How many "medal" figures are there? Are there any retired yet? Quote

When collecting this specifically for the minifig, do you remove it from the package? If so, how do you store it? Quote
TheOrcKing Posted March 29, 2013 Posted March 29, 2013 What exactly is a "medal" figure? How many "medal" figures are there? Are there any retired yet? In the Star Wars: Character Encyclopedia you have Han Solo at the end of "A New Hope" wearing a golden medal. And in the Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary you have Luke also from "A New Hope" with a medal. Quote

comicblast Posted March 29, 2013 Author Posted March 29, 2013 I have a few questions about this: What exactly is a "medal" figure? How many "medal" figures are there? Are there any retired yet? A medal figure is a figure that comes one of the Star Wars books or movies. It is supposed to be celebrating the release of the respective item. There are 3 medal figures out right now, Celebration Luke, Celebration Han Solo, and the new Celebration Darth Vader. None are retired yet, but I think that the book with Luke in it may EOL soon, but as all EOL's, it is pure speculation. Quote
weakside Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 I picked up 2 of these dvd's on Amazon.ca for $7.99 CAN today, basically I needed Darth Vader mini figure for a MOC and this was probably the cheapest/easiest way without buying him separately online...the dvd is just extra haha. Not bothered about the 'medal' variation or not. The second set I'll keep for 'investing'. Quote

One for me, one to keep (I guess another one for me!) is a common investing strategy. You sound like you haven't left us anything to teach you! ;) Quote
Blackjack Posted April 19, 2013 Posted April 19, 2013 The only reason anyone was going to buy this was the Darth Vader, so at least TLG priced it dirt cheap. Quote
chinothegeeko Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Found these at Sams club for $7.99 only bought the 2 they had and opened one. Holy hell it is actually pretty funny. Kids and I love when Darth Maul arrives. Quote
JoshTX Posted April 29, 2013 Posted April 29, 2013 I got a good kick out of this. Chewbacca coming out of the bathroom with "toilet paper foot" was pretty funny. Quote
