Phew! Thanks, man! That is much appreciated!
I am happy to know that info is forthcoming! I just have to have some patience, I suppose. I have been brooding over these for near on a year now....Since SDCC...I must have these...

I know they are going to cost and arm and a leg....I am just getting antsy and I want to know which arm and leg I am going to have to fork over for them!

Well I was told they will be around 6k each. They said they are reworking lights, adding more sound features etc.. Thats all I know.

Sir Tristram said:

Thank you so much, Dusty and mfoga!!!

I wonder if they will sell the set as a special deal...Like $10K for the set!

I am so happy that they are going to have sound and lights! Yahoo!! :chew

mfoga said:

Well let me make it better. Bases that will look like the floor of the Falcon are being made for these too.

Sir Tristram said:

Oh, man!!! Sweet! You DID make it better! Thanks for the update!

But, in the Q&A they said they will not be available in a set...I am stunned about that!

Perfect opportunity to sell them together and take off a grand or so from the price of the pair! Oh well....Either way, I am going to sink much, MUCH deeper in debt! But at least I'll have some droid companions to keep me company!

Sir Tristram said:

Actually, I have not been on here is almost 24 hours! LOL!
But your update is the MOST information I have gotten all weekend (of the pieces I really wanted info about!)

Thanks again!!

Hey, did they mention (or did you) anything about other possible life-size pieces? Han frozen in Carbonite, perhaps? I know they probably want to get these out of the gate first and see how they do, but even Don Post/Illusive Concepts made more than just the droids! I REALLY want a seroes of life-size pieces...and the Han Slo in Carbonite is at the top of my list! They could add the proper lights this time! ....OK, I know, I am getting ahead of the game here, but I just LOVE this life-size stuff!

Thanks for helping out with the questions! (I am going to Celebration Europe, but Sideshow will not be there, so this was my chance to get some info!)
