Akiata's MEGA Sale: Sideshow, Customs, Hot Toys, and Other Goodness (FS/FT)

[Akiata]

2/21 Migrating over to eBay. I will still pull the auction for TRADES only. Mods please leave this up a few days then lock. I won't bump anymore.


2/20: NEGOTIATION TIME:
I do not like maintaining long sales..it's too time consuming. I see it as I have 2 options here: 1Sell it much cheaper here. 2use eBay and loose $ to fees. I am interested in anything in my trade list. I will reorganize them to my wants. Higher up, the higher bargaining power you have. I of course don't mind $, or trade plus $.
Ready to be done with it soon and reclaim my office.
PM me with an offer. I'm ready to talk some business!
It certainly couldn't hurt to ask!


I am a 6 year member in perfect standing at RebelScum. I have have been selling and buying here this whole time. Most of my buyers are among the well-known vets still here at this site. The only issue I have had at RebelScum is that I had $350.00 stolen from me when trying to buy a 1:1 Salacious Crumb outside the US a few years back. Because I'm all crazy ADD and such, I never have kept up with all my feedback. I have a few feedback threads floating around here somewhere...nothing but positive comments. With their permission, I can get references for past sales for interested buyers. The last thing I sold here was a 1:1 General Grievous bust, which went flawlessly. My ebay id is: lousiana_leo with 100% rating. I have only taken pictures of items I feel need, or would benefit from, a visual description. Requests for additional pics are welcome.

TRADE ONLY GOOD :

-Exclusive 1:1 Darth Vader Stand- I don't particularly want to sell this, so I am going to try to trade it for an equally sought-after item. Seeing how there are tons of Vader busts out there, and only 300 of these world-wide, someone out there might want this desperately enough to splurge. It's a pretty critical piece if you want to display the Anakin portrait. I think it's kind of lame that SS didn't include this with every bust. Most important SE ever. Just entice me, and it's yours! Read right above this for my wants.




SIDESHOW 1/6


-SE ROTJ Emperor and Throne (sold as set) 220.00 obo


-ANH Obi-Wan 95.00- Reduced to 80.00 obo based on solid tip. Sold




-Yoda SE 120.00 obo


-Rebel Fleet Trooper 50.00 obo -Sold


-Captain Antilles 50.00 obo -Sold


-ESB Han SE (leather leg loop needs to be reglued to holster. Easy) 50.00 obo


-Admiral Piett (missing 1 ungloved hand, cloth cap) 50.00 obo -Sold


-212^th Utapau Clone SE 90.00 obo -Sold


-ROTS Palpatine (missing senate droid. keeping that!) 40.00 obo


-ROTS Sidious (looks fantastic on throne.) Complete. 40.00 obo -Sold


-Plo Koon 40.00 obo


-Rebel Infantryman 20.00 obo


-Rebel Pathfinder 20.00 obo


-ROTJ Carbonite Han and Environment- I am the 2^nd owner of this, but it is in mint condition with one exception. On the top, back of the enviroment, there is a patch that does not quite look intentional to me. It does not feel like a chip (it feels flush, and it is not the color of polystone), so I can only assume it is a paint flaw or is meant to be there. I have provided a pic of this spot. It is in the back, so it does not show easily. 400.00 obo






SIDESHOW/HOT TOYS STAR WARS CUSTOMS AND MODS!



-ANH Han Solo SE Custom. I made this for the cantina booth and Greedo scene. Parts used were: Stormtrooper Han portait (for appropriate expression for the scene), ANH Han outfit and items, and a standard Hot Toys body. As you may see in the pic, Hot Toys bodies are far beyond any other 1/6^th body, and natural poses can easily be made. What's included: Han on Hot Toys body with old portrait included. Complete costume, SE blaster, reg blaster, trooper blaster, cantina cup, 2 gloved SS hands, and 2 bare HT hands. (SS and HT hands will both fit on HT wrist connector.) 130.00 obo





-ANH Luke SE custom MEGA pack- Parts used for main figure are: Hot Toys (narrow or slim) body, ANH Luke clothing and accessories, Stormtrooper Luke portrait, belt (with hook and comlink), and blaster. ALSO included is the rest of Stormtrooper Luke's armor/ armor body with an additional HT "conscript" head. All SE Luke accessories are included, with the exception that 2 HT hands and 2 ST hands will be provided. 180.00 obo (this is the one I will regret selling)




-ESB Luke custom- If ya can't afford the 300.00 HT version coming out, this is what ya need! Parts used are: Slim or narrow Hot Toys body, ANH Luke portrait, ESB costume, weapons, etc. Comes with 2 HT hands, and ugly ESB portrait will be included. Yoda pictured is not included. Do notice how naturally he can sit, and how nice he would look in Yoda's hut! This would arrive in SE character box, but does not include the SE item. 140.00 obo




-ROTJ Luke SE Custom- A LOT of improvement went into this figure. This was Sideshow's 1^st Star Wars attempt, and Luke came out looking like a giraffe with monkey arms. He has a "Death Star Throne Room contemplative" look that I've always liked, because I see it being from that specific scene. I added a slim or narrow Hot Toys body, which eliminated the long arms and the oddity at his waist. I reduced the length of his neck which helped significantly. There is a small gap where the neck meets the connector. It's never bothered me, but it would be easy to fix just by leveling the cut I made. He comes with 2 HT hands, as well as the SS gloved and blasted hand. D-Ring on lit lightsaber is missing. All other SE Luke gear is included. SOLD





-Imperial Commander/Tie Fighter Pilot custom combo kit- The main figure is a Hot Toys figure and portrait with Praji's gear on. Also included are the TIE fighter pilot jump-suit and armor from Marmit. In one pic, I have placed the armor on Praji's outfit to show you general look. The Marmit jumpsuit is in great shape except the iron-on Imperial symbols are starting to crack. If left alone and not picked at, they will be fine. With the jumpsuit and armor on, Praji's gloves and boots are a match for the outfit. The belt is too, minus the 2 siver pouches in front. Praji's ugly mug will be included. No additional hands. The belt buckle post broke when I was photographing! I can immediately think of 3 fixes: Glued small magnents, Strong adhesive-backed velcro, or for permanent placement, super glue. Price adjusted for that lameness. 145.00 obo




Clone Wars Season 1 Obi Wan- This guy is truely a frankenstein. The top body is Hot Toys Slim, the waist down is the SS armored body (this was the only way to make him look natural). This custom uses Clone General Obi, AOTC clothing, and Anakin's clone war shoulder armor. I wouldn't call this completed. The white I used is not an exact match for the armor, but looks great on display. I used minimal acrylic, so it could be removed, or painted over without loosing the armor's texture. I have not applied a Republic symbol. I had no plans to alter the hair, as I prefer it longer for a Season 1. The legs are floppy due to them being a 1^st gen new SS body, but he stands fine on his base. Figure comes with 5 hands, lightsabers, communicator, holo-thingy, boots, pants, white undershirt (sleeves cut off to reduce bulk, outer tunic, and robe. Want to pick up where I left off? He's pretty cool! 110.00 obo




-ROTS Darth Ani conversion parts- The head and the base will allow you to turn your reg ROTS Ani to Darth Ani! 25.00 obo.




-Stormtrooper Commander SE- All the SS stormtroopers look like they have silver waffles on their helmets due to the paint job. I have corrected that. Notice that the SE stand has a large paint error. Free Hot Toys "conscript" head! 90.00 obo

SIDESHOW 1:1
-Exclusive Darth Vader Stand- I don't particularly want to sell this, so I am going to set it at a crazy, but negotiable price. Seeing how there are tons of Vader busts out there, and only 300 of these world-wide, someone out there might want this desperately enough to splurge. It's a pretty critical piece if you want to display the Anakin portrait. I think it's kind of lame that SS didn't include this with every bust. Most important SE ever. Not holding my breath, but for this price, I couldn't pass the deal up. Nevertheless, it's up for sale. 400.00 obo (remember trading!)




MISC STAR WARS


-Lego Slave 1- Newest version, that includes Boba, Bossk, Han, and Carbonite Han. The 4 cockpit stickers have been applied (extremely well). 100% complete with instructions. If you need the Lego model number, I can get that. I can ship this assembled or disassembled. $75 obo





-Dark Horse Clone Wars comics and TPB -1-10 I believe this is the full run, but I would suggest checking. All comics are mint in bags with boards. Also includes TPB. 15.00 obo




-Dark Horse Dark Times- Full run thus far. 0-20, including all 3 covers for issue 1, and Blue Harvest. All comics are mint in bags with boards. Cover price is .99, for a total of 62.79 plus tax. Selling for 25.00 obo




-Dark Horse Knights of the Old Republic- Full run (52). 0-50 plus handbook. Catch up in the background of the new MMO The Old Republic. All comics are mint in bags with boards. Cover price is 2.99, for a total of 155.48 plus tax. Selling for 90.00 obo

-Dark Horse Tales (!)- Full run (24). All comics are art covers, with no awful photo covers. Each one is 64 pages. I am the 2^nd owner, and have never looked at these. I see a little shelf wear on a couple (minor corner dings, and slight rubbing on the edge of the spine). All are bagged with board, but I would suggest replacing these if you want to display and not store...the plastic is showing its age. Issues 1-4 retailed for 4.95, and 5-24 retailed for 5.99 for a total of 133.61 plus tax. Truely rare to find a full run outside of TPB compilations. Selling for 85.00 obo

MISC NON-STAR WARS (because SW collectors often think alike)


-Hot Toys Iron Man Mark IV- I think HT has, or plans to, re-release this one. This is the 1^st release with the sunglasses and donut. Item is in mint and complete condition, with one small exception. A missle bay door on the optional forearm armor has detached. It requires the smallest dab of Super Glue to reattach. It is in no way, shape, or form damaged or broken. I have slightly shakey hands, so I'll let the new owner reattach it to be safe. Box is in great shape. 280.00 obo




-Hot Toys War Machine- 1^st release (movie color scheme with extra head with actor portrait) Item is in mint and complete condition. Widow Maker rocket is in launcher. I verified it is there, but noticed i neglected to remove it from its launcher after I packed him back up. Box is in great shape. 280.00 obo





-Hot Toys Spider Man- Item is mint. Missing one replacement wrist connector. Suit is in perfect shape. Box is in great shape with one bend on the outer cover. 170.00 obo -Sold at lower price-point(!) pending payment




-Masterpiece Collection Skywarp (Hasbro) Mint and complete. No character box 30.00 obo




-TFC Toys Hercules Exgraver (Scavenger)- This is a 3^rd party 2011 version of Devestator and the Constructicons. Excellent quality figure, and much bigger than the originals. Scavenger is the right arm of Devestator. I simply can't build Devastator right now (each Constructicon costs about 100.00, and there are 6). If you are a TF fan and haven't seen these, research immediately! Has ReproGraphics stickers on figure to closely resemble a G1, and mark him as a Decepticon ( http://www.reprolabels.com/index.html ). Easily removable if desired, but I don't know why you would! Missing character card (still searching for it, but won't change price) 85.00 obo





-TFC Toys Hercules Heavy Labor (Long Haul)- - This is a 3^rd party 2011 updated version of Devestator and the Constructicons. Excellent quality figure, and much bigger than the originals. Long Haul is the lower torso and upper legs of Devestator. I simply can't build Devastator right now (each Constructicon costs about 100.00, and there are 6). If you are a TF fan and haven't seen these, research immediately! 85.00 obo





-Fansproject Causality-03 Thundershred (Shrapnel)- This is a 3^rd party 2011 updated version of the Insecticons. They added a ninja flavor to them. Excellent quality figure. If you are a TF fan and haven't seen these, research immediately! Has ReproGraphics stickers on figure to closely resemble a G1, and mark him as a Decepticon ( http://www.reprolabels.com/index.html ). Easily removable if desired, but I don't know why you would! 40.00 obo





-Fansproject Causality-04 Stormbomb (Bombshell)- This is a 3^rd party 2011 updated version of the Insecticons. They added a ninja flavor to them. Excellent quality figure. If you are a TF fan and haven't seen these, research immediately! 40.00 obo
*I noticed this is slightly mistransformed in this pic, his waist goes down in robot mode, and looks much better. Just fyi*





-Takara Hot Rod, TFX-04 Protector Trailer/Armor, and TFX-05 Sidearm Upgrade Kit- Sold as set. The Takara (Japanese Version TF) Hot Rod is by far the best version of this mold. It features a metallic gold-like spoiler and a fantastic color-scheme. TFX-04 is a 3^rd party release (2011?) of Hot Rod's trailor, that converts him to Rodimus Prime and a weapon station. TFX-05 is his Target-Master gun that transforms into a robot. It also includes the gold-like parts to match up to this version of Hot Rod that is included. This figure set is intended to go with the Classics/Universe line. If you are a TF fan and haven't seen these sets, research immediately! Has ReproGraphics stickers on Rodimus Prime parts to closely resemble a G1, and mark him as an Autobot ( http://www.reprolabels.com/index.html ). Easily removable if desired, but I don't know why you would! Gnerations Kup is included in the last pic for scale. Not included.120.00 obo





-PS3 Collector's Edition Batman Arkham City- This version comes with a sweet Kotobukya Black and White Batman Statue, Display Box, Art Book, Soundtrack, and the animated movie Gotham Knight on BluRay. Everything is mint. I have claimed the downloadable content, but that can be purchased on the PS3 store. I have not claimed the soundtrack. 60.00 obo

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION/ DISCLAIMERS


-Communication is key to a good transaction experience. I will check the site at least once per day to answer any buyer's questions. If you have a general question that would help the community, please post it in this thread. Specific individualized questions should be PM'ed.


-Paypal payment sent as "gift" is required unless the buyer is prepared to pay the additional costs of the money transfer. Money Orders are also accepted, but must clear my bank before shipping.


-OBO: Or Best Offer. If an offer is made below asking price, please allow a couple days for counter-offers. I will never sell based on popularity, post count, or higher offers than what is listed.



-I am attempting to list most of my items at a lower price than what is found on eBay or elsewhere. If you find the item cheaper (in the same condition), please PM me a link and I will try to beat it.


-Prices are in USD


-No brown product-specific shipping boxes.


-The Sideshow sales are not for mint box collectors. None of the boxes look kicked around or anything, but I will not claim that any are mint without at least shelf wear.


-Older SS figure stands had a problem with the silver on the stands not setting. This causes the paint to smear and transfer to the bottom of the feet. If you need to know the severity of the error (none are too bad at all) I will take pics for potential buyers.


-I had all my Sideshow extra hands stored together. Every attempt has been made to perfectly match skin tones, but there could be the possibility of "slight" variations. Nothing extreme whatsoever, but it should be mentioned. (Having 40+hands sitting in front of you is daunting.)

-Yes, preparing this sale did take me forever.


Shipping


-I have been burnt just about every time I sell here on shipping, because I always charge too little. My last sale cost me an additional 40.00 in shipping. That is all my mistake, so I have never bothered my buyers about it. I do need to try new things out though to correct this.


-I watch my 7 month old alone during the weekdays. This generally will mean that shipping will be limited to Saturdays. If I am able to ship faster, I certainly will. I will be available for questions and communication for buyers at least once per day. I will do my best to make the transaction a quality experience for you. Please note this before you buy. This is something that I have limited control over.


-All international sales will be approved on a case by case basis, based on cost and difficulty to ship. It is my intention not to limit the areas of delivery.


-Sideshow figures will have a flat shipping and handling rate of 16.00 in the continental US. Hot Toys will be set at $18.00


-I will negotiate shipping prices on heavy or large items. I will use either USPS or UPS (whichever is cheapest without compromising the delivery). If possible, please research approximate shipping costs before we discuss price. I am near Dallas, TX and my zip code is 75098. I believe SS's website has box dimensions.


-Local pick-ups waive all shipping and may be subject to further discounting.


RETURNS


-I do my absolute best to accurately describe items, and have never run into issues regarding this. However, if you find that I have misrepresented the item, it may be returned in the exact same condition I sent it in. I would pay for return shipping. Pictures and accurate descriptions required. I sincerely do not expect this, as it has never happened in 6 years of selling here.


-All other purchases are final.


*I will probably be adding a few more items. Check back!








THANKS FOR LOOKING! HAPPY COLLECTING!

[darthrazz]

Tried to send you a PM but your inbox is full!!

[DarthPhlegethon]

Same here-full inbox apparently. Not really thrilled with this new version of RS but whatever. Please let me know if you have interest in a 1/6 Medicom 501st clone as part of a trade for your 1/6 Han in carbonite. Thanks.

[Akiata]

Sorry about that. My inbox should work now. That was a change I hadn't noticed on this new board. Thanks for the heads up!

Sorry DP, I do not collect Medicom. Thanks for the offer though.

[Akiata]

A potential buyer politely pointed out the Carbonite and ANH Obi, are in the wrong price range. I was given an example, and I am gracefully and drastically reducing their price. I am on my iPad that won't let me edit on this board. Will change prices above tomorrow when I get to my computer.

ObiWan 65.00 down from 95.00. Carbonite Han 395.00 down from 575.00!

I mean it that I will adjust prices if I am shown clear proof! I'm okay with that!
I do negotiate!
