Qui-Gon Mail Away

I made this post for the future. I know we were talking about it elsewhere. Anyway, Morning Light is mailing me some redemption forms. I looked through my UPC's and have ten exactly of the Build A Droid series. So with the money I should be good to go.

I only have the mail away Rex UPC and the 501st Legion Trooper for The Clone Wars. I haven't collected any others, even though they look great, due to cut backs in collecting.

I looked at these cases and all of them are assortment 87535 (besides the comic con ones at the top)

So I should be able to use any of these figures, right?

I am pretty sure that you can use those. I used 15 from figures that did not bear the mail logo. My checks were cashed and Qui-Gons were mailed.

Holy CRAP! If anyone buys from Casefresh, I hope the figures come with lube! Cuz someone is getting it HARD!

$136.00 for 8 figures? Even Starwasshop is preselling cases of 12 for only

$95.00

Haha, I didn't even see the prices. I was just looking at the assortment numbers. Wow, they suck! It's a nifty little web page to see the cases coming out though. I usually look at Entertainment Earth too.

Thanks to Morning Light, I got two redemption forms and mailed away for two Qui-Gon and Eopie figures. One for my son at Christmas and one for me. I had just enough build a droid upc's. I can't believe I only traded for and bought ten of that whole line. If only I were rich! I only have two clone wars figures too! That's pretty sad.

Thanks Morning Light for the help!

So what's the deal. Why is the fish called Opee and this thing called Eopie? It seems weird that they used words that sounded so much alike.

I just won on E-Bay the Qui-Gon and Eopie Mail Away figure for 10.00 U.S. Dollars considering that at 7.94 a figure x 5 =39.70 plus sales tax making it total to 42.48 U.S. Dollars plus the 6.99 U.S. Dollars for cost of mail away and .42 cents for the stamp bringing it to a grand total of 49.89 U.S. Dollars this is a great value. I'm still mailing away for another of these figures to keep mint in box but E-bay may be the way to pick up a few extra of these mail aways if you don't want to have to buy extra figures to open or don't have the pops available to purchase the mail away figure.

On another note. I was confused as the numbers listed on the offer form did not match anything I had. I was finally able to contact Hasbro after trying several E-mails and I talked to a live person and was told as long as the Proof of Purchases came from the red card series, Legacy, The Clone Wars, or Build a Droid I should be Okay even if they did not bear the redemption logo on figures. The numbers referred to on the order form do not match like the ones that were used for the Rex Mail Away! I don't even know if Hasbro really looks closesly at the pops as long as the check is good. That probably all that really matters!

i used a couple of pops from the blue card lines. got mine.

I REALLY want to mail mine out. I'm holding off though, because they don't ship to PO boxes, and there is a good chance that my street address will change before the mail aways arrive.


Don't you think it's kinda stupid that none of these offers will ship to a PO box, and yet where do we mail the redemptions to? A PO box! WTF????

Thanks Darth Myles I'll have to give that a try. I have about 10 of the old blue card pops already and was going to toss them. Trying to clean up some of the mess you know. That would be great if these pops work since the pops are from figures that my son opened. I'm not an opener by nature and only open if I have two of something. I was really wanting a couple more of these mail-aways to keep for trade or gifts perhaps. Looks like Hasbro shipped a ton of them! No resale value but great for addition to my collection and for 7.00 bucks a great value even if it is a repack!

I just got my first Qui-Gon and Eeopie in the mail today! My son will love it! He was just asking me why he doesn't have any Qui-Gon Jinn figures.

Thanks to everyone who helped me out with these. It's a pretty good deal for $7 shipping.

I'm glad Hasbro listened to me finally when I did the probe droid poll over at Rebelscum. I stated that I would rather see mail away offers come back rather than that UPC auction thing they did a while back. Reminds me of being a kid and mailing away for that Kenner Boba Fett before anyone knew who he was! LOL! I still remember that like it was yesterday. 1980 forever baby!

Kind of funny but I just got mine in as well. I won one earlier and opened him but told my son that next one would be his. I think he has forgot about it and it just arrived yesterday so I'll be wrapping it for a special present to keep mint in box or open which ever he chooses. I really do agree with Xaos that mailing away and anticipating the figure coming is much better than auction. It is difficult to bid on things enough when you are using real money. clip 5 and mail the bucks so much easier!

J1M,
I have the form and pops for your mail in. I just need to send it in.

Thanks Darth

I know there has been a lot of discussion about this mail-away figure. I have't seen it as a UK TRU exclusive yet, but saying that not many stores are stocking anything but Clone Wars and Legends waves.

I didn't realise that you had saved POPs for me - thanks. That really means a lot. I had a really crappy week and it is good to pop into the forum and have such generous friends. Cheers.

Not a problem J1M!
The UK Qui Gon and Eopie are supposed to be out some time next year.

Got my second Qui-Gon and Eeopie today. I opened it and posed him and they look great. I'm not too keen on EP1 stuff, even though I have most of the main figures, but this is definitely one of the better pieces from that film. Plus I am a sucker for any Star Wars "beast" so I love it! I added a nice little light saber effect to my pic.

Wow Great background with the picture. If you had three of them you could make them look like the three wisemen riding their camels....Eopies! The Qui Gon is a great figure 'cept my first one I got had two right hands!

Looks like Hasbro released a ton of these and should be able to pick some up dirt cheap with some savy bidding on E-bay!

It's funny that you say that, I almost put a wise men background behind him! lol!

Actually got these yesterday. They are the exclusive comic con funko bobbleheads limited to 1008 pieces. My local Sound shop music store is going out of business and they had them down to 40 percent so I spent like almost 11.00 each. Not bad for exclusive bobblehead. I'll post pictures when I can.

Does anyone know IF.....

you can use some of the POPS from older series like the TAC collection? I have a bunch of these I am looking to get rid of as well. I am finally going to mail out a form, and one for the Clone Wars Nahdar Vebb figure. I have plenty of POPS for the build a droid figures, but was wondering if I could pass these off on them.

I would assume that you could send any POPs - It still shows that you have the figure. There was never an issue with the vintage line with sending these.

The mail ins are on delay. Got a post card a few weeks back letting me know that I could cancel it or wait it out.

Waiting it out since it will be going to J1M.

Makes you wonder if they are going to be prepared for the Boba mail in.

I got my postcard for the first Qui-Gon mail in. I need to send in for my second before the deadline.

Hasbro has NEVER been prepaired for a mail away, with the exception of the re issue early bird kit. I got those figures rather quickly.


Every other mail in offer from Hasbro has been messed up. Remember the Spirit of Obi-Wan figure? I never got mine. Kellloggs Han Stormtrooper? Got mine, but it took a long time.

Even back in the vintage days, they would under estimate. I think EVERY mail in offer back then had some sort of note or delay notice sent out.

BUT, you answer your question, DF. I am sure Hasbro will be completely F'D when the overwhelming responce for the mail in Boba Fett is more then they can handle. If I had to predict now, I would say we will be looking at up to a YEAR before they are caught up with that offer.

Got mine in today!

Wish I had stopped slacking and actually sent out for the other one. I guess if I want one to keep boxed, I'll hit up ebay. The shape my mailer box came in, It was an opener for sure.

I got JED1 JIM's wednesday and it is on it's way to him now.
