I thought you would find this auction interesting. This is an ended auction for a trio of clones of a body type that we haven't seem, as of yet. I could really use that helmet and swing down visor combo for a couple of skinny clone projects.
  This auction originated in Malaysia. I am starting to wonder if this and some of the auctions with the multiples of clone figures available might be the result of a factory worker ferrying home products from the assembly line or something.
    here is a link to the auction.

There were at least 3 different auctions for this trio at the same time. I actually won one of them for less than the shipping cost. other two were too high for me. i will have to let you know when i get them. one for me, one for my son, and a third to put on display. the wife is sooo happy about that.

Let us know if you find more of these on auction, DRS. I wouldn't mind having one.

Not really sure how to post the link to the auctions. there are 2 buy it now auctions for entirely too much money. one is for a single figure and the other is for three figures, loose of course. In ebay store unlimited8899 under the star wars tab of course. shipped from.... malaysia. i have bought from here before and was happy with the items and price. but you ussually have to wait a bit for more of the items for bids to be updated. buy it now is always too expensive. i believe i got one auction under best offer and paid about half of the asking price. 2 weeks for them to arrive... 10 to 14 days, up to 20 if bigger order.

Thanks for the info, DRS! To post a link to an auction here, Copy the url at the top of your browser when it is pointed at the auction,in ebay.  Then, when you are posting here, click the icon that looks like the earth which is the control to insert a hyperlink. you will see this appear. [ url ]   followed by this [ /url ]

in between the two inner brackets,  ][, paste your copied url. After you submit your post, it should work. There is some html that you can write to alter the links appearance so that you don't see a bunch of text but I will explain that later.

Here's one from another seller in Malaysia.
droidbait trooper

I went ahead and bought one from the seller that DRS had mentioned for a bit cheaper than this. Wow, I'm going to get a new skinny clone!

Here is a mon calamari rebel pilot figure that the seller that DRS had mentioned has for a decent price.
Mon Calamari Pilot This fig isn't out yet either, is he?

Here is another one from a different seller. User ID Tunghori
    This is one of the sellers that has the listings of 5 of one type of figure like that ATAT driver auction that Shawn took advantage of. My theory of where these figures originate is seeming more and more true, to me. This auction even uses the same factory pre-release pic that Rebelscum posted 3 days ago.
  This and other sellers have been listing these unreleased figures as custom figures, now.

Clone Commander Bly Take a look and see what you think. The paint looks pretty factory fresh, to me.

Here is another one from the same seller in the Phillipines.
Clone Echo
I know that I have seen this pic of this fig, before.

I know one thing, if I had waited to find those five atat driver lots from Hong Kong I would have 100 or so for the price I paid for the twelve carded ones I have. Sometimes those loose auctions go for too much, but if you can find em ending at wierd times you can cash in.
