OH my! That's so nice... and you're so fortunate to obtain that Obi Wan AOTC mini. That's impossible to get at retail.

Yeah. No kidding. That one took me forever to find at a "reasonable" price.

For me, I'm just looking for the full Maul and the Obi-Wan AFBB to finish up my collection. I'm only collecting the "regulars" too but I think I do want the AFBB too =)

Love the pictures Equinox!

I pretty much stole the AOTC Obi-Wan.  The first mini's I ever bought were the 2004 Jedi Collection.  I came w/ the Obi, Mace and Luke ROTJ and a display case.  I won it on eBay for $60.  I also bought the 2004 Sith collection from the same guy at the same price.  The only other mini that is out already that I would like is a AFBY Obi-Wan.  Im waiting for a great deal though.  I am planning to make a new display cabinate for all of these,  however it is at the end of a very long list of things to do.   :(

Here is a few comparison picks

Graflex Progression ROTS to TESB

      

      

Obi-Wan Kenobi ROTS to ANH

      

   

Count Dooku AOTC to ROTS

      

Anakin & Obi-Wan VS Dooku



Yoda VS Sidious



Obi-Wan VS Darth Vader



Luke VS Darth Vader

I keep debating using my CS membership to by an AFBB direct from MR.

35$ with 10% off isn't too bad but I'd like to pick one up a little bit cheaper if I could.

I think that ROTS Anakin looks like a failed attempt of sombody making ANH replica. Somtimes I wonder if Lucas specifically changed it since he couldn't copyright the Graflex from the first two.

Im with you guys,  I NEED A VADER ROTJ.  My Luke ROTJ is lonely all by it self. 

I personaly would love to see MR come out with all the jedi councel lightsabers for there .45 line. 

However there are a few more regulars to go.  I just hope it doesnt take years to get all of them.

Im still dibating on the blasters..... :-\

I see the need for a .45 ROTJ conversion Kit :D

easier said than done yes but... a Luke ANH would make a good donor but you'd need the Kbold ring from the
ESB ::)

Maybe just a shroud and control box kit ;)

That would definatly be a project.  I have thought about making a V2 Luke ROTJ though.  Though in sure MR will release one sooner or later.
