Post by: DSJ™ on June 23, 2007, 12:36 PM: Slave1 has 3 pics of the carded Han Carbonite & a bit of a close up of the coin from the Medicom Toy Exhibition, very nice.

This is a side view of the block posted on the Slave1 forum, you can just see the kub inside.

You can really see Han in this image I enlarged a bit from a Yahoo Japan auction.

Post by: mondocoyote on June 24, 2007, 08:37 PM: It's also not quite true that they are guest only toys. When I went to see the show yesterday the guy behind me pulled a lucky ticket and scored the carded kub!

I got given one of these by a friend, it really is the finest carded kubrick so far. Only one small problem is that the coin is not a coin, it's just printed silver on the card.

Post by: DSJ™ on June 24, 2007, 08:58 PM: So you could also have drawn a ticket to get this besides it being a giveaway for guests, any idea on how many were made? Maybe the usual 150-200?

Post by: mondocoyote on June 24, 2007, 10:58 PM: absolutely no idea, sorry

Post by: evenflow on June 25, 2007, 09:50 AM: Thats too bad about it not being a coin, I still want one though. :P

No different from any of the other give-away Kubys - Sacul, Vader, Sandtrooper. All start around $300 and then drift down to around $200-$250 or so with time.

Man, I'm going to need to place a HUGE order with Oscar soon... :P

Post by: DSJ™ on June 25, 2007, 08:27 PM: Yeah, I have to place a large order with Ocscar too. I'll wait till the early fall when the conventions cool down.

It is a cool Brick.
I'll have to rank it with Jorg though, to rich for my blood.
If only I could set my eyes on one thing, but I have too many other interests to justify spending $$ on stuff like this.

If that coin was real I'd rip it open!

Post by: Dan on July 9, 2007, 10:15 AM: Mine arrived last week (Han carbonite)- I really like it, but it is a bunch-o-cash for basically a repaint on a card. I'm rationalizing that it is ok since I have all but ceased collecting Hasbro (I still don't have a coin open).
I'm hoping that Uzay snowtrooper is like the shadow trooper, and ends up being $50-60 when the dust settles.

I got all cloned out, mostly just the film versions I collect and the concept Clones.
I got into the McQuarrie line now though, cool stuff.

I'm with you on the Uzay as well, I'd like to get that one.
