Looks like Wicket will be a WCC or some other toy show exclusive.
Limited to 2006 figures.

Wow, that came out of nowhere. I wasn't expecting info on series 6 so soon (maybe because I just got series 5 and they seem "new" to me).
I'll attempt a guess at the chase pieces but after Walrusman in a DS Gunner box, I'm probably way off base.
Imperial Officer (from DS Trooper box)
Death Star Droid (from RA-7 box)
another X-wing pilot , either Wedge or Biggs (from Luke pilot box)
-
another X-wing pilot , either Wedge or Biggs (from Luke pilot box)
That was my guess too...

Yep, with maybe a Tarkin!
To squeeze in a Han, maybe Han in AT-ST outfit ;D :P

Good call!

Coolness!!!

Thank god i don't have to buy another 400% . That Wicket is lame. I must say, I'm not too impressed with Series 6. Looks more like a TRU set. The RA-7 is way cool though, and we all knew X-Wing Luke was coming. I can't believe there are no Jabba's Palace figures or any Leias. They're way backed up on Leias. I think the Rebel Trooper and the Death Star Trooper will be the high ratios and the others will be the lower ones. Chase predictions- Biggs or Wedge, Death Star Commander, maybe, cross my fingers, a Grand Moth Tarkin.
-
Dang! I didn't think I would get a response that quickly. I guess the timing was good. I agree that this set looks kind of generic like the TRU sets, but I can see myself getting doubles of almost all of these. I think I will be buying a case or two.

Holy ******* ****! Them are nice. 8)
I can't wait to pre-order these puppy's!
I think there's a show coming up in Feb so that maybe were Wicket will be from. Not sure if I'll get him thus far.
-
These ROCK!!! I knew they would make a TIE Pilot and that I'd have to get it but the rest are fantastic too. How (from what company) do I order the set?
In the past I've just ordered from Ebay (got the DS Gunner for $7 shipped) but I don't know where to get a whole case (or just 1 of each)...
-
Wowzers, great set! Star Wars Kubricks, still going strong.
They busted out some great choices too! All from the first movie...who would've thought?
-
Always nice to see some new Kubricks pop up, thanks for posting everything. I keep telling myself that I'll have to drop my plan (hope) of continuing into this line further, and I thought I was convinced, but then I see some new figures and it gets tougher. I actually like the Luke X-Wing quite a bit, and the others look nice too. A Wedge or Biggs chase does make sense too, but its hard to guess after the Han Endor and Walrusman chases the last time around.
-
This is why I love Kubricks… not a flop figure among them and the attention to detail is so perfect!
I wonder if Luke will include his "hair piece" for display without wearing the helmet?
Edit: probably not since the chin strap is painted on the face.
Chase Predictions: Grand Moff Tarkin, Captain Antilles, Death Star Droid, CZ-3
-
Wow, I've been wondering when news of series 6 was going to show up. They look fantastic. No real "core" characters, but they're all welcome additions. Hopefully the tie pilot, fleet trooper and death star guard are more then 1 per case, cause I want to get two of each of them.
-
I am not a Kubrick expert at all but what is up with that Wicket? By the way the other figures look really nice IMO. But Wicket looks like something from another line than Star Wars. Is it?
-

Wicket is NOT a Kubrick, he is a Be@rbrick.
It is another line that Medicom makes. When he was originally released in that line as a regular figure, he was an uber-chase figure (1:192).
Here is the orginal version with his box:
(http://www.slave1.jp/image/20031221-03.jpg)
Somewhere in our many Kubrick threads he is discussed... let's see if I can find the linky.
-
Here's the page for the Series 6 Kubricks on Medicom, but I can't get the Japanese translated to get a release date, it doesn't seem to display properly.
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/1-06/Kubricks6MedicomPage.jpg)
-
Over at KW, they are saying June for a release date.
So... June-August for them I would guess.

Yeah, I just found the
same info (http://www.kubrickworld.com/coppermine/displayimage.php?album=55&pos=0):
The fans can rejoice! Another great looking set of Star Wars figures will be available June, 2006.
-
So from the original 12 vintage figures, we now have
Chewbacca (EB)
R2D2 (EB)
Leia (EB)
Luke (EB)
Han Solo (series 2)
Jawa (Series 2)
Tusken Raider (Series 2)
Obi Wan (series 2)
C-3PO (series 3)
Stormtrooper (series 4)
Darth Vader (series 4)
and now....
;DDeath Star Trooper (AKA death squad commander) (series 6) ;D
I may have to get a mastercase this time around...
-
I love Medicom website update day... especially when there is so much SW news.
On the topic of Series 6, it does sounds like June will be the month, but we all know how that goes so July is more likely for release and I'm sure August will be the month most of us get them in our hands. :)
As for the choices, I think they are pretty good overall. Two Imp troops and a droid, Two rebel troops and a droid. I'd have to guess that the cases will be heavy with Luke and TIE Pilot, maybe one of the troopers too?
Here was my wish/guess list for Series 6:
Series 6:
1. Luke X-Wing Pilot (3:12) w/Wedge Antilles & Biggs Darklighter Chases (1:48 each)
2. TIE Pilot (3:12) w/DS Trooper Chase (3:48)
3. Walrusman Wuher (1:12)
4. Hammerhead (1:12)
5. Grand Moff Tarkin (3:12)
6. Garindan (1:12)
Looks like I get two off my wish list (Luke and TIE Pilot) and a bonus DS Trooper I thought would be a chase (didn't think they'd put two army builders in there at once let alone 3). Not too shabby, if I do say so myself. :P
As for the chases, well I hope they pull another "Ponda Baba"-esque random chase on us. I'd love to find a Hammerhead in a TIE Pilot box this time around. He's the last of the Vinty Cantina Aliens and my Ponda, Greedo, and Snags are lonely without him. ;)

Okay! Gotcha!
-
I would love to see a hammerhead and Garindan. I was just ranting on the bust-up page earlier about chase figures, and was trying to put myself in a zen sort of mode- only collecting what I find and not going crazy to find/buy/bid chase figs. Well, put those two out as kubricks, and say goodbye to plan zen.
-
The only impressive piece in this wave is X-Wing Luke. The others are needed for a complete collection of character, but they're nothing too exciting. I hope there are some cool chase figures. Maybe a Han Solo with Medal this time?
-
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/1-06/Kubricks6MedicomPage.jpg)
My favourite is definitely the TIE Fighter Pilot, but having 3 army-builders is very cool. Luke is great too, but it would have been nice to have another "main" character instead of one of the droids, just for some balance.
BTW, I've never heard the 5th one called RA-7. He'll always be the Death Star Droid in my mind. ;)
-
Thats cool, no big names in this wave, I am hoping for some cool chase figures.
-
Great ANH line-up, I would have liked to have seen Hammerhead there too but oh well. Hopefully he and Tarkin are chases
here was my wishlist a few years ago (minus prequel figs which we know aren't coming any time soon
Series 3 (Return of the Jedi)
Emperor
Emperor's Royal Guard

Boussh (Helmetless variant)
Snowtrooper
Bespin Leia
Lobot
Scout Trooper
I'll also throw in to my wishlist pot:

Luke Skywalker (Hoth)
Princess Leia (Hoth)
Ugnaught
Ree Yees
Yakface
Tessek
Barada
Klaatu
Nikto
Amanaman
-
After this wave we'll have nine Luke figures (counting Luke as Vader) and seven Han figures. Luke has caught up nicely.
-
I can only think of 8 Lukes (counting Dagobah Vader). Which is the 9th?
EB
Stormtrooper Disguise
Ceremonial
Bespin
Jedi Knight
Endor Luke
Luke/Vader
X-Wing
The master checklist needs updating after today news 8)
-
Carded Blonde although its sort of a fine point
And, Luke (14) had many more outfits than Han (10)
Farmboy
Stormtrooper
X-Wing Pilot
Ceremonial
Hoth
Bacta
Snowspeeder
Dagobah
Luke/Vader
Bespin
Medical Frigate
Jabba's Palace
Endor
Death Star II
Cantina
Stormtrooper
Ceremonial
Hoth
Bespin
Carbon Freeze/Hybernation
Carbon Block
ROTJ General
Endor
AT-ST
A couple of those are really pushing it (ROTJ Han without Robe, Ceremonial)
-
Luke had another outfit in ESB which he wore twice.
Once after the Bacta Bath and again aboard the medical frigate
Plus, during his Dagobah training he had the "wife beater" outfit… that would've made a nice chase for the Bespin Fatigues Luke
-
I really like this series even though there are no major figures. I guess the chase figures will include a Degobah Luke (bring the Luke count to an even 10). I have no idea about variants and so forth, related to these figures. But last time Ponda Baba was in a the Death Star Gunners box so we are probably in for some great surprises.

Further proof Ewoks are lame :P I needs me a Fett, but I sure don't need that.
I'm ruminating on the wave 6 figures. There's nothing there I don't like but there's nothing there that really has me going yeah!. I like the Tie and Luke a lot and like droids in general, but the rest while nice, just don't have me pumped. I can think of a few others I'd like to see anyway. Chase should be neat though and I'm very pleased to see them all from Star Wars.
-
I wonder if they're bold enough to make a bacta tank with Luke in his undies.
-
No idea for chases here, just looking at the figures...
B-Wing Pilot, A-Wing Pilot, AT-ST Driver, AT-AT Commander, Power Droid? (http://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/a050.gif)
-
If the chase figures are related to the normal figures this time, then I'd guess:
Luke - Wedge or Biggs
Rebel Trooper - Antilles (the guy who Vader choked)
DS Droid - Black variant?
-
Carded Blonde although its sort of a fine point
And, Luke (12) had many more outfits than Han (10)
Farmboy
Stormtrooper
X-Wing Pilot
Ceremonial
Hoth
Snowspeeder
Dagobah
Luke/Vader
Bespin
Jabba's Palace
Endor
Death Star II
Cantina
Stormtrooper
Ceremonial
Hoth
Bespin
Carbon Freeze/Hybernation
Carbon Block
ROTJ General
Endor
AT-ST
A couple of those are really pushing it (ROTJ Han without Robe, Ceremonial)
What's the AT-ST Han? Can't remember that one though I can guess it was Endor. How about Mynock hunt Han? That's reaching, I know. I'll bet the S6 Chases will be from A New Hope.
-
wow! the new set looks awesome..some more imperials to add to my collection. Matt- do you need some monitary help going in on a case so I can get those Imperials? ;) 8)
-
AT-ST Han (http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?direct=Collectibles/Modern/Saga/Basic_Figures/04-19_Han_Solo_(Endor_Strike))
Han wore this during the Endor Battle (although some would say not the whole uni)
Chewie steals the AT-ST and walks it up to the bunker where Han and Leia are, Han says he has an idea and the next shot is from inside the bunker where an AT-ST pilot (Han in disguise) comes on the screen and says
"It's Over Commander The Rebels are fleeing into the woods"
-
that Luke X-Wing pilot figure f###ing rocks! ;D
-
"It's Over Commander The Rebels are fleeing into the woods"
It's actually:
"It's over, commander. The rebels have been routed. They're fleeing into the woods. We need reinforcements to continue the pursuit."
:P
Anyway, I don't want a Han in AT-ST gear. There is no proof that he was wearing anything but the helmet.
-
There is also no proof that he wasn't wearing the uniform. Chalk it up to EU ambiguity, its the last Han I would want, but if it meant getting a pseudo-AT-ST Kubrick, then, by all means

How come Medicom can make a decent rebel fleet trooper but hasbro cant???
This series totally rocks hard.

Heck he's probably not wearing anything under that helmet. Han's a little disgusting.
-
Ok, someone please help me here. It looks like Toys Chameleon charges about $73 US per case and shipping to the U.S. is around $30. My question is, do they charge more for shipping multiples cases? I was trying to add 4 to my cart (making a master case) but it wouldn't register on the checkout page, so I wasn't able to see if shipping would increase.
Also, if anyone has websites that they suggest preordering this series from, could you please let me know since the only cases I bought were from BBTS here in the U.S. How much do the cases typically cost and how much is shipping for a mastercase? Can you use credit cards to preorder or do they require prepayment for international orders?
And is there any way to translate these Japanese websites? Your collective help is appreciated.
-
Haven't looked on here for a day, and I found out the big news of series 6.
Luke is top quality, and I like the army builder figures.
Hopefully, the chases will be Wedge or Biggs and Tarkin.

Sorry, never used them before. :-\
Also, if anyone has websites that they suggest preordering this series from, could you please let me know since the only cases I bought were from BBTS here in the U.S.
Around these parts, I think most folks who pre-order their Kubricks use one of these sites:
www.eBay.com - pretty obvious and where I started
www.HLJ.com - Japan e-tailer, good prices if you get in early
www.robby.jp - Japan wholesaler, but you need to preregister a "retail wholesaler" account to order
www.spanky.co.jp - never used them myself, but others have
www.toys-chameleon.com - never used them myself, but others have
I think toys-chameleon is the only one taking pre-orders so far...
How much do the cases typically cost and how much is shipping for a mastercase? Can you use credit cards to preorder or do they require prepayment for international orders?
By pre-ordering early, individual boxes of 12 usually run anywhere from $65-80. The earlier you order, the better the price. Master cases would obviously then be anywhere from $260 to $320.
Shipping really varies depending on where you live and how much you buy. Probably run anywhere from $30-60 for shipping a Master Caser, depending on if you choose SAL (surface) or EMS (express).
Most of the places will take a credit card hold to secure a pre-order and then charge you once the stuff ships. Be VERY wary of those who make you pay full price on pre-order. Lotsa people lose money that way because they pay up front and the pre-order is never filled (especially the case on eBay >:().
And is there any way to translate these Japanese websites? Your collective help is appreciated.
I like to use www.babelfish.altavista.com to do my translations...
-
I can give props to Spanky, great seller and easy to deal with.
BUT! I would not get a case of 12 from them, they do sell chase figures,
so they do open a lot of cases. They MIGHT (can`t say for sure) put the dud
boxes on the side and sell them that way if they get the chase figs out of the
first 2-3 boxes from a master case.
HLJ or Toys Chameleon are good too, can`t go wrong with either really.
No matter what, shipping will be up there for EMS, and a lot of them don`t
like to send it other ways. EMS is quick, trackable and can be insured from
what I can tell.

nice pic adam!
where're the ewoks?? ;)
-
Great pics Adam. That's exactly what I want to do with the next series - I've got 6 Stormtroopers and Gunners, so I'd like the same # of TIE Fighter Pilots and Death Star Troopers. Unfortunately I don't have any Sandtroopers since I started collecting these after that series.

I wish I had kept all my stormies now, but I sold some off with Vaders. I never
intended to get a few of each, but it just kinda happened. I got 4 Sandtroopers
off eBay a few weeks ago, wish I could find more at a decent price.
I`m going to need a bunch of Ties and DST too! And fleet troopers! ;D
And same $(#$*@! royal guards if they ever put them out (PLEASE PLEASE!)

Ugh, that would SUCK big time.
So far, I think, Medicom has been great about making all the popular figures
as regular series, and the chase figures are kinda non-essential ones.
If I had just the basic set from each series, I would still be very happy with
them.

NICE! I still need that one. I've gotten hooked on the Bearbricks lately, mainly the Horror ones. I just picked up the 400% SDCC exclusive and the series 10 bear. Ugh, these f'n things are sooooooo addicting...
-
Sithbaker - I wish I would have known you wanted some more Sandtroopers. BigBadToyStore.com had them on sale for $4 each about 4-5 weeks ago and they were sealed! I bought 4 of them hoping to get a white chase, but I didn't. I ended up selling 2 of them and the other 2 are for my collection. They are out of stock now, but that was a great price for them.

I remember seeing it posted here that they went on sale, they were gone
by the time I hit the link though :'(

Well here's what I got in the mail today ;D:
- The Max Rebo Band set from Spanky
- Series 2 Obi-Wan and another Han (for customs) from NCSX
- Another sealed case of series 3 from NCSX also
All I need now for series 2 is Greedo, Tusken Raider and the other Cantina Member. Then i'll be done with all the basic series. Why is that series so damn hard to find? :(
-
I just found my chase Han and Ponda in the mail today ;D - Combine that with my 400% Stormie set (Thanks to Jeff 8) ) and it has been a very pleasant Kubrick week.
Madcow, which cantina band member are you looking for?

What's NCSX?

I need this one:

NCSX is a US company that sells imported Video Games and Toys. Here's their site: www.ncsx.com . They're really great with quick emails and fast shipping. I ordered yesterday afternoon at 2 and had it here at 10 this morning. They were actually sold out of series 2 for a while but I emailed them and they managed to dig up the Obi and Han for me.
-
Can you order figures individually from there or do you have to get a case (12)?
-
It says you can order individual figures, I would just send an email and tell them what you're looking for. Really nice people.
-
For those that are a member, check for your e-mail from Robby.jp gang. Series 6 is now up for pre-order! I got mine in. ;D
Roughly 6864 yen or $59.00 US per box of 12 or $236.00 US per Master Case.
Your order must be placed by Feb 18th!
-
I was planning on just ordering one box, but those army builders are so cool, I may have to go with a master case instead to be sure I get enough of everything.
I have to give Medicom credit for this wave - surely they've heard that army building is very popular right now with Hasbro's figures, so they've provided that opportunity with the TIE Fighter, Death Star Trooper, Rebel Trooper, and even Luke X-Wing if you like to pretend he's just a generic X-Wing Pilot.

got my first carded kub today. luke. it is minty fresh and now i have to see that a new series is out soon. aaargh, must work more overtime!!
-
Just grabbed another box of series 4 from Toynk in Chicago. I had won a couple of other things from him, so shipping was basically free. They don't always have what you are looking for, but if they do, the price is usually right. That means I can get my last stormtroopers in line where they belong.
-
I dropped in my order at robby.jp just now, nothing like dropping 54000 Yen so early in the morning. :P
I ordered two master cases again this time. Just like last time, I plan on keeping one for me and one to break up and sell amongst my local friends/addicts.
It seemed to go very well last time with robby.jp - great service, great communication, fast shipping - so I'll gladly use them again this time. 8)
-
Order is in with robby.jp for me as well ;D
-
Ahh, I wish I could get an order in with RoBby...
-
I ordered two master cases again this time.
Well, I just upped my order to four Master Cases so that I could help a certain someone out with his addiction...
I feel it's only fair since he helped me start down this Kubrick road to ruin. :P ;)
-
Thanks Jeff :-*
-
lets jst hope the HK / Japan variants are equally distributed so those who get 2 MCs can get the complete sets..
-
A big thanks to Dale for helping me out with the Robby's hookup.

Your Welcome Matt. :)

Ordered my Master case from them this morning. Can't wait to find out whatt he chase figures are. ;D

Nice looking collection! ;D
I started the registration process with Robby on Friday, but haven't heard back yet. I really want to get myself into a mastercase this time around-
-
I got rejected by Robby's. I would say you should expect to be as well, unless you can prove through your membership that you can move large quantities of toys.
However, Founder at Kubrickworld is taking orders....guess he is going to preorder a bunch from Robby.jp, and split shipping costs with everyone. Check it out:
http://kubrickworld.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=2682

I'm also pre-ordering cases of 12 at $90 if anyone is interested. (Founder is cheaper, though.) My deadline is Feb. 10. Let me know.

I started the registration process with Robby on Friday, but haven't heard back yet. I really want to get myself into a mastercase this time around-
Or, you can go to the MN thread where someone is offering to help the locals (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=8670.msg196957#msg196957) who can't get into Robby. :P

Anyone still looking for Series 5 stuff?
I've still got these left-over from my "extra" Master Case:
Star Wars Kubricks Series 5 Figures - Mint in Boxes:
2x Series 5 Set of 7 (Jedi Luke, Yoda, Slave Leia, Ackbar, Red Snag, Gunner plus extra Jedi Luke to display cloaked)
9x 6x Series 5 Death Star Gunner
9x Series 5 Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker
Send me a PM if you are interested... ;)

Yes, but he's my favorite whore at the moment, thank you very much! ;D
-
Don't worry, I PM'd him last night to call him a whore privately before doing so publicly ;)
-
I've decided I'm not going to but a Master Case for myself this time. It works out to be much cheaper and easier to buy the set complete with chases. Although I don't have to go the eBay route, so I have a bit of an advantage to the eBay buyers. However I think it would be much easier to get a complete set off eBay, rater than be stuck with all those extra. Hopefully the Tie-Fighter Pilots will be packed in high numbers for those who want armies.

I'd thought about this too Simon. The $270 or so for the complete set is about the normal ebay price, vs around $300 with shipping for the master case that leaves you shy one of the 1/48 chase figures. So the total jumps to around $400 or so and then you can subtract off the set costs and sell off a box and then deal with the extras later.
I did ok on my case. Thanks to this site I managed to leave a full sealed box that I got $90 for. Sold two sets off at cost and now only have 2 spare Luke's and still have the spare Han chase as well. My cost ended up below the ebay cost, but higher than yours. Not bad for where I am though. And it's nice to be able to keep some extra figures if they're army builders or have a removable helmet or cloak and such. The price per unit is then pretty low.

Woo-Hoo!
Guess who the postman delivered today!
(http://www.jedidefender.com/jsmentek/kubricks/droidr2.jpg)
Minty-mint card and bubble! Took me a while to wait out a good price, but I finally got one for less then the average price (and to make sure none of you jokers bought it out from under me, I kept my yapper shut about it :P).
Feels good to finally add him to the collection - Luke, Holo Leia, and Droids Fett were getting lonely without him. Now the only question is what to go after next - Series 1 Chase Fetts or Carded Sandtrooper/Vintage Fett? :-X

Nice score Jeff, he looks really good. 8)

Well you'll be fighting me for the red/yellow gauntlet series one Fett if you go that way. He's on my list, as is a cheap/damaged carded Luke and a 400% Fett for a decent price. That would bring me up to date on all I want for Kubricks. No carded stuff for me thanks.

Well you'll be fighting me for the red/yellow gauntlet series one Fett if you go that way.
I was considering it, but I think I'm leaning towards saving my pennies for one of those "uber-rare" carded figures. Thinking about starting with the Bape Fett since I could technically kill two birds with one stone haveing the carded and not the loose version.
-
Yeah, that would do it. I've already gone back on my word when Kubricks started - no chase :-X Yeah, well :-\ But I'm close, I can smell it. I just need to get up the gumption to drop $180 on a loose Kubrick :'(

Someone posted on here a month or so ago about how to pick the chases out of a master case with openning as few boxes as possible. Does anyone know where that's at? I think it would make a good read.

Check around page 130 or so.
Each series someone posts a master case breakdown, pretty much spot on for
the most part, with some cases a little different.

Last call on these - I'll be throwing them up on eBay this weekend if no one here is interested...
Star Wars Kubricks Series 5 Figures - Mint in Boxes:
$60 - Series 5 Set of 7 (Jedi Luke, Yoda, Slave Leia, Ackbar, Red Snag, Gunner plus extra Jedi Luke to display cloaked) - 2 available
$7 - Death Star Gunner - 6 available
$7 - Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker - 9 8 available
Buy any three individual Kubricks and shipping is free (set of 7 qualifies for free shipping), otherwise shipping is extra and is not included in the prices listed.
Send me a PM if you are interested... ;)

Thanks again for the extra gunners Jeff- my imperial army is taking shape (blocky-shape, that is) ;D .
I jsut spent 20 minutes reading through the posts from when all of you guys were getting your series 5 cases. That was some damn fun reading! I'm glad I'm in for a MC for series 6, just to blast through the box! I was luck enough to be interested in these when they first came out, so I got my EB kit right away, and all of the basics from the early series cheaply. I didn't grab the Rebo and endor sets when I had the chance, but eventually I'll get them.
I ordered a blue snag from Spanky's last week. It looks like it should be here tomorrow or monday, and that will complete series 5. I'm going to thin the Hasbro herd a little, and try to get a few of the early Kubrick items I'm missing. I can live without Logray and VC jawa, but those early fett chases...

I'm actually not surprised at those prices Dale. Logray is in huge demand and is as rare, if not rarer that both of the Fett Variants. And especially the fact that there are some fakes around, people will pay that much from a seller with a good reputation.
As for the Rebo Set, those 2005 are running really thin now. I really think that most of the collectors that have a hold of these harder-come-by sets are not giving them up as readily as they were 2 or 3 years ago.

Thanks for the help guys. I got my master case of series 4 yesterday and found out that the Luke Stormtrooper chase figures are packed differently. They are both behind the Bespin Luke and Hoth Han, whereas the other cases had all 4 regular Stormtroopers together. There was no way to tell where the chase Vader was though.
Just to let you guys know, I have a ton of Kubricks I will be selling off soon. One of which is the Logray chase figure. I will be taking it to eBay though because I need to get as much for it as I can. I am going to Italy in April to see my brother and the plane ticket was $850! The Logray is still sealed in the plastic wrap. If you guys remember I got the last 3 cases from BBTS and I was pretty lucky to pull that one.
I have sets of series 3 and 4, extras from series 3 and 4, chase Logray, chase Luke/Vader, chase Luke Stormtrooper x2, a Marvel series 3 set, Marvel series 3 extras, a Kellogg's series 1 set, and Kellogg's series 1 extras. Let me know if any of that interests you, with the exception of Logray since he's going to the Bay. I will list some prices very soon.

AFA kubs? What a racket.
These are new toys. They come boxed and double bagged. They look new. I put a sticker on them saying they look new. Now give me an extra $50.00 ::)
I freed blue snaggy from the plastic yesterday, ahhhh. It looks like they used the DSG legs on him, other than that just a straight up repaint of reddy. I would be worried about these being bootlegs (no pun intended) soon.

Just looking at the pics of Series 6 and reading back at some of the old lists, maybe the next couple of waves are movie specifc as well. For empire we could get:
Snowtrooper
Ugnaught
Lobot
Bespin guard (lame)
Hoth Luke
Hoth Leia
21-B
Bespin Leia (chase)
for ROTJ:
Royal Guard
Biker scout
Rebel commando
Gamorrean Guard
Ree Yees
Imperial Dignitary
Chase Holo Yoda
The Empire list looks kind of weak, but that flick didn't have the diverse life-forms that New Hope and Jedi had. I can't see them making a probot, wampa, or tauntaun. Any other ideas?

kubricks on the bay have been going crazy, and I may have to rethink how many of the older chases I want to pursue, if any. Just a reminder that I picked up my blue snaggy from Spankys, and it went smooth as could be. That $116.00 or so is looking like a bargain now, so check with them if you are still hunting big blue.
I am glad to see the AFA auctions all sitting without bids (except a lone darth, and hopefully that buyer wises up and realized he can get it for a third of that price, shipped). I can't wait to see the auctions start for the AFA blue hologram figures. :D

And as a reminder, here is who I have counted on my tally list - if I forgot anyone, please let me know ASAP (since I obviously forgot). Thanks!
Master Case #1 - Jeff

Master Case #4 - split between jedijaybird/spacemantis/JediMAC (plus one box of 12 still up for grabs)
Master Case #5 - still up for grabs

Jeff, if no one bites here, try over Kubrick World. Thats a lot of $$$ to get stuck

Just know you people are responsible for Jar Jar Binks. Know that. Live with it. If you can.
There is no way cute little furballs armed with primitive weapons spawned the jibba-jabba spewing catastrophe that was Jar Jar Binks...
-
Not true.
Prior to ROTJ there was no marketing genius in the form of something cute and fuzzy that little kiddies and girlfriends would like and feel sorry for.
ANH started nasty and kept going - first thing you see of humans is a bunch of RFT's that are about to be massacred by blaster fire or had their neck snapped during interrogation. The rest of the movie is less violent but nothing cute and furry in there.
ESB is even darker, for the most part with the slaughter of infantry (i.e. Hoth troopers) going up against monstrous AT-ATs. Oh sure, they had some support in the form of snowspeeders, but that's like putting cavalry up against tanks. Nothing really cute and fuzzy in the movie, save a Wampa and a Tauntaun. One gets it's arm chopped off, the other smells bad and gets its guts flayed open with a light saber. Nope, can't market that to the kids/ girlfriends.
ROTJ is fine, until we get the surrealistic battle between a buncha friggin' teddy bears and the Imperials. Yeah, yeah, I get the allegory between good and evil, belief and imperialism. Yada, yada, yada. But be honest, those things were supposed to be Wookies. Big, ass kicking wookies that ripped arms out of sockets. But they couldn't find enough big guys to play the roles, so they went with "little people" and that brought out the marketing ploy of having valiant little teddy bears.
Fast forward to TPM - here's Jar Jar, a bumbling, harmless guy that's ultimately heroic if only by accident. He's cutesy. He talks in a manner that is funny to the kiddies and maybe even the girlfriends who aren't quite so obsessive as their quasi-normal, if not overly geeky (at select times only, of course) boyfriends. He's comic relief. But he's also primitive in a sense and facing overwhelming technological odds. It's the same damn thing as the Ewoks. The Gungans got bigger, but they were supposed to be cute, primitive and something people would cheer for, just like the Ewoks. The problem is they miscalculated and Jar Jar wasn't nearly so cute or funny to most people as they thought. But the allegory was still there, same as the Battle of Endor.
There is no way cute little furballs armed with primitive weapons spawned the jibba-jabba spewing catastrophe that was Jar Jar Binks...
You don't want to believe it, but it's true. When Medicom finally loses its collective mind and puts out a Jar Jar Kubrick, you will buy it. You have to, because you're part of the reason that it will even exist. :-*

To add insult to injury, I hope Jar Jar becomes one of those rare chases that you have to fork over a ton dough for just to get the complete series! ;D
j/k

Not true.

I see your point, but R2 and Yoda were sooo marketable in the cuteness field...
And if Medicom starts making prequel stuff i'm not buying it. I never really cared for the prequels and never will. Hell, the only prequel character figure I ever bought or owned was Darth Maul and that was because I thought he was cool looking...
-
And I'm mostly kidding.
Well actually, no, I'm not, at least not about the evolution from Ewok to Gungan (and the downfall of the trilogies during ROTJ and TPM ;)). But I'm not seriously upset about the Ewoks coming out of Medicom in this line, in spite of how much I may hate them. And I'm sure not upset with anyone here about them or the fact they like them. Oh sure, you and Adam are forever big losers in my eyes but I wouldn't worry about that :P ;)

There's little I enjoy more than watching Brent get worked up about Ewoks. Hell, the only reason I have an army of the Kubrick Ewoks was to take a picture to piss him off. :P

Can someone give me the 30 second version of how to post a pic?

You have to have the picture hosted on a server that allows outside access. Once that is done, you'll have an address for it...like www.xyz.com/picture1.jpg. Then you use the img tags with that picture:
[ i m g ] http://www.xyz.com/picture1.jpg [ / i m g ]

I haven't pre-ordered yet. I can't decide what to do - I'll likely get beaten for this, but I was considering dropping the Kubricks. With me focusing on Sideshow's stuff, I'll be spending a handful already. Perhaps I should just order a box of 12 and decide later? :-\

I`d order a box of 12. This way you won`t pay more later if you decide to stick with them, and you can easily sell a sealed box if you decide to drop them.
-
Consider yourself beaten, you heretic >:(
Seriously though, Sideshow is a huge chunk of change, though you might want to check prices at Robby for those as well ;)
A box would be a good idea, though I'll say this, ordering a set, so long as you have the patience to do so, isn't a bad idea, off ebay later down the line. This series is bound to have some surprises but you never know. They might not be that hot this time around, or they may be even hotter.
-
If I look predatory here it's because I am. If you drop lemme know first I wanna some Kubies. You know I can furnish HTF goods here in the States for trade Jesse ;)
-
Or you can skip robby.jp or HLJ (and the fees they charge you poor Canucks) and turn to your favourite Minnesotan to hook you up with a single box of 12 or basic set of 6 from his multi-Master Case order. :P

yeah.. thanks for posting the live auction buddy... I ended up winning he R2 but I probably paid so much because of you... ::)
-
Looking at the bidders, I would say most of them had been watching the auction anyway.
I wasn`t bidding, but had it in the watch list. As a rule, I usually only post BIN auctions, or
if someone is looking for a certain figure, I just PM the auction to them.
-
its cool.
i've been looking for a Droids R2 for months so I just bit the bullet and kept bidding.
-
Woo Hoo! I just got my 400% Wicket in! Now to wait for Boba which i'm hoping will be here today... ::)
-
I'm really wishing I had a camera with me today. No matter though, I'm more than pleased to announce that Series 1 is now wrapped up and I've a funny little bluish Boba Fett sitting here beside me. 8)
I think all I'm missing is the following:
Some stupid Ewok with tons of fakes floating around ::)
The second box set, replete with a stupid Ewok :-\
Opener carded Luke with brown hair
All it all, nothing overly pressing. A nice feeling, to say the least.
Now I'll box it up with the rest of them and see it in a year or so :'(
-
Yes, a pic would be nice before they hit their cardboard prison. :)

Congrats on finishing Series 1. Must be nice to just be done with it so you can save your pennies for Logray and Ewoks Wicket. :-X
I'm still debating on whether I need those chase Fetts... :-\
-
You need them, trust me.
Logray won't be much of an issue for me. If I could get a legit version for $50 I'd be alright with that, but won't pay more than that, rare or not. It just doesn't mean enough to me and the risk of a fake is so high.
The second box set from TRU I'll probably break down and get in time, though I'm hoping for at or below retail on it. What was retail price on that one?
-

I think TRU boxed sets were 36-40 retail. I see them for $39 BIN now and then, plus
$15 or so for shipping.
The chase Fetts are great! I wouldn`t own them if I didn`t get a good deal though,
at 170-200 each, just way too much for me. Logray has gone way up too.

i jst won a bape carded fett for 220.. but kinda wary cause i was outbidded in the last moments and had a bid retraction after.. checked the bidder and he's from canada too and he doesnt buy toys.. the seller is *monkey business*.. kinda suspicious now.. but anyway i've asked for pics before the auction ended and he didnt send me any.. now i won and i'm asking for them.. if he doesnt give me or i'm not satisfied after i see it, am i wrong not to pay him?
-
I had that auction on my watch list to see what it would go for, now that it has ended something does not look right about it. The bidder bathingxchimp has bought a couple of things from the seller last year & I also checked the bidders bidding & he has bid on some other auctions from the seller.
I sense a red flag here, maybe bathingxchimp (http://cgi6.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBidItems&userid=bathingxchimp&completed=1&all=1&rows=200&sort=3) is a shill bidder. I could be wrong tho. :-\
Also the seller is asking for the winner to apply 4% for the final amount which is against eBay rules.
Payment Surcharges (http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-surcharges.html)
Not permitted:
Charging an extra fee to use a credit card instead of a check.
Charging an extra fee to use PayPal.
-
Ebay seems to be getting out of hand lately. I just lost $145 in a non starwars related auction, and that was after I filed with paypal to get my money back. I have been totally staying away from buying SW on ebay, to many liars out there.
Mint condition C-10 Perfect!!!!........You finally get it and it looks like an hippo sat on it. That is the usuall for me. Sick of it.
-
he replied to me and say he'll have pics up for me. i jst pray that the card and bubble is good and he hasnt done any touch-up.
as for the extra charges, can i complain to ebay? :P
i dun really mind the shilling, since its a couple of dollars more but jst everything to be alright.
anyway the reason that bathingchimp gave for the bid retraction was 'he couldnt pay with paypal'.. what BS..
-
Hey Tan,
What a bummer. Its a sure shill and it stinks to high hell. BathingChimp and MonkeyBusiness, and both from Canada??? But what really stinks is the way he did it.
1.) BathingApe bids 225.00 at Mar-25-06 04:41:46 PST.
2.) The bid is cancelled by Monkeybusiness at Mar-25-06 06:13:25 PST (in the last twelve hours the seller is the only one who can cancel)
3.) Inexplicably BathingApe immediately bids 220.00 again at Mar-25-06 06:14:52 PST (1 minute later and the exact amount needed to max out Tan's bid).
I'd say call him on it. Tell him you feel cheated by this other bidder and that you want the card at your previous high bid of 191.00. If he accepts, is cordial and can provide pictures, then maybe risk it; either way report him. Very blatant and not cool.
-Scott

i know.. i'm waiting for his mail with pics to me.. then i will see how it goes.. thanks anyway.. i'm quite happy i got some kinda of support to not pay for this.. haha..
i also reported to ebay abt his charging for paypal..

Tan, I think you should get this for the lower price too. He wasn`t even very
sneaky about the shill bidding, what a dope! If you feel uneasy at all about this
one, I`d back out of it. With the shilling and asking for paypal fees, he probably
won`t even neg you. Sometimes I really hate eBay!
-
i got a email from him. he's going to post me pics on monday. i'm going to email him abt the shilling bidding, see what he says..
get back to u guys.. :)
anyway even if he offers it to me at a lower price, i would be quite worried too..

Same guy that had to withdraw his bid on the Fett, now bidding on this one.
I thought he couldn`t pay according to his reason for retracting his Fett bid?
Honestly, I would kill the deal right now and get out of it if it were me. Make
sure you send eBay all the info too.
-
I agree with Adam, there are red flags all over this. If he retracted his bid because he can't can't pay with Paypal the other 2 bids he had should have been retracted too & to top it off he has won some auctions that I listed above which were Paypal auctions & he bid on them & won way before the Fett.
I would back out if I was you. :-\
-
yeah. i think most likely i will back out.. unless he offers it to me at 100 bucks. hee
i saw the bid on the vader vinyl too.. how silly is this fella.. still no replies from him though..
bathingchimp and monkeybusiness.. he sure love names associated with primates..
-
Well, he bid it up to $80. I feel like emailing the buyer and telling him to order from Sideshow for $50! Shill bidding at its best ::)

'Hi, you mean the other bidder right!
that bidder can't pay with paypal, i don't accept money order, so i
must
cancel his bid before the auction ended time. I understand what you
mean, he
try to bid again after i cancel his bid as I can see, I will try to
contact
bathing & will report that guy to ebay. Also, I will send you the photo
tonight.'
this is what he replied me..
-
OK, wait. The seller cancelled the bid because he only accepts Paypal, no problem there.
So bathingxchimp bid $225.00 Mar-25-06 04:41:46 PST, then the seller cancells the bid Mar-25-06 06:13:25 PST.
Then bathingxchimp bids shortly after the cancellation twice, Mar-25-06 06:14:52 PST for $215.00 then Mar-25-06 06:15:11 PST for US $220.00.
You bid $220.00 on Mar-24-06 21:15:52 PST.
Those 2 bids from bathingxchimp should also be cancelled which would drop the price down to your $200.00 on Mar-24-06 20:43:25 PST.
It looks like you bid the $200.00 then came in twice with a double proxy me thinks. One at $205.00 then another at $220.00 I think.
Am I seeing this right, does this make any sense? :-\

its freaking tempting.. he's from canada, maybe i can get his address.. see if anyone can help..
-
Sellers from Richmond, BC. One province over, I can't help you on that.
So he offers $193.50 & it's Paypal. Hmmm, if you do go for it & it turns out to be a bust you can always complain to Paypal & hopefully get your $$$ back if done in the time frame.
Did you also see the Questions from other members (http://contact.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ShowAllQuestions&requested=monkey_x_x_business&iid=6044901809&frm=284&redirect=0&ShowASQAlways=1&SSPageName=PageAskSellerQuestion_VI) on the auction?
It's all up to you yujun on how to proceed.

yeah. now i'm waiting for pics.
he's using EMS too. so should be fast. within a week.
will let u guys know again. i'm jst surprised he'll willing to drop to 193.50.
i asked abt removing the 4% paypal charges too. see what he says.

Tan,
You can start the paypal payment procedure and see if they offer you "buyer protection" insurance. This will give you a good idea of whether they will be able to help you in a pinch. Normally, if they do not offer the buyer guarantee on the auction page or during payment, the only way they can refund you is if he happens to leave enough dough in the account when you dispute. I personally would risk it seeing as he seems to shill on all auctions but in the end deliver, judging by his feedback history. 193.50 for a carded Bape Fett with bubble intact is just skating the line between deal and "too good to be true."
All I can say is, "Do you feel lucky.... well do ya?"
-
haha.. thanks scott. u're really helping things :P
i will wait for pics.. those who wish to help, pls pm me ur email so i can send it to u..
i havent never been lucky with ebay.. 3 fake lograys didnt help.. :-\
-
This is definately fraud, and ebay should be removing both user-ids from the site.
I would back out on principal. This guy is a crook. There are plenty of non-crooks to get our fixes from.
Even if he dings you with negative feedback, once his id is closed, it will not count against you.
-
i saw the pics and the bottom of the card looks severely damaged. i asked for a close-up one but he didnt want to provide. 193.50 was his best price anyway. he didnt answer any of my questions regarding bathingchimp. anyway the deal is off. he was quite nice abt it. no ranting. jst say he'll keep the kubrick and hope to deal again. :P

This was probably the best way to go, especially now that you know how
beat up the card is. You can get a loose one for a bit cheaper! lol

yeah. i get to save money.. i wonder if he'll relist the auction.. maybe under bathingchimp this time.. :D
-
i saw the pics and the bottom of the card looks severely damaged. i asked for a close-up one but he didnt want to provide.
So the 1st pic in the auction is not the same as the carded figure he has, that Boba looks to be in pretty darn good condition. This might explain why the other 2 pics are cropped off at the bottom.
You did the best thing by backing out yujun.

Just a heads up, he has relisted this item.
No new pictures and I didn`t see anything about the card being damaged.
HOWEVER, he will not take bids from anyone in Singapore now... lol, Tan, you
got him scared of Sing. bidders! :D

Lol, yeah way to screw it up for the whole country Tan! Just kidding, you did the right thing... I can't believe he is being that harsh and deceptive at the same time. Quite hypocritical...

I figured he would relist it, but was hoping he would have better pictures.
My faith in eBay sellers is yet again diminished (sp?).
Now we have to watch and see if bathingchimp bids again to drive up the price.
Then fire off an email to eBay!
-
its ok. i've saved the whole of singapore! haha.
but seriously, i think that sucks. wat a petty person he is.
i still can give him a feedback.. or should i jst leave it?? :-\

You could blast him , but then he could do the same thing to you calling you a deadbeat bidder. I would just leave it be unless he does it first then it's no holds barred... ;D
-
We should post this whole mess over at KW too, in case someone over there
was eyeing up the auction.
Since he didn`t make you pay, and didn`t leave you a neg, I`d leave it
be. As MC said, if he negs ya, then you get to open a can of singaporian
woop ass on him!
-
I haven't posted in ages. There is alot of good goss on here recently.
That seller is just shooting himself in the foot. You just prove that bidders are alot smater the most sellers take them credit for. Maybe someone should "shadow" bid (I think that is the term) him to teach him a lesson.
-
i hope no one bids and if bathingchimp bids last minute again, it tells us we're right!
-
Hard to say if bathingchimp will bid on it, it might not happen this time around now that the seller knows you ask a question on him. We shall see. ;)

Boba is back up already! I wondered why it was up again so soon, didn`t know
that it got pulled. I`ll have to see if his PayPal thing is still in there. Also, I think
the BIN price he quotes in the auction went up, I think it used to say BIN 240, now its 250.

Well there is a bid on it thus far & I noticed that it's a 3 day auction. Monket business still accepting Paypal but it not listed in the description only in the seller's payment instructions at the bottom of the page.
Please remember (4% total amount).
::)
Nice set up Adam, looks great. 8) Stormtroopers O'plenty! :o
-
Nice Pics-
I sent ebay a notice about the 4% fee as well. I figured it was the least we could do since we knew about it. Although I was secretly hoping this would be a multiple infraction and we wouldn't see him again.
One problem is that ebay makes a portion of their money based on the final selling price. This creates a minor conflict of interests, as they make a little more when the shill bidding is successful. I would like to see them be more aggressive in these cases. It's not like they are in danger of losing money.
-
i dun get it.
why does he get to relist the fett again and again?
doesnt he even get banned for some time??

If I'm spending $200+, I want it to come from a reputable dealer. I bought all of my carded figures from people I knew or people who had great on-line reps.
It's too much money to just risk it with a loser that no one has heard of, as this auction and this guy have proven. ;)

true true. i wanted to give this guy a try in the beginning. but when he didnt send me pics and he was so willing to lower the price, i knew something was wrong..

bathingchimp is bidding again... >:(
-
Keep an eye on it...
I went through this guys feedback and looked back at his previous auctions. Every item he sold, bathingxchimp was a bidder, usually second place. I only went through about 10 of them, but that was enough to report to ebay.
-
Scroll down and you see where bathingxchimp's solitary feedback comes from and it would seem he was unable to pay for that item he won. Oops. Nothing like giving yourself feedback, I suppose, and positive at that, even when you can't pay ::) (sorry, on closer inspection it's not the only feedback, but it is the difference between being a net zero and having one positive feedback).
Odd too that bathingxchimp didn't bid on this item (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=11484&item=6838926839). It seems like something they'd have been dying to own ;)
edit: ah, I see, they bid on some cheaper items along the same line near the bottom of the feedback. Well, that's reasonable. Pity they never win, that must be so disappointing.
-
And the one he did win and "couldn't pay for" was a whopping $16.50. I'm sure the guy who came in second got a "second chance offer" and felt oh-so-lucky.
Remember: just because we move in flocks, baaa at everything, and are targets for potential fleecing doesn't mean we should sit still when the shears start or the wolf comes sniffing around.
If ebay doesn't pull this guy, I will contact the winners of his previous auctions to alert them to the bidding histories on their auctions as well as the others. Ebay will soon be deluged with complaints. All of these winners should be entitled to a fraud refund for the difference on the final price as if "bathing chimp" hadn't entered a bid.
-
That's a good idea, I'd be willing to help contact some folks as well.
-
Unreal. I just emailed eBay about this auction too. They aren`t even trying to be sneaky about it for God`s sake!

Well, at 9:00 last night they still hadn't pulled the auction. I emailed the other bidders to let them know what his bidding histories looked like on his other auctions. I can't access ebay from my work computer, so I can't check to see who won or what it went for-

$177.50.

another logray.. seems kinda common these days. compared to the jawa..
anyone won the last one? was it real?
-
Has anyone seen the new Star Wars Insider, its got a picture of Series 6 with chase figures. The ones pictured are TArkin, Tie Fighter PIlot, Luke (X-Wing) Wedge, Death Star Commander, Rebel Fleet Trooper, R4-M9, RA-7, and Imperial Commander. Very cool. Was hoping for a Royal Guard somewhere though.
-
REALLY!??
Any way to get it scanned? I don`t get to see the insider very often. This is a first, I don`t
ever remember the chase figs being announced or shown so early.
TARKIN!!!
-
That is awesome news! It sort of sucks they are announcing them early, it was always sort of fun to see who they were going to make next
-
Here's a quick photo
(http://www.yakface.com/jayson/series6kubs.jpg)
-
Well, I am excited about the officer and Tarkin, but a Royal guard would have been light years ahead of a near look-alike rebel pilot. Dang, I was really looking forward to the frenzy of finding out the chases as people were ripping into their cases.
My bricky death star diorama will be getting loads of props in just a couple of months....
-
Thanks for the pic :) Like Scott, not liking the release of the information early. Maybe they're just minor chase figures? :-\
-
Interesting picture, Medicom does not really release what the chase figures are early. We usually wait are until the initial day of release whether it be eBay or Yahoo Japan or other sources. That's the way it's been from the beginning of these series.
Could Tarkin & the Imperial Commander possiably be for a future release?
-
I am almost positive they are Series 6, even chase figures need to get LFL approval, LFL didn't know the secrecy usually involved and passed on the shots to the Insider. I like all three, even if they are a bit on the boring side :)
-
WOW.
I guess most people thought those were going to be the most likely chases (I know that I had already guessed Wedge and Tarkin), but dang it is strange to see them pop up so soon.
This announcement, while very cool, just made Kubrick Series 6 release day a whole lot more boring... :(
-
;D A mention on the front page, thats actually pretty awesome. Thanks for the mention. ;D
Anyway, I think the whole series 6 is pretty boring in general, but i am still looking forward to them all.
-
Well if these are the chase figures then I guess the fun of waiting & finding out when the time comes is gone. :-\
-
Great pic!
I don`t mind knowing early. We get all frenzied up and usually know before we get them
in hand anyway, thanks to eBay, Yahoo Japan, Slave 1 and other sites. Now to nail
down the ratios and box placement (Simon usually steps up for this, which is awesome!)
-
I'm surprised so many of you are bummed to get the Series 6 chase news so soon... Hell, the more Kubrick news on upcoming/chase releases, the better, as far as I'm concerned! I guess the element of surprise waiting 'til the day of release is diminished, but it was cool getting a peek at three new SW Kubrick figures in here today (thanks Jayson!).
Bummer to see the chase figures continue to be important secondary characters, as well as popular army builders now. :-\ I long for the days of different colored gauntlets or varying band instruments. Much less challenging/expensive to nab the chases back then.
I can only hope that a couple of these are more along the lines of the Han/Luke Stormie chases, rather than the Logray/Blue Snag/Ponda chases of late.
Great figures though, as always. I definitely dig the 3 new choices, though including them in the regular Series 7 would've obviously been much more preferred. Oh well, I didn't really need my wife anyway... :-X
-
And since they kept all of the chase figures consistent with the "A New Hope" theme, maybe the December series will be ESB- snowtroopers, glorious blocky snowtroopers...
-
That is great. Tarkin and Wedge rock! I was hoping for a distinct figure for the 3rd chase...Imperial Commander is an awful lot like the Tarkin figure. But oh well, those are some interesting choices to say the least.
-
And since they kept all of the chase figures consistent with the "A New Hope" theme, maybe the December series will be ESB- snowtroopers, glorious blocky snowtroopers...
That would be AWSOME! I can`t wait for snowtroopers and hoth rebels.
Then next year, there has to be a Jabba wave. Gam. Guard, leia bousch, lando skiff, maybe a bar-too-d2 (heart attack if it had the pop up saber!).
-
I like all three, even if they are a bit on the boring side :)
Agreed. I would like the Tarkin but watch that be the uncommon one...
-

Seems like that is the natural thing to do.
-
I'm not normally into Kubricks, but I have to agree, a Red Guard, or even a Blue one would be beyond Kickass. Are they only available by internet or mail, or can you get them retail too? I know TRU had something similar for LOTR...or were those minimates?
<--hates being a NOOB with anything:(
-
They're not available at retail, Richard - at least not in North America/Europe. They're all from Asia (Japan & Hong Kong), so you have to get them from folks out there, or on eBay, or from a few of the e-tailers that carry them.
As for the Blue Senate Guard, it's highly doubtful at this point since they haven't done a single Prequel Kubrick figure yet... 8)
It'd definitely be very cool to get at least one more ESB and ROTJ wave, with 9 figures per. Man, that'd be quite a nice way to round out the line if it's coming to an end any time soon, as a few people have speculated. I'll have to think up a wishlist here for 9 more from each OT sequel movie...
-
Thanks for clearing that up :) It explains why i've never seen them in the stores. Too bad sideshow doesn't distribute them too <sighs>
-
At the rate I am able to find things at retail stores lately, I'm GLAD they are an import only. It makes my life a lot easier knowing they will be on the boat, get in the plane, ride the truck to Jeff's house, and then I can get a fantastic PM telling me the good news. Not a single trip to the gas station. ;D

Alright, here we go for my wishlists if the line ended after two more waves from ESB and ROTJ...

1. Snowtrooper
2. Hoth Rebel Soldier
3. Hoth Luke
4. Hoth Leia
5. Bespin Leia
6. Lobot

ROTJ:
1. Royal Guard
2. Gamorrean Guard
3. Skiff Lando
4. Biker Scout
5. Endor Rebel Soldier
6. Bib Fortuna
* General Lando
* Leia Boussh
* Weequay
Honorable mention: Jabba (somehow), Yakface, Klaatu, Ree-Yees, Squidhead, Ishi Tib, Hermi Odle, Oola, Yarna, Amanaman, EV-9D9, 8-D8, Barada, Imperial Dignitary, Mon Mothma, A-Wing & B-Wing Pilots, General Madine
Man, I didn't realize how many more we still really needed! Gotta get all those honorable mentions made too...
Speaking of which, honorable mention for one more ANH wave: Biggs Pilot, Dodonna, Power Droid, Uncle Owen, Aunt Beru, Hammerhead, Wuher, Dr. Evazan, Hem Dazon, Tonnika Sister(s), Muftak, Kabe, Bom Vimdim, Myo, Feltipern, Dannik, Kitik, Boshek, CZ-3, Wioslea, etc...
Yep, that should just about do it. 8)

Oh Dan. You stole my thunder. :'( I am looking forward to getting the new figs still though.

As for the best one, there both good IMHO. Get what you can only afford.
-
I like both 400% Fetts, but I do prefer the more Jedi (more expensive) version. The blues they used and the unique weapon make for a little more striking piece. But they are both very cool, and if they are not side by side I don't think the differences are that big of a deal-

I do really like the little ewoks. At first, maybe because Wicket was so common, I didn't really have an opinion either way, but seeing them all together makes them a bit cooler.
Now I'm thinking we need a Teebo and a Chief Chirpa to round out the set... maybe they can be the next TRU 5-pack with Warok, Lumat, and Wompus thrown in there. ;)

http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-Wars-Kubrick-Series-2-Indiana-Jones-CHASE-RARE_W0QQitemZ6054116943QQcategoryZ48972QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
someone here?
For some reason I think it is, but can`t remember. Over on KW someone asked about the seller to see if they were OK.
Indirectly, yes – I’ve been a resident lurker here for a while! I have to say this place is a vast source of invaluable information. I’m clearing out the bulk of my Kubrick collection ( :'() to make room for more Sideshow 1/6 and 1/4 PF pieces. Just don’t have the space or the funds to keep up with everything. Since I haven’t been contributing here regularly, I didn’t want to put a shameless plug in one of my first few posts!
-
Hmm, maybe my ESP kicked in when I thought it was a JD member... I guess I`ve
just seen your auctions before or someone with a similar username.
You have some good stuff, thats for sure!
-
Yeah, I’ve probably been outbid and outbid other members here myself so it would be of no surprise if my ID was familiar! Thanks, it was a tough decision let them go as I was only a handful of figures away from completing the collection – I’ve got a bunch more to list too. I decided to keep the 2 R2s though. Oh, if anyone is interested in the acrylic cases, they were made by Oscar – His individual acrylic cases for the boxed Kubricks look awesome for those who keep a set sealed as I did.

would u allow overseas bidders for ur auctions? :-\

Not a bad price on this carded Boba Fett (http://cgi.ebay.com/Star-wars-kubrick-boba-fett-carded-BOBAFETT2007_W0QQitemZ6052381566QQcategoryZ48972QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem).
totally missed that one.. ard the price that monkeybusiness sold his.. ;)
-
That case does look pretty cool. I open all my stuff, but if I didn`t, I would need
me a few dozen of them for sure.
What do they run? I`m wondering if it would be decent alternative to the Medicom
ones. They are cheap though, 2-5 bucks usually, when you can find them that is..

Hi yujun - Unfortunately due to a long string of bad luck I only ship within the US these days. Sorry about that.

The cases were pretty cheap - I believe the batch came to around $6 each. Excellent quality, nice clean round edges. Oscar's work is top notch. They aren't good for loose Kubies, as they are one piece except for the "floor" wich slides out to allow the box to be inserted from the bottom.
-
Yep, that's Oscar's style on those display cases. He makes the best cases around, I have to get some of those for the sealed boxes & some for my other Kuby's. ;D

Do you guys think $279.99 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6053687121&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1) is too much for both chase Fetts and an original Fett?
I am contemplating trying to scoop this up today but could not find completed auctions with both chase Fetts to determine if this is the going price.
-
Great price. I sold a Yellow Gauntlet Fett by itself for $259 a few months ago.

I`m with Tony on this one, that is a great price. The least I have seen these go for in the past few months was 180 or so EACH. I think a lot of the time, when these auctions have both and get very little to no bids, it is because someone just needs one
or the other, not both. I got a great deal on mine, if not, I still wouldn`t own these puppies. Getting harder and harder to find too.
-
Thanks for the feedback, I'll be bidding on this.

I agree, it's a very good price. I paid about that for the two chase Fetts separately without the regular included.

I concur. :)

$289.99 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6053687121&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1), a little more than I want to pay.
Kubricks are both joy ;D and pain :-X.

Boy, ain't that the truth. Those chases are a killer on the wallet.

Hi, could someone kindly post (or PM me) a link to the Buy / Sell rules on the forum? I have a bunch of Kubies for sale (for the record I'm a fellow collector and not looking to make a killing) which I would like to offer to you guys first but don’t want to post in the event that it might be in violation of a B/S rule. -Thanks-

Nice Kubrick story on the front page Jeff- I'm looking forward to series 6 just a little bit more now. I would imagine we will start seeing these things show up overseas later this month? Or is late June more likely?

Late June is the scheduled release date, so.... probably August before they are
actually out ;)
-
And hopefully we'll get a preview of Series 7 at the June update. That's what happened last year. I say we're getting all Empire Strikes Back figs for Series 7. Maybe they'll throw us for a loop and do all Jedi figs but I think they'll do all Empire figs. If they continue doing 23 figs a year the series can't last longer than a couple more releases. Comments?

Unless they're just trying to run out the vintage/OT stuff before they go into the PT line.
-
I take it back. There are around 48 vintage figs still not made. Medicom will come up with some tributes to the Hasbro line so add a few of those. We probably have at least up to Series 10. Hopefully, they won't make ANY prequel figs.

Ugnaught
Leia Hoth
Hoth rebel soldier
Of course they could always hit us with a Hoth boxed set with Luke, Leia, and Tauntaun. Aren't we about due for a boxed set?

I think the Droids/Ewoks series would look great as kubs (as long as they don`t cheap out like they did with Wicket from the TRU II box set, nasty!).
Still need to break down and get me a Droids R2 at some point..

Does anyone have a nice clear picture of Logray and the Vinyl Cape Jawa?
I have someone looking for them for me in Japan, and want to give them some good reference photos.

I would like a Senate Royal Guard, to go with the Imperial Royal Guards.
and Jango. ;D
-
Ugh, no prequels please, at least not for a very, very long time. I know some may like them, but it will signal the end of the line to me. As much as Ewoks pain me, they are indeed a large part of ROTJ and a significant portion of the vintage figure line. I may not like them, but they have purpose. Now, I have to go throw up having said that. :-X
I'd dearly love to see them do a Droids lineup and wouldn't even complain if they re-released R2 and Boba for it. I'm dying to get a droids 3PO and Vlix would simply and absolutely rock 8)
Kubrick Droid lineup:
R2-D2
C-3PO
Boba Fett
Vlix (Sise Fromm chase)
A-wing Pilot (Thall Joben chase)
Kez Iban (Tig Fromm chase)
Series VII - ESB
C-3P0 (with Removable Limbs) (Ugnaught chase - Japan/HK split blue/purple smocks)
Cloud Car Pilot (Bespin Security chase - Japan/HK split for black/white)
Imperial Stormtrooper (Snowtrooper) (Veers chase)
Luke Skywalker (Hoth)
Princess Leia Organa in Bespin Gown
FX-7
-
Before the line ends, there are a few things i woul dlove to see. A Jabba the Hutt box set with Salacious Crumb is in the top of my list. I woul dlove to see a Wampa and Taun Taun Box Set. Finally, I too would love some Droids figures: Vlix, C-3PO, Kez Iban, Tig & Sise Fromm.

Tan, I think you are never supposed to have that Fett, worst luck ever!
Did he get back to you with more pics? No pics, no deal is what I would do.
I hope you don`t get Singapore banned from his auctions like you did with Monkeyboyxxxx or whatever his name was ;)

i paid her.. the seller is a she.. paypal put her name as beatrice something..

yeah. i hope for no delays too.. btw, is series 6 supposed to come b4 SDCC??
-
Well, Robby and HLJ are both still saying June 30th and SDCC isn't until mid-July.
They will hit the USA pretty close to the same time as SDCC I'd guess... unless they get delayed of course. :-\
-
Do you think they will be delayed? I know there's a historical precedent, but they seem to have more 'hit the big time' now with better coverage and even the chases being announced early. I'm wondering how that translates to production? My guess would be that the numbers for this series are yet again larger than preceding series' and this will ship on time.
-
What an absolute shocker (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6056977856&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1)! I bid a max of $116.99 with an hour left and said there's no way I'd win this.
What a welcome surprise when I just logged in today and saw that I won. Maybe it was Mothers Day on a Sunday night that did it, who knows.
Finally! Now on to the other Chase.
-
Great price Matt, congrats! That's $8 cheaper than I paid a while ago for it and I'd say just in time. As soon as series VI comes around I'd be willing to bet prices will go up again.
The other is a nasty one, that's for sure. :-X

Holy crapadoodle :o, that's a fantastic price on that one. I guess I stopped paying attention after I got mine but they seem to have come down a bit of late. That $138 version though is odd too. Gotta love ebay and all its quirks.

Just a heads-up-
Monkey_X_X_business is back in Ebay's good graces. >:( No Star Wars items right now, but remember the user ID in case you end up interested in one of his items. (This was the seller bidding up his own items with a second ID, and almost got Yujun's $)

Be warned , you get one , you will want more.

I need to get my Kubrick cabinet in order soon...
Any speculation on box breakdowns? I am thinking the droids are going to be 1 per box of 12, which is too bad because they look great. I think every series has had 3 figures that are one per box, and then a mix of the other 3 (2, 3, and even 4 per box depending). But with 2 pilots and 2 uniformed types (not coutning the chases), who would end up being the other single? I would hope for 3 ties, 2 squad commanders, 2 x wing pilots, and 2 RFTs. but that is just me. Actually, I would rather have 2 of each per box of 12, but I don't think that is likely.
-
I'll guess that it'll be set-up like the Series 4 boxes were:
4x TIE Fighter Pilot
4x Luke Skywalker (X-Wing Pilot)
1x R4-M9
1x RA-7
1x Rebel Fleet Trooper
1x Death Star Trooper
The Tarkin and Imp Officer hidden in the TIE Pilot box (with a 50/50 Master Case split like Stormie Han and Luke were) and the Wedge in the Luke box.

This sounds about right. I wish it would be 2 Tie, 2 RFT 2 DST, but that would
be almost too good to be true. Needs me some RFTs to fight my imperials damnit!

I didn`t figure they would have any new SW up yet. Maybe a convention figure, but
oh well. I hope the Supes is the same cost as the Willy Wonka set. I wonder if GG will be importing these as well, of if they just did the Wonka stuff.

i'm glad the superman set will be available to all and not another exclusive..
there wasnt any 501 legion VCD too in the update.. ???
anyway, why is medicom pairing kubrick and be@rbricks together as a set nowadays?

I think they save some $$$ that way. Same bearbrick for each set, just painted different, right?
Still, I would have loved to have at least a Superman, Lois & Luthor 3 pack, like
the batman begins set. I hope the rumors you heard about a 400% Supes
are true! Them making the 100% is a good sign!

I'm not counting down, but I am desperately looking forward to ripping open those little boxes.... :)
-
Honestly, I`m more excited for the Supes movie right now than anything esle, but yeah, it sure will
be nice to rip into a fresh case pretty soon.
Speaking of which, I gotta get my ass in gear and eBay some stuff, needs me some $$$$$ .
Friggin Medicom! Nothing nothing nothing RAH SUPES, SUPES Kub/Bear Set, SW 6 all way
too close to each other ;D
-
Tatooine and these hitting at roughly the same time is definately going to cause some fund-depletion issues. Not to mention the giant Yoda statue I broke down and ordered.... :P
-
Things are looking good...
I've heard from a few sources and they all said that at the latest WCC show (last weekend), the crew at the Medicom booth confirmed that SW Series 6 is on track to ship at the end of the month. :)
Just a few more weeks!

Sweet! Let the count down begin! 8)

WOOO HOOO!
So DSJ, when the oilers are done in the playoffs, do you go back to your old avatar?

Yup.

Hooray!

Haven't been around much recently, but I'm glad to see the old faces keeping the thread going.
The Medicom Exhibition is coming up soon. I wonder if we'll see another Carded Kubrick on the way as well as an announcement for Series 7. Perhaps a carded Yoda Variation with a snake or something like that. Fingers crossed.
-
Hey Simon, nice to hear from ya. :)
Another carded Kuby, that would be nice. ;D
Hopefully something will come out at the Exhibition. 8)
-
Hi Simon :D
Carded is fine, just no more damn Ewoks. ;)

I hope it isn`t a Droids 3PO, then I would have to get that AND that damn R2 I have been putting off.
Good to see a post from you Simon!
-
A Droids 3-PO would be sweet, I'd love to see that. I still harbor hopes for an entire series or box set based on the Droids though. Not likely, that much I understand, but it would be mighty cool.

Who knows? Medicom seems to be a lot more in touch with our "vintage heritage"... :)
-
Droids C-3PO!! That would be awesome!! Lets get series 7 underway and wait for the next lot to come through. They are a bit overdue already, right?
Medicom have been a bit slack with the Kubricks lately. I hope they get back into the swing of things.
-
A droids series would be great, but i will settle fro a Droids 3PO.

HAHAHA I'm in the same boat as you! I've been putting off the Droids Fett and R2. A 3PO would only make the situation worse...
I'm really hoping for more 400% pieces since they're my favorites or a Chewie variation of some sort. But ultimately i'm a sucker for any SW kubs so i'm sure i'll be happy whatever it may be...

OoHh! Now, Porkins I would probably try for.
The Jorgs, I don`t really care about. I have the regular figure, good enough for me.
-
Sweet！ I'll be off to the exhibition on Sunday to have a nose around. Maybe Series 7 will be there.
I don't like this carded one much. I wish they would stick to the vintage stuff. There aren't many up for sale just yet, but I guess it won't be too long.
-
Check it out. There was a Darth Vader Bearbrick 400% and 100% too!!

Sorry. It is called an Empire Bearbrick.
-
Holy Crap! Turning into a HUGE Meidcom news day! ;D
-
Nice work Simon. It is the 23rd after all. Great news but I can pass on that Bearbrick pretty damn easily.
Emperors Royal Guard
Scout Trooper
Boussh
Lando Skiff
Gammorean Guard
Spirit of Anakin
Let the chase speculation begin...
I'm hoping it's not a blue royal guard as it would signal the beginning of prequel stuff.
Imperial Dignitary in Royal Guard box
Snowtrooper in Scout trooper box
Lando general in Lando skiff box
Wonder how many previously released figures I just listed...
-
And Series 7 is on the Medicom Web site!!!! Yeah!! ;D
(http://www.medicomtoy.co.jp/WI/upimage/060624_6a.jpg)

AWESOME!!
Can`t wait for pics, the site seems to be down right now :-(

According to the Website the Empire Bearbrick sold for $50 and will be sold exclusively at the Medicom 10th Anniversary. It doesn't say anything about production numbers.

Just posting this in case the Medicom site drops off agian...
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/3-06/series7.jpg)
Sure wish there was a bigger photo!
-
;D Great news indeed. Royal Guard and a Gammorean guard is incredible news. I hope the Spirit of Anakin is Sebastian Shaw. I want the carded Sacul, wish it was a droids 3PO though. I can do without the bearbrick.
-
I'll go so far as to say that I that it is the best series since Series 1. 4 of those figures were in my top 10 as a kid.
As for the chases. How about a regular Anakin. Maybe they will make it 1:10006 to match the rarity of the vintage one. :P
-
I'm thinking we could see a Ree Yees or Bib chase in that series 7 set, possibly an endor trooper. I hope they save the snowtrooper and endor trooper for a regular release, otherwise getting 1/2 a dozen will be out of the question.
I can skip the bearbricks, and Jorg too.
-
It's pretty cool they included a "spirit" figure in the basic release. I wonder what the count per figure will be.
Hmm... Spirit of Yoda has got to be available at some time.
I'm thinking we could see a Ree Yees or Bib chase in that series 7 set, possibly an endor trooper. I hope they save the snowtrooper and endor trooper for a regular release, otherwise getting 1/2 a dozen will be out of the question.
Good call on the Bib & Ree Yees chase possibilities. Maybe a Klaatu, Nikto or Barada could be in there too.
-

Yeah, this is a great series - nice to see Jedi get so much love after series 6 was ANH based.
And, with that, here's my Series 7 Wish List:
Hoth Luke (3:12) w/"Wampa Damaged" Luke Chase (2:96)
Hoth Leia (3:12) w/Probot Chase (2:96)
Royal Guard (3:12) w/Imp Dignitary Chase (1:48)
Skiff Guard Lando (1:12)
Gamorrean Guard (1:12)
Squidface (1:12)
Hey, I got 3/6 of my Series 7 want list - Thanks for listening Medicom! :D
-
I guess as to the chase figures
Imperial Dignitary in Royal Guard
Bib Fortuna in Gammorrean Guard
Spirit of Yoda in Spirit of Anakin
-

I'd definitely prefer the snowtrooper be a regular release as well. I'd like to have the chase figures generate some interest as the one's for series 6 don't have me all that fired up. Aliens are good, humans not so much. Spirit of Yoda as chase figures would be fine for me, though I could go for a regular Anakin a la POTF as a chase figure, that'd be neat.
My expectation is with Medicom's leaning towards classic SW stuff, the Anakin figure will indeed be Sebastian Shaw. I'll be quite disappointed if not.
-
Wow, a pretty nice looking series there. And once again I am reminded of how I should have gotten in on these from the start ;).

Ree Yees and Bib would make great chases! Squid Head too, heh.
Maybe Klatuu Nikto and Barada as the three chases like Jaybird suggested.
ALl good choices!
-
I hope this wave inspires them to do a Jabba the Hutt box set very soon!
-
I keep hoping for that every time there is a new show announced (WCC, WonderFest, etc).
I'd love to see a Jabba Box Set - Jabba, Bib Fortuna, Salacious Crumb, and Oola!

I`d be happy with just Jabba and Crumb and a nice slab for him to lounge on.
Oola and Bib would just be icing on the cake! Crossing my fingers that this set gets
made someday.
-
This the greatest set yet... ;D

With some of the other sets they've made, I can totally see this as a possibilty...
-
I agree - best set since series 1. Particularly loving that Gamorrean.
Seriously thinking about tracking down a Jorg Sacul. It would be my first carded Kubrick and will probably open a ton of flood gates.
-
man, wallet is gonna take another direct hit. i already ordered a case of series 6 ...i tend to agree with the rest of you guys though, this set is fantastic and probably the best series yet next to series 1 (and maybe series 2). i can't wait to see what the chase figs are in the set...
-
Despite my interest in finding out what the series 7 chases are, I hope they keep it under wraps like they used to. I doubt releasing the chase information before hand increases sales, so let it be a surpirse.
That Jabba set would be fantastic. I hope they make it a TRU exclusive and not a festival one. The TRU sets are available in enough quantity to keep the secondary market prices reasonable ($10.00 a brick or so). That Rebo band set me back a ways...
-

I agree 100%, the anticipation of the chase figures was a big part of the excitement.

(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/3-06/series7.jpg)
Wow, that's definitely an incredible lineup there (except for the Ani Spirit). Glad to see Medicom indeed turn towards ROTJ for this series, as they were overdue to spread the love in the direction of the final installment. I'll have to go dig up my ROTJ wants list (and maybe even my prediction for this exact series), and see how I did... I know 5 of those were on my list, just not sure if they were in my Top 6, or not. Just great to see many of the better remaining choices all get knocked off in one fell swoop!
As for the chases, well, it's not really all that fun or worthwhile to try to take educated guesses at them anymore, since the last series or two have had several chases with absolutely no rhyme or reason. But pretending like there's still a connection of sorts to the box they show up in, I'd go with some of these as possible choices:
Imperial Dignitary (likely the vintage version)
Slave Leia (though I hope not, since she's too "main" of a character) Let's just pretend I never said that, thanks. :-\
General Lando
Spirit of Yoda (or maybe Anakin w/ Hayden's head if the one they give us is the original Sebastian Shaw version)
As for the carded Sacul, OUCH. That one hurts sumthin' fierce. The Vader and Boba were tolerable, since we already had those loose, the Sandtrooper was painful, though somewhat easily customized, but this Sacul will leave a ringing sting in the pit of my completist stomach for some time to come... :-\ Cool choice by Medicom though, I'll admit.
As for that Bearbrick nonsense, as the Grumpy Old Man would say, pphhhtttth. I'll leave that sissy girl crap for Scott to collect. ::)
Is this thread long enough yet, or will it reach 200 pages? This is one of the longest threads I have seen! I feel bad for newbies coming here and trying to read them all, lol :D
Just think, I've been contemplating merging all 6 (I think) of our Kubrick threads back together, since there was technically never really a reason to split them apart in the first place (thanks Scott >:(). Then you'd really see one hell of a long thread!
-
New pic, but not much bigger than the last one...
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/3-06/series7_2.jpg)
Slave Leia (though I hope not, since she's too "main" of a character)
Psst. Didn't they already make her (http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?direct=Collectibles/Kubrick/Series_5/Princess_Leia_(Jabba's_Slave))? :P
-

No. You're just seeing things. >:(
:-[
:P
-
Series 7 is amazing! Great line up and I agree its probably the best one since Series 1
I also merged everything together to make sissy boy happy ::) :-*
-
So I figure the obvious army builders are Scout Trooper (4:12), Imperial Guard (2:12), and Gammorean Guard (3:12). Just a guess. I also think we won't see any CHASES from ANH or ESB. This will be a straight Jedi line just like Series 6 is ANH. You never know though. My guess for CHASES are Yak Face, AT-ST driver, (boring, but there's always a boring one), Imperial Dignitaryand maybe a normal Anakin. How about Amanaman? That'd be cool. What's with that Carded Kub? Weird pick.
-
Great looking series - though I could care less about the spirit anakin. Brent - I'm assuming you're getting a MC again?
-
Speaking of, I have 2 master cases of Series 6 left for $370 + shipping each if anyone is interested. (I'll have them carded too but everybody knows that.)
-
Great looking series - though I could care less about the spirit anakin. Brent - I'm assuming you're getting a MC again?
Pretty much a guarantee. I've got you, Jason and R5Don4 down as the series receivers unless I hear otherwise.
Love to see a Yak-Face chase (1/96) for the vintage nod.

Hammerhead
Bib Fortuna
I'll also throw in to my wishlist pot:

***************************************************************
The idea of a Jabba box set is a great one and one that is a no brainer, pack in a Salacious, Bib and Oola and you are talking product of the decade
I also hope for another TRU box set that will help flesh out some of the more obscure aliens
I really think there is room for at least one more Series from Empire Strikes Back
Series 8
Luke Skuywalker (Hoth)
Princess Leia (Hoth)
Lobot
Imperial Stormtrooper (Hoth)
2-1B
Ugnaught
Princess Leia (bespin) CHASE
FX-7 CHASE
Hoth Rebel Soldier CHASE
Somehow we NEED a Hammerhead as well, that is probably A#1 on the must haves
-
Series 7 ROCKS!!!!!! 2 figures that I've been dying for since I started, and the rest are really good too.
Even Anakin isn't bad, even though he is the least impressive.

At least its the old anakin, not that super duper special ed. version of him.
I really think this is the 2nd best set so far, and thats before we know the chases!
Someone mentioned it before, but I really hope the chases aren`t revealed as well.
I really think Insider ****** up putting that picture in there, the Medicom folks probably had a stroke when they saw that :o

I think you are correct sir!
Maybe they were selling series 6 at the show?
-
I went into Newbury Comics today and I saw their "Upcoming Release" Bulletin board behind the registers. The board listed Star Wars Kubricks Series 6 for a July 19th release date (priced @ $17.99 each). It's one of the reason why I prefer ordering via the internet. A set of six (besides the 5-7% sales tax) comes out to $107.94. That's a helluva markup and the reason why I prefer ordering the a case of twelve instead. It was nice seeing an exact shipment date for those though...
-
The box designs look wicked. Great colours.
(http://img193.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/users/7/5/7/9/m_hosino_1119-img600x450-1151133847dscf0096.jpg)
I always loved the little quotes on the box for each Series, which is where my ID comes from.
Series 1 - "He's no good to me dead."
Series 2 - "Chespo kutata kreestan krenko, nyakoska!" (My Fav)
Series 3 - "He's worth a lot to me."
Series 4 - "You don't know the power of the dark side."
Series 5 - "Judge me by my size,do you?"
Series 6 - ? (Does anybody remember it?)
I see that each figure has its own quote on the box this time.
So far...
Luke (X-Wing) - "This is Red 5. I'm going in."
Tie Fighter Pilot - "Its an Imperial fighter!"
Imperial Commander - "This battle station is the ultimate power in the universe." ???(Can anyone read it? I have saturday night beer goggles on and I'm crap at Star Wars trivia.)
-
Woah, cool pic there Simon. Thanks for showing us the new look... Now hurry up and go open some more!
Funny lines there. The TIE Pilot never said that, in fact I think the only line a TIE Pilot ever spoke was "Look out!" to Vader as Han swooped in on the first Death Star. That "Battlestation..." line is from Motti, I think, to Vader or Tarkin on the first Death Star (not from the Imp. Naval Trooper there). Oh well, close enough I suppose...
Enjoy your beer! Kirin, Saparo, or Fosters? :P

Its going to be a long 2 week wait now, ha!
From a post over at KW, they were selling series 6 at the show, one of the members grabbed a set.
I buy fosters when the local place is out of everything else! The only place that sells the really good stuff is over an hour away, we usually get some Belgian ale.

Looks like another RAH figure there on the left. I wonder if it is another SW fig.

Looks like Yoda on the right too. Hmmm

Looks like a VCD Tie Pilot there too

Is this an RAH Boba Fett? It certianly has the stand there.

Wow! This is going to be a big year, That Tie-Fighter Pilot is way cool.

That Biker Scout is awesome.
-
Anyone think that speeder bike could fit into a Kub SW box if it was in 2-3 pieces? Could be 3 Scouts and 1 speeder bike per case. Never know.
-
My brain is on serious Medicom overload now... :o
In the last two days we've had news on a crap-load of stuff:
- VSD Clone Trooper
- VSD TIE Pilot
- Empire Be@rbrick 2-Pack (100% and 400%)
- Carded Parco Jorg Sacul Kubrick
- Kubrick Series 6
- Kubrick Series 7
- possible RAH Boba Fett!
- possible 100% Blackhole Stormtrooper Kubrick!
- possible 400% Darth Vader!
- possible Biker Scout w/Speeder Bike Box Set!
- possible VSD or RAH Yoda (can't really tell from the pics)
Did I miss anything?!?
-
(http://chinese-starwars.com/chineseforum/upload_images/image1069.jpg)
Sure looks like Vader will be the crown jewel of the Kubrick collection
Holy crap what a weekend! With all of the Hasbro and Medicom being announced I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl
-
New Pics!
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/6-06/parcosacul_front.jpg) (http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/6-06/parcosacul_back.jpg)
I'm definitely going to have to track this one down.
-
God damn, that's purdy! 8)
Dale calls the bank, "Hi I need to refinance again!" ;D
-
The best part of the avalance of medicom product news is that it is all good looking. I will pass on a few items (bearbricks, VSD), but the quality is there in everything. Hasbro is too comfortable tossing out 3 or 4 pieces of steaming dewback droppings for every good item. This is why Kubricks and Medicom rock.
-
That Fett does look good dont it?
The 400% Vader is a must have too, sigh so many things so little cash.

Jorg Pilot has hit eBay. :-\
STAR WARS Parco Commonder kubrick!!! (http://cgi.ebay.com/Rare-STAR-WARS-Parco-Commonder-kubrick_W0QQitemZ150001586388QQihZ005QQcategoryZ36553QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
-
What a shock at who the seller is too :P Patience Dale, patience.
I'm kinda disturbed by this, the PARCO stuff doesn't usually drop much in price. At least not into the range of the carded R2 or Droids Fett. I can live without this but still would love to have a loose version.
Any more info on the black hole stormie floating about?
-
Yeah, patience. I always wait. :P
Nothing on the Blackhole Stormie thus far, sure would like to know more on this little guy.
-
I'm liking that it's pictured loose, so that could be great news. I'm just hoping it's not an exclusive of some sort, though it may well be.
-
I'm thinking it's an exclusive but I guess we shall just have to wait and see what more comes out on it. Hopefully soon. ;)
-
I need Sacul and that Black hole stormtrooper. Have we figured out if it's legit yet? Also is that a new speeder bike set?
-
I think the only thing we know is legit is the Sacul. The blackhole and speederbike are still somewhat mysterious at this point. Kinda hoping Simon chimes in with some more info. ;)

I looked in his auction for that too! I thought we`d see 20 jorgs stacked up, lol.
Who is the well known collector? The name looks familiar, but my kubrick overloaded mind isn`t placing it.
-
GBU (Grizzly Bear Underwear) is a Kuby collector, loves his SW. He posts mostly at Simpson Collector Sector (http://p216.ezboard.com/bthesimpsonscommunity71818).

Ahhhh, ok, thats where I saw the name before. I haven`t been on SCS boards in a loooong time now though.
-
Scott knows him fairly well also. I believe G_B_U also was screwed over by Andy Tong >:( Or maybe he wasn't, I don't remember, but he was a name in the whole ordeal.
-
I remember chatting with GBU during that time. Andy Thong (Popsalute), ******* piece of ****! >:(
Well I just looked him up on eBay, Profile: popsalute (http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=popsalute) & he is "No longer a registered user" plus his feedback is private. Good riddance ya piece of ****! >:(

I am giddy with all this Kubrick news, but man i am trying to figure out how to afford it all. ;D

Well I can confirm a few things for you guys, as I was lucky enough to attend the Parco Exhibition today. In the Star Wars Kubrick section, I got a chance to see the Series 7 for my own eyes. They look awesome. An it will be the classic Anakin.
In the Star Wars Section they displayed
Kubricks
- Series 7
- 400% Vader
- 400% Boba Fett (ROTJ Version)
- Bike Scout with Speeder Bike
- Shadow Stormtrooper (aka Blackhole Stormie)
There were also RAH and VCD figures which I will post in the relevant sections.

You are a lucky, lucky fella! 8) D'ya get any better pics than those already out there?
- Shadow Stormtrooper (aka Blackhole Stormie)
What's the story behind this guy? Was he a character from the movies or just Medicom using there 'creative licence' to create an alternative colourway of the standard Trooper? . . . also, any details of how the single figure might be released (could be interesting!)
* Note to self . . . watch original trilogy again! ;)
-
They are part of the Expanded Universe I believe. Check out the link.
Blackhole Stormtrooper Info (http://www.starwars.com/databank/organization/blackholestormtroopers/eu.html)
-
Hey Simon,
Any mention of where the Black Hole Trooper is going to fit? Exclusive? Chase? etc... ;D
-
It didn't have a price on it like all the others, so I am wondering if it is going to be some kind of giveaway item. The Scout Trooper box set had a price of 3129yen on it.
Also I picked up the Medicom Toy Manual. Here is a sample page.

(http://www.ne.jp/asahi/getnood/now/Graphics/jpeg/Other/Medicom_Toy_Manual-b_02.jpg)
-
Very cool book, and as always thanks for the info! ;D
-
Glad you made it to the Exhibition Simon, must have been nice to see all the stuff in person. ;D 8)
-
Hmmmm.. I thought my ears were burning. ;D
Yes, I bought that Parco Sacul, went through that unfortunate business with Andy Tong, and have been collecting Kubricks way before the Star Wars stuff happened.
I'm sorry that I haven't been here before, because in a day of very vile and hatefull commentary on message boards I ran across respect for a fellow collector and some caution before the flaming. Credit to this board and it's moderators. ;)
Not to defend my purchase, but want to share my mindset. I've collected Kubricks for a loooong time. I've used friends with Japanese relatives, Ebay, and retailers. I haven't purchased any previous Parco exclusives as they were esentially the same as the regular release with a huuuuge price tag. I don't know what it was but I said "Oh, hell yes!" on this one. There is another on the Yahoo Japan auctions that is now about $250 so I think I look less like a tard.
My Miditoylarians were tingling on this one... from someone who made his own Han Stormie chase rather than buy one, I hope I'm wrong and Jorg Sacul's all around!
So, is the Biker Scout and Black Hole Stormie heading for the collector club? Not as bad as the Parco give a ways but still a bitch. %400 Vader..... best Kubrick ever! 8)
You guys rock,
GBU (tard who bought that overpriced Sacul)
-
Welcome aboard. Always nice to have another Kubrickaholic in the audience. And you pay what you pay. I just about paid $40 for a bloody bust up earlier today, so who am I to judge.
-
Yes, Welcome to JD GBU. :)
It's only worth what you are willing to pay & boy these guys sure know what I have paid for some. ;D Your like me, get done & over with. ;)
Yes, Brent, patience... patience my ass! :P
-
If you`re happy with the price, who`s to say anything?
Now, if you paid 400 for a Luke Stormie or something, well...
I know this goes without saying, but many many many pics must be posted when Jorg arrives!

Since the info comes from a Kubrick Bulk/Super-Seller, can we consider this a pretty good idea of the case pack?
4:12 TIE Fighter Pilot
3:12 Luke Skywalker (X-Wing Pilot)
2:12 Death Star Trooper
1:12 Rebel Trooper
1:12 RA-7
1:12 R4-M9
I can't wait for the Master Cases to start showing up so we find out who are the "easy" chases and who are the "hard" chases. :)
-
That looks like a logical breakdown.
Either 4 luke or 4 Tie is what I have been thinking/reading.
I think Wedge and Tarkin will be the hard ones, Commander the easy.
Of course, they could thow another in there to F with us :P
-

Funny, according to that photo we're getting Like Skywaker. Sweet, don't forget the lube. ;D
ps. are the chases packed in the figures with the high count? (ie Tie Pilot, DST, & Luke)
-
not always.
Blue snage was in the red snag box last time, and he was just 1 per box.
-
ps. are the chases packed in the figures with the high count? (ie Tie Pilot, DST, & Luke)
Usually, but not always.
For example, in Series 5 Ponda Walrus Man was packed in the DS Gunner box, and the DS Gunner was a 3:12 case ratio. But then, Blue Snags was packed in the Red Snags box, and the Red Snags was only 1:12 case ratio.
edit: Adam beat me. :P
-
Thanks for the info.
-
I'm glad the TIE pilots are 4 per box, but those Luke's are going to be everywhere. Too bad the rebel fleet trooper is a one per box, same for the droids. I'm glad I splurged on a master case this time.
I'm going to have to get a Sacul, eventually.

The extra Lukes wont be too bad. You can display one with and without the helmet. Also with the helmet on they make good army builders. Now we just need scaled Tie Fighters and X-Wings. That's the one area where Medicom lacks...
-
Where can you get these? I wan't some, but i'm lost...

-
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/3-06/series6_box.jpg)
The more I look at this box (with it's Vader head and Mustafar planet), the more I think that I actually would like a series of Revenge of the Sith Kubricks... just one series would cover the higlights quite well.
- Anakin Skywalker
- Obi-Wan Kenobi
- Padme Amidala
- Mace Windu
- Chancellor Palpatine
- Shocktrooper
- Chase "Sith Eyes" Mustafar Anakin/Vader
- Chase 501st Clone Trooper
- Chase Wookiee Warrior
-
Well if they do delve into the Prequel Era you know they are going to kick us in the nuts by making and uber chase Jar Jar.
A figure we absolutely HATE, but need for completionist principle and have to pay $150.00 for. :P
-
It's a nice box art, very displayable. 8)
I would rather see Medicom complete the vinty figures before coming out with any prequel stuff, so many to make yet.
-

Agreed, on both points!
Sooo many more vintage ones to make. I`m not opposed to prequel stuff, I would just rather more OT for the moment.
Clone wars animated style ones would be the **** though. General Kenobi in his armor, Mace etc... gimme gimme!
-
A snowbunny Padme Kuby would rock. 8)
Should be getting shipping notices from RoBBy.jp soon. :)

I can't wait for this series... :)

I really like the new box art, it will look much nicer displayed... As for PT stuff, I actually wouldn't mind if they went that route for a while as I am stricly OT (except for Wookiees) and it would give my wallet a break. :P

:o The profits from those will take care of those master cases!
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme... I need, I need! :'(

Good bubba! That's rediculous!!!

Crikey, that's a lot of Jorgs !! :o
Thats one figure I'll never get...too expensive for my blood :(

I have passed on the carded Boba Fett, Vader, and Sandtrooper, I will not be passing on this one. ;D (I do want the Stormtrooper eventually)

It was only a matter of time before Honorius had his stack of Jorgs to show the world, heh
That commander looks great! I need a few of them I think...

Do we know what box the Commander came in yet?

I think he just pays people to stand in line for him at the shows.
Kinda like some people in the US do at Comic Cons and such.
Of course, the **** over there is just way cooler than anything we get!
-
Do we know what box the Commander came in yet?
I haven`t seen it confimed yet, but I`d say he`s in the Death Star Trooper box.
-
Yeah, most likely either the TIE Pilot or DS Trooper box, with Tarkin being in one of those boxes too.
Lot of pictures of Wedge with the Luke box, but I think that's pretty much the only one confirmed at this point.
-
Woo-hoo!
Dear JLS Toys Inc

hk_apestore just put up some for auction on eBay, nice shots of the box, set of 6 and Tie Pilot, Luke and DST.
Man they look sweet!
He didn`t list any chases yet, waiting to see if he does, so we can get a nice clear pic of Tarkin!
-
We don't know ratios for the chase yet, do we? I presume one rare will be HK while the other will be Japan, but do we know which is which at this point?
-

Nothing yet. Hopefully someone (cough simon cough) will get a case soon ;D

Just to let the people that haven't brought a master case know, you can get a set of 6 for around $45 or a box of 12 for $85.
Seeing as there are loads of different sellers, selling them on EBAY right now.

Just be careful buying boxes of 12 on eBay. Lots of times the sellers have pulled
the chases out of thier other boxes, and know there is no chase left to be pulled.
I usually check recent auctions to see if the seller has sold loose sets or chases.
-
Here are the pics by instinctoy. Takin is in the Tie Fighter Pilot box, Veers in the Death Star Commander box and of course Wedge in Luke's box. He also says Veers and Tarkin are 1:96 and so I guess Wedge is 1:24, if the last boxes are anything to go by. By you never know with Medicom....

Tarkin looks really good. I'm still trying to decide where to get my master case from. I've never been one to pre-order, just can't bring myself to do it.

If anyone is interested, I have an extra Series 6 Master Case coming from Robby (someone backed out on me >:().

Based on that Rank badge (4 red, 4 blue) and the hat, I'd have to agree.

Yeah, but watch the shipping rates from overseas, sometimes they're mighty steep. And $85 isn't all that far off the actual price for a box, whether there are chase figures in it or not.

Maybe everyone is in bed now, but I have my MC and a 6 pack. Its Friday night and I'm going to have my own little opening party. I'm sure it won't rival Adam's effort from Series 5, but I'll get it a crack. Stay tuned.

Here is how box 1 ended up.

As suspected. Box 2 had 2 Wedges in it in this configuration.
(http://www.ne.jp/asahi/getnood/now/Graphics/jpeg/Kubrick/s6-e.jpg)

No chases in the 3rd.

Awesome! Consider me jealous!
Congrats on the General Veers chase! :)
So, I guess we can consider it confirmed that Wedge is definitely 1:24 and Veers/Tarkin are 1:96.
I can't wait for my case to get here! ;D
-
Now you can. Here is Box 4. Another configuration. I'm on the hunt for Tarkin now. I guess Instinct will will quite a few.

I think it was Stealthtank (you still read here Stealthy? )

Oh bad boy. Why are you upsidedown NO 1!! >:( I going to have to open you!!
I wonder why there is always an upside down one. Every case I`ve seen opened had one
like that too. Must be some kind of Medicom secret...

Love the pics of Series 6!! ;D
I honestly can't wait until my box of 12 arrives. This will be my first case I've ever purchased (which I probably should've done awhile ago). I'm keeping my fingers crossed to get a chance to pull at least one of those chase figs...
-
Well, now someon else has BIN Tarkin and Veers, 130 each!
I hope these eBayers slow down and wait a bit, more will come for sure.

Yeah, I'm still around. Wouldn't miss these boards for the world right now. Just couldn't pass up the the two chases at 119; I think they will prove to be somewhat of a deal for 1/96's. I also have some mc's coming from robby, but just did not want to be left in the cold with all the same chases like last time.

Yeah, I'm still around. Wouldn't miss these boards for the world right now. Just couldn't pass up the the two chases at 119; I think they will prove to be somewhat of a deal for 1/96's. I also have some mc's coming from robby, but just did not want to be left in the cold with all the same chases like last time.
Yeah, would be nice if they mixed it up a bit more. I think 99% of us that got from Robby got Walrus Man. I`m down for both of these, just gotta wait and see what I get from Robby first.
119$ isn`t toooo bad, 129 is pushing it (for me at least). I think Tarking will be more sought after than Veers though. Good to see you are still around though!
-
Another Tarkin.
This one BIN at 129.99.. the bar is rising! Once they start hitting more, I think the price will come down some, probaby stay at 3 digits though.

The hype is always there with something new. These will definitley level off around the $100 mark but only time will tell which is the harder to find...
I myself am hoping for a Tarkin, the Veers figure does nothing for me. Worse comes to worse, if I get the one I don't want I can sell it and buy the other...
-
Hey everyone,
I mentioned this over at KW so it may be a repeat for some of you. I think we should keep track of our Master case #'s to see if we can spot a pattern with the chases. The case number is at the lower left hand corner. The number is hand written. I have 6 master cases coming in so I'll try to see if my buyers will let me know which one they got. I'm keeping two cases for carding. Just a thought.
-
I think the chases will go for around $100 initially and then they will increase over the vext few months as they fall into the hands of collectors. Some of the older ones from Series 1, 2 and 3 are going for big bucks these days as we have seen. I think a $119 BIN is market value.
-
Cool beans Simon, congrats. 8) Great picture breakdown, can't wait to see what we get in our Master Cases. :)
-
There is a set of 6 plus all the chase figures for the complete set of 9 for a bin of $304.99 on the bay.
STAR WARS KUBRICK 6 FULLSET9 /W 3X CHASE (http://cgi.ebay.com/RaRe-STAR-WARS-KUBRICK-6-FULLSET9-W-3X-CHASE_W0QQitemZ170003675725QQihZ007QQcategoryZ48972QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem)
-
I wonder how/where these guys order from that they get enough cases to have both chases (rhyme time!)
-
They are all distributed in Hong Kong I guess. They must order like 100 cases or something.
Is it just me, or does there seem to be an awful lot of Veers around. I remember when Series 5 and there were loads of Walrusmen around and then after a few months the Blue Snags became more common. I wonder if the initial shippments come with one chase and later shipments come with the other.
-
Just out of curiosity what does a master case set one back ?
I know i'm gonna fall over when you guys spill how much you guys drop on these things but i'm curious, and when you buy a master and open the lot what do you guys do with the spares?
-
I'm getting my first master case this time around, for $300.00. The way I look at it, I will keep two sets, sell two sets for about 45 each, an extra 1:24 chase will sell for 25-30, and 4 extra lukes will get me an extra 20. that means I will recover about 140.00, meaning I spent 160 for a 1:96 chase, a 1:24 chase, two full sets, plus a bunch of army builders (I likes me them imperials). Of course this is all theory for me at this time, but Kubrick prices are among the most stable out there for star wars collectibles.
-
For Series 5, I got 3 cases and both 1:48 Chases if that helps. I think it has something to do with those case #'s. Hmmmm.
-
Damn having to work for a living!
My case is sitting at the PO till Monday now :-\
-
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One day will kill me, I just can't wait.
These Crackbricks are evil.
-
Just won a Jorg Sacul on Yahoo Japan. ;D
It will end up being about $250.00 after shipping and fees. I think this one will eventually drop from $300.00, but I don't think it will get as low as Vader considering it is a different character.
-
Nice, congrats! :)
-
Great price!
-
Series 6 cases came today. I have an extra Tarkin and no Veers. Anyone want to trade? Let me know.

Got me a Tarkin too!
Man, this set is really great. Rebel trooper is AWESOME!
Luke has a saber hilt with him, so watch when you are opening, don`t want to lose it!
-
Great stuff Adam, nothing like opening those suckers up to see what you get for chase figures. Tarkin... 8)
How was the placement of the boxes in your case compared to Simon's?
-

The layout was a bit different in the box of 12(I think, I opened them too fast! lol), but the case layout was the same.
Tarkin was in the backward box, and Wedge was in the next to it.
It won`t take long for eBayers and such to figure this out, so buy boxes of 12 with caution...
-
Same as the last series if I remember correctly, yeah buying a single box on the bay is a crap shoot.. a big crap shoot. :-\
-
Got a Tarkin in my Master Case from Robby, too!!! :)
(Veers is on his way from Hong Kong.)
Tark came in a Tie Fighter Box from the opposite facing case (like everyone else). It looks kind of like a HK/Japan split with regards to the chases, however its interesting that Simon pulled a Veers from Japan. All of the HK sellers on the bay seem to have plenty of Veers, but very few Tarkins. Time will tell.

Oh dear god! It sure looks like it! (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/faint.gif)

Lol
Sure looks like it dont it :)
Good form
-
I wouldn't open that thing even if I was on the verge of death and that thing was the only thing that would save me...well maybe. ;)
-
Is that an open Jorge Sacul??!!
Yes, it is. One does crazy things when high on the fumes from kubrick-cellophane. Last time, I chickened out and had Bikeridetony send me a custom black pauldron sandtrooper painted with nail polish. No such options this time, I'm afraid.
-
You should have took pictures ripping him off the card. :o
So like are you going to get another Jorg & keep him carded?

Sweet 8) Nice work Scott. I'd love to get hold of one to open. Anyone finds a damaged card, lmk ;)
-

So like are you going to get another Jorg & keep him carded?
Nah, I decided awhile back to open all my carded SW kubs, except for my Bape Fett. I sold my Parco Sandtrooper and Parco Vader, though. My next project is to setup a mini-photo studio in my office to take some nice high quality pics.
-
Same for me, all are loose. Never bothered with the Parco's before this point though, because they were duplicates in Vader and the Fett. Sandtrooper was a bit of an issue, but I'll live without it.
-
Some kubs prefer to be displayed on a card, though.

Haha, lemme caption that pic ^
What's this world come to!?!? People are not only switching Hasbro figures, but carded Kubricks and returning them too? ::)
But really, if I ever get my hands on one of those Kubricks it'll stay sealed until the end of time :o
-

Ditto! ;)

I've kept anything I've bought MOC since I started collecting back in '96. The only exception I make now is for any type of Kubrick and that includes the Star Wars line.
While I haven't been lucky enough to score any tough to get chases or special figs like the Jorg, if I happen to get a chance to pull a chase or purchase one of those special figs, they'll be happily opened put on display with the rest of the counterparts on my shelf. ;D
-
I believe mine is sitting waiting to be picked up at the post office (damn holiday). Once i get him tomorrow he will remained sealed ;D
-
StealthTank, that is awesome. The opened Jorg, and the pic with Papa Smurf in there. Congrat's to everyone who has gotten their series 6 cases so far. Mine will be here tomorrow, should have been today, but it's a holiday.
-
So do you guys buy master cases rather than pay the $100+ for chases on ebay?
It kills me that this new wave is so cool and imperial heavy, let alone the awesome chases. Snaggletooth or a poncho Han I can live without but knowing that there are Imperial officers I could have in my collection is a little too much to bare.
-
I brought the chases, as you cannot always be sure to get the chase figures from a mastercase. Esp as there seems to be a split between mastercases sent to Japan or Hong Kong.
-
Welcome to JediDefender konakazi. :)
Series 1 was the only set I bought as a box of 12, I ordered 2 boxs but one was for Brent. I was lucky to pull a ROTJ Boba chase & bought the other online. The rest of the series were all MC's, never had a problem pulling the chases out tho series 4 was the only one I did not get I think it was a Luke chase as I open 3 boxes & the other went to the US sealed. I did manage to get him from that other box. 8)
So it works for me that the hunt is on just for one chase figure for the set, pretty happy about that. :)
Well I had to move some stuff into my parents place this morning as I will be taking over the house in the near future & when I returned, I missed the Postal truck by 45 minutes. I can pick up the parcels after 5pm today. I'm looking forward to opening these suckers up. ;D
Matt B, stand by. ;)
-
Thanks for the welcome, DSJ! ( love your icon )
So where do you guys get these master cases? How much are they? Do you just sell off your duplicates on eBay afterwards?
Sorry for the inevitable rookie / n00b questions... :P
-
Some people get them from Hobby Link Japan (HLJ) (http://www.hlj.com/index.html) & others from RoBBy.jp.
HLJ will run around $91.26 US plus shipping per box of 12. Minus 5% if you get in on the Early Bird preorder speical. Kubrick Star Wars #6: 1 Box (12pcs) (http://www.hlj.com/product/MEDKUB-218)
RoBBy will run around $60.00 US, normally $91.36 US per box of 12 plus shipping & handling cost plus 3% on credit card payment charge. Based on todays rate.
Anyone can order from HLJ but from RoBBy, you have to be a dealer (store) or your out of luck.
I know this thread is long but have a looky through the 409 pages & see how we progressed through this line. :)
-
Both my MC's arrived today, it was worth the trip to the PO but customs was a killer. :-\
$46.61 on both, $8.00 was the handling fee but it was all on one slip.
(http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i306/DSJcdn/Kubricks%20Series%206/KbricksMasterCases.jpg)
Now to pick a MC & open it up, the other will remain sealed & will be rerouted to the US. :)
-
Well look at that, a box turned around. ;D

Great news, hopefully that means mine will arrive on Friday. If it doesn't make it here by then, it's going to be a depressing weekend.
-
Hopefully it will get to you soon Brent. :)
Wow, the new boxes are nice. 8)
I went for the box that was turned around.

Well congrats Padawan, Veers. 8) Now the hunt is on for Tarkin! ;)
The next box I got the 2 Wedge chases so the other 2 boxes are dummies so to speak. The box placement is the same as what Simon got.
(http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i306/DSJcdn/Kubricks%20Series%206/KbricksSeries6WedgeChasesFigures.jpg)
Well that was fun, another great series from Medicom. Man these suckers are addictive. Ahhh, the smell of Kuby fumes! ;D
Series 7 here I come! ;)

Sweet! Congrats on that Tarkin... good luck on acquiring General Veers

Hey Dale
Wanna sell me wedge?

Last weekend (this whole week, really) was a bit complicated (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=11154.msg241765#msg241765), so I was a bit delayed in getting to the post office to pick up my master cases. Luckily, I managed to pick up my boxes today from the post office. :)
I just got done ripping into box #1 and... Tarkin!
And, because I've got about 1,000,000 other things to do in the next few days, I pulled the trigger on a General Veers (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=015&item=250004680651) on eBay. $120 shipped isn't too shabby considering a few have sold for more, but really I'm just glad to have it out of the way so I can focus on other things this month... ;)
-
Nice work Jeff. Hard though it is to admit, you have things more important than Kubricks to deal with at the moment :-X
Padawan, do you have your case number handy? Curious to see if it can be predicted on that basis. I'm expecting since mine is coming from Robby and shipped the same as these other guys, it'll end up being Tarkin for me as well.

763.
Dale & Jeff Congrat's on Tarkin. My theory was completely wrong Jeff. Can we go back in time? ;)
I would have bought Veers eventually, so I guess it doesn't matter which chase I got. I'm happy & this series looks great, as usual.
-
So Dale - was your Tarkin in the first box that was flipped around, like Simon's? And were the Wedges in the next box from that?
-
I woke up this morning determined to catch up after loosing auctions for the last six months on the Rebo Band box set.
Picked this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=010&item=200004674479&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1) up and offered the seller $159.95 shipped (free shipping) which he agreed to.
While I was at it I bought the following:
Veers (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=007&item=170005329100&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1)

After four back and forth e-mails the seller offered me a great deal...at least I think so of $176.00 shipped registered air mail for everything :) ;) :D ;D!
Now on to finding that Tarkin...
-
Does anybody need help getting rid of Wave 6 extras? I want to get the set, and of course the chases, but I'll settle for the basic set for starters.
Otherwise it's off to eBay I go!
Thanks.
-
Sent you a PM konakazi
-
So Dale - was your Tarkin in the first box that was flipped around, like Simon's? And were the Wedges in the next box from that?
Yes & yes. :)

Anyone know of any medicom case sellers, as I need some for series 6?

You could try HLJ, $91.26 US per box plus shipping. Maybe someone else has another place to try out.

Just opened the first 2 boxes of my MC and I pulled the Tarkin (YES!) and both Wedges. ;D So now i'm done with s6 and ANXIOUSLY awaiting s7...
-
I ordered a box of 12 from BBTS a little while back...While, I'm anxiously awaiting to receive my order, I'll be honest I'm doubtful that I'll even have a chance to get my first chase. it seems like Medicom is making things easier to find the correct boxes with the chases as previously reported. I'm still unsure if I should buy of the chase figs off e-bay now regardless if i'm getting a box in.
-
I would check your box first- I was very pleasantly surprised when buying a single box of series 4 from Toynk.com. I bought it for the extra stormtroopers, and hit two Luke stormies. Of course, I had already plopped down the cash for the chases on the bay, and now I hang on to these as trade bait.
-
Yep, historically guys have hit on chase figures from retailers previously. I've never had the luck, but others ordering from HLJ.com scored. BBTS is probably the same.
I think if the retailer isn't offering up chase figures either in the online store or from their ebay account, then you have decent odds. If they are selling stuff separately, then yeah, they've probably figured out where the figures are just like folks here have.
As for buying chase figures on ebay, I don't think there's a big hurry. Not much on there yet, so most cases probably aren't even at their destination yet. Those of us that order from Robby.jp get them pretty fast, only a week or so behind Japan, so many people won't have them yet. The minor chase (Wedge) will drop in price for a while and the other "big" chase figures will settle out around the $100 mark for a bit. Then probably climb once they make it into collectors hands.
Now, there's this funny little box beside me....
-
Padawan, do you have your case number handy? Curious to see if it can be predicted on that basis. I'm expecting since mine is coming from Robby and shipped the same as these other guys, it'll end up being Tarkin for me as well.

Thanks kindly, mine is 363. Looks pretty similar to Dale's arrangement (and Simon's) with the first box turned around.
-
:o
My box setup is different from Dale's.
His was:
R4M9 Tie RA-7
Luke Luke RFT
Tie DST DST
Tie Tie Luke
Mine was:
R4M9 Tie Luke
Luke Luke RFT
RA-7 DST DST
Tie Tie Tie
Totally weird packing job on this box, though I'm not complaining because the only open box so far is that Tie Fighter Pilot in the top row and it is indeed Tarkin!
-
Proving I'm a loon with my fourth post in a row....
Next box had the Wedge(s) in it, so I'm good to go.
-
nice, congrats morgbug!! :)
-
Nice score Brent!
I'm hoping for Tarkin in my case as well, but there is a good chance their prices will be very similar anyhow for whichever one I have to buy. I suppose I could get super lucky, since I am getting one extra box of 12 from Jeff as well. But he is justifiably occupied at the moment, so I will have to be patient.
-
(http://www.jedidefender.com/news/images/3-06/series7.jpg)
Thinking about the next series already and wondering what the case breakdown will be?
4 Biker Scout
3 Royal Guard
2 Gammorrean Guard
1 Leia Boushh
1 Lando Skiff
1 Anakin
This is sort of a pain of an assortment (though it is fantastic). It would be nice to display Leia with and without the helmet and same for Lando as well. The Gam Guard could be pushed to just a single figure, but it would be nice to have more than one if the Jabba boxed set ever comes to fruition. I think Anakin is a safe bet to be only a single figure per box though. I suppose they could drop the Royal Guard to less than 3 as well, but that would be fairly surprising.
I'd almost be happy to see them alter the ratio to 4/2/2/2/1/1.
-
Congrats Brent. :)
Well that sure was a different setup you got, strange how they set them up that way.
-
I am eagerly awaiting the 400% Vader and wave 7. The biker on bike and blackhole stormtrooper are icing on a sweeeeet cake. The Hasbro naboo wave bores the hell out of me, and a bunch of repaints with the # 30 on them aren't very exciting either. Kubricks and some gentle giant stuff seem to be where I'm headed-
-
as much as i love that 400% vader, i think at the price it's out of my price range. come to think of it, i haven't collected any of the 400% because of that reason. i am heavily anticipating series 7 though. it's my favorite set so far and i'm hoping that the set looks like the one morgbug posted (except have 3 gammorean guards and 2 royal guards). the speeder bike/biker scout combo looks pretty sweet too...

There's a price on the Vader already? How much???
I can't wait for that piece. The 400% line is my favorite and I like when they do actual characters over the traditional Be@rbrick pieces...
-
Thanks to Mayday I tracked down a Tarkin at a very fair price, thanks again. I also snatched this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=016&item=260006153378&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWN%3AIT&rd=1) up today.
So all I need to catch up is the series 1 Fett chase with one red and one yellow gauntlet and Han Endor Chase.
By chance anyone here have a Han Endor Chase they want to sell. I'd like to get that purchase over with now.
Enjoy the Kubricks everyone!
-
I've got alot of catching up to do as far as Star Wars Kubricks. I only have regular sets of 3, 4, & 5 complete with series 6 on it's way. That leaves me with Series 1 & 2, plus the chase figures and boxed sets...

No price on that Vader yet :-\. I'm guessing that it's going to be the same price as the 400% Luke & Han Stormtrooper (supposedly same distributor) which is still out of my price range anyways (which is why I haven't collected any of the 400% figs)...
-
<<cut and past from KW, I`m so lazzzy! :P >>
At long last, the post you have all been waiting for is here!
Series 7? Bah! 400% Vader? PFFT!!
Pictures from Bricks N Beer 4? YES!

:o
Guess I'd better think about getting one of them thar officers/Veers.
-
That's more than $3,000 U.S. in master cases to put together that collection of old men in uniform. Yikes....
-
Anyone opened one of the other Masters that Jeff got? It will be interesting to see what the chase is in those
-
I'm picking one up from Jeff Wednesday, I'll probably open it Friday night-
-
So Dale - was your Tarkin in the first box that was flipped around, like Simon's? And were the Wedges in the next box from that?
Yes & yes. :)
OK...well we'll see how it goes when I get mine. :D Thanks for the info.

Here are some series 7 customs I made.

$157 for Tarkin?! Ouch.
Please tell me those Tarkin prices will go down. These things haven't even hit my local specialty shops yet. Dang.
-
Average on the bay since the release is anywhere from $111.00 to $140.00 tho there is another that went for $149.99.
-
If anyone can help me out, I didn't get a Rebel Fleet Trooper. So if anyone has a spare, please help me, I've got stormtroopers to trade... :D
-

The prices will eventually level around around the $100 mark. It's the hype making the prices so high...

Just a heads up guys, another eBayer is using pictures without my permission. Yep, stolen again.
I did the layout like Simon did in the pics.

whoohoo! I just pulled a Veers... from my friendly neighborhood collectible store!!!
Went for a kubrick run at lunch today. I didn't get a box of 12 because in this series i was only interested in the TIE pilot and X-wing luke, but when I got to the store they had a brand new box of 12 that hasn't been touched. Thanks to all of you who posted the locations of the chases and regular figures, led me right to the death star trooper with the Veers inside. I love this community~!
Pics to come tonight when I get off work.

cool! Nice to see a shop that doesn`t cherry pick the good stuff out.
-
Actually the shop keeper was a bit clueless as to what the chases were this series and also tried to tell me there is a chase inside the R4-M9 box ::)
For those of you wondering I got my 'bricks today at "Ages 3 and Up" in Metrotown Burnaby, Canada
-
Congrats on the grab Ire. 8) "Ages 3 and Up", oy! ;D
I see the seller that used my picture changed it, lukers abound! :-\
On a good note, I won an Imperial Officer (Veers) off the bay for $94.00. Shipped is $103.00, not to shabby I must say. ;D
So for series 6, I am now done. 8)

Is that Spencer's shop? Nice pull, regardless.
Nicely done Dale, I still have to acquire the officer, just not motivated yet :-X

Yes that is Spencer's shop. I don't think it was him on duty tho, it was a younger guy.

Ooooh... Guess what the mailman dropped off today! Not one, but two packages full of Kubrick Goodness!
First up, a finish to Series 6 - my General Veers joins the rest of the gang:

Off to send an e-mail to Oscar to buy an acrylic case for him! ;)
-
All i need is a Veers and i will be done with this series. I have been thinking it may be time to get a carded Sandtrooper since i dished the money out for Sacul. I figure i no longer have standards. :o ;D
-
Nice stuff Jeff. :)
Carded Kuby's rock! ;D
-
Popped open my Master and opened the sweet spot figure....Tarkin!
So, all I need is Veers and I'll be done, thanks Jeff :-*

What's the card for? ???
-
Man, congrat's to everyone and their new Kubrick goodness. I remember when it was just a few of us here discussing this line. This series has really blown up, and deservedly so. Medicom has always gone above & beyond when it comes to the Star Wars Kubrick line.
What I currently lack from a complete set is both series 1 chase Fett's, the carded Darth Vader, the carded Fett, the Be@rbrick Wicket's (I'm with Morgbug they dont count ;)), and all of the 400% Kubrick's.
I think I am staying away from the chase Fett's and the carded Fett & Vader, but I do hope to pick up at the 400% Kubrick's.
Also, if by chance anyone has a Tarkin, and doesn't want $150.00 for it, please pm me.
-
Congrats everybody on your pick-ups!!! :)
While everybody is completing their sets, I received an e-mail from BBTS that my order has arrived and is being processed for delivery. I'm crossing my fingers for my first ever chase figure...I've been collecting all kinds of Kubricks over the year sand got back into Star Wars a few months back by completing SW Kubrick regular sets of 3,4, & 5.
I can't wait until the box comes in though. It looks like a great set from the pictures that some of you have posted. I'll probably pick up an extra Rebel Fleet Trooper at my Newbury Comics when they come in on July 19th. It's too bad I got into collecting Star Wars Kubricks late in the game. I never really checked prices to buy a boxes of these and I have always stayed far away from ebay (I don't even have an account) due to horror stories from a couple of my buddies (especially the paypal scams).
The local place around here is very expensive for a single Star Wars Kubrick. Could you imagine buying a set of 6 for $17.99 per figure?!? In my case, buying a box of 12 is a little better than buying from that place...Everything else they sell (Kubrick/Bearbrick-wise) is very reasonable and I even wound up with some good deals on other Kubricks that I collect. The mark-up on all their Star Wars stuff made me think twice this time around...If the experience is good, then I can't wait for series 7. I'll keep you guys posted how I did on the box of 12. keep your fingers crossed for me...

You lucky SOB! Unbelievable! Congratulations.

Curious, has there been any word from official sources (ie Medicom) that the Death Star Commander chase kubrick is really General Veers?
Anyways here's the 'Veers' that I scored today (crappy phone pic but it'll do!!)
(http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h201/irydium/Picture11.jpg)
(http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h201/irydium/Picture12.jpg)
Also, is the tie pilot's helmet glued onto the head? or somehow glued to the chest piece? Do you guys just force it off?

It is good to see so many people enjoying kubs!
I am missing all the carded figs except for droids Fett. Just too darn much $$.
Maybe an R2 and Sacul someday...
My Tarkin is gone (going out today actually), sorry! (not for 150 either!).
With the $$ from Tarkin, in comes an Imperial Officer, heh
Robby just emailed about series 7, woo hoo!

Tie Pilot helmet not really glued on, but the tubes might be glued in. They pop off easy enough though. The head is really in there good though.

Robby says series 7 will be out in November (sooo, December then? lol)
Also asked about 400% Darth Vader. They don`t know if they can get them or not, but are looking into it.
-
Watch HLJ.com for the 400% Vader as well. They had the Han/Luke stormtroopers also.
Ordered my master case this morning 8)

Anyone have a complete set of the basic 6 that they're looking to get rid of for a good price?
Deal pending. Thanks for the offers guys!

Ditto. 8)

Anyone want to part with one Rebel Fleet Trooper and Death Star Gunner?

Fleet Trooper will be a tough one, as it was 1 per box. Keep checking places like www.freebento.com and www.ningyoushi.com, they might have them.
DSG go for pretty cheap on eBay right now, if no one has extras here.
-
In your pics, it looks like you've got an extra Rebel Fleet Trooper...wanna sell it? ;)

He got that one from me! I got it in our case that we split, the extra ended up going to me. So I traded it for a Stormie!
Had to help out my buddy.
to get an extra for myself, I broke up one of the sets from my Master case so I could at least have 2 for my collection.
I just could not help myself!

Nice Imperial army there, Adam. So, who's gotten the chases from the MC that Jeff's splitting up, or might I actually get one (or two) this time?!

We'll find out tonight at our meeting! (Piddling in my pants) :P

Does anyone know if those new Kubrick figures have hit Japan yet (or anywhere else for that matter)? I'm talking about the Bounty Hunter and the "Early Bird" sets that are the first official Kubrick figures that are to be released. Also, does anyone know of any reasonably priced sites or people that you can buy them off of?
For some reason I really like these figures. I picked up almost all of the bootleg SW Kubricks a couple years back, and have really been looking forward to these new and officially licensed versions since they were announced earlier this year.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Phhhttth.
:-*
-
Hot dang, he's kickin kubie old school!
I've been in the line since the EB set, but didn't hit these boards til, I don't know, last year I think.
-
I got the Bootlegs as a gift.
Then i got the Bounty Hinters as a Gift, I had intentions to buy those anyhow.
Picked up a box of 12 of Series 2.
Then it just got nuts...ended up splitting a case with two friends of Series 3, did the same for Series 4 & 5, then we split a case of Series 6 and I bought a MC of my own.
I'm a Crcakbrickaholic.

I think I'd give Dale the nod outside the bootlegs, not you ;) And it's not like you guys were by yourself for years on end ::)

Some prick bought a box of series 2 and forced a Sandtrooper on me.
Now it is about all I collect! That person owes me a couple grand by now.

I remember putting on getting into Kubricks, telling myself they are hard to get a hold of since they are only in Japan. They would be expensive. So I didn't get the first bounty hunter wave right away. Very tempted but waited until series 2 and was sucked in. Simon was very helpful in getting me series 1, so i will blame him for the addiction. ;D ;) After that i just back tracked and looked ahead to the futre.
-
For me it was the same. Series 2 got me started on them, had to hit ebay for a complete series 1, and they are easily my favorite "collectible" the past few years.
And in my case, I've got to Brent to thank/blame.
-
Now that I'm done huffin series 6 fumes, when are we going to here about this years TRU pack?
And get that 400% vader on market, my kidney is just waiting to be traded..
-
Oh yeah I forgot about that one... I can't wait!!!
-
My brain is on serious Medicom overload now... :o
In the last two days we've had news on a crap-load of stuff:
- VSD Clone Trooper
- VSD TIE Pilot
- Empire Be@rbrick 2-Pack (100% and 400%)
- Carded Parco Jorg Sacul Kubrick
- Kubrick Series 6
- Kubrick Series 7
- possible RAH Boba Fett!
- possible 100% Blackhole Stormtrooper Kubrick!
- possible 400% Darth Vader!
- possible Biker Scout w/Speeder Bike Box Set!
- possible VSD or RAH Yoda (can't really tell from the pics)
Yowza! I'm gone for 3 weeks and all hell breaks loose! :o
You know, I was starting to lose interest in the Kubricks, but this series and the next have really regenerated it again. 8)
Medicom, you rock.
-
For me it was all Dales fault!!
Jesse in the next wave if you are going a master case lemme know :)

I'm definitely considering it. I have to place my order by July 30th with Robby.jp, so if I do, I'll be sure to let you know. I assume you'd want one box of 12 figures? Out of curiosity, anyone else considering going in on a master case as well?
-
Losing interest? Absolutely blasphemous.
These guys are my favorites. Only thing I wouldn't readily unload is the loose vintage stuff and the Kubricks. Everything else is no big deal.
-
I placed my order for seven master cases of Series 7 last night and got my confirmation e-mail this AM. 8)
If you don't want a whole Series 7 Master Case Jesse, I'm sure I could help you out with a set of 6 (or 7) or a box of 12. :-*
-
ROFLMAO. You're such a kubrick whore. Really. Jesse has an account with Robby, he could just order a box himself ya know. :D Or are you getting bulk discounts from Robby.jp now :o

7 master cases? :o What are you doing, trading them for baby formula on the street?
BTW, does anyone have any boxes of Series 6 left? Thankfully, Dale offered me a box, but that may not be enough to satisfy my army-building desire with these guys (since I don't really army build much with Hasbro's stuff).

Whore! :P

For those that have the Chase Wedge, notice that it looks like he is wearing a flight cap under the helmet. The X-wing Luke doesn't have this paint job. Maybe this could be a Hoth Wedge, minus the gray gloves and boots. (I only recall seeing pilots wearing the flight cap on Hoth)
Maybe I've had too much wine. :P

One of these days I'll get one of those chase Fetts...
My daughters and I had a Kubrick opening party. We opened up all the boxes, piled up the silver bags, and then really "randomized" them by scattering them all over, juggling them, making the dog chase them, etc. The five year old had a hard time understanding my excitement when she found the "grandpa" figure on her second one, but it was all good.
Definately looking forward to wave 7, and hoping the chase figures stay unknown a little longer.
-
Sounds like fun, including the fame. Thanks for sharing.
Huge thanks to Sithbaker for the Tarkin at a very fair price. Now I'm patiently waiting on the other eight figures from series six to arrive in the mail. Iv'e made room for them on the "bleachers."

I just noticed now that you mentioned it.
This Luke Custom I made came out good.
The head popped off the neck perfectly, same happened with the Luke Jedi head I used.
On the other X-Wing Luke I tried this on, the necked snapped with the head attached. Got lucky on this one.

I threw a bid at this (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=250005975973&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT&ih=015) auction about 3 and a half hours before it ended and figured I'd get out bid. Much to my surprise I won it. All in all, Veers for less than $110 shipped is a pretty good deal me thinks.
Now I just have to track down Tarkin and series 6 will be all set.

Much to my surprise I won it. All in all, Veers for less than $110 shipped is a pretty good deal me thinks.
Now I just have to track down Tarkin and series 6 will be all set.
Nice! I was wondering if that was someone here, good score.
Waiting for my Imperial Officer to get here, can`t wait!
Ugh, I bought 5 Tie Pilots off my buddy (crackbrick!) today, I just can`t say no to army builders, especially at a good price. Then another buddy stopped by and I ended up with 3 more! oops!

Yeah that was me you outbid. :-[ Damn me for having work.

Sorry about that, ef. I honestly thought I would get outbid and this would go for at least $115 before shipping.

Good god, seeing a pic like that has honorius on my mind again!
-
One of each please, thanks.
Are they selling the whole lot like that? Or just doing like Honorius and just listing a Jorg but showing off
a little at the same time?
-
That's no collection, it's an inventory...

That's VERY strange. I guess there is always a variation of the norm... I would say box #3 but then again i'd only be guessing...
-
Boy, that is a surprise. I certainly found my Wedges in box # 2 as well.
If you are flipping a coin, it does seem that # 3 is more likely, since at least it would be one of the interior boxes-
-
okok. i'm not opening them yet.
i will wait and see if anyone met the same configuration as me..

Hiya guys,
I received my box of 12 from BBTS. Here are the results I promised:
From Top Of The Box
RA-7 Luke X-Wing Luke X-WIng
Death Star Trooper Luke X-Wing Luke X-Wing
Death Star Trooper Tie Fighter Pilot Tie Fighter Pilot
Tie Fighter Pilot Tie Fighter Pilot Luke X-Wing
Ok, this assortment doesn't look great and I was disappointed at first when I saw that the majority of my box were Luke X-Wings (5) and Tie Fighter Pilots (4). On top of that, my box of 12 did not include the Rebel Trooper or R4-M9 (which I'll have to track down eventually).
However, if you look at the assortment carefully--see the Death Star Trooper underneath RA-7. Well, in that package I pulled a General Veers (Woooo!!) ;D. So all in all, not a bad box...a great pull although my final results are like this:
5 Luke X-Wing
4 Tie Fighter Pilots
1 RA-7
1 Death Star Trooper
1 General Veers :)
0 Rebel Fleet Trooper
0 R4-M9
Hope this helps in case any of you happen to see a similar assortment somewhere!! Unfortunately, I'll probably be tracking down the two I'm missing at Newbury Comics. The reason why I bought the case in the first place is that they charge $17.99 for each individual sealed Star Wars Kubrick at that place. But on the bright side, I pulled my first ever chase!!! (and it was the one I wanted in this set...)
-
Well I think that is the first assortment of the box with Veers in it posted that I can remember. 1 extra X-Wing Luke for a no R4-M9 kinda sucks but to get Veers... 8)
-
Congrat's on Sacul Dale. ;D
Mine is still in Japan at the moment. Time to request a shipment.
As for that case box from BBTS, that is the first time I have ever heard a box of 12 Star Wars not containing a complete set of 6. Very odd. Congrat's on pulling the Imperial Officer though.
-
It was a strange assortment...I still would've wished that I would've received one or the other for the Rebel Trooper or the R4-M9 instead of the extra Luke but I'll take the assortment as is (especially with the Veers). Thing is I took a gamble buying a box of 12 online, and I guess I did alright. I wish I didn't have to spend the extra money to complete the regular set.
My thinking was that there was 1 R4-M9 and 1 Rebel Trooper per box of 12, and the Tarkins/Veers were found in the Tie Fighter boxes (which were the first ones I tried) and the Wedges were found in the X-Wing Luke boxes. I knew the chances of getting a chase was slim in the first place....
-
I'm guessing that we can't slam BBTS for scamming chase figures now, not that we ever did with them. But folks have pulled chase now from BBTS and HLJ boxes.
Nice score Nitro, it might be annoying to not have those regs, but you can find sets with chase Wedge for around $65-70 right now, thirty bucks LESS than Veers and you get a chase and two missing figures, plus extras to sell, including one of the one per case Kubs.
-

And then we have the new movies...I might have to take a bridge if they release them along side the Vintage...imagine all the Clones...
Does anyone think the Bricks will go long enough to comprise the entire Vintage Line?
Delta Oscar Charlie
-
I'd say that the Kenner Anakin is coming or is close enough
-
BBTS was good to me for chases. I ordered their last 3 cases of series 3 at the beginning of the year when they were discounted to $80 each and pulled a Logray, plus 3 Hibernation Sickness Hans. Can't beat that for $240.
-
I'll agree about BBTS, I pulled a 6-armed Spidey from my Marvel 3 case that I got from them...
-
Congrat's on Sacul Dale. ;D
Mine is still in Japan at the moment. Time to request a shipment.
As for that case box from BBTS, that is the first time I have ever heard a box of 12 Star Wars not containing a complete set of 6. Very odd. Congrat's on pulling the Imperial Officer though.
If you got a Blue snag, you didn`t get the red one with series 5.
Guy over at KW got a full box of Vaders, also. He said the box was sealed completey too. Very odd.
-
I dunno, a lot of the boxes I've received in the last two cases (one from each previous series) were open at the bottom. Not tampered with, just the glue didn't hold well. You could see the pattern of the glue on the box bottom clearly and my cases have both been exactly as they should have been with chase figures. I even re-glued one of the boxes I kept for display, so the bottom flap wasn't damaged. I just ran regular white glue along the previous glue lines and it stayed perfectly as though it had never been opened. I think at least for the last two series it would be pretty easy to fake a sealed box.
Just sitting around and thinking about the math of Kubricks:
92 (+/-) vintage figures from Kenner
8 figures per Kubrick series (often 9, but 8 allows for multiple Fetts or Hasbro released characters)
~$250 per Kubrick series (perhaps a bit on the low side)
92/8 = 11.5
11.5 x $250 = $2875
That doesn't include the carded beasts or boxed sets or much drifting into the Hasbro stuff. It also certainly doesn't include if you were unfortunate enough to backtrack to get the chase Fetts or Indy.
I'm pretty sure I paid less than that for my entire vintage loose collection.
-
My master case was the same way- on 3 of the 4 boxes the glue had let-go on the bottom flap. It would have been very easy to tamper with box assortments if I were splitting them to sell.
But since you got a Veers it sems very unlikely they were cherry-picking the boxes-
I hope there are at least 3-4 more series of OT (through 2007 at least). If they switch to prequels, I'll still buy them, I will just order single boxes instead of master cases.
-
Series 5, most of the boxes I had were unglued as well. This time they were all good though.
Just got Imperial Officer in the mail, score! Series 6 done.
Also got another white pauldron Sandy (needed 2, 1 looked lonely).
BBTS is good. Since they don`t sell sets/singles anymore, I doubt they would take the time to open them. We got our MC of series 3 from them, great service and I like the email updates every week, gives me something to read.
-
Well I think that is the first assortment of the box with Veers in it posted that I can remember.
Didn't Simon have Veers?
Here is how box 1 ended up.
(http://www.ne.jp/asahi/getnood/now/Graphics/jpeg/Kubrick/s6-d.jpg)
His box was not all screwed up and missing figures... I guess nitro just got a bad box? :-\
-
No box with Veers in it is a bad box ;)
-
I got Veers too, and it was the same as Simon's box.
-
Well, here is what my box looked like after everything was opened (in order of original placement):
(http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f72/Johnz1492/Picture267.jpg)
I was initially disappointed with the box because I was hoping for the full set. You see my local comic book shop sells sealed Star Wars kubricks (series 5 only) for $17.99 each (not including sales tax). If I bought a set of 6, the the total would be (not including 7% sales tax) $107.94. This box of 12 cost less than the total of 6, which was the reason of getting the case in the first place. Now, I've got to hunt for the other 2 which should be arriving in a few weeks at the shop to get caught up.
It was hard looking at what I had in front of me. I mean 5 X-Wing Lukes? 4 Tie Fighter Pilots? If you add up those two figures alone, they make up 75% of my case. While the Veers was worth the price alone (and it's the first chase I've ever pulled), I'll probably do the same thing again (preordering a box of 12 for series 7)...
-
Damn! 17.99 each, even for the commons? Ugh.
4 Tie Pilots is a good thing though, army builders!
-
I picked up my master case today at the PO. I'll be opening it tonight when I get home from work. :D
-
Ningyoushi got the current wave in finally and they had Tarkin for $95. Sold out now!
-
Damn! 17.99 each, even for the commons? Ugh.
4 Tie Pilots is a good thing though, army builders!
Yeah, the $17.99 price included commons. Believe it or not, they actually sell pretty well at that store (figure theres no other store in the area for that sell Kubricks). I'm thinking about going there tonight after I take my wife out to eat for dinner nearby to see if they had gotten their case in. I'll probably just splurge and get the Rebel Trooper and R4-M 9that nev er came in my case just to have the full set if they even have it in stock. I really don't feel like spending $60 and have to add to the total of X-Wing Lukes considering the cost of a box of 12 that I had already spent.
As for my case from BBTS, I'm going to preorder another box of 12 (series 7) and see the outcome from that. It's still a deal in my case because of the comic stores price for an individual common. I wish Medicom could've packaged more Death Star Troopers or Rebel Troopers in their boxes instead of X-Wing Lukes. I really don't know what I'm going to do with the 5 of them....would they even be considered an army builder??
-
Is there any way to get on Robby's pre-order list, as I really want a mastercase for series 7, for those army builders?
Plus are you able to pre-order 400% kubs too?
-
Ningyoushi has the Vader 400% on preorder for $120.00, $50.00 down (Thanks to Jedijaybird for that tip). No refund unless they cannot fill the order, so it may be worth a little wait to see who else will be selling them.
I tried to get hooked up with Robbyjp, but didn't meet their volume qualifications.
-
I'm glad I was patient with Tarkin. Just got shipping confirmation from Ningyoushi on it. For once I was happy to be up at 6:00 am central time. ;D
-
I posted some extras on the for sale board in case anyone is lookin...

Watch HLJ.com as they sold the Luke/Han troopers for the same price as Robby.jp. No membership required and as much as I love being "in" with Robby.jp, I have zero gripes about HLJ.
You probably don't meet membership requirements because your zip code is too close to Jeff's.
-
So I pulled 2 boxes from my master case, and just like most Robby's, I got a Tarkin in the first, and the 2 Wedges in the second.
Now I just have to score a Veers. I've been checking eBay, but they haven't been around. Anyone know where to score one?
-
For Veers, don't forget to search under "Imperial Officer" as well as veers.
There are still a few out there on eBay, all in the $120-125 range.

Wow Yujun, that is a strange case you ended up with there. I hope it all works out all-right.
My Veers arrived, so 6 is done. I have to think about that Sacul figure, that's some pretty big scratch for a different head, and I hate to keep it carded-

Wow !! Nice setup Sithbaker !!! I hear ya with the single Fleet Trooper though. I wish they switched the X-Wing Lukes (multiples per box of 12) with the Fleet Trooper. It wouldv'e made a big difference. Hopefully Medicom doesn't do the same in the next assortment for Series 7. I'll go crazy if they pack in only 1 Royal Guard or Scout Trooper and have multiples of Boush Leia or Skiff Lando per box of 12....
-
I am hoping the Royal Guard is the multipack int he box. I want a bunch of them.
-
They better pack Biker Scout and Royal Guard heavy, maybe 3-4 each then 2 Gams and 1 each the rest.
-

I agree completely Sithbaker. I never understood the justification of having multiples of x-wing luke in the last box when they had a chance to help collectors complete an army builder with rebel troopers.

(http://www.medicomtoy.co.jp/WI/upimage/060724_4_1.jpg)(http://www.medicomtoy.co.jp/WI/upimage/060724_4_2.jpg)
Just by way of an update, I was chatting with a fellow I know in Japan that helped me get the Luke/Leia speederbike box a couple of years back. Apparently the pre-order on this is a lottery, you can pre-order (if you live in Japan, one per address/family) and in August you will find out if you are one of the lucky recipients. Simply pre-ordering this isn't going to net you one. :-\ There may be ways around that in Japan, but I nor my friend are aware of any at this point.
So it may list for a very reasonable price, but you have to expect that just about every ebay seller in Japan (no offense, there are some excellent folks there) will be doing their best to get their hands on these. You can also, of course, expect that the price will move up considerably from what the retail price is. Given it's 2006 pieces, my expectation is it will settle out around the price of the Droids R2 figure, so somewhere between $80-120 USD depending on your luck/skill.
Simon, please correct my information if it is wrong.

Series 7 already being sold on EBAY.

-
That's pretty normal actually. I've seen auctions since the first tiny picture leaked out a while back.
-
So...because of the limited number and the fact that I don't live in Japan I have to wait until this hits Ebay Brent?
EDIT: topic-- the biker scout with speeder bike
-
Yes, that's correct. Even the folks in Japan that ordered it don't know if they're getting it yet. They'll find out in August.
-
I've got to get one of the Biker Scout... :o

Taa daa! 8)

That's a rap for Series 6. 8)
-
Open it!!!! hahaha congrats.

Open it!!!! hahaha congrats.
Oh he will be opened & displayed with the others in the individual display cases once I get settled in at the new place. ;)

Nice! Now we have to save up $$ for 400% Vader, biker scout set(s) and series 7.
Did anyone confirm if it is Veers or just an Imperial Officer? If it is just an officer, we could
have multiples of him (if one had the $$ to do so, that is (not me!) )
-
the more I look at him, the more I think they were definitely going for Veers...
-
From the looks of the mainpage, it may seem we may not be getting a small scale Black hole stormtrooper. They only make mention of the 400% Kubrick.

The report is fixed, just a bit of a mix up. ;)

Wow! $1 Imperial Officer on ebay!

but the shipping... ::)
-
What the hell?
It better come stuffed in the crotch of an Asian Hooker for that price. ::)
-
I'm afraid there were no crotches involved. That's the seller I got my Veers from, but he's jumped his shipping $10 since I bought. Can't blame the guy, his ebay fees are a lot lower that way, though he could get in trouble for it too. I will say he shipped really fast, I had mine pretty much within a week and well packed, with a low value so no customs fees for me. I've no complaints with him. I see other familiar ebay userids as well.
-
Auctions like that tick me off. I'm glad you had good luck Brent, but when someone is willing to cut the rules corners to save a couple of dollars, I don't want to deal wtih them. If he's willing to overtly screw ebay it speaks to the character of the seller- a snake doesn't have to bite everybody for me to try avoiding it.
-
I almost forgot- I came on here to find out when past years TRU exclusive sets have been announced- are we not having one for 2007?
-
Unknown at this time, we have been hit with lots of Kuby stuff this year. Maybe in the fall we might hear something.

Yep, that's the same seller I got my Veers from too. No problems with him.
Some sellers have had a low bin & in the description they have the shipping prices way up. This is known as circumventing fees (http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/listing-circumventing.html). If someone complains then eBay can suspened the seller etc...
-
Some stuff arrived this week. Tarkin from Ningyoushi, & the Sacul and TRU set from Yahoo Japan.
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/brooks55/SWKubrickmix.jpg)
So I noticed Action-HQ has Tarkin for the lovely price of $169.95 plus international shipping. How nice of them. ::)
-
Very nice to get all the Kuby's in one week, congrats. :)
I got an e-mail from Action-HQ & yeah the price on Tarkin is well... ::)
-
Ahhh a new imperial to add to my collection; that black stormie on the front page has my blood flowing throught the Kube veins again!

Agreed and in some respects I'm cautious. I pay those via paypal and rest assured, if it isn't here quickly I'll take action via paypal. I may not win and still get burned, but at least there's some backup there. But your point is well taken.
Sacul tempting, need details on black stormie. :P
-
If anyone still has an extra Wedge floating around at this point that they don't want to gouge me on, please drop me a line. I'd also be willing to toss a couple TIE Pilots and/or TSC Endor figures into the mix as trade bait, or I'd be willing to sell my two TIE Pilots to anyone interested separately instead...
As for the potential TRU boxset #3, considering the first two have proven to be mostly just repaints, this is the lineup I'd dig for the next one:
1. Spirit of Yoda (gotta have him to complete the ROTJ spirit lineup)
2. Biggs X-Wing Pilot
3. Death Star Droid (RA-7 black repaint)
4. Lando in Smuggler disguise (Han/Lando kit-bash)
5. Captain Antilles (from a RFT)
Any other viable options for repaints still at this point? There's always more astromech repaint options from all 3 versions (R2, R4, R5), of course. Silver and red 3POs would work too, as would more Rebel Pilots (Biggs, Dutch, etc.), and I guess there's also the Mon Calamari Colonel (would need a small helmet molded on Ackbar, like the POTJ figure). Anything else come to mind?
-
I love the idea of spirit Yoda, Death Star Droid, and Captain Antilles. I would like to see them stick a Hoth Leia in there, but maybe she's best saved for the Series 8 I want to see, (all ESB with snowtroopers up the ying-yang). Obi Wan with a modified Jedi Luke robe (two-tone) so we get a hood-up obi would be nice. I'm afraid the 5th is just about bound to be an ewok...
Re: the Wedge figure- I'm sorry you got a dud box from our common Kubrick pimp. JediJaybird hit the Tarkin, and I got the Wedgies. I gave him one in trade for a cool Hoth background poster he had printed out for me-
-
Had a couple more figures arrive today , so I decided to take a couple of pics.
I also won a local auction here and when those figs arrive a new photo will have to be taken.

How about General Lando, Han Ceremonial, Chewbacca Hoth, and you know there's going to be some lame Ewok.

I'd like Red Leader's Astromech – R5-K6

that wouldn't be too bad, I really am hoping for the spirit of Yoda figure.
-
I like that R5 unit, and Lando General would be nice as well. I wonder if he would be a chase figure for the ROTJ loaded wave 7? But now that I am thinking about a hooded up Obi Wan, I really want to see one.
-
Well this is my first post here, I usually post on the other boards but this one seems to have the highest level of Kubrick activity. You guys have been a very good resource for me on collecting this line.
I just got my box from HLJ and was lucky enough to pull a veers. I am not a completist with this line so I was looking to trade or sell him to somone on the boards who is much more into these then me.
Selling for 105 Shipped U.S.
or looking to trade for following
Looking for Clone Pilot GG Bust (maybe a little kick toward your end)
Ponda Baba Kubrick
Logray Kubrick
Boba Fett Ridell Mini Helmet
Or a combo of relative value of the following
GG Padme Bust
Boba Fett Legends in 3 D Bust
Kubricks
4-Lom
Dengar
Zuckuss
Greedo
Bith (either one)
Tusken Raider
TRU Set 1
TRU Set 2
I have refrences under Stewie on Ebay, stewbacca on rebelscum, stewbacca on fbtb, and am a well known member of the DCSWCC.
-
Greetings, welcome and nice pull! :o More confirmation that there are some honest retailers out there (though how come I never got diddly from my boxes from HLJ?).
-
I am hoping the Royal Guard is the multipack int he box. I want a bunch of them.
Medicom does everything bass ackwards so the Royal Guard will probably be a 1:12. they always seem to that with the Army builders...
-
Huh?
Series 1 - no real army builder
Series 2 - army builder = sandtrooper 4/12
Series 3 - AT-AT Driver 1/12
Series 4 - Stormtrooper 4/12
Series 5 - Death Star Gunner 3/12
Series 6 - Tie Pilot 3/12
DST 2/12
Rebel Trooper 1/12
So aside from Series 3, I'd say they're doing pretty well. Series six you could argue with an overpopulation of Lukes but there wasn't that much they could do there either. I'll remain an optimist with Medicom and think they'll do it right. They'll be in the same boat though as Series six with multiple army builders, so not everyone will be served properly, much as the Tusken was earlier.
-
madcow is talking out of his posterior orifice.
F. Series 6 - June 2006:
Regular Figures
___ Death Star Trooper - 2:12
___ Luke Skywalker - X-Wing Pilot - 3:12
___ R4-M9 - 1:12
___ RA-7 - 1:12
___ Rebel Trooper - 1:12
___ TIE Fighter Pilot - 4:12
I have no doubt that either Biker Scout or Royal Guards will be 4:12, the Gamorreans at least 2:12 with the others being 1:12.
-
How about General Lando, ...
...and Lando General would be nice as well.
Oh yeah, I totally brainfarted on that choice. Good thinking. I'd much rather have Lando General than Smuggler Lando, so my revised TRU (rehash) boxset #3 wishlist is this now:
1. Spirit of Yoda (gotta have him to complete the ROTJ spirit lineup)
2. Biggs X-Wing Pilot
3. Death Star Droid (RA-7 black repaint)
4. Lando General
5. Captain Antilles (from a RFT)
If that set actually came to fruition, it'd be one of the few times (only time?) I wouldn't have a gripe with getting a buttload of repaints.
BTW, nice collection pix Hemish, in case I failed to mention that earlier... ;)
And a hearty welcome to stewbacca as well! Excellent choice in stopping by JD, if you're looking for the best Star Wars Kubrick discussion on the net!

Nice! Is that from the star-kaws auction? I was watching that one, went too high for me though :(
-
Scored me a Holo Leia for just a hair over $50 last week and it arrived today. I'll open it eventually but I need to get my room in order first.
Now to get a Sacul.
-
Yeah, it was from the star-kaws auction, I had actually won a couple of stormtrooper kubricks from him previously so he shipped these to me free which was nice and gave a discount, he said he's hoping to have a similar amount of tie pilots when his series 6 arrive, so depending on how the finances are I might be picking them up from him too ;D

Sweet. Cheapest way to build the ol` army is a dozen at a time. Make sure to post some army pics once you have them all formed up !

How do you go about poping the head off the Kuby figs? I'd like to make a n X-Wing Luke that can be displayed with the Jedi Luke Head & Hair and was wondering how you who've made custom ones went about it.
-
madcow is talking out of his posterior orifice.
HEY! I prefer the term "poopchute", thank you very much! :P
I still think Medicom is screwy with things and we'll see a shortage of at least the Scout or the Royal Guard...

Just have to hope you get lucky on both the X-Wing Luke and the Jedi Luke and you get just the head and not the neck from each of them.
Just have to pull the head...that sounds dirty.
I had luck in both cases and bad luck as well.
2 Lukes, one just the head, the other the neck and head.
Same for the two Luke Jedis.

I love the display crackbrick, and I think you are admirably insane for opening a parco sandie-
what's the story on the bases?

Yes, please do tell. I wanna say that they are the Medicom bases that comes with some playsets but they look smaller and I don't remember ever seeing a black one before...
-
I think he used the bases from little kubrick type Microman figures. Each figure came with one, various colors.
-

Indeed I am insane!
The bases came from a line called Myclone, they are Kubrick type Block figures that are a nod to vintage Microman and Henshin Cyborg...long toy history there.

Has anyone ordered a case from Oscar for Sacul yet? I haven't taken the time to see if he will fit in any of the other cases.
-
I've got my Sacul in a case from Oscar.
I sent him the bubble depth of Sacul and he sent along the correct size Kubrick Case (I think he said he has two differnt depths now).
Works great, looks nice and keeps carded Sacul nice and safe. ;)

That's exactly what I've been doing with these Kubys. I've only managed to get 6 Stormtroopers so far, but I'm aiming for 12 of each army-builder. I've only hit that target with TIE Fighter Pilots and Ewoks (Wicket). I've got 7 X-Wing Pilots (Luke) and 6 Death Star Gunners, 2 Death Star Troopers, 1 Jawa, 1 Rebel Trooper, but no AT-AT Drivers.
I'd swear when I opened my box of Kubys this past week that the plastic smell was stronger than ever. They must be trying to ensure the addiction doesn't break. ;)

Two less holes in my collection, thanks to a certain someone in Japan.
My carded Luke (soon to be freed) and the second TRU box set are now in my greasy hands. All that's missing that I really want is a Sacul. I'm missing the Logray (ptui) and the second instrument Cantina band member (anyone?) but I'm too cheap to pay ebay prices for the latter and too nervous about fakes with the former (and it's a bloody ewok ::)).
Bring on series 7.

Nice pick ups! I still don`t have any of the carded figs other than droids Boba (probably from the same certain someone you mention).
The only other carded one I really want is R2. I rather buy a few sandtroopers/stormtroopers than pay for the other carded figs. I`m with you on the Logray. If I didn`t grab one when/where I did, I would have to pass on it now.
Mr. Dylan, your collection looks great! I especially love the imperial shelf. Good stuff!

Woo hoo! Thanks for hosting the pics Jeff!
Wow.
Nice set up.
Right now I have just about everything on one shelf.
Need some cases!

Nice grabs Brent. :)
Great set up Dylan, nice army builders. 8)
I have a little something on the way that I picked up short awhile ago that eluded me for a long time, should be here next week. ;D :-X

Has anyone else noticed that the Biker Scouts look a bit different? Looks like a dirty and clean version.

(http://www.bearbrick.com/sw060724/image/scout.jpg)
I see Mr Instinct is also is having a stab at the new assortment rates.
-
Are you mostly just referring to their boots, Simon? I can't really tell, but I suppose that would be a cool thing if they made the two of them a little bit different from eachother.
As for those potential case ratios there, not bad, but definitely not perfect. 2 Spirit Anakins? Dumb. (even if Spirit Yoda is a chase) There should be a couple Gamorrean Guards in there at least, since he's sort of an army building figure for Jabba's Palace setups. Probably just a cost factor decision by Kubrick on those two. The Scout and Royal Guard should probably get reversed too, so there's a few more Scouts available. We probably don't need quite that many Royal Guards really, unless folks are planning on doing the Imperial Shuttle arrival diorama. Otherwise, no complaints. Could've been far worse, that's for sure.
Nice pix there too, Dan! Didn't have to stick that damned TIE Defender in there though, you stinkin' showoff! >:( (yeah, that's the only AF ship I'm still missing, so I'm bitter and jealous)
-
Well, the defender was a little boastful. That and I'm sick of how many things I have in tubs instead of on display. That thing hasn't seen light in 3 years at least, so I wanted to put it with my current favorite, the Kubricks. Crackbrickhead's great set up with the vinty dewback inspired the ships going with the pilots.
Now I have to get Jedijaybirds poster set up in my Hasbro hoth cabinet- always more work to do. ;D
-
I can't wait to see it ;D
-
Very cool. I like the ratio with the Royal Guard, I just love them. I think its about time they do that Jabba set ;D
-
Still...the ideal thing would've at least to have reversed the Spirit Of Anakin with the Gammorean Guards. It just doesn't make too much sense especially for armybuilders. At least this time around we aren't getting 4 of something we don't need multiples of like the X-Wing Luke or Jedi Luke...

What Band Member is that exactly, I may have the instuments for it.
Bring on series 7.
-
Is that an official ratio, or someone's guess? I just can't believe more RG's than bikerscouts, and 2 anakins to 1 Gamorrean. I'm hoping Leia will come with alternate hair so you can have her with the helmet off as well, so even 2 of her would be better than two blue anakins.
I just hope we don't find out the chases too soon. And please let one of them be yakface.
-
If that assortment is correct, I am pretty happy. I would have rathered 2 Gams, but hey, can`t have it all! Assuming there is a chase in the 3 multiple character boxes again, maybe we`ll get spirit Yoda in an Anakin box or a solid painted Anakin or something.
Can`t wait to build up some RG and BS troops!
-
___ Exclusive Blackhole Stormtrooper
___ Scout Trooper w/ Speeder Bike Box Set
I need these two, can anyone help?

___ Exclusive Blackhole Stormtrooper
___ Scout Trooper w/ Speeder Bike Box Set

Neither are out yet, so certainly not yet anyway. We don't know details on the bhs at this point at all. The Speeder bike/scout set is a "lottery" in Japan, though I'm sure a few folks have connections that may be able to pull a few, but it's unlikely that anyone will just have tons to share. Ebay is going to be the most likely source for that.
As for that ratio, I'm not digging it. There's no need for multiple spirit Anakin at all. GG is the most obvious choice, but I'd accept 2 Leia more readily as well. Four royal guards over biker scouts is wee bit odd as well, but livable.
What Band Member is that exactly, I may have the instuments for it.
Um, whatever was released in Hong Kong I think? Dale, help me out here. I ordered my box from HLJ in Japan, so got the regular release. The worst part is that I need not only the instrument (though getting it would mean I could just spring for a regular band member) but the band member too, as I have only one. :-[
I think this is the one I need (http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Collectibles/Kubrick/Series_2/Cantina_Band_Member_(Hong_Kong)&image=cantinachase.jpg&img=&tt=)
-
Maybe the chase will be a spirit of yoda figure in the spirit of anakin box
I was hoping for more gammorean guards
-
Th instrument pack you are looking for has the omni box featured prominently. I am lousy with pics, otherwise I would provide them. The regular release has the horns and accordian looking job.
I realize that's about as helpful as wax on stairs...

Do you need this:

or this:

-
Um, whatever was released in Hong Kong I think? Dale, help me out here. I ordered my box from HLJ in Japan, so got the regular release. The worst part is that I need not only the instrument (though getting it would mean I could just spring for a regular band member) but the band member too, as I have only one. :-[
I think this is the one I need (http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?action=view&link=Collectibles/Kubrick/Series_2/Cantina_Band_Member_(Hong_Kong)&image=cantinachase.jpg&img=&tt=)
Yes Brent, that would be the one. My order was from HLJ & I got the stand instrument (Ommni Box) & ordered the other instrument from BBTS when they had them. From what I know, the intrument is called a Bandfill.
It would be this one Adam if I'm not mistaken.

Thanks Dale, that clinches it. I was pretty sure it was the second Adam posted but I wanted to confirm it with your memory since we both only ordered boxes from that series I believe. That stuff is way back around page 100 :o

I have two of that guy- you don't have a stormtrooper you would want to trade, do you? ;D

Heads up all.

I didn`t even see the MO only part, soon as I saw the pic I stopped reading to post here, lol.
Now, this guy *could* have one, and just too lazy to take a pic or doesn`t have a camera, but
I`m not bettin 200$ on that.
-
Its funny...
When I got screwed the guy (not this guy) stole his pic from the same seller.
Same deal, I sent a Postal Money order and got no Bape Fett.
I filed a complaint with the Post office along with a few other people and most of us got our $$ back after the crook started getting letters from the PO.
"My son did this and I apologize..."
Wish I got that Bape Fett though!
I can still dream...

Thanks to our friend in Japan ;D I have a carded Sandtrooper coming my way. All thats left is Boba Fett.

I have a little something on the way that I picked up short awhile ago that eluded me for a long time, should be here next week. ;D :-X
And it just arrived a short time ago, I present the elusive Be@rbrick Wicket from Series 7, ratio 1:192. :)
(http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/Kubricks/Bearbrick%20Wicket%20100.jpg)

Nice!
I saw a few on eBay lately, too rich for my blood.
Do you have the 400% to go with?
-
Yep, I do. Pic is in the other thread. ;)
400% Kubricks (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=13108.435)
I'm in the process of moving & in time will have updated pics of the Kuby's displayed. :)
-
Cool. I like seeing the 400% with the 100% counterparts. Jones`in for that Vader! I hope Robby is able to
aquire enough.
I have a carded R2 on the way (soon to be de-carded!), after that I am pretty much caught up with
what I want (aside from more stormies, sandtroopers etc...). Time to start saving for series 7 and the speeder
bike set (and RAH Boba and Clonetrooper).
I wonder when we will find out what the deal is with the BH Stormie kub. Has to be exclusive somewhere, right?
Medicom doesn`t just make one offs other than for convetions and shows it seems..
-
Damn, nice job Dale. I don't know why I like those bearbricks so much, it's kinda like a disease I suppose. Call me jealous.
-
I think your really going to fire-up a fellow Canadian board member with that mutant Ewok aquisition, Dale. Get ready for a good ribbing. But I got one awile ago too along with the Empire Bearbrick Set.
-
Am I just getting impatient, or is there a serious lack of Kubrick star wars out there this year. All we have received is series 6, a carded Sacul, and preorders for the 400% Darth Vader. No Toys R Us packs, the speederbike set is going to be a b**** to obtain, and 3 more months before series 7 rolls around.
Maybe I'm too accustomed to the Hasbro avalanche, but I'm itchin to get more of these things, and buying dozens of Luke Jedi and X wing from Jeff isn't going to keep me satiated until November. ;)

Slim pickings on ebay for Veers and Tarkin. Which sucks, because I still need a Tarkin...

I need both, but I doubt I'll ever be willing to pay the prices those demand. I have a hard time justifying paying for the 1:48 or 1:96 chase pieces. :-\

Just picked up a Veers. Came at a steep price, but I am done with Series 6. Thanks Stewbacca.

Very nice carded collection Dan, how long till you get the carded Vader?

I fast forward through much of Endor. There are parts though where Ewoks get smoked and I ;D

No, it's better to get them now, particularly the inexpensive ones. The kubricks you pass on for $5.00 today will get more expensive as time goes on, particularly army builders.

I just put it back on the card and got it to fit nicely and I'm afraid to screw around with it again!

Well, it looks good to me! Did you make the rifle?
-
Well, it looks good to me! Did you make the rifle?
The gun came from the Evolution sets released around ROTS.
The Black Pad I used is from the new Saga Sandtrooper, which I think is the same as the last Sandtrooper Hasbro released.
I cut the Amo pack off of it.
-
That's pretty cool! I like how 3 3/4" accessories fit in with kubricks. :)
-
Pretty Sweet...
I recently picked up a white Sandie variant and as an added accessory, I gave him a set of macrobinoculars from the Flashback Luke Figure just to set him apart a bit more from the standard orange version.

Well, with all the toys and what not over there, I`m surpised you can find anything at all. It`s like a Toys R Us over there, without the annoying kids
running around.
I will check and see if I have a set of macro...for my sandtrooper! Pretty good idea actually.
Picked up the Droids R2 today, very cool. It`s a shame the card is so nice, as soon it shall be R2 free.

Guess who came in the mail today...

Nice pick up Roton, but he looks lonely...
Hey Jeff, nice write up on the front page! Nice to see the Kubricks hitting the spotlight now and again.
-
Yes, great right up Jeff. Very indepth and informative, love it!
-
All this time I've been collecting Kubricks and I never knew what the word meant. Has anyone else read the Wikipedia entry?
Kubrick (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kubrick)
-
That was a neat read, Simon.
Anyone else hope we'll see a 1000% Star Wars Kubrick someday? 8)
-
Thats pretty cool, 9 bricks. Clever. Medicom impresses me more and more each day.
-
That was a neat read, Simon.

Oh how I wish for the day I see one of those... :P
-
I can't imagine what kind of prices they (Star Wars 1000% Kubricks) would go for. :P Perhaps $500-600 depending on production numbers.
On a cheaper note, I just got a message for Medicom to say I won the Biker Scout lottery!! ;D That is only the 2nd one I have won. The other was Leia (I think ???). I did put in a few entries but fortunately I was able to get a win for a change.
-
Congrats on the Biker Scout lottery Simon, be sure to post lotsa pictures when you get it. :)
-
How soon till we see these at Ebay again, Jeff?
-
Congrats Simon, lucky dog.
-
How soon till we see these at Ebay again, Jeff?
I think they are scheduled to show up in Japan around November and they should flood eBay not too long after that.
-
Congrats on the lottery Simon, right on! 8)
As for the 1000% SW Kubs, yep those suckers will be a high price I'm afraid. :-\
-
Simon, congrats! Looking forward to some pics when you get it.
1000% SW kub... I hope not, I will never own it $$$$$
How about 500% Chewie or 600%? hehe I know Madcow would pop a vein
if they made that one.
-
Congrats Simon!
It will be interesting to see if the bike is different from the first release, and if the biker scout has special markings to differentiate it from the series 7 release.
-
Not sure about the Bike, but Simon pointed out a while back that it looks like there are going to be some differences between the Scouts...
Has anyone else noticed that the Biker Scouts look a bit different? Looks like a dirty and clean version.

I would overdose on a 1000% Crackbrick, especially if it was a Stormtrooper.
I got Lucky on the Lucky Draw as well.
A friend in Japan that I have delt with before, mostly Microman, emailed me to tell me that if he won I could buy his.
He emailed today with the good news.
Rock and roll baby!
Hey, anyone here need any Jawas?
I have to of them to trade of sell.
Oh, also want to echo what a good job on the front page, Bricks are getting some deserved exposure!

I really hope they do a few more vehicles or beasts. An Open Belly Tauntaun seems very Medicom-ish. a 400% Rancor. A Land Speeder perhaps. AT-ST or something like that.
Seems like they are using the exact same Speeder from the first set. That marking are the same anyway.
-
Anyone want to hook me up with the Biker w/ Speeder? :'(

a 400% Rancor.
Now that would be amazing! :o
-
Anyone want to hook me up with the Biker w/ Speeder? :'(
There are none out to be hooked up with just yet. They are being sent out by Medicom in November sometime.
I had a thought with the Blackhole Stormtrooper. When it was displayed at the Medicom Show, it was sanding next to the RAH Blackhole Stormie. The RAH figure had a price of 17000yen on it but the Kub had no price. I wonder if they will package them together, maybe limited to 1000 or something like that.

Sounds like a good theory, but I hope it's wrong. If that blackhole stormtrooper is limited to 1000 I will be sad. I've all ready resigned myself to the fact that it will probably be limited enough that I will only be getting one- at an edition size of 1000 and as part of a two pack it might be none instead :-\

Well if they are pachaged together I wouldn't mind becuase i would like both, but i hope not that limited.

I only said a 1000 as that seems to be the usual limit with the RAH figs. Maybe it will be unlimited like the the last SW RAH figs.
-
a 400% Rancor.
Now that would be amazing! :o
I second that! :o :o
How about Jabba and dais/throne though?

Oh well. Depending on what shipping would have cost, I could have gotten him a bit cheaper. No big deal, I think I paid a fair price for him.

I need to raise some $$$ and i'm debating on selling my Logray. He's legit and still sealed in the bag. Anyone have an idea of what i'd get for it? I know they've been popping up repeatedly on Ebay which is another reason i'm thinking about it. He's a great figure, definite #3 fav in my collection but when I think about what I could buy with the proceeds i'm tempted...
-
I'll give you $100 for it. Just say the word and you can have the money in 5 minutes (assuming you have paypal).

Cute, but NO! Lol, I paid more than that for it and about i'm not about to lose $$$. :P

It was worth a shot ;). If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it? I might still be interested.

I paid $130 dlvd for it. It's a really tough decision but I just recently found out that Plan B made The Dark Crystal busts and i'm a HUGE fan of that movie. Stupid me, I didn't know about these and now most of them are out of print and going for good $$$. If anyone's got a Skesil The Chamberlain and UrYod the Numerologist, i'll make an even swap... ;D

Indeed.
I want to as well.
I just bought some Oscar cases and I'm getting two more for the 4 carded Bricks I have.

Hi
This is a question to anyone who lives in HK. I'm thinking of making a trip over before xmas, as was wandering if there are loads of shops which sell Kubs and are they a good price compared to EBAY?
If so does anyone have any recommendations.
Thanks in advance.
-
As much as I like the look of the carded figures, not gonna happen, on a side note though I did organise to get another 10 tie pilots and 2 death star troopers, should be here sometime next week
-
Reorganised the little buggers tonight till i get a set of stands for them
(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y221/darthhemish/DSC04657.jpg)
I've got another 12 coming 10 tie fighter pilots and 2 deathstar troopers should be here either Tuesday or Wenesday.

Looking good Hemish!

Nice looking arrangement! It's always nice to see a blocky army assembling to defend the bricky empire from those angular rebels. ;D

great job setting up those Kubs, Hemish!!!

It was so your fault, dont try those Canadian mind games with me sir.
I remember the day like it was yesterday.
Hey Hemish would you like to buy some of these little plastic figures from me?
Sure Dale as long as they arent too addictive
Oh no Hemish they arent addictive at all dont worry about it, infact as soon as you get this first set you wont want anymore ever again muhahahahahaha
6 series later and god knows how much spent........
Thanks Dale

Made the trek to Ikea a few days ago, picked up a few Detolf cases.
Well worth the 60 bucks and hell ride to Philly.
Couple in progress pics for anyone who happens to be bored.
For the risers, I used the ones I had. However, they are textured on top, and kubs do not like to stand on them. I got a piece of black foamboard at AC Moore and cut it to fit the shelves. If they still fall a little, I will put put brads in the board, so the kubs will have a footpeg.

that set-up looks fantastic sithbaker!! i've got 2 ikeas about an hour and a half apart from me (in stoughton,ma and new haven, ct...about same distance from my house)...i was looking into the detolfs but the other case (i forget the name...it was $99 and was untreated wood) caught my eye as well and i'm having a hard time choosing between the two for my own collections (besides kubricks).
you did a great job setting those up...your collection is incredible (i don't think i even have 3/4 of your collection!!) and i love all those stormtroopers!!! 8)

Great loooking arrangement- It's nice to see them all visible from multiple angles like that.
Congrats on the collection, it is very impressive.

that set-up looks fantastic sithbaker!! i've got 2 ikeas about an hour and a half apart from me (in stoughton,ma and new haven, ct...about same distance from my house)...i was looking into the detolfs but the other case (i forget the name...it was $99 and was untreated wood) caught my eye as well and i'm having a hard time choosing between the two for my own collections (besides kubricks).
you did a great job setting those up...your collection is incredible (i don't think i even have 3/4 of your collection!!) and i love all those stormtroopers!!! 8)
They did have some other cases, but I liked the mostly glass Detolf the best.
One was called Bertby, I think, and you can mount it on a wall. It wasn`t as deep, but it looked good. I fit 3 of these in a Nissan Altima with the rear seats folded down, I think most of these cases would fit ok in a car doing that.

Adam, thanks for sharing the pics!

Nice grab! Rupin is a great seller too, tell him Adam (Sith_baker) says hello!
I got my droids R2 from him not long ago.
-
Nice score Matt, Congrats! :)
Nice display Adam, I agree the Detolf cases are great with lots of room. I'm going to IKEA soon & will be looking in getting the Skogen & a couple of the Bertby cases. I have to wait & see if I have room for the Detolf cases before I get any tho.
Great pics from Mini-Rock in the Sideshow's 1/4 Statues (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=6433.345) thread displaying his collection, nice to see those cases set up. 8)
-
wow.
I'd love to have some of those cases, really displays some amazing stuff very well.
Bricks only for me, I can't afford anything else...well, I can't afford these either.

-
I was wondering, how a blacklight would look with the stormies and such... anyone ever try it?
-
never tried it with blacklight (i have my Kubricks on display on a bookcase from Target)
incredible display, adam...i am very impressed with all the Kubs you've amassed (especially the SW collection)...all opened too!! i have to be honest...a piece of me squirmed as i was opening up my first chase fig (imperial officer/veers)...after seeing everything opened you realize how much these things need to be opened and displayed in order to fully appreciate the line itself. great job on the setup again!!
-
Adam, just curious, is this case sealed on the corners to prevent dust? Also is this the same case that you can build connected to another?
-
:o
I think that says it all !
-

Cases aren`t sealed, so dust can/will get in. Small gaps where the door is. It is sealed on the top/bottom and rear though.
These cannot be connected, as far as I could tell.

Just a heads-up, there is a ponda baba on ebay with a bin of 110 and 4.00 shipping in the U.S.-

Or best offer too, someone might be able to get it for 100 if the seller is in a good mood.

Ahh, another one bites the dust. I'd like to say that i'm to blame but addiction is a hereditary disease and that leaves me free from all legal responsibilites. Lol... 8)
-
I'm sorry darknight2k4, there is no help.
I suggest selling everything else, and creating a kubrick fund. My balance is currently negative, but I hope to climb back up after series 7, and the blackhole stormtrooper, and 400% Darth Vader, and the other surprises we still don't know about.
I guess the only hope is to not feel pressured to be a completist- keeping up on Kubricks is expensive enough, I can't imagine playing catch-up on the whole line-
-
Ha!
Once you start there is no turning back!
Here is my case, it has changed since this pic, but this will give you an idea.

I only have series 5 and 6 kubricks, but Im getting sand troopers :) I can thank SWAN for getting me hooked ::)

It's all Mad Cows fault ! Damn you brother ! ;)
Nice display case. I like that. I may have to find one like it...
Sooooooo
Who has extras to help the new kubaholic ! lol.
-
Very cool display case there, Crackbrick. I love that it's just big enough to fit the Kubricks (the middle 3 shelves anyway), without a ton of wasted display space above each one's head - though an extra half inch wouldn't have hurt. What's that case actually for? My only guess (based on the holes in the shelves) is that it's made to display a collection of shot glasses. Is that right? Where'd you get it, and how much was it? (sorry if I missed the details on it already)
I suppose it was a little tricky lining some of 'em up without them falling through the holes, eh?
-
What's that case actually for?

Golf balls. The shelves are actually flipped - usually the "holes" (they're more like craters) are on top and you set the golf balls in that. I have a similar case (for golf balls) that I bought at Target for about $25.
-
Oh no, you'd don't collect golf balls too, do you Mikey?
-
Some great guesses!
Its actually for coins.
Got it at Micheals.
On sale for $30 sells for $40.
Not all Bricks fit, like Vader, Ig-88 etc.
But the divits for the coins work out well with others that may be a bit to tall, just stick their head in it and the fit well.
You can stager two rows of Bricks.
Put shorter Bricks on top and ones you won't mind not seeing the legs on the bottom.
I have to take a new pic to show you how I have them set up now.
Crack
-

Just from courses I've played. Most of them sell a ball with their logo on it. It's a nice little break from all the geeky Star War **** I've got.

Just checking out the bay, the seller chr747 has been putting up the Toys R Us Exclusive Boxset 2 (http://cgi.ebay.com/ToysRus-Japan-5-Star-Wars-Kubrick-Medicom-Luke-3PO-Ewok_W0QQitemZ270032524598QQihZ017QQcategoryZ48972QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem) for a bin of $19.99. Shipping is $15. so if your looking for this set, keep an eye out as he has had 4 of them bin'd thus far.
-
I noticed honorious has something like 50 stacked up that he is selling- looks like there was a good clearance at TRU Japan!
-
I wish I could get my hands on the first set for that price !
-

Yup, that is what happened. A week or three ago TRU had them on clearance.
Great deal for anyone who needs it, most are about 35 shipped now!
-
that's a nice deal on that set...i may finally register on ebay to pick up one of those at that price....
-
Yay I finally got my sand trooper kubrick and my cantina band member kubrick(hes spoken for sorry trading him for another sandy :D) I love these sand trooper kubricks!
By the Way if anyone wants a slave leia kubrick PM me and Ill see if we can work something out ;)

This little guy is known to be 1:192. Guess who the seller is?

Actually they are not his photos. They are a seller by the name of planetoftheapes on YJN. I don't know why honorious keeps using his photos.

Maybe the same guy? Or maybe they sell stuff together, one on eBay and one on YJA?
-
I've thought that my self actually. It is quite possible but I don't think so. He has a different selling style to honorious. And the stuff they sell on YJN and eBay are quite different except for the Star Wars Kubs.

Hi my name is Simon and I'm a Kubaholic. It's been 2 months since my last fix.
BTW, why did we chage the thread name to Kubrick Addicts Anonymous. I may have an addiction but it is one I certainly don't want to kick. Can we change to "Kubricks - come get some sugar, baby"?
-
And I don't think it's too anonymous anymore. ;D
-
What the frigg is going on with all those Kubs? That's INSANE! Makes me seriously wonder about Kubricks and maybe they're not as RARE as Medicom leads on to be. What's next, an abundance of Early Bird Kits or Max Rebo sets??? I used to think Kubs were a nice investment as well as a fun to collect. The prices are just going to drop to nothing eventually if this keeps up.
-
Hey I have a quick question, which is more rare the hong kong or the japanese kubrick sand trooper? Or are they the same rarity?
-

The Sandtrooper ratio was the same for both HK and JP. It was 3 Orange and 1 White per case of 12. The only regional deviation in series 2 was the Cantina Band Member....

You either got all orage or all white. 3 boxes from a MC had the oranges. 1 box had the whites. Kinda like with Han Carb. 3 boxes out of the MC had the block, 1 box had the hibernation sickness Han.
On rarity, I don`t think Medicom ever claims stuff to be rare. They just make the stuff and put it out there, then ebayers and other resellers start with all the "very rare! Hard to find!" crap.
-
OMG Im stupid I meant the cantina band member, sorry :-[
-
Which cantina band member is rare, guess it depends were your order came from I guess. Most of us got our orders I think from HLJ & only got the Japan (http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?direct=Collectibles/Kubrick/Series_2/Cantina_Band_Member_(Japan)) version. Had to hunt for the Hong Kong (http://www.jedidefender.com/gallery/imageFolio.cgi?direct=Collectibles/Kubrick/Series_2/Cantina_Band_Member_(Hong_Kong)) version which BBTS had in stock for a good price.
I would say the Hong Kong version as most of our orders came from Japan.

Okey dokey thanks a bunch!

Nice. I wish to touch them.
Indeed.
I want to as well.
I just bought some Oscar cases and I'm getting two more for the 4 carded Bricks I have.
They work perfectly.
I put two loose Sandtroops in with the carded one, I have little stands that connect, looks good.
Going to get Sith to take good pics for me to show you guys.

Please give more information regarding oscar cases (I recently ran into a few carded babies I want to incarcerate)

Thank you for the link! ;D

Thanks for the link to Oscar's Cases. Speaking of cases, does anyone know how to get a hold of those small acrylic cases for loose Kubricks I've seen on eBay?
-
I think those cases are long gone by now, released twice I think. I haven't seen any around since I got mine back in the end of October last year. Keep your eyes open tho, ya never know!
-

Also in addition to DSJ's reply, try checking out local shops that carry baseball cards. I've come across some acrylic cases (that look similar to the ones long gone on the website) that are normally used to house baseball/football/hockey cards and some work perfectly for housing treasured Kubricks...Other than that, the only real place is just to keep your eyes open on ebay, i usually see those cases up for sale every once in awhile.
-
I've not been following Kubricks too closely anymore, but I gotta say, Im really missing the little guys.
Let's say I wanted to get back into them. What would I need to expect to pay to pick up a full collection, including chase figures from all series, boxed sets, and carded figures? No Bearbricks of 400%, but everything else Star Wars Kubrick.
-
Well, I'll take a stab at it-
Early bird set $120
Luke and Leia speederbike $120
2 Toys R Us box sets $60
Max Rebo box set $150
Series 1 $90
Series 2 $90
Series 3 $75
Series 4 $65
Series 5 $40
Series 6 $40
Series 1 Chase Fetts $280
Series 2 Chase Sandtrooper $40
Series 2 alternate band member $15

Series 4 Chase dagobah vader $75
Series 4 Luke Stormtrooper $50
Series 4 Han Stormtrooper $50
Series 5 Ponda Baba $100
Series 5 Blue snaggletooth $125
Series 5 Han Endor $25
Series 6 Veers $100
Series 6 Tarkin $125
Series 6 wedge $25
Carded Fett $275
Carded Luke $50
Carded Leia holo $50
Carded Droids R2 $80
Carded Parcos Sandtrooper $225
Carded Vader $200
Carded Sacul $275
400% Fett ESB $80
400% Fett Jedi $230
400% Luke and Han $175
400% Vader $90
That $3,905 if my math is right. Definately a tough hobby to play catch up in.
I just grabbed a lot recently in order to get the carded figs, so I am going to be selling or trading all 6 basic sets, an early bird set, the TRU box sets, and the luke/leia speeder bike set. I wasn't even going to mention it here since I figured everyone had nearly all of those, but if anyone is interested in the lot or a good chunk of it, let me know.
Update 10/5: Sorry for creating a classified on this thread- I posted the collection in the classifieds area under Dan's for sale list.

I'll be interested in the speederbike , series 3 and any stormies.
pm me, if you wanna talk prices and stuff. As Im in England.

Is General Veers just more popular then Tarkin? They are the same chase ratio correct?
One just sold for $200.00 on Ebay. Its only the second one I have seen in the last 2 months.
-
The crazy thing is that Veers wasn't even in the title or description! Of course, two people went back and forth for a week trying to be highest bidder. Congratulations. I did get the Tarkin though :)
-
Looks like you got a decent deal on the Tarkin. I had my eye on the Veers until the bidding went crazy.

$200., holy crap! :o
