well, this latest transaction is another dream come true for me..
i have been eyeing on the Bastila Shan figure ever since it made its The Vintage Collection debut..
but unfortunately, it was often sold as part of the set during those times, and as 'single' it was sold at a very high price..
thanks to Hasbro for releasing it again as part of the Black Series..
and also, thanks to Kramer for offering it in their store and for selling 'single' copies of it...
it was another brilliant and excellent deal with Kramer..
after they announced that they'll be selling copies of the Bastila Shan unit from the Black Series, i immediately inquired about that offer..
during that time, i was also interested in purchasing a copy of both Mara Jade and Luminara Unduli, also from the Black Series..
i asked them if they can reserve both units for me while we wait for the arrival of Bastila Shan, and they kindly did..
it took sometime before the Bastila Shan set finally arrived at their store, but it was worth waiting for...
we completed the entire transaction only through text (with some help via Facebook)..
and that's just a proof that Kramer is still very considerate and trustworthy as usual..
i think they're getting better and better with their work..
and now they even have their own website where you can preorder stuff, make reservation(s), and which accepts online payment through credit cards and more (kindly checkout the links in their Facebook page)...
and so i should say, thank you so much Kramer Toy Warden for fulfilling my Bastila Shan dream... ^_^
keep up the good work!
and i look forward to more interesting transactions with you in the future..
here's a related review about them: Kramer Toy Warden
this bunch of Black Series was delivered to me by LBC..
and i believe this is the first time that i and Kramer asked for their service..
i think a lot has changed now regarding their system..
and i believe it's all for the better..
it only took them more than 12 hours to deliver my package to me..
their website's tracking system seems to be more accurate and dependable based on my recent purchases..
and now, they are using some sort of electronic scanner device where the consignee of the package can directly input their signature...
JEDI ORDER:
a Human female who served as a Jedi Padawan, from the planet Talravin..
she also briefly became an apprentice to the Sith Master, Darth Malak..
despite her youth, she was found to have an exceptional gift with the Force power known as battle meditation; which increased her allies' morale while demoralizing her enemies..
in addition, her allies would be granted perfect coordination and the ability to respond instantly and perfectly to the enemy's every change in formation and strategy..
so with this power she could affect the outcome of a battle by thought alone..
she wields a yellow double-bladed lightsaber...
she's my very first action figure who makes use of a double-bladed lightsaber..
and on the picture on the right, you can see her beautiful ponytail... :)
well, this version seems less-polished compared to it's debut version..
based on some review websites, this release seems to have a lighter and less-skillful paint job..
but i'm totally fine with that - as long as i can have a copy of Bastila Shan at an affordable price... ^_^
a Mirialan Jedi Master and an adviser to the Jedi High Council, from Mirial..
she is the master of Barriss Offee...
on the picture on the right, you can see that this sculpt of her is equipped with a removable headdress..
despite being a 'better sculpt', this version's boots lack in design and paint job unlike the previous version..
i still have the old sculpt of her..
but because of this new purchase, i might include that action figure of her in my For Sale list..
refer to this previous entry about her...
above is a comparative view of the new and the old version of Luminara Unduli..
and below is a comparative view of their respective boots...
a Human female..
during different times in her life, she bacame an Emperor's Hand, a smuggler, and later a Jedi Master who sat upon the Jedi High Council..
she was raised as a servant to Emperor Palpatine and became a high-level Force-using operative who carried out the Emperor's bidding; killing Rebels and corrupt Imperials alike with cold professionalism, even as a young woman..
later she served as Jedi Master to both Jaina Solo and Anakin Solo, children of Han Solo and Leia Organa...
though she's a Jedi Master, she'll probably spend most of the time with the Rebels, just like Luke Skywalker..
at first, i thought that i'd only have this unit just so i can have a partner/wife for Luke Skywalker (once i've decided on what version of him to buy)..
but after i have opened and inspected this Mara Jade figure, i'm just amazed on how good she looks..
she may look a bit of a retro, but this particular unit looks hot and will definitely make it to my Women of Star Wars list...
the top photo features her removable holster positioned at her right side..
while the photo below features her holster attached to the back of her belt...
