Hi there UK members
the play.com site is offering a lot of FFX range right now.
They have:
Luke Episode 6 (green) £99.99 LAST PRODUCTION RUN
Luke episode 4 (blue) £39.99
Vader Episode 5 (red) £99.99
Vader Episode 4 (red) £39.99
Yoda Episode 3 (green) £39.99
All the ones listed are in stock and ready to ship
They also have wait for it...the Darth Maul
Temprorarily out of stock, £79.99
the price recently was £129.99, so assume they are definitely expecting new stock, as this is a new listing on the site (no reviews as of yet) so is a different SKU.
I have one on order!

I noticed the Maul had been added a few days ago, they did have some stock for a while but sold out pretty quick by the looks of it! I have been seriously resisting buying the Maul as I have nowhere big enough to use it. And I'm not standing in my back yard entertaining the neighbours for free!

I think the maul is worth it, its only £79 too
You can use the single hilt dont forget!
Personally I have three sabers, Luke, Yoda and Vader and love the red Vader the most, so I look forward to getting the maul.
Its too big for me too, but its just so cool and collectible.
I would love a full size green lightsaber.
No chance of a Luke ROTJ though.
They had 1 on play.com but it was £99. still, it got bought by someone.

Believe me if I thought I could get it past 'the boss' I would snap that Maul up in a heartbeat! But with my wife just starting maternity leave for the next 9 months I need to keep an eye on money...! I am looking around to see if there's anything I can flog on ebay though!
Out of my Vader and Yoda, the Vader is my favourite too. Would love the Luke too (that's what I originally ordered in fact) but the Maul would be even cooler.

Strange, cos when I ordered from Play.com they got my order incorrect.
The Yoda was on sale for £25, so i snapped it up, but they sent the luke instead. In the time I was waiting for delivery, the Luke came up for £25 also, but I got it delivered and had the luke, now the yoda was £40 again. Play.com refused to sell me the yoda again at £25, and I would have had to send the Luke back, to get the Yoda for £25.
By now, I loved the luke however, and so I just saved the hassle of shipping back and bought the yoda (a 2nd order LOL) for £39.
Since then I have bought the vader for £39 too, and was worried they would send me the wrong one but they didnt.
Stupid play.com. dont even get me started on the hassles I had with parcel force.
I cant really afford the maul either, but when you see them gonig for £120+ on ebay, its just too much of a bargain to ignore.
I have a distinct feeling the new FFX line wont be as high quality either, so that adds to my temptation to build my collecction now whilst the MR brand ones are still available, especially at heavily discounted pricing.
The yoda cant deny that thing has the BEST blade on it though, so so bright.
My vader is however a different class. I know poeple like the hilt to be lighter for duaelling, but the vader being heavy makes me feel its more solid and like a "real" lightsaber.

I've got my hands over my ears and I'm completely ignoring your oh-so-sound reasoning for buying the Maul! Noooo! Must resist!! You're spot-on about the Vader too - yeah it's heavy but it should be heavy. Vader wasn't a wimp! |

Yeah I could resist no longer, and am now the proud owner of a double maul! Plus a single maul I got on ebay when Play.com had removed them from stock.. I got the double for 79.99 which is good, and now the price is 99.99
The Mace Windu was 89.99 for a while, now seems to be 59.99?
I really want the anakin AOTC next. My yoda had to go back so all my sabers are sith sabers at the moment.
