Premium Format C-3PO & R2-D2 Premium Format Set

[Coffee Papa Bear]

No but they mention less than 30 left for the regular. I have ordered from a local retailer earlier.

Thought it was open edition.

True, but sooner or later they'll stop production of this piece.
It seems they're deciding to close this and move on.

Anyway congrats on getting the regular. Love the weathering on them!

 

[Coffee Papa Bear]

Thanks. Personally I think the weathered piece looks better.

Got cancel notice! Errrrr! No ex sucks! Even though both looks great ex has the super low ES and chrome too!

So thats just boosted the value of the Exclusive 10 fold!!!!

Just got mine and geezes these are beautiful and you guys are nutts LOL ok from my standpoint at least
R2 is really nice and has good weight, C-3PO is crazy heavy and that base is for weightlifting!!!
oh and those lights .................. hmmmmmmmmmmm ............... nice

man the ultimate droids and everything else just belongs in trash (well going to use my medi for sound ) this really is a slap in my face as to how anyone incl myself could have accepted the off-scale-ness of the medi R2 w the C3PO!!!!!

Love it Jeff! Massice congras my friend! Where are the pictures!!!

Do the two pistons under c3po's head move or not?

In this email for SS.

 

[hofmanjc]

I was hoping it would hang around a long time like the Stormtrooper so I didn't have to get it right away. Wonder if they will still be getting more once the last 30 are sold, like another shipment down the line.

I'm sure there were others that were waiting until a later date for various reasons. It does seem, according to that email, that they're going to stop production sooner than most were hoping.

They didn't move on the real one, they don't actually attach to anything that moves.

 

[Therivox]

confirmed. These will be the last bunch of the lot. place your orders in now.

I had to flex to hold one for me and i'll pay it off in november.

Confirmed it with a CS rep

So there we have it.
These aren't going to last much longer at less than 30 remaining.

I hope they move on now to another Jedi or Sith.

Gonna try this build in picture hosting

[ambasah]

There will be 30 now and 30 more in a few weeks/months from now, and another 30 in the new year, and so on.

SS up to their old lying tricks.

 

[myc]
