Are these the miniatures you're talking about? The heavy metal miniatures bundled with issues of Star Wars Figuras De Plomo, a "partworks" magazine printed by Planeta DeAgostini of Spain?

"I'm just a simple Fan, trying to make my way in the universe."
no they are the ones in the bounty hunter packs that are coming out jango has flames around him and boba is in a stance...im still trying to find a picture of them.
―Peter Griffin
Ah, do you mean the ones a few lines down on this thread?
"I'm just a simple Fan, trying to make my way in the universe."
yea those r the ones, i cant get a good pic of the magazie because i get a glare everytime.

My wife sent me a bunch of mail to where I'm at, and it had the new Insider in it. That is a pretty neat pic. I like the "Answer to no one" slogan. I don't have my scanner with me here, or I'd hook you up, dude. Sorry. Anyone else have a scanner that could help out?
"I'm just a simple Fan, trying to make my way in the universe."
Hey, I still don't have my scanner out yet, but I did manage to snap a shot of the same promo inside one of the recent Toyfare mags. This is a pretty neat promo for the miniatures.
"I'm just a simple Fan, trying to make my way in the universe."
thank you sadriel i tried 1,000 different ways to get it on but yes thats it so does anyone own one because they are currently going for 40$ up i wonder if it was just on the prototypes or what
―Peter Griffin
Yeah, they look really nice. I really like the Jango Fett one. The reason they're that much is because they're both rarities. I believe that Mandalore the Indomitable goes for around the same amount.
"I'm just a simple Fan, trying to make my way in the universe."
ouch that sucks i'd only want Boba maybe theirs a even rarer variant where the patch is correct...one can hope can't he?
―Peter Griffin
They don't generally do variants like that in SW Minis.
My Boba's Mark is upside down buyt otherwise he looks damn cool.
My brother's Jango looks pretty cool as well...
And don't even get me started about how cool Mandalore looks...Cos there are not enough metaphors
the only rare 1 i have is Hoth Leia and she looks awful, wish i had Boba...please Santa? lol

"HO HO HO Dageen, I'm not made of money."
Its true he's not.
Yea well i amin the sack with mrs. clause so she slipped me boba figure inwhen Snata wasn't looking :)
―Peter Griffin
Seems like too big a sacrifice to my reputation to me....
But hey whatever floats your metaphorical boat...
40 for a little miniature, i'd rather take my chances with the randomized boxes, even if u didnt get it you'd get many of cool ones
I got Boba for round about $30.
Of course I paid in pounds, so thats only a rough estimate of what you would have paid.
Anyone willing to trade thiers for Hoth Leia? lol
―Peter Griffin
I don't have any of these figures, but I, like you guys would LOVE to have the Boba and Jango ones. Yeah, I was a little disheartened when I saw they both were rares, but I wouldn't mind trying to get them too! Upside-down symbol and all.
i got a bounty hunter box set i got a mandalorian soldier but i also got CRAPPY one like a gun for hire and the big minature (like sail barge or basilisk) turned out to be a stupid spider droid with bent legs but at least i got a MANDALORIAN SOLDIER
