so while looking at myck new SW insider the back cover has Boba and Jango Mini's and once again on yet another figure bobas bantha skull is upside down...did they do this on purpose or was someone sleeping on the job?

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?

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?

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.

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.

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

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

Your god won't be there to save you, or maybe I will

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.

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.
