It would look nice next to that Jabba the Hutt though.

I'm a sucker for Jabba's Palace, i will probably pick this up.

I've enjoyed my Sideshow Jabba and Throne so much... this is pretty much a must have, for me. I just hope the price isn't as bad as I expect it to be. Maybe the exclusive will be the stuffed tauntaun heads?

I think I'm going to have to get this too.  I was thinking of getting out of the Sideshow game too.

Anyone know how much this is selling for?  Should be good for a laugh...

This could be very cool. Might be one of the few Sideshow pieces that I'll purchase.

Have you not purchased any of their earlier items?  I only have five (Maul, Anakin and the three Obi-Wans) and think they are all fantastic.

Han Carb is up for preorder, $199.99. Jebus!

Makes it a much easier pass now.  Too bad, because I really did think it looked pretty cool.  I couldn't pull the trigger on the throne environment, there is no way I can do this one.

I've got Jabba, Throne, Fortuna, Boush, and the creature packs... so I went ahead and placed the order. That said, I'll more than likely cancel at the last minute and wait to pick this thing up off of eBay. Sideshow is getting pretty ballsy with their prices, given there hasn't been a huge leap in quality and the economy is ****.

I was just looking at this online.  I can now see why it's worth $199.

Im undecided. If it was a carbonite with an actual figure underneath that could be removed from the wall, i would have went for it.

I want to get it eventually, so I'll probably wait to see I can it for cheaper somewhere else.

I've only bought two items, Boushh and a POTA Gorilla Soldier.

As for the Carbonite Environment, it's beautiful, but not $200 beautiful.  :P

It looks cool, but I'm just going to stick with jedi and sith and besides 199 is way too expensive. :P

If anyone is interested, comicsinfinity.com (http://www.comicsinfinity.com/p-26732-preorder-star-wars-han-solo-in-carbonite-12-figure-environment.aspx) has the Han Carb for preorder for $179.99. Saving $20. is better than nothing I guess.

Tempting but methinks I can convince myself that I can just as easily keep using either of my Hasblo Han/Carbs for my Jabba setup

This thing is pretty huge and pretty awesome. I'm trying to figure out how I can display it beside my Jabba.

That thing does look sweet.  I just can't justify that kind of money for that.

Looks really nice Brad. Once you figure out how to display it with Jabba, post a pic.  8)

I feel you, had a hard time justifying it myself. I only got it because I already have all of the Jabba stuff from Sideshow.

Will do. I need to hurry up and post a pic of my desktop.

Okay, here's my SS Jabba's Palace, at the moment. I really struggled to get Jabba and the carbonite side by side. Since taking the photo I've managed to get a little more space between them. To the left of the carbonite is my screen and speakers, to the left of that is the rest of my SS stuff.

And the flash photography has revealed a few orbs, sorry about that. Probably supernatural.
