    Picked up this Revenge of the Jedi Darth Vader figure. It looks great and the box is cool and all but isn't great for displaying since you can't see the figure without "opening it". Still pretty happy with it overall.

    I snagged a Vintage Reva and Black Series Archive Lando (Skiff Guard) in a recent sale, and they turned up this past week. Added them to a pile of unboxed stuff which I should really clear some space for, and get around to enjoying!

    @Jedi Bluth Please let us know how Padmé turns out IRL, if possible. Sometimes there's a discrepancy between promo shots and the final figure, and I've been caught out a couple times before. It'd be good to know for sure before pulling the trigger.

    I won an eBay auction for a Darth Maul GG mini bust (the hooded version). I always regretted not buying this when it was released years ago. I got it mint in box for a very nice price (to the point that I feel bad for the seller).

    Congrats! You never know why that happens. Could be someone bought an estate and knows squat about items (I had that once, I got an in box ROTS Darth Vader mini-bust and a loose Medicom Luke Skywalker 1:6 scale figure for $25 total.) Or it could've been an extra, someone could've died and the person selling didn't know the value. Or honestly I think people forget what they paid for items and just need cash in hand.

    My Gentle Giant Chief Chirpa statue came yesterday. I'm glad I'm down to only 3 pre-orders left with them. They hit me with something like 6 pre-orders that all came in at once this fall. I had to cancel a few of them because I didn't have the funds due to them coming in willy nilly whenever they felt like it. At least Sideshow gives you exact warnings on when your items are coming in.

    I'm sorry, but I just saw this post. How was your figure package? Cause mine, has a side clip that is made of cardboard and you have to push up, and it opens up, revealing the figure. And because of the no plastic rule, it just the figure showing. Also on this packaging the poster can be removed with tearing the box, just push it up.

    The side clip was hard at first, but it is there.

    Forgive my DP Cubs, but it won't let me edit, and I found this...


    I skipped ahead to the actual unboxing. He didn't use the flaps, but when he is opening it, it will show you where they are on the side. I didn't know about the easel, though. Gotta figure it, how he got that.
