Obi-Wan Episode III Elite Edition Lightsaber?

[Jediwannabe]

I've been out of town for less than a week but please say I did not miss an unannounced Elite Edition. The update I just received from MR says the following:

Yes, the Obi Wan Kenobi Episode III Lightsaber Elite Edition is officially sold out…but Spring Cleaning turned up more than just 2005 Collectors Society kits. That’s right – we have turned up a few (and we mean a FEW) Obi Wan Elite Edition Lightsabers…so, if you’ve e-mailed us and are on the official “Obi Elite Wait List,” expect us to contact you soon. If you are NOT on the Wait List, contact us IMMEDIATELY at CustomerService@MasterReplicas.com. Supplies are VERY limited, and we will fulfill orders for this Collectors Society Exclusive on a first-come, first-serve basis. Good luck, and May the Force be With You.

Please tell me this is a mistake?

It's a mistake.

Its happened before in previous years with some collectables which were offered to the collectors club. Not unussual. I don't think its the QC problem ones recycled out, I think its just an issue of improper stocking on their end. Happens with many businesses.

I think he is asking if there was an Episode III OWK Elite released that he did not know about? I noticed this too.

It must be a mistake simply because I never saw anything here or on Rebelscum about an Episode III EE.

It was definitely a typo regarding which episode the elite was from

It's a mistake (for now). Give it some time, and there will definitely be an EE version I'm sure.

I thought the same thing when I read it after coming back from my honeymoon. I thought I missed something, but it is indeed a mistake.

Yes, MR replied. It is a mistake.

Oh, I found a really cool Predator skull here in Mexico. It is not actual size but it's sweet.
