not sure if anyone else has seen these yet, but they look like a really cool way to display loose figures!

the empire one will be interesting when they do it, i wonder what scene they will choose.

They seem to be picking scenes from the start of the films so I guess it will be Hoth.

Strange choice for Jedi, I would have thought one with Luke, Vader and the Emperor would have been more obvious

i think the jabba's palace one is because there are more figures from those scenes, what with all the monsters i think there are about 18 figures and thats without chewie, boba, c3po .

i would have picked the endor moon though ...love them speeder bikes :D

the company went bust a while ago - there won't be any other displays. You can still pick up the SW one though, there were a few at memorabilia.

Were the Jedi or Sith displays ever produced?

Jedi definitely wasn't produced and I don't think the Sith one was either.

That's a good price for that cabinet Jay but I'm not sure they were ever on sale either.

These were though 8) 8)

I looked into virtually every kind of cabinet going and settled on the Ikea route, cheapest by far :D

its the time and space jay - I'd like to give it a go, but I'd need a bit of practice first and clear out the shed to work on it. It would probably look **** after all that as well - wood isn't my forte
