That's probably why the tool is keeping the bidder's ID private. :rolleyes2

Let's see: $1,200.00 for a mini-bust.
Hummmm.
HOLY CRAP!!!



What if the bottom drops out?

$1,200 is an awful lot of dough for a shoulder pad and an imprint on the base (the only two real differences between this and the Chrome Stormtrooper).

I wouldn't pay more than $200 for it on a good day. Not crazy about chrome for non-metallic characters. For $1,200 (at least) you could buy a about 8 FS Bowen statues or SS premium format Vader, Luke, Han, and Obi-Wan -- as opposed to a measly little chrome stormtrooper. Oh well, to each his own.

Again, why don't they just stop chroming everything and make new stuff.
GIVE ME A LANDO DAMN IT!

Lando is apparently coming. Someone posted a pix either here or in rebelscum from ComicCom that showed Lando in the palace guard outfit. While the Cloud City costume is my fav, that one looked really nice. Excellent sculpt. Removable helmet. Hopefully they'll do a Clooud city variant. No word yet on when it's slated to come out, but with their release schedule, maybe 2008.

DAMN IT PRIMAL! :stick:
There are so many good pieces that should be done, and insted they just CHROME the DAMN pieces they made already! Chrome Sandtrooper, Chrome Jango, Chrome Vader, CHROME VADER STATUE! :banghead:

I got into it after seeing how cool the Stormtroopers looked. I tried REAL hard not to get sucked in but I couldn't help it. The only good thing is since I'm only collecting the Ep 4, 5, 6 charatures that it's a real small line. And since the only come out like 3 busts a year it doesn't hurt to much in the wallet. I hope they are at the NY Javits show so I can...... eh I'm lazy I'm not doing anything but sitting on my fat ass venting. Who am I kidding.
LANDO!

I thought u guys were talking about variant costumes in which case I would rather have a Skiff Lando instead of the Bespin one.

I want both.
Then again I want the Bespin Han, Luke, & Leia from there also.
But really would like a luke from Return in a full size with the green saber.
