They're sold out now. Can anyone who gets one tell me what the face/head is for the non-human figure in this set? Is it the same head as any other set (for example, the Gasgano head from the Mos Espa Pod Race)? (...) money (...) (23 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) ?? A lot of the first release sets have been bargain priced, just not via S@H, but I have bought (literally) hundreds of Siths, most not at full price. This set was overpriced at 25 in my view. not sure it's even good value at 12.50 but I may (...) (23 years ago, 15-Sep-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I once got a randomly inserted mail-in card in a set that was good for a free gift. The gift I got (and that I heard other people received) was a cowboy keychain. Maybe you sent one of those cards in and forgot about it? :) John #388 (23 years ago, 18-Sep-01, to lugnet.starwars)
