May 3, 201411 yr Revan is still a better deal than double VIP points on R2-D2, UCS X-Wing, Ewok Village, and Sandcrawler since you can easily net $20-22 after fees on ebay. It might be even more if he goes out of stock quickly.
May 3, 201411 yr I wouldn't be surprised if they "release" a couple of sets every so often into their system to give everyone some chance, and not just those that are online now. Just wait a bit and refresh often. I ABSOLUTELY AGREE. I think this happened with the B Wing? Any one else remember?
May 3, 201411 yr Anyone seeing cancels coming with free ravens lol? I would be happy either way .. I rather have the sets I purchased tho I got backordered status on my Skiffs already. I wonder what the chances are of actually filling that backorder. I assume they aren't actually producing this set anymore.
May 3, 201411 yr Wow. Someone give this guy a prize for extremely fast fingers! (Or perhaps, careful planning). Congrats! He probably had six devices/computers set up before hand. Hit "order" six times after seeing the promo go live, and there you go... EDIT - possibly even six windows open on his desktop instead.

May 3, 201411 yr This may be one of the rare occasions that I may just buy the Darth Revan minifigure from the secondary market
May 3, 201411 yr Ended up with 5 skiffs, 1 malevolence and 9 vizsla's. And 3 Revans... A few posters too...didn't realize the malevolence would sell out so fast or would have grabbed more.
May 3, 201411 yr I ABSOLUTELY AGREE. I think this happened with the B Wing? Any one else remember? Yes. I was not investing at the time much yet. This was my first big purchase. I bought 3 like halfway through the day when they randomly came back in stock.

It might be even more if he goes out of stock quickly. it will certainly be worth less after this farce of a sale. unless they run out of them in next hour..
May 3, 201411 yr I got backordered status on my Skiffs already. I wonder what the chances are of actually filling that backorder. I assume they aren't actually producing this set anymore. Me too, everything else is clear, but I bet they come up with more of the Skiff's to fill all backorders.

This is Bold's setup on sale days.... he's a professional people. Haha you guys. This would certainly explain it! Impressive feat no matter how you look at it. Wow.
May 3, 201411 yr Yes. I was not investing at the time much yet. This was my first big purchase. I bought 3 like halfway through the day when they randomly came back in stock. As I work in the print & fulfillment industry, I can tell you that fulfillment centers have virtual warehouse #'s in their system, and they can have bin locations with so many Malevolence's in a bin in warehouse #1, and then have a warehouse #2, #3, etc that is off limits from being available, like restricted warehouses, and they may have had 500 Malevolence's in warehouse #1, with 5,000 more in warehouse #2. Then they are going to wait till like 9-11am and move some, not all between bins & warehouses (without actually moving the stock). Then it will come & go again. This way they hope (and though I want mine, rightfully so) that the average mom, dad & kid can try to get one during the day as opposed to the 12:00:00 caffeine drinkers we are.
May 3, 201411 yr I hope not, that would be pretty sad and could have negative consequences for future promotions. I agree I want my 50% of legos! Look what happened with the MM polybags they aint worth shiz
May 3, 201411 yr $20-$22 after fees? And your source? Sold listings on ebay for $26-29 each, many without free shipping offered. This is a good promo figure, unlike the blue Hoth Han from last year.
May 3, 201411 yr Ahaha all the sale items are gone and now the R2s are out of stock from people looking to get Darth Revan.
May 3, 201411 yr LOL. I just woke up. What did I miss? Sent from my iPad using Brickpicker Sold listings on ebay for $26-29 each, many without free shipping offered. This is a good promo figure, unlike the blue Hoth Han from last year. You still think the price will hold once the US starts flooding the market with these?
May 3, 201411 yr Luckily my order for the malovence and pre vizsla went through but oddly enough I dont see a revan figure for my separate sand crawler order.... Oh Well I'm just thankful I got those sets and one revan minifig for sure
May 3, 201411 yr You still think the price will hold once the US starts flooding the market with these? Typically these promo minifigures don't hold their value, so that's why you should sell them now as soon as your order is placed.
