I bought an entire box of Alien series 2 Kubs. There was a 50% chance of getting the chase, but of course, I didn't get one. I hate stinkin' blind box chases.

Here are some of the other Kubricks that go with Jabba (maybe we can change the name of this thread?)
Awesome. Some new Kubricks I am interested in.

Some updated news on Jabba.
One bummer is the cardboard dio is not available to the public, it is only for the stores to use as a display.

You can get the display, but you have to buy a "master case" of 4 boxes, which will probably run almost $700. Since there apparently will be chase figures, there is an additional incentive to buy master cases for the more insane Kubrick fans among us.

I have some older ones if anyone is interested in them.
From my understanding, pretty much. Each box will have 12 figures, in the following breakdown:
2x Luke ( Jedi Knight )
3x C-3PO & Salacious Crumb
3x R2-D2 ( Jabba's Barge )
2x Chewbacca ( Boushh's Prisoner )
1x Amanaman
1x Bib Fortuna
Apparently, the basic set of 6 will yield you a Jabba, as each will come with a different Jabba piece.
So yes, you will get 4 full sets with a master case, plus a couple chases probably, and more R2s, C-3POs, and Jedi Luke's than you could ever want.

Thanks...that's a stupid way to do it because they're punishing their fans who are the only ones who would do this...or dealers. oh well.
i would like to pick up Jabba and Crumb(C-3PO).
Honestly, I thought the 1 per master case diorama was a dumb idea at first, as I thought it was a gimmick to get people to buy entire cases. But I wasn't thinking about retailers (sometimes I forget that in Japan, you can walk into a store and buy Star Wars Kubs 
). It is something that probably doesn't cost any extra, and is a cool thing for hardcore collectors and stores to have, so in that sense, I think it is pretty neat.

I am crazy for Jabba, but not that crazy (I don't think...). I'd love the cardboard display thing, but it's not worth paying so much extra to get a master case.
I will probably have to try and get the chases, though, which is something that I don't normally do.

Wonder if it would be worth it to buy a master and then sell off the excess?

Well that's what a lot of people do, or at least they did when Kubricks were quite so expensive. I guess the answer is, it depends. Unfortunately, if the past is any indication, you won't even get all of the chases by buying a master case, so you'd probably still have to spend a fair amount on whatever it is that you missed. I've even heard of people getting no rare chases in a master case (I believe you usually get one rare chase and 1 or 2 common chases per master case).
It might actually work out, but it would be a fair amount of work, and depending on demand and how many people try it, you might get stuck with a bunch of stuff you can't sell.
Is anyone here interested in buying a basic set of 6 + Jabba for like $125 + shipping if I were to get a master case? That's about a $50 discount over getting a box of 12. I'm not sure I'd want to get a master case, but if I could line up some people who wanted to get them I'd be more inclined to look into the matter.
I am very interested---Pm me if you want to do this :chew

I might be down, but $125? These guys are over $20 a piece?

Well, that includes Jabba remember.
If you get a box of 12, you pay around $50 more but only get a bunch of extra Lukes, C-3POs, and R2s for the difference. They'll be hard to get rid of because everyone will have extras.
