Couple things went wrong.
First showin on FB,before the official mail came in.
Different times of international countries.
As PGM you at least had to got the chance to pre-order one.
But cause of the lowe edition size,sold out.

Because this is based on the fight scene with Vader,they should have the same amount of edition size.
Now there are 5 times more Vaders than Luke.

Actually, the only thing that went wrong was the decision to only make 500 of these.

I agree that 500 is too low. No doubt. But I don't think they needed to make 2,500. Vader sells better than any other character, and I think there were many unsold extras that were liquidated for Vader and many of the others in the McQuarrie line. 1,000 seems about right to me. I do feel bad for all the PG members who want this and can't pre-order. Frustrating.

I bought it yesterday on ebay.
It's about the same price in dollars including shippin and ebay custom clearance as I would pay when GG would sent it to me.
There shippin rates are high,and when it arrives over here,customs will charge high price for clearence,duty is normal price.
So I'm not a very dissapointed PGM.
Because of this Luke bust I desided to buy myself the Vader aswell.
I did it on friday first instead of bying this Luke bust.
Cause I wasn't realy looking on the ES.
I wanted too do multiple orders casuse I wanna have Jef aswell.
Now let's wait for more exclusives to come....!

Boy I'm really disappointed in GG right now for this. Releasing this with such a small ES is one thing (I honestly don't have a problem with that) but putting the pre-order window over a holiday weekend when a huge amount of people are out of town just plain stinks. This has been one of my most wanted MBs for years now and because I took a few days off from the internet my only way to obtain it is to pay inflated aftermarket prices?

So very true. I don't have all the McQuarrie busts but I would have bought this one for sure.
