So I got this email today from Amazon.com:

Hello from Amazon.com.

We are sorry to report that we will not be able to obtain the following
item from your order:
   
   "Star Wars .45% Scaled Replica: Obi-Wan Kenobi Lightsaber"

Though we had expected to be able to send this item to you, we've
since found that it is not available from any of our sources at this
time.  We realize this is disappointing news to hear, and we apologize
for the inconvenience we have caused you.
   
We must also apologize for the length of time it has taken us to reach
this conclusion.  Until recently, we had still hoped to obtain this
item for you.
   
We have cancelled this item from your order.

Note: If you took advantage of an Amazon.com or Toysrus.com
promotional offer when placing this order, this cancellation may
affect your order's eligibility for that offer. If this
is the case, please contact customer service; if we confirm your
original
order was eligible, we'll reimburse you for the value of the
promotional
discount. However, we can't reimburse you for rebates offered by
manufacturers or by Amazon.com.
   
Your credit card will NOT BE CHARGED for this item because you only
pay for items when we ship them to you.
   
Your order is now closed.


It's distressing how often Amazon's information and sale/ship dates are inaccurate. This seems to happen a lot with their Star Wars collectibles and other related memorabilia.  >:(

Thank you, Tiin. :)

I can't really afford it right now anyway... as it is I can't even sell the ones I'm trying to.  :-\

Sorry to all those people who thought they were going to get an Obi-Wan AOTC mini, you were really ripped off there :(. I had a feeling it was going to happen though :'(

I had ordered one, too, from Amazon, but haven't received that email yet.  It's good that they at least notified you/us.  And they're not charging you, so you're not really getting ripped off.  More like, let down.  Considering what happened with the Target order I had placed through Amazon for the AotC Dooku, I'm not surprised.  I guess it's back to Ebay to continue the hunt.  I finally won a Dooku, so that only leaves the Oi-Wan AotC left among the regular sabers to get.

I too got the "sorry - no luck finding your mini" email. What a let down.

Oddly enough, still no email, but when I just went to check on the order (is was supposed to ship+deliver this week), it's been delayed to mid-July.  In any case, I coughed up the additional expense to get one on Ebay for $67 shipped (ouch).  But at last, sometime later this week / early next week, my collection of non-exclusives will be complete.

LOL!   When I first started bidding on SW items on ebay, it seemed I was always bidding against the same people.  Always wondered if they were members of the boards I frequent.
