Oy!  I need to hurry my ass up and PM the last couple folks that I bought these for at SDCC then!  Guess I'll cross you off that list Daniel, but no worries, since there were still a few others in need!  ;)

I have to say that it's bull**** that SWS.com was charging a dollar more for the Holo Leia with Starcase at SDCC, than they are on their damned website now.  What's the deal with that?  >:(

Well, for those of you who I've PM'd about having these for you already, my shipping costs will likely be cheaper than what SWS.com would be charging you, so hopefully it's at least a wash.  Not to mention that I'll pack your stuff up 100x better than those assclowns will.  ;)

I ordered two, and they charged $8 in shipping.  ::)

But, I skipped the holo Emperor (I should say, missed) so I was eager to pick this Leia up.

And I'm a sucker for things on that OTC cardback.

I think $35 for two of a con exclusive is pretty reasonable.

And just like that they are gone.  Im sure more will show up in a few days less the case. Then a week later more will show up less the case and in non-mint condition.

Well, I missed out...again.

I really don't care, I'm sick of paying out the ass for these lame exclusives.

I completely missed this  >:(

If any kind soul has an extra from SDCC that they wouldn't mind selling me, I would be very appreciative.

Thanks for the heads up.  Since I'm paying $8 for shipping, I reluctantly threw in the damn Wedge.... >:(

Ouchers... you know that WEDGE has a ship-date of October or some such...
If you didnt specifically state that you want 'separate' shipping, then you might
be outta luck.  SWS has been know to NOT hold back early stuff while waiting
for later stuff to come in.   I mention it ONLY to help you prevent a minor
tragedy with SWS standard-operating-procedure...

"Good Luck Jim"

Han shot FIRST. Luke threw TWICE. And it was THX-1138 who wasn't at his post on the big screen back in '77. And I first learned that Vader was Luke's dad in the cinemas at the Tampa Bay Mall in 1980.

Well - I ordered one, would have preferred to get two so I could have an opener. Perhaps they'll do another round in a week or so of either figures w/o cases or figures that aren't mint at a slightly lower price and I'll order another one then.

Well it looks like it's true, from the front page of Mousedroid.com.
