Tomy R2-D2 Magnet From Japan
Posted by Dustin on October 22, 2005 at 05:04 PM CST:

I have been wanting this piece for a few years now since it initially came out, I just didn't want to have to pay $20 for it. I finally found one on eBay.com for around $2 with only $6 S&H from Hong Kong. I used the "Buy It Now" feature and anxiously awaited for it to arrive.

A few days later it showed up onthe doorstep. I took it downstairs to the photo studio to shoot with a few other items. I shot the box images then went for the loose shots. Now, when I opened the box, my hands slipped, and Artoo went tumbling down to the hard cement floor, breaking into several pieces!

Furious, I bit my tongue, went straight up to the computer room, signed onto eBay.com, and bought another one from the same seller! So I ended up paying what I didn't want to initially, but oh well, he's finally home ;-)
