Star Wars Chess Table!

[tomandshell]

Prolly should, but some yahoo on here called me a Insuffrable S.O.B. and that just cracked me up too much

Maybe they were referring to the Super Oralloy Bomb, the largest pure fission bomb ever detonated, which had a yield of 500 kilotons. That would be pretty insufferable.

I have a TMobile Sidekick 2 and can't live without it. It has full internet and i've done lots of shopping on it, even a few ppo's.

those look cool, does it use a stylus?

i wanted this piece so i ordered it and the price didn't make it an issue....only because i was away from a computer going to get my taxes done and had to call it in and they didn't tell me the price, nor did i ask. i feel $39.99 is about right but then again i haven't seen it and will be getting it at $49.99 because it is such a unique piece and after reading the bio on it, sounds like it is very well made. i would like to see it fit in somewhere in my display but then again i don't know if i did have chewey, c-3PO and r2....and the seats in the Falcon for them to sit on, if would want them sitting around playing chess. lazy bastards need to be up earning their high price tags.

EDIT: i know i should know this but i just read the email confirmation of my order i placed by phone and it said it doesn't qualify for rewards points. that's crap. i'll have to remember that when i order expensive items.

No stylus. Does everything. The tmail i only use with toy orders, it has games, textmessage, notepad, addressbook, oh and a phone too lol. Well worth it. The version 3 has a mp3 player, but I have a ipod so havent needed to upgrade yet.

what phone do you have?

I have the Verizon XV6700 itws a PDA phone so I get full internet access.:chew

 

[Booyah!]

With this selling out, it does concern me that Sideshow now feels that we will buy everything they make, and that we will get more of these table sets before actual characters.

I worried about just the opposite, that with all the whining, belly-aching and hissy fits about this and the Bubo piece, Sideshow would stop giving us these cool expansion sets. But with such a fast sellout time, Sideshow now knows we want it all! Give us the whole SW universe!!!!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[galactiboy]

You didnt make it up. Star Wars Insider had it at $40.

Thanks Irish, appreciate the info... I knew I wasn't crazy. $50 really does seem high, but as a SW fan I guess I do bleed money

EDIT: i know i should know this but i just read the email confirmation of my order i placed by phone and it said it doesn't qualify for rewards points. that's crap. i'll have to remember that when i order expensive items.

Yep, found out the hard way with Leai Boushh and Bubo! Kinda sucks... I do think there should be some way to change this. If they could give reward points to the SDCC orderers (that did happen right?) they could do it for phone orders as well.

Sometimes you just can't get to a computer in time... we can't all have the same cool technology as EvilFace.

i think the fact the exclusive sold out so fast lets them know we're interested. i'm with you. if they make something you aren't pumped about just don't buy it.

I've had to order plenty by phone including the chess table. The thing with the RP though is that with it being done by the computer system it's a bit of a pain to put it in the computer. They did it on the SDCC as a special thank you to those ordering at the show.

 

[ObiWan_67_D1138]

Just wondering if anyone knows exactly which line this will fall under. I would think "Hero's of the Rebellion", right?

 

[darthviper107]

Maybe Scum & Villainy. Han is kinda scummy.

THX, you love old Harrison as much as I do.

My Wait List for the Chess Set is converting, so yey. I ordered like 47 minutes after the set went up, so looks like people are canceling.

Congrats!

 

[Fritz]

My waitlist just got converted as well. I ordered about three hours after it was listed.

 

[galactiboy]

My waitlist just came through as well... I was surprised how soon that happened. I think mine was placed about 40 minutes into the pre-order. I guess the fervor of TF has worn off for some people

 

[customizerwannabe]

Mine too! Surprised it was so early also though.

 

[Smudger9]

I ended up cancelling mine. Its quite easy to get carried away on PPO day. When the dust settled I decided that I just couldnt justify $80 on this after tax and shipping. I cancelled Budo for the same reason and put the money towards a Medicom Vader.

Hmmm, I ordered two-and-a-half hours after it was listed, but I haven't been converted. Hopefully anyday now ...

That's what I was thinking. I waitlisted about 2 hours after preorder and mine hasn't been converted yet.
