Just announced tonight...January release date.

I just got my Jumbo C-3PO in this week. I really like this one, although he's a lot more of an orange tone than the original 3 3/4 figure. R2 comes out later this month I think, so they'll look great together.
-
Jumbo C-3PO is on www.figureoftheday.com today, for $64.99, with free US shipping. (they only ship to the US right now)

I got my pair yesterday...probably my favorite 2 so far. Vac Metal for the win!!

That's great to hear. I have been passing on these two because I wasn't sure they were worth the price, but sounds like they're at least on par with the rest of the line.

With the possible exception of Chewbacca, these two: C2PO and R2 are my favorite of the line. I loved Threepio by himself, had him for awhile, he's just so gold and shiny, but add in R2 and you can't beat them together.

R2 is on figureoftheday.com today, $70.

Anybody know why R2 costs more than most of the others? Seems like he would be equal or less, but I always see him at $70 or more. I've had pretty good luck getting these for $60 or less thus far, so hoping the price comes down further.
-
My guess is a combination of stickers, vac-metal and the components to make the clicky head. ???
-
Vac Metal is expensive... It's the same reason 3PO costs a little more.

I just bought C-3PO and R2-D2 from mostwantedcollectibles for $138.66 shipped. I can't wait to get these.
I saw R2-D2 at Source Comics today but it was $80. I thought about buyingit but I wanted both droids at once.
-
You really won't be disappointed...great stuff!

Is that the store by the fair grounds? I'm tempted now. Dang you!!! ;)

Stopped in Sunday. Didn't see it. Asked about it and one of the guys said he remembered someone buying it on Saturday. Oh well. Probably a good thing I didn't start my way down the slope.

Nick, if you're seriously interested in these let me know. They are much cheaper to buy online, so I can snag a few for you if you'd like.
-
I broke down and bought C3PO today for $64 and free shipping. I had a pre-order for Greedo, but decided to just swap them given the ongoing delays. Still haven't bit on R2 though...
-
For me, R2 is the most nostalgic. And C3PO is just so darn vacmetal shiny, he's great, you won't be disappointed.
