It stands for the official Shop of StarWars.com, Star Wars Shop. They have a solid selection of exclusives at all times so I've ordered from them regularly. My latest acquisition arrived in the mail yesterday after being ordered in mid-May! It is a Fossil watch that was not even produced before October and was listed on SWS for a very brief time as it's limited to a very low 300 pieces. Mine is #55 and it features the face of Vader as seen on last year's Trilogy DVD box set. My pick of the week in their current selection is a DARTH VADER LIVES t-shirt for $9.99. http://shop.starwars.com/catalog/product.xml?product_id=3840 I really want this one, http://shop.starwars.com/catalog/product.xml?product_id=104340but it only comes in Medium, and that size shirt just couldn't contain all the Sabacc. -Campbell EDIT: added the link to the SWS homepage at the top of this post for convenience.

Both came in perfect condition. I have to say, since they started sending out their figures in Star Cases I've not had a bad one.

Not a horrible price for a SWS exclusive. The way I'm talking myself into it is by remembering that Jorg Sacul sold for $10 at Celebration II. This time I'm paying $30 for the three new figures and $5 for the Jett Zukassa repack. I can live with that. Dale, you want a piece of this action? I'll order two if you like.

If I buy one it's $8 shipping, $9 if I buy two, and $12 if I buy three. Do you (or anybody here) want to ride along on this order to split postage? Let me know as soon as possible. The set is not even scheduled to ship till APRIL! Though the chances of it selling out soon are minor, I would really be mad at myself if I had to buy this on the secondary market for more. -Campbell

Posts: 6068 Sat, Dec 31, 2005 4:46 AM Consul - Orlando System Baron Admin	I just placed an order for two of these, one for me, and one for you, Dale. There's a really good chance that these will still be available when we decide to buy whatever's next (the Lucas Family doesn't come out till April) but on the off chance that it sells out we're covered. This is a piece I really want to own- and it's the reason I now plan to return my Zett Jukassa carded figure. If we do find something else we want to order I'll attempt to cancel this order and then re-order it as part of the next one. We must be patient.

Also even it I get the the pack I'll still need a Zett to pose with my other jedi figures. Unless you have to return him let me know......

I think I might remember my paypal if would work better. It's not a big hurry and I'll definitely get it. It's kinda nice not worrying about finding him now.

They're quite expensive, not for everybody, but an interesting larger companion to Hasbro's scale. Here's one of a few types of Stormtroopers.

Posts: 6068 Wed, Apr 19, 2006 1:46 AM Consul - Orlando System Baron Admin	SWS is now offering a $1600 Japanese GSX Vader watch. While the 300-piece ltd. edition is out of my reach, I was excited to see it has a Death Star Moon Phase indicator. How cool is that? I hope Fossil appropriates this feature on day. In other watch news- does anyone recall the 300-piece Vader watch SWS had last year? I bought it because I loved the OT DVD Vader art on the face. After waiting 6 months to receive it (pre-order) I decided to sell it via a successful Ebay auction back in December. Mine was #51 or something. Last month I got an e-mail from SWS saying a manufacturing error had caused the first 150 and the second 150 pieces to go out, both numbered 1-150! That is, there are two of 1-150, and no 151-300. Oi! What a gaff!

In the long run having 2 autos of these big time directors may be worth it.. but $450 !!! Plus, for Lucas... I wish it was a Star Wars item and I've seen what Lucas's autograph looks like.. Its a scribble mess! $450 for a name you can't read ??
