Sideshow 1/6 Imperial Probe Droid

[TonTon]

It's good they're re-releasing this one, I think a number of folks missed out and resorted to high second-market prices, but strange to not include the snow base for this. Why not just raise the price $10. So now I have the "exclusive" snow base cover since i bought the first release?

 

[Darth Madden]

I just saw it and didn't notice this one didn't have the snow base... weird. I guess I got the exclusive too.

 

[evenflow]

I may pick one up that base does look terrible. If its not snow based maybe they can change it to a clear one?

Are you saying you just placed an order for one, or are you pointing out what the real total ends up being on a $250 re-release?

What's with Sideshow skimping on things that originally came with figures on re-releases? The lack of the snow base isn't a huge deal but I can't see why they wouldn't include it as it would look better. I might still get this since I missed the first release and regretted not getting it. The shipping price is crappy though so maybe I'll get it through BBTS.

 

[TonTon]

BBTS might get this again since they have the Boba 2.0. I wonder if either of these are instantly coupon eligible or if it'll still take a couple months. Where's the December code?

Neither. But the shipping rate for a 20 mile journey fascinated me.

Shipping $18.56


Also, as you can see, any monthly coupon basically gets eradicated by the state tax.

Tax $18.74

 

[FlyAndFight]

Brutal hit, Wor-Gar.

You definitely are forced to order out-of-state and save on at least the tax.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yeah. Good customer service and ease of returns is getting costly for us Cali folk.

I picked the original one of these about a month ago for $242. It was a "managers special" price. The price of this in Ireland buying from Sideshow was $360 that included taxes (25% of the cost of the item about $80) and shipping ($40).

Weird to see this re-released but a good opportunity for those who missed it. Still one of my favourites from either SSC or HT. Shame about the snow base not being included, though. That is essential, IMO. If I were buying this version, I think I'd get a clear perspex one made. Should be relatively cheap and easy.

Not sure why everyone is so surprised. This is the OTHER probe droid.

Vader sent out thousands of these in his search for the hidden Rebel base.

Well here's hoping they release the OTHER Dewback

 

[DarthRusty]

I wonder if they're re releasing this & the 1/6 ESB Boba so they can sell them at the store in Disney Land.

You'd think they'd at least shipped it with a clear acrylic stand this time and included the snow base.

 

[billfark]

Maybe this is the probe droid we saw in the second Death Star's hangar in ROTJ?

Glad to see this available again. I'll probably wait too long and regret not getting it...again.

Noooooh! This one is not to be missed. I've gotta unbox mine at some point.
