SDCC Coverage

[Michael Crawford]

Okay, I got some more updates in today, including the DC Direct stuff. I have a bunch more to go, but most are smaller deals.

It's funny - some of my favorite figures aren't my favorite photos and vice versa.

Hey Mike, did ya get the hand yet?

[Michael Crawford]

Ayup - sure did! Thanks, but I haven't had a chance to mail out the money since I've been out of town. I'll get it out this week.

[Mr. Yac]

so tell me what were your favorite things from the show, and any big surprises this year?

[Michael Crawford]

I did a top ten over at Quick Stop today - my favs were the Sideshow Jabba the Hutt, GG Princess Leia statue, MR Millenium Falcon, Weta's Ray Guns, Mezco's FG and South Park...I'm sure there was more than that, but those stood out for me.

[Andyman]

Michael...any more on the Weta Ray Guns? Pics?

[Michael Crawford]

Yep - I have three or four photos. I'll see if I can get them up right now...

Done!

Thanks, Michael. Man, those are sweet! Any idea of a retail price?

[Michael Crawford]

'fraid not. I'm betting in the couple hundred range, although they'd be a tough sell at that price. Just guessing though based on Weta's other past pricing.

A friend of mine from another board said that they are made out of metal and are intended to look "antique"...as if they were passed down from generation to generation. They won't fire but will have functioning knobs and lights, etc. No price info available yet. Most likely not cheap.
