The ones I ordered have showed up at my relatives in Michigan, the only problem is I don't know when I will be going over to see them or when they will be coming up to stay with us.
It was so long ago that I ordered I don't even remember how many I ordered - I am no I ordered at least 3...
one to keep, one to open, and one for my son.  (I think 5 was the max?)

Anyone have one of the original Duke arm version and the new arm version? I am assuming the ones that are waiting for me are the new arm from the later production run.

pdaat hooked me up on the original production run with the crappy Duke hands. 

I bought a second production run Doc with the updated hands off ebay.  I also managed to get a second one, but with damaged packaging.  That is the one I will open.

I've got one with a "2" on the flare gun, whatever that means.  I think that's the second production run?  I'm conflicted on whether or not I should open it, but I think I'll leave it in it's box, for now.  If I get my hands on a second, then that'll be my shelfer.

I am going to have ebay for him. It seems pretty unfair of Hasbro to release a mainstream carded figure like that. Maybe it only feels unfair because I've been able to participate in promos in the past when I lived in Oregon.

$14.00 with shipping is a decent price.  I'd be willing to part with that for the figure.  There are still a lot out there, it seems...  It's been half a year and still a lot of auctions, so hopefully by summer the prices will swing a little lower.  But man, do I wish they would have released him widely, too...  maybe there's still a chance to see him in a 5-pack or something.

I'd be interested to know how backed up their mail room is at sending these out.  I sent out two order forms - one in August and another in September...  if I get one in December, I hope that maybe I'll get a second in January.

My buddy in the States bought two, and one of them's for me.  I think he's going to ship him off to me along with the UBP.  Woot!
