Man I hope my luck gets a little better and I win the 5 pack. It will make losing all the other bust raffles okay.

This is going to make or break a lot of people. I've read a few posts on other boards from people who say they'll sell their entire collections if they don't win this.
And if you're trying to get something like Boba, Dooku or a stupid "rare" Clone, after this raffle would be a good time (don't they ship soon after?). When Neyo and all them came out, you could get Boba for around $100 or so because losers shelled out so much money for these.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

If you thought the odds were bad before then you better believe they are bad now. I will be literally jumping with joy if I win one of these, but Im not holding my breath. At least this should be the end of it all........right...
And ya I think this may make for an interesting Christmas. A lot of people are not going to win this, so hopefully Ill be able to get myself some nice old pieces for not much at all.
On that note: Anyone selling Snow Bunny Padme for $100 send me a PM lol

There's been too many Troopers for a few years. I don't get why people feel the need to spend tons on a friggin' repaint with the same exact pose as the other ones.

I agree with you 100%.
I hope to get them but at the retail price. It's insane how much they seem to be going fo.

Things like that don't help the view non-collectors have on comic/sci-fi geeks. Spending $300+ for a Clone Trooper just because he has a red stripe instead of a green one? Come on people, just buy a white one and have someone paint it. It's not going to matter to people you try to impress when they come over, because I doubt they're going to check the bottom of every bust or see if you have the box. And if you have no intention of selling, why bother paying so much?
