atkinsar

Does anyone know anything about this polybag: #6012306 Battle of Hoth Dice Keychain, is it a promo/for sale, if so where did it come from etc

Any info gratefully received.

^ and he's also looking to obtain 3 of them!

:-)

That black tile is nice. The other plates (except the lego one) are from the Hoth board game.

Huw

I've asked the guy who sent me the image.

Sounds like you're breaking out in a cold sweat there, @atkinsar :-)

atkinsar

I am actually, but for an entirely different reason, trying to get to grips with SketchUp to produce a 3D model of my Lego room. The air is a distinctly child unfriendly shade of blue in my house right now.

Huw

"during the presentation of the game in Milano", apparently.

atkinsar

Right, well I haven't got any contacts in Italy so now what? ;-)

Joseph

^ Maybe add a request to the end of your next polybag article? It's at least worth a shot.

LostInTranslation

^ *cough* abuse of privileges *cough*

:-)

richo

You can't honestly want three of those mate. I have about ten spare dice from parting out sets like Ramses Pyramid!!!

atkinsar

^ you have read my articles right?

Legoboy

4!

carlq

^ only 4, @Legoboy? Surely he'll want more than that? ;-)

Legoboy

He'll want one or two, @atkinsar will want one or two, and I'd like one. ;-)

orzo

Hi! I'm the owner of the dice (Sounds pretty cool!), i try to remember in which event i take this, but i'm sure in the first part of 2012, in one of these:

Huw

Thanks, not much chance of getting them now then, particularly as it's not on BrickLink.

atkinsar

Well now I really want it!

orzo

I've found a reseller in italy that have several of it. I bought some to sell on bricklink but, like Huw said, this gear is not on database.

Legoboy

@orzo - I'd be inrterested in a couple if you want to send me a pm with a price. There's probably a few others in the uk @atkinsar, @collect_that, that would take you up on them also so if you get numbers, I don't mind distributing within the uk. Cheers.

atkinsar

Indeed!

greekmick

Please consider me if someone manages to get hold of them.

orzo

I've opened one bag, @Huw do you need some pics? I don't have a scanner, sorry :(

murphquake

@orzo I'm interested too, though I might try to trick poor @atkinsar into getting them to NYC for me... Will send a pm

atkinsar

^ you pay the airfare though. Christmas time would be good.

sidersdd

@orzo I'm interested in one as well, especially if one can piggyback stateside via @murphquake/@atkinsar. I'm not a polybag collector, nor a Star Wars collector, but am a game collector.
Thanks.

murphquake

@sidersdd sounds good to me

Russell844

@sidersdd and @murphquake, can I get in on it too?

Joseph

^ Ditto :-).

hantot

@orzo I'd also be interested in one if there are any spare...

sidersdd

So, @murphquake, are you going to be point on the U.S. side? If you don't want to, I can have @orzo send them to me, and then I'll send them out to you, @Russell844 and @Joseph. Makes no matter to me.

murphquake

@sidersdd I don't mind doing it, and @atkinsar has a couple things for me already so they can all swim here together... How many is that to the US so far then, 4? @joseph I already talked to, and that leaves @russell844 ...

Russell844

@murphquake, I would like two if possible.

murphquake

@Huw nice new avatar :-)

atkinsar

Huh, so what I am doing? Tell me what where and when and I'm happy to help if possible.

Huw

^^ Glad you like it: the text needs tidying up a bit but otherwise it's just the job :-) We should all get one done...

murphquake

Well, @atkinsar, according to the London police CCTV system it looks like the chicken dance, but if you don't mind shaking down @legoboy for some dice we'd like some here, could pack them with whatever you've got for me at the time and I'll send to everyone in the US. Sound good?

@russell844 fine by me let @orzo know

atkinsar

Legoboy is asking orzo about getting a few more, but can I just check, have any of you stateside been in touch with orzo personally yet? I'm trying to avoid duplication of orders.

orzo

In the end, today I've got all the bags available in this store! Well, I think there's no problems with quantity now! :D

murphquake

Nice work @orzo! @atkinsar I contacted him directly

Russell844

I contacted orzo directly as well.

atkinsar

I'm confused!

Legoboy

Lol. This thread is mad. :o) I've seny @murphquake and @Russell844 a pm. :o)

Joseph

^^ From what I know, most of us have contacted orzo directly, but told him that we're combining shipping. We then have been in contact with murphquake who seems to be in charge of getting it stateside and will let orzo know how many the combined number is. At least that's how it seems to me.
The one thing that's still confusing me is why are they going first to @Legoboy and then to @Atkinsar when it could just go to one of the two who then ships it to the US?

And of course this is all assuming that shipping to the U.K. And then to the U.S. Is cheaper than shipping directly to the U.S.

murphquake

my brain hurts!

Joseph

Just so @Atkinsar knows, we're trying to work this out by pm right now.

Legoboy

^Lol, he knows! :o)

Joseph

^ Aaah, I think my head's going to explode soon :o).

orzo

What a mess i've created :D
The shipment costs are in this page:
http://poste.it/postali/estero/raccomandata_prezzieformati.shtml
"Zona1" is in europe
"Zona2" is outside europe (including US)
"Zona3" is... Oceania :D
you decide if you want to ship directly to US or not

Joseph

^ Thanks for the link; looking at that, shipment directly to the US might be cheaper. Do you by any chance know roughly how many grams one polybag is?

orzo

Yes! Its weight is 18 grams :)
