I got the set of 8 on Friday. I got them from the same seller Adam did. Very neat little dudes.

Does anyone still have a master case yet to come in besides Dale? Still looking to do a Han for Luke Trooper swap.
I don't have a master case but I do have a box coming from hlj.com and if I luck out, I'll let you know.
Jeff, sorry to hear this, it`s one of my nightmares.
Were the boxes of 12 opened, or did you get 4 boxes not in a master case, just
loose?
OPENED, as in the little perforated, pull here to open thing was missing - the box tops were taped shut to the front with scotch tape.
So,
My Kubricks were delivered today via EMS (yes, they were delivered on a Sunday afternoon - weird!).
I ordered a Master Case (at a reasonable price) from one of my asian trading pals but instead of a master case, I recieved four boxes of 12... all of which were OPENED.
He apologized and offered "Sorry I must have mis-understood what you wanted. That's all I had to send you".
Serves me right for not getting my pre-order into RoBBy.jp or HLJ in time. Anyway, I don't think we'll get any chases, because each of the boxes is laid out like Simon's non-chase box description:
BOX:
1. Vader
2. Vader
3. Vader
4. Stormtrooper
5. Stormtrooper
6. Vader
7. Stormtrooper
8. Stormtrooper
9. Emperor
10. Nien Nunb
11. Hoth Han
12. Bespin Luke
I was left with 2 choices - just keep them OR send them back and eat like $80-90 on the shipping cost (since I'd have to pay to ship them back and then he'd ony refund the price of the Kubrick boxes, but not the shipping too).
Since I didn't want to waste the cash, I decided to keep them. At least he did send me back a bit of my money to kind of apologize, so that was something at least.
So, my Kubys are here, but I've only got 6/9 of a set. Guess I will have to go the eBay route and chase those last 3...
Jeff
Yuck! IMHO, they suck! I'm not even going to bother with them.
I love that Bespin Luke has a lightsaber hilt as well as an ignited saber. Just awesome!
Thanks for the info, Tony. I`m guessing I will get Han also, as we both got
from RoBby.
Uh, what Yoda is that?
