AT-AT Driver Vintage Jumbo Figure - SDCC 2014 Exclusive

But why in the world make such a figure an exclusive?  :-\ This could be hard to get for me. Stupid Gentle Giant, and they wonder why people "love" them...

Well when I ordered mine yesterday I checked to see if I could get more than one and the answer was no. However, some of our site sponsors get in the SDCC Exclusives so I will be watching that closely too. It might even be cheaper on one of those sponsors than getting it from GG themselves.

If the RS deal won't go through I will look elsewhere. This will be the last Jumbo I'm getting anyway, I like the TIE too but not sure if I want it.

I will definitely try to help you out if I can find a source too Serg.

Thanks Shawn!

Not a problem. I know how much you have to pay for just getting things shipped to your country.

Unfortunately that is so true. :( I could have had at least 30-40% more items in my collection if not for crazy international shipping costs and some of the taxes...

I am putting some feelers out for a few other friends I know who are premier guild members, but might not be ordering this one. If I can score one for you I will let you know.

Thanks again Shawn! :) If the RS member will not be able to help me, I'm going to let you know. He wrote me a PM yesterday that is encouraging  8) After all do not want to end up with two of them, no matter how cool they are  O0

I'm sure you will be able to sell it instantly. But not seeing you doing it though ;) Neither flipping it for higher price, you are a collector like me, not a scalper/flipper.

Amen bud. My first choice would be to find another collector who wasn't able to secure one.
