Title: Luke ROTJ mini +all my minis (5/17/06 new pics page 3)
Post by: Snoballz on February 09, 2006, 07:03:44 PM
Just got my first .45 saber today.  I pre-ordered the Luke ANH a few weeks ago.  While waiting for it to ship, I decided to purchase the Luke ROTJ just to see if I would like the mini series.  Until I saw jlee562's Mace comparison pic in this forum, I had no idea how small these things really were.  Maybe these pics will help others visualize the scale.

These things are a lot smaller than you think, but the detail is amazing.  This afternoon I ordered the Vader ANH and Tyranus, to go along along with my Luke ANH which should be here soon.

Thank you!

I've been wondering how small those things were for a while now.    Still, they look great.   I indeed MUST possess them!

The detail really is amazing. You know the design on the Anakin ROTS controlbox, the detail on that is so awesome.

hi folks

on the saber vault pages, it says that these are limited to 5000 units worldwide, surely this is not correct.  can anyone with these minis confirm this?

I wonder why MR didn't make the mini stands so they all face the same way?

They probably do he just installed the parts backwards. 8)  I'm assuming since they look like the FX stands they are just little versions and work the same way. :)
Title: Re: Luke ROTJ mini +LukeANH & Vader ANH
Post by: Snoballz on February 18, 2006, 06:07:11 PM
nope... the stands are installed correctly, they are made where the supports only go in one way.  I'm guessing they made the Luke ANH face opposite so you could view the control box while it's in the stand.  I wish the Vader ANH's stand was left facing for this same reason.  With a dremel and a little glue this may become a reality.

You have a nice collection there, Snowballz. :)  I'm so going to get that Luke ANH. It looks a bit larger than the others.

About the stands... I couldn't get the plastic things out of my stand that came with the Vader ROTS... I didn't use full force, but I didn't want to break it. Do they come out pretty easily?
Title: Re: Luke ROTJ mini +all my minis

This is really unexpected... cause I'm starting to actually CONSIDER getting minis instead of waiting for the CE's. Once I decide to go for the minis... there will not be any turning back...

When you compare the Mini to the LE... is there anything lacking? How is the plating compared to the LE? Are the details accurate?
Title: Re: Luke ROTJ mini +all my minis
Post by: Dark Skywalker on February 26, 2006, 10:23:43 AM
The details are totally accurate. Besides the size difference I would say there is no difference at all.

I should tell you, the 1:1 saber in my pics is a Parks Graflex replica, not a true Graflex or MR, but it is still just as sweet. 
I'm still searching for the best price for a screen accurate d-ring and bubble strip. 

Also, I have a BestBuy exclusive dark chrome Sidious saber since my last pic post.  It it up for trade, PM if interested.

Most don't/can't tell the difference between a mint Graflex and a Parks.  I wouldn't be suprised if you didn't even know.

www.tfxstudios.com isn't cheap enough?  $6.95 for each. :)

Great collection Snoballz!!  ;D

I'm still missing five...

Vader ROTS, Sidious, battle damaged Maul, Luke ESB and Vader ESB...

By the way, I see you have the full Maul... I got mine about two months ago... and... I noticed that the three central rubber bands are getting porous (is "porous" the correct word? sorry, I'm a spanish speaker :P). I fear that these rubber bands could break off soon...  do you have the same problem? does the half-Maul have the same problem? :(

the o-ring on my battle damaged Maul mini is beginning to show some signs of wear, the three on the full mini are still perfect.  The o-rings have been known to degrade on the Maul LE also.  Nothing to worry about, just pick up a new pack of them in the plumbing section of any hardware store.

It is a fun set, all of the Obis.  As for my favorite, I don't think I'd vote for the AFBB or the gold, and the ROTS is just a little too plastic-y in look.  So between the AOTC and the ANH?  I'd have to go with my OT bias and pick the ANH.  The ANH weathered really was my favorite saber of all, until I was ruined by the Luke ROTJ that is.  :D

I like all of the Obi's.  Even though I'm an OT guy also, I'd have to say the AOTC is my favorite Obi-Wan mini.  But that might just be because of all the xxx I went through to get it.

  i know what you mean, i am sure that the Obi AOTC is worth the money but i have told myself that i am not going to spend more than £20 on a mini

I really think MR is going to solve the going ebay rate sooner or later. Be that a TPM Obi or a rerelease, having non-limited minis priced so high really does them no good, but rereleasing previously out of production ones are great for sales. :D

I really hope MR decides to make an Obi-Wan TPM mini instead of re-releasing the AOTC, as they did with the weathered Obi-Wan ANH and Luke ROTJ.  If they do re-release the AOTC mini, MR will not get another cent from me. 

That is until the Dooku Force FX is released. ;)

I understand the feeling Sno I got burned on the ANH weathered myself, but all the same I really like how MRs been trying to keep the mini prices down.

I like that touch too, unless you think about it too much and wonder why the crystal is so low in the hilt. :D
