Oh good god no, that stuff is for Pokemon collectors!  :P

How many more e-mails are we going to get on those 3D Puzzle Globes.  ::)
The Game Day! Lets play unique puzzle!

They sure are pushing them, lol.

I don't know what you guys are talking about.  Those globes are a big seller at my shop!   ;) ;) ;)

The fact that they take exactly 23 minutes to complete must be a big selling point  :D

Very nice. I like both chases (Yak more so than Anakin, but still)
That makes 5 & 5 now on the chases we have been keeping track of.
Do we have to beg to know what else you got?  ;D  Or is it private stuff that you don`t feel comfortable sharing ....  :P :o ;D

Might try for a Jorge in the meantime though...

Perfect time for it, if only because I just bought one.  BIN's are ranging between $209 (I think there's one on for that now) and $225.  An auction ended in the last day or two for $191 or so. 

As for Anakin, I'm going away for a couple of weeks, so I'm not worrying about him.  I'm hoping my guess for a price drop will come to fruition.  I like that they're mixing the uber-chase up a bit now too and Robby had both, makes it more exciting than just expecting whatever other people pull first.  I'm hoping that one that Honorius BIN'd becomes more the norm, if not a little high.  Be great to get one for around $100.  Not holding my breath though. 

My box set is ordered and wrapped up and I, via my buddy in Japan, am in the lottery for the BHS.  If he scores that, it's only Anakin and a 400% Fett that I need to be as complete as I want to be.  I probably should ultimately get a Logray, but too many scams out there for me to ever be confident of a real one.  I think there's a seller on ebay with two of them right now and a whopping 27 feedback rating.  Call me paranoid, but I ain't buying one of those. 

Saw you Sacul win, nice!
Yeah, Logray is touchy. If I hadn`t gotten mine when/where I did, I probably would not get one now.

Is it me, or did the boards just go all wonky?
White, light blue and blue?

So funny 2 replies from you two..

I`ll keep watching for an Anakin for ya.
It is good to see that we didn`t all get the same chase from the Robby cases. Then we aren`t all going after the same one too, heh.
I`m good with SW kubs till that box set comes out next year, can`t wait!
Might try for a Jorge in the meantime though...

Dang, I'd have grabbed it at that price.  Oh well, I guess I can buy it off Honorius for $160 next month. :P

Maybe he`ll lay off the bidding now if it was for his personal collection, heh.

Finally!   ;D

The box was waaaaay mangled and covered in bright green "INSPECTED BY US CUSTOMS AND BORDER PATROL" tape.   Customs opened the main shipping box, TWO of the Master Cases inside, AND one of the Boxes of 12 inside one of the Master Cases.  ::)

First time that has ever happened to me, I guess 7 Master Cases from Japan is enough to set them off.   :P


Anyway, since two of the Master Cases were opened by Customs, I decided to take one of those as mine (the other will be broken up to be split among 3 guys):



At least Customs didn't steal my rare chase figure!   ;)

Jeesh! Can`t believe they opened them like that! Hell, Founder over at KW got 68 boxes and they breezed right through! Must have been bored in Chicago last week..

Only the 2nd Yak I have seen from Robby cases, nice score!

Yeah, that is scary to think that Honorius is willing to buy at $130-$150 thinking there is still room to flip for profit.   :o

Like Brent said, hopefully more will leak out as more Master Cases are shipped/arrive.

I haven't noticed Ningyoushi or ActionHQ listing any yet, have they?  That is at least two places to watch for cheaper Anakins...

Jeff

Even Spanky had Yakface this go around.

Any idea why your stuff was in customs so long?
So far I have had good luck, in and out of customs in a matter of minutes according to the USPS site.

I reckon the 2nd high bidder on this figure is a pretty good indication of how many Anakins there are in Japan. I've seen about 5 in total. I would say that Medicom has made this figure purposely rarer than Yakface, again as a nice tribute to the vintage line.

http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=250055819558

Maybe all the Anakins made their way over here?
Out of 4 MC opened, 3 Anakins and only 1 Yakface.

Just discussing with drewlam by email that the Yakface being in the Gammorean Guard box is really quite annoying.  I had a guy back out on a set on me and I was thinking no worries as I can just sell the sealed case on ebay but now I can't because I need that third Gam. guard to finish off my own set :-\  So lots of extras out there of other figures because you can't complete four sets out of a master case that has Yakface in it.  Looking like the cases with the chase Anakin would be the better balanced of the options :-\

Same thing happened with blue/red snags, all part of the game  ;D
Really, Gam should have been at least 2 per box of 12 if you asked me (and even if you didn`t! ).

Of the 5 cases I had, 3 had Anakin, 1 had Yak and the last one still hasn`t been cracked open yet. Usually all of the cases we get have the same chase fig...




PS. my case was #23 or 24 (too lazy to go back a few pages and look).
The cases were all over with the numbers this time though, no consecutive numbers this time around.

PPS: Over 1000 posts, woohoo!

This one is just above the Holo Leia for me. Not very interested unless I can get it cheapie cheap cheap.
I`d rather splurge and get me a Jorge.
