Guys, don't worry about the gold C3P0

[morris]

everyone is saying "Oh, my god , this gold C3PO is so expensive"

but here is what i think

there are 10000 gold C3PO right? so soon ebay will be flooded with them and price shall be competitive.

look at watto or jango fett, there is like 4-5 of them

and yet they are only fetching for like maximum 50USD

plus, you have to be reeally really really into lego to go after this droid

hence, stop fussing, we will all get one.

hence, stop fussing, we will all get one.

Hardly, of all the millions of people in the U.S., 1000 is a small number, with how many millions we have here. So, out of the millions of people who have one, how many would sell? I wouldn't, but people will, but there is not a number of them that would allow many poeple (out of our earth's population) to get one.

$0.2

Thus elevating prices every decade from now until mass apocalyptic disaster.

There are a lot more than 10,000 Jangos or Wattos on this earth, and none of them have the 'exclusive', 'collectors', 'one-of-a-kind' ring.

we will all get one.

No way.

10,000 C-3POs. Very small number.

$0.2

Twenty cents? they'll never get that cheap! ;-)

[Piranha]

If only TLG put those chrome gold C3POs in sets instead of the milky gold one.

Then everyone would be able to own one :-)

I'm not worrying,I'm panicking :-P

I'd better go buy 50 TIE Interceptors and a whole bunch Imperial Landing crafts

After all The Hoth Base and RC are exclusives and may not contain any of those golden droids

Now where did I park my armoured van..........

1000 is a small number,

there are 10000 available, not 1000, you know the difference between 1000 and 10000 right?

[natelite]

i dont know which planet you came from but 10,000 is still a small number in a world with 6 billion people. if only 0.01% of people are lego fans that's still a lot of "fans"

[JJ.walkers]

I't said "in the world" that means theres about, uhhh-I dono, 1000 in The US.

No, all of them are in the US. They're no available in Europe.

Well, now I'm curious about the other thing you said. You said they'd be almost all in the ILC, however until now we've been told they'll be exclusively in the new summer '07 sets. What's your current stance on it?

Hehe

On Lego.com it says that they will placed in the entire 2007 collecton except the battle packs.

So that includes the imperial landing craft

However that bit of info did not come from my friend who owns Hoth

It came from someone who might be right

I believe he was former Lego employee and often knows certain stuff that we don't

He also claims that there will be a Greek theme next year *wacko*

I'm confused...which did it come from? And you had earlier reported a large number, (around 70%) of the 3PO would be in the ILC, which is why I asked.

Came from a Bricklink member

70% was just an example

Most of them could be like 20%(which is still a lot)

Besides knowing to much can be bad(as I have learned from)

Repeat: "I'm under the impression that all of the Golden C-3PO's are being Randomly placed into the new '07 sets.

No, all of them are in the US. They're no available in Europe.

You should rather say: "No, all of them are in the US. They're no available in the World."

10,000 is pretty small. But still large. You could get one via the internet easy, but with a hefty price.

[iamded]

look at watto or jango fett, there is like 4-5 of them

There's a problem with that.

First off, there are waaay more than what you suggested.

Sencond, they arn't made of gold are they?

*sweet*

[Vader]

there are 10000 available, not 1000, you know the difference between 1000 and 10000 right?

Do you know the difference between freedom and the chamber???? |-/

i don't understand what you are trying to claim, the chrome C3P0 are not made of gold either (like jango and watto) , it is only PLATED gold

Do you know the difference between freedom and the chamber???? |-/

sorry, i apologize, my bad

i dont know which planet you came from

but what about this?

[Vader]

Firstly changing font on someones post wont do you any good, secondly if you hadnt of posted what you did i doubt you would of got that response from natelite.

You seem to have a real short fuse, so ill say again dont jump when posting. Think about what your gonna say and make sure its not going to upset anyone.

Indeed !! Or else your membership expenctency on EB will be quite short ! You were already warn so please change your ways asap.

In case people get confused, this is NOT plated gold. It is chrome gold in colour, like the chrome swords from castle or the chrome lightsaber hilts.

So were all of us! And I still remain that way.

You should rather say: "No, all of them are in the US. They're no available in the World."

Actually, "they're no available" is grammatically abysmal, as not only does the contraction abbreviate 'they are', which is not appropriate here, but 'no' is an interjection, not an adverb. You should rather say: "There are none available in the world" or "There aren't (are not) any available in the world."

(The 'W' in world should be in the lower case)

[Scouty]

Or "They're not available in the World."

Besides that, this thread doesn't look too good. (Three words with two o's...hehee.) Perhaps close it.

[Piranha]

Random being the Key word here

As I had once said There is no way to tell what sets contain more than others

I just thought I would tell you about, most of the C3POs being in ILC, to be friendly

You might say

Piranha

[supernova]

Firstly, the two points you raised are contradictory. How can it be that there's no way to tell what set contains more than others, and then at the same time the ILC has most C3POs?? >:-(

Anyway, in case you haven't noticed, your credibility depends on the history of posts you make.

[Athos]

I'd better go buy 50 TIE Interceptors and a whole bunch Imperial Landing crafts

If you want to cut your losses, I'll purchase some of those from you from 25% of MRSP? X-D

Ok now I'm starting to get real mad |-/

From now on I'm not gonna tell no one nothing

I already said I was wrong about K3PO

If you want to go through every single 2007 SW set you can

Thats what I meant by theres no way to tell

So you have to find all of the C3POs and see what set they came in

I will not commet anymore on K3PO or the Chrome gold one

>:-(

Using nice tone above,but not for long
