Our Sarge is starting to rack up quite the GG display. That is another great addition. If you see any more TESB busts at decent prices and don't want to acquire them yourself let me know as you are looking! I might be expanding my TESB focus as you guys are really making me like these busts! Thanks a lot Pat!

You can find a few of the bounty hunters and other main chars reasonable. I will probably try to pick up 1 a month for a while. The Leia was only 30 bucks shipped so it wasn't hard to pull the trigger. I want Boba Fett but I don't know if I can drop $200 bucks on one.

I'd love to have that Boba Fett, but I'm like you...$200 is a bit much.  Then again, if I'm at WW and find it at a reasonable cost, I'll swipe it up.

I was kinda thinking I may ask you guys to pick me one up to if you can find it at a great deal. Who knows, maybe if we all three buy one we can all get better deals? Just a thought. I like your reasoning Sarge. Maybe I should try the one a month. I wonder how many TESB mini busts there are? Probably a question for a different thread.

Maybe you should just plan on attending WWC this year as an end of the Summer vacation and go with Wayne and I...

That's not a bad idea Shawn,

I just purchased yet another bust, I am excited to see it in person so waiting for it to arrive will be tough, it's the light up Obi Wan, I am curious how it turned out. Pics will hopefully be comming in a few days since it's only shipping from Illinois.

Well, I LOVE my ANH Obi-Wan mini-bust, so I would imagine the light up one is just as nice...

If it weren't the same date as my wife's beach vacation I would try to be there! She would probably shoot me with one of my own guns if I deserted her for the beach trip.

I have this one, and it is a nice one.  I have both versions, and I like the bronzed one the best.  These new Classics busts can usually be had for about $30 including shipping if you look through Ebay.  You're gonna like this piece Tamer!

I have been looking on ebay, but didn't see the bronzed one and wanted one momc, you know me. Think I am gonna wait till WW and see if you find any good deals like last year Pat for anymore!

That's a nice pick up Shawn,


I received my light up Obi Wan today, nice but I guess I was expecting maybe a blueish hue to the light, still I am happy with it. Pics will be added soon.
