Love the Ep1 Obi-Wan fx saber, been waiting a long time for that - would you happen to know if that version will be (re)released with a removeable blade?

Also, have Acme finished their character key line?

At this stage, all I have seen confirmed are Anakin, Vader and Obi-Wan E3.

Following up on character keys for you

Hey Kristy, got this email from Acme today:

Hi Hugh -

We will be releasing the last key in the animated (the Genndy style animation) series in time for ComicCon I believe and will have a key at C5 as well.

Not sure how that will go for us NZ collectors to get them, but I'll be asking the question! Wonder which characters they're doing... I know a Wicket was in the works at one stage, however that may have fallen through.

Interestingly, the Ventress comes with attachment to make a double bladed version

Whilst the above image pretty much sums it up, I just wanted to alert all forum members that there are some stupidly good savings going on, with some of our stock going out at cost price. If you've been considering something from our website, have a look cos now might be the right time to buy!

(Cough) Link: Reel Collectibles website (cough)

Now, in further news, there's a good reason for the sale. In approx 2-3 weeks, we will be moving out of our current premises we've enjoyed for about 7 years now. Quite simply, the current store location is not working for us, so we're scaling back to operate via our website and at Armageddons until we can find a more suitable physical location. Many of you who visited over the years, probably at Winter Festival, may shed a small nostalgic tear.

I'd like to repeat and emphasise however that we are not closing as such, more like relocation, we just don't know where to yet
The plan is that we will be able to find somewhere around December and re-open. And in the meantime, our website is still fully operational and we will be present at Auckageddon, so it's business as usual on those fronts. Apart from the crazy prices on the website at the moment of course!

Lastly, there's exciting new developments on the website front, but you'll just have to wait for that announcement!

Sorry to hear that a change in location/strategy is necessary. How the current/future plan continues to bear fruit for you.
