Who collects the Kubricks' Star Wars?

**scruffziller** · 04-30-2003

They are basically a pure cross between the real figs and the regular lego versions. Which is better for me because I always thought that plush toy's etc. of that nature, was demeaning to the charachter's form. I like the new Captain Kirk one.

They're cute, but not worth more than a couple bucks each. Without question the $100 price tag is exhorbitant and unjustifiable.

Buying about 4 or 5 sets of those could instead send you to Japan, where you could by them for cheap cheap

and have fun in another country at the same time.

I posted above that I like them, I did NOT however realize how much these suckers were, definitely not worth the plastic they are molded in!

What's the deal with this $100+ price? Is that Brian's secodary markup or something? I'd read that the "early bird set" was out for around $32 originally and the bounty hunters were priced at around $6.50 each.

Again ... these Star Wars sets are a limited release thing. Most Kubricks sets are much less expensive.

You betcha! This price is insane! I ordered a full sealed case of 12 from a Japanese online vender and paid $98 which includes sal shipping (the quickest and most secure way to ship from Japan). By ordering a full case I'm guaranteed 1 full set, a chance to get the chase Fett, and 6 additional figures I can use for trading. These Kubricks retail for about 6.50 in Japan, keep that in mind when you see people trying to rip you off with these crazy prices.

Private Message. Look along the bottom of the persons post. You should see a small blue/purple box with PM. You can send that person a private message.

I'm still waiting to get the 6 I won on eBay. I should have gone with the unopened case of 12 Kubricks. Oh Well.
