Title: Kubrick Stormtrooper Han & Luke 2-Pack
Post by: Symposium on July 26, 2010, 09:53 AM


●STAR WARS BE@RBRICK 100% C-3PO&R2-D2セット 時期未定 ¥未定

- Be@rbrick 2-pack, like the Vader/Stormtrooper set from earlier



●STAR WARS KUBRICK 100% LUKE SKYWALKER(TM)&HAN SOLO(TM) (STORM TROOPER DISGUISE セット) 時期未定 ¥未定

- Probably a 2-pack like others have said - it will be interesting to see if they are the same as the former chases or if they will make them new, giving them "wet" hair or trash paint aps or something.


Confirmed at wonder festival

It's a pity that they appear to have gone for a straight reissue of these figures. At least if there was a different paint app the original chases wouldn't be completely devalued. If this trend keeps up I can see myself losing interst in this line.

Also, any word on a 2010 5 pack? Surely we would have heard by now if there was one on the way...

Wow, nice to get Han/Luke out there for those that missed them, but pretty bothersome to offer up HTF chase figures for less $$$ down the road.  I'm still hoping there will be something new about them.

Being one of the few that doesn't have Han/Luke yet, I'm pretty pleased to see this offered.  Hopefully, its available as a mainstream "$30ish" boxed set.  

Did anyone else notice how freakin' big the Gizmo/Gremlin Kubricks look to be?  Maybe its just a trick with the angle the picture was taken but they look huge (wide) compared to other Kubricks.

If the Han/Luke set does sell for 30ish dollars and there isn't any difference from the original chases does anyone think it will leave it open for people to fake the "vintage" ones. Putting an original Stormtrooper leg with date onto the new Han/Luke could make it look like a "vintage" one. I see price crash ahead!

Not sure why anyone would bother.  I've seen a few loose chases going for cheap lately, so if a duplicate 2-pack is released they'll probably all be worth about the same amount anyway.

I suppose, if you add the 2 figures together there's not much in it. I'm gonna try and pick the chases up before the release.....just in case  :). Picked up Luke the other day so just Han to go.

So do these differ from the chase versions at all?

I'll be getting this since I never picked up the Han from before.

Post by: BrentS on August 24, 2010, 12:36 PM
I'm definitely getting these.  I never got the previous chases so they are perfect!

If my math memory is correct, the approximate US retail on this pair would be about $30?

Assuming the usual US markup and shipping, I would expect closer to $50 shipped.

Cool for people who don't have them, neat set.
Always loved Han and Luke as Stormies.
I never had the POTF Luke as a kid, but remember thinking it was very cool because I loved that part of the film.
I have the 400%s, I'm happy with those.

Pre-order up already



Slightly more expensive than the 3PO/R2 boxset.

They're also available at Amiami (http://www.amiami.jp/shop/?set=english&vgForm=ProductInfo&sku=FIG-KAI-2103&template=default/product/e_display.html) for 2340 yen (20% discount ~ $28 USD).

I can't figure that site out.  What is the cost with SAL parcel shipping?

i know no one has this set yet, but does anyone know if there are any differences from the chase figures? I woory if they keep rereleasing chase figures then it will bring down the value of some of the chases.

They appear spot on the same.

I guess SAL shipping will be about the same as the R2-D2 & C-3PO 2-pack (http://www.hlj.com/product/MEDKUB-255) (480 yen).

Nice set. Any MINUTE guy who wants to save on shipping, count me in.

I need to figure out a better way to keep a handle on my collection...  On three separate occasions I went out of my way to post that I wanted to get the new 2-Pack because I never got the Chase Versions:

I never did get the Han and Luke Stormtoopers. Looks like I will be waiting a while longer to see how thus set pans out as well.


Being one of the few that doesn't have Han/Luke yet, I'm pretty pleased to see this offered.  Hopefully, its available as a mainstream "$30ish" boxed set.  

I'm definitely getting these.  I never got the previous chases so they are perfect!

So last night, when I was in the basement getting a box for a package I had to ship, I glanced at my Kubrick case on the wall.  Guess what I saw sitting in my ANH row?  Yep, Han and Luke as Stormtroopers.  I have no recollection of actually buying these two figures. 

I sat and admired them for about 5 minutes, scratching my head the whole time. 

So I guess I'll likely skip this two pack now as I DO already have them.

If you had taken pictures of your collection like I've been telling you for the last year, we might have all been able to point that out to you ;)

I might go after a set of these - still hoping to hear if they are any different from the previous versions.  Want me to order you a set as well?

Looks like these have been released this week in Japan.  Good luck to those trying to track them down!

Spotted these had gone up when browsing the bay last night. Got a set ordered, great for those who never managed to track down the original figs for a good price- like myself  ;)
