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

[darthviper107]

When do they go on preorder?

Sometime today, maybe in 2 minutes

 

[Shoo]

I couldn't be happier that the reg versions are the weathered ones, as those are the ones I prefer and I'll be able to get them locally without being raped by taxes.

I think I would have preferred them standing on opposite sides of each other just because of this iconic pic but its a minor quibble.

Agreed.

I thought reveals were on Tuesdays and PO on Thursdays ?

Both versions (clean and weathered) will have light-up features....that includes R2-D2.

How come you guys decide to do 2 seperate base for the ex & 1 for the reg. I would have loved if the 1 base was included as the EX why both versions have 2 separate bases.

The preview was indicating that it would be up for order today rather than just a product reveal.

From the sounds of it, I don't know which I'd prefer (EX or Reg)

 

[sarakawa]

I think they are doing things differently with the countdown to comic con.

 

[myc]

well its a matter of taste... I just can relate more to the weathered ones.. more close to the movie impo.. the shiny are nice as well.. but look little toyish..

It's up

$750

January 2013 release

 

[firefly2121]

WTF...$375 a PF now! or $390 for the exclusive?! Come on SS, cut us a break!

 

[Darth Waller]

They're up!

$750 regular, $775 exclusive.

 

[Jaycepticon]

$800+ (w/ shipping).......looks like I'm out on this one

 

[darthviper107]

Pretty much the price I thought it would be--still expensive though

 

[devilof76]

I'm awestruck by the regular. They were even smart enough to put those on a single base.

Exclusive option is ideal, incorporating separate bases with clean paint, and an opportunity to part the set out, all of which were the less popular options.

Anyone in the market for a new kidney?

 

[Jaycepticon]

I'm dumbfounded by the regular. So awesome, and they were even smart enough to put those on a single base. Exclusive option is ideal, incorporating separate bases with clean paint, and an opportunity to part the set out, all of which were the less popular options.

I hope that's the case, I really only wanted R2 anyway but would never pay over $300 for it.

 

[gibby]

$50-75 higher than I thought, but I'm still ordering.

Now to decide...EX or regular.
EX would be cool to recreate this scene...

 

[Darth Waller]

I hope that's the case, I really only wanted R2 anyway but would never pay over $300 for it.

I'm sure you'll be able to find someone on here to split a set.

Didn't Mike only want 3PO?
EDIT - Nope, he wanted R2.
