick set-up....
-
Wow. Is that anothe Fett variant too?
Hmmm, lets compare the Fetts.
Bounty Hunter X and Boba Fett ESB Version

The 2 pics that surfaced.
(http://chinese-starwars.com/chineseforum/upload_images/image1069.jpg)
(http://chinese-starwars.com/chineseforum/upload_images/image1068.jpg)
The last pic has a better view thus far, looks like the Bounty Hunter X version with the ESB versions rifle. The color of the gloves are the ESB version. The marks on the chest plate & the groin cover are the Bounty Hunter X version & the belt has pouches.
Wish we had better pics of this. :-\
-
Guess I'll put these here since technically it's a 400% figure (with bonus 100% included).
Found some more pics while trolling Yahoo Japan today...

And I dont mean the closet... ;D
-
That Be@rbrick does nothing for me, I do like the box tho.
I'll agree there. The 400% line is my favorite but those just bore me. I have and love the Wicket but at least it's character-based...
I for one can't wait for the 400% Vader. I have all the others so this will be a welcomed addition. The Boba is cool but I already have the ESB version so i'll pass...

Same here. Bearbricks don`t really impress me, just all boring (except the horror one I got with the hockey mask on, that one was cool).
Vader is a must have! Boba, meh, I have one, thats all I really need. I wish I had the BxH version, but I`m very happy with the ESB one.

Roughly 9" to 10" tall. A really good size. ;D
-
Hey everyone!
New to the board. I was driven here because of the frontpage Star Wars Kubrick news, which is my latest collecting interest / obsession.
That 400% Vader looks AWESOME!
I'm in to the Imperial Bearbrick but the prices on those 400% pieces bum me out some times, lol.
I'm sure Vader will be worth it but do you think he will top $100 also?
-
I never got around to buying any of the 400% ones and i am starting to think i did the right thing. As cool as they are, I dont think i could afford it.
-
I just checked HLJ.com and no sign of the 400% Vader yet. They do have the 400% Luke and Han Stormtroopers listed as in stock though :o

Would be nice if we did, since I just parted with my second set of Han/Luke. Any chance it's just one of those guys with the lid on?
Also for clarification, is this the first confirmation we have that Vader's helmet is removable? Just like the little version, so very, very nice.

Can`t quite tell if that is just Han/Luke with the helmet on or not. I would think they would have both of them there, with helmets off if they were showing those. I do think it is a 400% stormie.
This is the first pic of Vader sans helmet I have seen (although it is kind of eluded too in the ad picture background)
-
I'm absolutely loving the removable helmet again. I don't care who I have to kill, I will have one.

As for the Stormtrooper, I can't anything from that pic to compare the Han & Luke. Looks the same with the helmet on, gotta have better pic's of this guy.

SO TEMPTED!!!! :o

I will most likely pass on the Stormie... maybe.... aw, who am I kidding, if it's a new 400% Stormie I'll buy it. :-[
Vader is a definite MUST HAVE. :)
-
I'll pull the trigger if they have a 400% Yoda – until then I think I can resist. That Vader though.....

-
So who is getting 2, 1 to display helmet on and 1 with it off?
-
That looks to be a new Stormie to me. If you look closely, it looks as though the head is smaller than the Han/Luke. And it also seems to be one piece, no flesh colored neck...

That Stormie is defo different. There is the blue stripes on the size of the helmet.
I am defo gonna get me two of those Vaders, I just need to find me a cheap 400% Fett, or just get one of those new ones.

Getting a better look at the Toy Show pic, I see a flesh colored neck. That area (raised circle) on the side of the head has 2 black & 1 blue stripe that are also raised, the blue stripe is in the center. They look identical unless I am missing something. :-\
-
Not much help, but here's the shot bountyhunter-ck posted over at snowtroopers. Not sure of the source though, so probably shouldn't leave it up over long.

I see that Ningyoushi.com is taking a preorder on the Vader, $120. with a deposit of $50. According to the site, Vader is estimated to ship December end 2006.
400% Star Wars Darth Vader Kubrick (PREORDER) (http://ningyoushi.com/product/PO030)
I'm holding off till I see something from HLJ & RoBBy.jp which hopefully will be soon. :)

That's a bit pricey, I agree. I'll wait on our other Japanese friends, much more reasonable are they.

Oooh... can't wait for Robby or HLJ to put these up. I'll definitely be grabbing a Vader for my 400% Shelf. :)
Needless to say, but if anyone sees them at Robby/HLJ please let those of us with reduced free time lately know ASAP. ;)
-
I'd imagine HLJ putting the 400% Vader up for pre order shortly. They put up the 400% Willy Wonka a little while ago as an early bird (5% off). How are the shipping costs from HLJ to the US anyways?
-
Shipping is not too bad, I have my stuff shipped SAL but they might ship EMS depending on the size.
As for shipping, I looked at the 400% Han & Luke & EMS is $24.11 & SAL is $11.02 US.
-
Do they ship to sunny olde England?
-
Yep, worldwide.
How much will shipping cost? (http://www.hlj.com/hlj_shipping.html)

Thanks for the story on the ROTJ Fett coming guys, I guess I'll be snagging that one instead of the previously released versions as I only ever wanted one. Any word/thoughts on where it will be released? A general release would be fantastic to Robby/HLJ at the usual price around $70 or so.

Nothing thus far Brent, should be in the near future. Oh I'll snag the Fett then I'll have the hat trick! ;D

Go Go go!!! ;D

Nice catch Mike, well done. $94.99 is a lot better than we have seen & BBTS is closer to home so to speak. I have never has a problem with BBTS so I put my preorder in for 2. Will still see what HLJ & RoBBy.jp has to offer, might be cheaper but I'm weighing the odds with shipping & such from Japan.
-
Thanks for the heads up! I just placed my order-
I have never dealt with BBTS before, but have seen many good comments on the boards. Any concern about not fulfilling? Should I be looking to "hedge my bet" elsewhere?
-
i like BBTS alot....i've done ordering with them in the past and have never had any problems. they are a very reliable and the expedite their orders promptly which is a major plus in my book.
also i'd like to note that, ningyoushi has put up a preorder for the 400% vader as well. it's $120 and requires a deposit of $50.

I've Ordered tons of stuff from BBTS & have alot of stuff on Pre-order with them. No worries w/ them!

I asked Ryo about the 400% Vader, he said he will update me soon...
I hope so! Have to figure out if getting from Robby or BBTS would be cheaper.
-
The nice thing about BBTS & HLJ is you can cancel an order. ;)
-
Isn't Robby.jp closing shop for a couple of days starting this weekend? So if it's not updated in the next day or so, it won't be for a bit yet.
And how much cheaper was Robby than HLJ? I didn't think the price at HLJ was really that bad.
-
Ordered one from each HLJ and BBTS, don't care where I get it from, just glad to be getting one

Yes, RoBBy.jp is relocating. Office closed : August 9 ? August 16.
Not sure about RoBBy, I remember we got ours from HLJ.

This is it gang, looks like the only ticket to get it here in North America thus far. Place those orders and the best of luck with ya. ;)
Jesse mentioned that he got hit with $25. customs but that was for the 2 Stormtroopers.
-
****! Check your e-mail, RoBBy just sent one out for the Vader! ;D
-
The item number given by RoBBy is wrong, should be 10081796, not 10071796. Found it in a search. ;)
-
Wholesale price 6095 yen = $52.98 US. Difference from HLJ $10.17 US.
Looks like RoBBy is the winner for cost. ;D
Booking deadline 2006/08/17. Release date: 2006/09/30.
-
Sweet 8) That's ordered and done now.
Noticed it is limited to 4000 pieces as well. :-\
-
****! Check your e-mail, RoBBy just sent one out for the Vader! ;D
I was just about to break down and order from HLJ and now Robby comes through. :)
I just put in my order for 4... not all for me though. :P
-
My order is in too. ;D
I just cancelled my order at BBTS, to easy! ;)
-
Is MikeyD in with anybody? I know he's interested.
-

Yeah. ;)
-
Good, thanks. We'd talked about it and I'd love to help, but by the time I get hit with ridiculous customs fees and then have to ship it down there, he's paying a lot more with me than you (whore).
-
Pimping whore! :P
-
Can someone hook me up with the Vader???
-
I got my order into RoBBy!
Can someone hook me up with the Vader???
PM me your address again Hemish and I'll see if I can ship one directly to you.
-
Much thanks again, Jeff. Looking forward to adding another big one to the collection.
-
Received a confirmation email this morning from Robby. Not sure really yet if that means I'm in and good to go or if we'll have to wait on quantities they receive.
-
I got the same thing Brent, hopefully we are good to go! :)
-
RoBby said the same thing when I ordered Han & Luke. Very limited and couldn`t gaurantee (spelled that wayyy wrong!) I would get them. I don`t think this one will be a problem, really. Can`t wait to get this bad boy!

Sith n' Sudds...a little bit of beer and 400% Bricks before Series 7.
Can't wait.
-
I'm in for a couple of these thanks to the Minnesota brick-pimp (Jeff). I'm not sure if I will keep the second or give it to the brother-in-law, he's going to have to start mowing the lawn if he wants it... ;D
-
For those in need of a 400% Stormie Luke, FreeBento.com (http://www.freebento.com/store/customer/product.php?productid=680&cat=&page=1) has him for $80.00
-
I just saw the 400% vader at wonderfestival.. I dont think anyone who ordered will be dissappointed- its a seriously nice chunk of plastic. Lightsaber looks a bit feeble but could easily be replaced with a bit of red 5mm dowel;)
-
Last weekend, I went to a local comic/toy show and Boba Fett himself, Mr. Jeremy Bulloch happened to be there. I knew about this for a few weeks prior and debated on what I want to get signed then it hit me, the 400% Boba Kub. Well I hauled this huge thing down there and got in line. When he saw it, his eyes lit up. Turns out he was just given both versions, BxH and ESB as a gift from Lucasfilm. We talked for a few minutes and he gladly signed it for me. Hands down, the nicest celebrity i've ever met... David Prowse (Darth Vader) was supposed to be there but had to cancel. Which is a good thing for me as I now want him to sign the 400% Vader when I get it. I think i've found a new hobby within the Kub hobby...
Here are the pics!:

Fantastic Madcow! I feel like I had a hand in it! If I go to a convention, I may have him do the same for mine.
-
Very nice Madcow. 8)
For those who ordered the 400% Vader (http://www.hlj.com/product/BLD30071) at HLJ, I noticed that they put an "Order Stop" on him.
This is a new item that has not yet been released by the manufacturer. We have already taken all the orders we expect to be able to fill. No further orders will be accepted until supplies are confirmed when the product is released.
In some cases, even prior to release, our suppliers inform us that the amount of a new product we can buy may be limited. If we take as many orders for something as we can reasonably expect to fill, we will place that item in this "order stop" status until we can confirm how many pieces will be available at the time of release. If we fill all pre-orders, and still have stock remaining, then the item will be put in regular, in-stock status and we'll begin accepting orders again.

What a great story! That piece will definitely be a keeper in your collection for a long time.

You did, thanks for the great deal! ;)
-
I've been looking at the Kubrick collection, and was wondering who you guys would like to see in the 400% line.
I settled on 2 that I thought would translate really well to the 400% size, Chewbacca and Bossk. Chewbacca is a great looking Kubrick, and Bossk may hands-down be the cutest assassin ever produced as a toy. Any other suggestions?
-
I'd like to see R2-D2 in the 400% scale.
That'd work out pretty cool I think...
-
Biker Scout - I think this is likely.
Tie Pilot
Snowtrooper
any imperial...
Droids R2 :P
-
Now that Simon put the idea in my head, I want a 400% Rancor to go with the little guys. ;D
-
400% Rancor sound like a great idea...but how bout that 400% rancor boxed with a 100% rancor keeper exclusive... :)
-

Just got a message from my supplier to say that the 400% Vaders will be delivered on October 7th!! ;D
-
Whoops. Forgot about this thread. Vader!! October 7th!! ;D

Anyone get word from RoBby or HLJ about these???

Neither yet, but it's still quite early. Over a week away, so I expect notice maybe Thursday next week or so.
-
Cool! Guess that means us guys in the States should have him in-hand by the end of October! :)
-
Whoops. Forgot about this thread. Vader!! October 7th!! ;D
Sweet! I can`t wait to get this. Now, do I pose him with Fett, or with my Vader stuff... Hmmmmm...

I think it is going to be affordable to buy 2 of these (If $80-100 is an affordable amount) seeings as there will be 4000 of these floating around. Far more than any other Kubrick Star Wars release we have seen so far. The price will stay relatively low I think.
-
With the 100% being 4 per case, and rising in secondary price about as fast as the stormtrooper (army builder), I wouldn't be surprised if this goes up a little. As much as we collectors dig Fett, many people who will only own one Star Wars kubrick will opt for Vader. I ordered two, so I can either keep one in the box, have two on display, or if the holiday spirit hits me hard, my brother in law will get a wicked cool x-mas present.
-
Whoops. Forgot about this thread. Vader!! October 7th!! ;D
October 7th came early. I received an e-mail from RoBBy.jp that the 400% Vader are now available & will be shipping very soon. 8)
-
Zoiks!
I received the same email and Robby is indicating they are already in the warehouse 8)

Can't wait to add Vader... I'm thinking I'll have to convert Han and Luke to basic Stormies for a while to go with him on the shelf. 8)
-
Nice. Should have mine from Japan via Minnesota shortly then.

SWEEEEET!
-
Ooh, pretty. Here's hoping Jeff ordered two for himself.
-
That is very nice. The next few months should be loaded with Kubrick fun.
We never did get word of an '06 TRU pack, did we?

Nope.
And, with the `05 going on clearance, not sure they will do another.
I hope so, maybe in lesser numbers.

I got mine in today. They came a week earlier than I expected which is not a bad thing. I think they look better than the 100%. For some reason the head seems to be more in proportion with the body.
-
i can't wait to see some of your pics of the 400% vader. i actually gave it some thought preordering him a few months back but ultimately chose not to. i figured that the SW kubricks are pricy enough (especially with series 7 around the corner) and i didn't want to start up another expensive collection (because i'd have to hunt the other pricy SW 400% kubricks such as Boba and the Luke/Han Stormtroopers).
-
Got my shipping notice from Robby today.
Should be here maybe later this week, early next week! ;D
-
Should arrive tomorrow, hit JFK last night, weeeeeeeeeee!
-
Vader is here!
Box was flippin huge! Angus seems to like it though ;D

He`s really quite heavy! Also, the smell of paint, it is intoxicating! Got a good
blast when I popped him open :D
-
Sweet! Can't wait till he arrives up here, yeah that sweet Kuby smell is sure intoxicating. Pure Kuby goodness! ;D
-
Shoosh you, dammit now i'm thinking I should get one.
Must resist urge to spend money I dont have.......
-
Just one! :-X ;D

You are a bad bad bad bad man !!!

-

How close now?
-
Looks like he's at the St. Paul main branch today... they should try to deliver him today at some point. I don't know if they will leave them at the door though, so I may have to pick them up at the post office tomorrow.
-
Mine only shipped yesterday :-\ Given what my week looks like next week, it's probably two weeks before I have him in my hands. Not that it really matters much, I'll open up the outer box, look at him and then load him onto the stack of other boxes in the basement anyway >:( ::)
-

Sadly, i'm in the same boat as you. Everything I have is being boxed up for the time being... :(
-
You two are talking nonsense! Get those babies, open them up, and let them see the world through their own eyes, not through extra layers of plastic, cardboard, rubbermaid bins, etc.
People will start to think all you collect is rubbermaid tubs! ;)
-
And put it where?
New house. My room to be in basement. Need to wait until we've gone through a winter before finishing basement (shifting, flooding, etc.).
Trust me, I have no interest in the plastic and cardboard, Vader needs to breathe. But the box will provide protection until he can do so.
-
How about the top of the fridge? Or on a plant stand in the corner? Any 6" by 6" flat surface will do! ;D
-
You're not married, are you? Or won't be for long :P
-
You're not married, are you? Or won't be for long :P
Amen to that brother. If I have to hear my wife one more time telling me that I need to pack all my crap up... TO THE MOON ALICE!!!
-
Ah, I am married, but I keep her medicated much of the time. She loves Kaluha mudslides.
My trick was to get the kids on board. My 5 year old daughter asks repeatedly "can we watch a star wars movie tonight?" and my 8 year old helps me maintain my spreadsheet of the collection. By making it a family event, it is no longer perceived as a selfish collection! Bwahaaa haaa ha ha ha ;)

Wow! He really towers over Boba Fett! Nice!
Glad to see collectors opening their toys.

Not sure if this has been covered but does anyone know when the 400% Jedi Fetts hit the street and if Robby will be carrying them? Also, I just got my 400% Vader and it is HUGE! Packaging is cool too.

Not at this time, sure hope to hear about him by year end or just after the new year.
My Vader arrived in Vancouver so with it be a long weekend here, should be sometime this week. ;D
-
Looks like he's at the St. Paul main branch today... they should try to deliver him today at some point. I don't know if they will leave them at the door though, so I may have to pick them up at the post office tomorrow.
- No note on Friday... :-\
- Post Office did try to deliver then on Saturday, but I was out and about... :(
- Can't pick them up today (Holiday)... >:(
- Guess it's Tuesday morning then to get my 400% Vader... :)
-
Stupid Columbus day! ;)
-
Stupid Columbus day! ;)
Hey, the Italian Americans need a holiday too!

Finally picked up my 400% Vaders from the Post Office this AM!
Can't wait to get home tonight and get him all opened up... :)

Sweet Kuby goodness! Vader(s) is in da house! ;D 8)

Dang that display box is huge & I mean huge! :o
Best part... no customs! ;D :P :-*
-
Two! :o
I can't wait to get mine, but it hasn't shipped yet. :( I changed my credit card a couple months ago and RoBBy still has my old credit card # on file. Unfortunately, with their website being down, I don't have a secure way of giving them my new #. Doh.
-
Damn, but that shipping box is monstrous. Customs fees :'( based on box size ::) But hey, Vader hath arrived.
-
The box is huge! Thanks to Jeff for continuing to supply me with the Kubrick junk. I can't wait to get home and get him lined up next to Fett and the troopers.
-
Congrats Dale, Brent and Jeff. My order from HLK shipped two days ago.
I just checked the mail and looked over at the door hoping for this or the Michael Jordan jersey that I ordered. I don't know what I was hoping for...
The mail delivered by stealth I guess - one can only hope.
Can't wait to get this sucker as it looks great. I don't like to harp on any negatives but I was hoping for a box similar to the Han and Luke 400% stormies or 400% Fett. I guess it does not really matter to much as this puppy will promptly be opened up.
-
Damn, but that shipping box is monstrous. Customs fees :'( based on box size ::) But hey, Vader hath arrived.
Customs... ouch! :-\
Yeah, pretty darn big shipping box. When the girl at Purolator brought out my parcel, my jaw hit the floor. I haven't had a parcel that big since I got that Premium Grievous. :o
-
Look who arrived at my doorstop yesterday...
Four days transit from Japan to AZ USA seems fast!

-
I find the shipping from Japan to be a lot faster than in our countrie. The Vader sure towers over the other 400%. ;D
Great pic Matt. :)
-
Well I got Vader yesterday and I have to say he is HUGE! Much bigger than i was expecting. Not sure if i will be buying any other of these, i think they are too big. I like the little guys better.

Sweet, I love how he towers over the others. 8)
-
I finally got around to opening my Vader yesterday and HE RULES! What a great figure, the detail is amazing. The best part to me is that the helmet ACTUALLY STAYS ON! I can't get the 100% version to stay without glue...
This brings me to, what does everyone think will be the next "NEW" 400% piece? Of course I would kill a small army for a Chewie but i'd also like to see a droid preferably R2...
-
400% R2 is my guess ;)
-
400% R2 is my guess ;)
Droids version :P
-
I think the detailing in the AT-AT Driver would make for an awesome 400% version. 8)
-
knowing Medicom, they'll probably do a Tie Pilot ::)
-
Got my Vader from HLJ today
The Stench :-[
The Size :o
The Coolness 8)
BY far my favorite collectible I own right now, it really is the greatest piece in my pile of crap and looks incredible...thanks Medicom :)
-
I cleared a cabinet in the living room for the 4 of them- Luke and Han are stormtroopers for the forseeable future... Wicked cute villians rule!
-
I cleared a cabinet in the living room for the 4 of them
What, no 400% Wicket? ???
-
I cleared a cabinet in the living room for the 4 of them
What, no 400% Wicket? ???
At the risk of sounding morbugian- No way, no how. I will accept ewoks as part of the regular releases, I will not go after chase ewoks or bearbricks.
-
;D
:-*
-
Morgbugian? That must be an awful disease.
-
I think they'll do a Tie Pilot... Or Wicket
-
Yay my 400% Luke Stormy showed up today, man kicking myself for not getting these sooner.
Vader is next on the hit list, just need to sell some more stuff first.
-
I want a 400% vinty Yak Face & I mean vinty! ;D
-
So I saw a 400% Vader with removable helmet today. I have to admit it was very cool. I don't know what the price was, but I get the feeling it was priced higher than I wanted to pay.
-
If anyone is interested, HLJ has a sale on the 400% Han Stormtrooper.
400% Kubrick Stormtrooper: Han Solo (http://www.hlj.com/product/BLD30061)
Inventory Clearance!
Order now to get this item for 20% off the regular price of 7,619 yen or $52.85 US or $60.25 CDN.
-
Bad timing or I`d grab one to use as a Stormie. Price is right though, thanks for the heads up!
-
400% Vader (http://www.brianstoys.com/store/ProductInfo.aspx?productid=SSI400BDARTHVADERC9*NEWYEAR) at Brians Toys for $59.99 ;)
-
.......another 400% boba. 500 at the show, and a further 1507 through the website. This is all according to the wonderfestival catalogue.
I think we all knew it was coming at some point. I'd have rathered something along the lines of a Rebo box set, but my wallet is smiling to itself. I've already got the last WF version so I can safely give this a miss. 8)
edit: just shortening up that title a bit - Jeff
-
Boy, I wouldn't have guessed that myself- 3 versions of 400 Boba before they make R2, Chewie, 3PO, or Yoda? I like my current chunky Fett just fine, so I guess this is money saved here too.
-
Which Fett is it though? Droids deco? pseudo-McQuarrie Deco?
-
That kind of sucks, i was hoping for something. My guess is this will be a Droids Boba fett. I may consider that, but if its soemthing else i will pass.
-
I still need a 400% Fett, so regardless of version, I'm happy to see a new glut of Ebay material coming on. I don't particularly care which Fett version I end up, but I'm hoping my price can stay around $150 shipped. I think Scott got his for about that much.
-
Didn't we see already see pics of a third RotJ colors Fett at some point? We just didn't know where it would show up, right?
(goes off to dig in the 400% Thread)
Ah, here we are - Remember this Fett from Parco last summer?
Thanks for the story on the ROTJ Fett coming guys, I guess I'll be snagging that one instead of the previously released versions as I only ever wanted one. Any word/thoughts on where it will be released? A general release would be fantastic to Robby/HLJ at the usual price around $70 or so.
Here was the pic and the front page news story (http://www.jedidefender.com/newspro/fullnews.cgi?newsid1153983756,58098,) that Brent mentions in his post from back in the summer:
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/7-06/jp_magazine_medicom_1copy.jpg)
-
Great, the ROTJ version 400% Fett for the collection. I was wondering when we would hear about him. 8)
-
Which Fett is it though? Droids deco? pseudo-McQuarrie Deco?
It is the return of the jedi sculpt.
-
Thanks for posting the old post Jeff, I was too lazy to dig it out. Nice to see it's that version. I said I didn't care which, but I'd have been least keen on the Droids coloration, so this is nice to see.
BTW, if anyone's looking for a 400% Vader, I have a spare.
-
Thanks for posting the old post Jesse,
Jesse? >:(
-
Quit abusing your power to modify my posts and make it look like I did it.
:-[ sorry
-
It is the return of the jedi sculpt.
Thanks for confirming that... I'd guess we can expect to a better pic of Fett with the Medicom website update on Friday. :)
-
Like Brent said, I'm not overly picky as to which version I get, but I'd be quite happy with the ROTJ one.
For comparison:

Hang on to your nut sacks gang, Blister Direct (http://www.blister.jp/2nd/) has the 400% Shadow Stromtrooper listed on the site. Limited to 1000.
(http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i306/DSJcdn/Kubricks%20Series%206/Kubrick400ShadowStormtrooper.jpg)
Nice! I`ll pass, but this means a regular Stormie might be on the way, of which I will need 2 :D
-
Man would I like to get one of those! I tried downloading the language software so I could view blister, but my pc insisted I had to find my XP disc to do it- what is the ordering info?
-
If I recall correctly, blister won`t ship to the US.
However, all the blister "exclusives" have been offered elsewhere in the past.
(400% Han & Luke were exclusives I think, and a few others)
-

Correct, Blister does NOT ship to the USA.
However, all the blister "exclusives" have been offered elsewhere in the past.
As long as it is a Blister Direct exclusive (like the Stormie Han/Luke and Vader were) then they should offer it to other wholesalers like Robby and HLJ. BUT, if it is a Blister Store exclusive, they will not offer it to other places. It will only be available in their store like the GG Shadowtrooper bust they had last summer.
I can't really read the small print on that pic, but that does not look like the Blister Direct logo on there...

Hopefully one of our Japanese friends can get us some more info on this one... :-\
-
(400% Han & Luke were exclusives I think, and a few others)
I think that's right, but I don't think the Han and Luke had an edition size, did they?
-
All of the 400% have been limited...
400% 'Vintage' Fett - 1000 pieces (BxH Exclusive)
400% 'ESB' Fett - 2005 pieces (W2005 WCC Exclusive)
400% Stormtrooper Han - 2000 pieces (Blister Direct Exclusive)
400% Stormtrooper Luke - 2000 pieces (Blister Direct Exclusive)
400% Darth Vader - 4000 pieces (Blister Direct Exclusive)
400% 'RotJ' Fett - 2007 pieces (W2007 WF Exclusive)
-
All right then, not as limited as the BHS or vintage Fett then.
Interesting to see that information together there (yeah, I could find it on the checklist, but it's soooo far away) and see that Han/Luke are actually pretty limited but don't command much of a premium. I want a Fett but can't get one for under $150 (for the ESB) or really not even close now and it's about the same numbers as Luke/Han that I can get on clearance. Huh.
BTW, that list needs updating, the BHS 400% isn't on it ::) ;)
-
Just to update, the 400% Shadow Stormtrooper is on the Blister site, not the Blister Direct site. To much going at once & a little excited seeing it. :-[
-
Correct, I checked with my buddy over there and it is not yet available for sale.
-
Slave 1 (http://www.slave1.jp/) has pic's up of the ROTJ version Fett. Sure looks good. 8)

I can't decide if I should wait and see if they make a 400% regular Stormie or just go with Han or Luke for now...
-

I'd say go with Han since you're really getting 2 figures for the price of 1. I have my Vader displayed with my "Stormtroopers" flanking him, but I could take their helmets off and display them as Han and Luke later. :)

That is disgusting >:(

Yup that's his MO. I just wonder what he pays people to wait on line for him...
-
He has no problem letting people know that's for sure!
CB
-
he didnt need to wait long in line. when I got there there were 2 people in the queue and at least a couple of hundred fetts behind the counter.
-
Wow! I hope you got a couple!

Man, that sucks...

Hmm, odd. Now it's a show exclusive? Or does this guy just not know what he's talking about? I do however appreciate the extra photos. I sooooo want one of these...
-

It is still exclusive to Blister, but now we know where/how they will sell it. Blister.jp is hosting an in-store event/show (http://www.blister.jp/2nd/) at the end of March to celebrate the 2nd Anniversary of their brick&mortar "World Characters Store" in Shibuya (area in Tokyo).

Click here for more pics! (http://www.blister.jp/2nd/index-txt2.html)
At this time, it will NOT be offered via Blister Direct, so that means that the chances of places like Robby or HLJ getting these is extremely low at this point. :(
-
Its bitter sweet with these for me. I bought one (which i put up a post in the classified about) and just didnt have the same love for these as the little guys. It saves me money, but i enjoy buying the product.

Argh, this sucks! Oh well I guess Ebay will be my only resort.

See for me it's the opposite. Before I really started collecting Kubs, I fell in love with the 400% Batman at a Toy Store in NYC. From then on I was hooked on these in this scale. Don't get me wrong, I really like the regular Kubricks and still collect them but i've decided to just stick to basic issue pieces and stay away all from the chases/exclusives. The 400% are the exception for me and I don't feel as bad dropping $75-125 on them as I feel i'm getting more for my money...

This puppy is going to cost some big $$$ me thinks. :-\

Medicom Star Wars Shadow Stormtrooper 400% Kubrick Rare
Only 1000 Limited Edition in Japan Toy Show Exclusive (http://cgi.ebay.com/Medicom-Star-Wars-Shadow-Stormtrooper-400-Kubrick-Rare_W0QQitemZ280088611794QQihZ018QQcategoryZ48972QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
This auction is Blister & Medicom Exclusive Limited Edition Only 1000 Worldwide in Japan Toy Show. Only sale in the show. Cannot buy it anywhere. Star Wars Shadow Stormtrooper 400% Kubrick.
Will be interesting to see what happens when this puppy is released. The auction went for $112.50 US.
-
I'd say that's a pretty reasonable price - with a little luck and good timing, you might be able to grab one for less than $100.
I'm much more interested in the Fett - methinks that will cost a hell of a lot more.
-
With this being the 3rd Fett release, I would think it should hover around $100 for a while at least. I wouldn't wait too long, but there should be some decent deals out there. Unfortunately, shipping these bad boys is a chunk of change in and of itself.
-
The new Fett hasn't been too bad but I would still hold off til the rest of the 1507 are released. That should drop prices across the board on Fett...
-
In the house! 8)

Huh. I don't remember asking, though I'm sure I probably hinted at it, but my friend in Japan ended up at the Blister show this past weekend and he managed to grab one of those big, ole black stormtrooper thing-a-ma-bobs.

Mine's bigger than hers and has a job, both helpful in this case. And yeah, my friend has been downright amazing of late between Kubricks and Gentle Giant.
And like Honorius, I'm bragging, though I should know better, but I wasn't expecting to see an email this morning with a picture of my new acquisition waiting to be shipped. I know I didn't ask him to go to the show, so I was hoping he could hook up online with Blister.jp or something a little later on. This was way, way sooner than expected so I had to mention it. Saving $$ while spending $$.

That is always good.
I hope mine can get a few April Box sets so i have some to go to friends.
There is at least one figure in the set people I know want, be it Yoda the Snowtrooper or the 3-po.

Mine's finally in transit, along with his smaller sibling (finally). You don't want to know what I paid for them :-X
His Fett brother should be along in a while as well, taking me to exactly where I want to be with the 400% line.

You're too young Jesse, trust me. That and you have poor taste in music.
My 400% Shadow Stormtrooper arrived today. Tucked inside the box was his much smaller sibling, so it's a very black Kubrick day around here. Timing was perfect to offset the disappointment of no series 8 announcement.

I'm brand new to the Kubrick Scene... however, I've got a chance to get a 400% Boba Fett Kubrick - ROTJ version - (brand new) for $130 (including shipping). Is this a reasonable price on this item? I don't have a good sense of how much the 400% guys go for.
-
It's not bad at all really. I got mine for about $112 plus shipping or so, same ballpark.
LMK if you need a 400% Vader, I can beat that price for sure ;)

OK, so technically he's a Be@rbrick and not a Kubrick ;), but if any of the newer collectors are interested, I've got my 400% Wicket up for sale for $100 plus shipping.
