    Here is a list of what I have aquired in the .45 scale:

    Jedi
    Obi-Wan Kenobi ROTS
    Obi-Wan Kenobi ROTS (Black Chrome) - C3 Exclusive
    Anakin Skywalker ROTS
    Obi-Wan Kenobi ANH (Gold) - Collector Society Exclusive
    Obi-Wan Kenobi AOTC
    Obi-Wan Kenobi ANH (As First Built) - Convention Exclusive
    Yoda ROTS (Black Chrome) - SDCC 2005 Exclusive
    Luke Skywalker ROTJ (Chrome) - Ebay Exclusive

    Sith
    Count Dooku AOTC
    Darth Vader ANH
    Darth Sidious ROTS (Black Chrome) - Best Buy Exclusive
    Darth Sidious ROTS

    On order:

    Jedi
    Anakin Skywalker ROTS (Black Chrome) - Star Wars Shop Exclusive
    Luke Skywalker ROTJ
    Mace Windu AOTC
    Yoda ROTS

    Sith
    Darth Tyranus ROTS
    Darth Maul TPM (Battle Damaged)
    Darth Maul TPM (Full) - Collector Society Exclusive

    As you can see...I am a bit addicted to these mini's. :) At least this way I can get all of the sabers without having to shell out $300+ for each one.

    I am more into the full-scale blasters, so that's where I invest heavily in the larger props.

    For the variant and gold ones, if I can get them at retail, then great, otherwise I just stay away from them as much as possible. I really like the original colors of the saber the most though. :)

    O.K. Bobafett25!! That's quite the collection, I can't aford myself the full scale replicas and will end my collection at the sidious gold (got lucky with it), Anakin ROTS and waiting for the Darth Vader IV (is already posted from Singapore to the Netherlands!).

    And off topic I have got an Anakin AOTC FX saber and took of the blade and displayed it as a full scale replica!

    Got ROTS Obi-Wan to go with my AOTC one today at Best Buy. I think I'm getting hooked on these. I plan on joining MR collectors club to get the Maul Full Saber.

    Anyone else know any other retail stores to get these besides Best Buy?

    Has anyone have the Yoda one already. I'm thinking about buying it, but think it's just too small, any opinions?

    I really like these ones, I bought the C3 exclusive and Anakin ROTS at C3 (of course) and they were probably my favourite finds of C3. Normally I wouldn't be able to afford, or have place, for a full scale, so they are just perfect for me. I'm not sure if I would buy any more though, I'm usually more into Padmé collecting.

    I haven't got any of the .45 sabers ....yet. From what you guys say, it seems that they are worth it.

    Oh and does EVERY Best Buy have them, in US and Canada ?

    Picked up the Obi-Wan ROTS saber at Best Buy today. I was looking for the Anakin and Palpatine ones, but they were out. Right now I only have two sabers, Obi-Wan's and Vader's ANH saber, but I plan on getting more. A comic book shop near me has the Dooku and Maul sabers, so I'll get those.

    So waiting for my last piece of my collection, the .45 Darth Vader, and then it doesn't come in and I get a refund (probably got lost in the mail)!!
    Don't you just hate it when that happens?!

    Ordered another one through Ebay, hope it comes in now!!

    Just had to let my frustrations out..... :D

    My kit was listed as shipping in July, but it didn't come. I emailed MR and they told me it was being shipped out mid August.
