I just picked up Slave 1 for $168 shipped. Still need to get the acrylic cover and Boba bust to go with it!

Not a bad deal at all.

I just got the Tie Fighter SE for about $183 shipped :D :D :D

Now all I gotta do is sell my regular version.
Only $110 shipped people, what a steal!

Damm where did you get it that cheap? I thought the $200 i found was good.

Also anyone find the Case for Tie Fighter and Slave 1?

OX, you're exactly right. Mike told me the same thing. He did tell me of a new product Code 3 plans on releasing next year. I don't know who the hell will buy it right away after all this but it does sound cool.

I'm glad to hear it. I do like their stuff.

A smart collectible manufacturer understands that perceived sustainable value and fear of a sellout drive sales, which in turn drives perceived value, and so on. If everyone knows they can get it later cheaper, they will. Quality product is an absolute must, but edition sizes, marketing and initial prices also have to be well tuned to your market. It's a very tricky business. :cool:
 
What are the odds of the X-Wing and Slave I coming down in price? They have the same edition size of 5000 as the Tie Fighter.

Mike at Razor's Edge I believe still has TIE cases, haven't seen the Slave I cases in some time, you might have to go with a custom on it.

This is apparently due to a clearing of the warehouse by Code 3, didn't the X-Wing already sell out at Code 3?

As far as the Slave I Mike has the SE version for $199 on his site and $209 via eBay. Definitely a huge drop from original retail which is what I paid.

I got the regular Slave I from mike for about $160, so only $40 more for the SE is a pretty good deal. I wouldn't be surprised to see the value for these Tie Fighters to go back up to where they were in 6 months to a year after this influx. This is just a liquidation of the stock they had so dealers got them for incredibly cheap.

Did you see them on the site or is this something you would have to ask about. I looked all over the site and never found them.

He should be getting his shipment of covers next week.

And I got a good price on the Tie SE because he had a damaged box special.
 
I just ordered a custom cover for my Slave 1. I used the measurements gives on Code 3's website. Hopefully it fits right! :eek:

Let me know how it fits and how much it cost because I may be in the market for one. Is the case made to fit the ship in flight or landed?

I will let you know. It was about $85 shipped. I got it for "flight" mode. I think the Tie and X-Wing cover will actually fit it in "landed" mode, but I really wanted to display it in flight mode.

$85 is a lot for a case but I just don't know how I want to display these now that I have to SE's that need covers. I've pretty much ruled out the Detolf idea and they would fit great on the entertainment center but I should really get covers if I'm going to do that.

Keep checking his eBay account too. That's where I saw them the last time I got a couple from him.

The X-Wing cover will fit the Tie Fighter correct? May have found some.


Check the website, not 100% sure. I think the X-Wing cover is 1" taller.

I doubt it. I have always been pleased with his prices and excellent service. Somebody grab that TIE Fighter. It's a great item at a great price.


I think that's the last one as I got the other bad box one and will have it tomorrow :D :D :D :D :D
