UPDATE: eBay Today: Tournament of Roses 501st Stormtrooper Figure
Posted By Anne on January 18, 2007
UPDATE: Due to a paperwork snafu these auctions went away for a day, but they are now properly relisted.
From the auction:
"The good folks at Lucasfilm Ltd. have asked us to auction a very special action figure to raise funds for the AIDS Emergency Fund. Your ENTIRE bid (except for seller's fees) will go toward these vital charities as part of a company-wide fundraising effort at Lucasfilm Ltd.
The 501st Stormtrooper Action Figure was first made available last year as a San Diego Comic-Con International exclusive. After it sold out it was made available via Hasbro's online shop, without the Comic Con logo, and that version also sold out. These two figures were then transformed into gifts for the participants in the "Star Wars Spectacular" entry in this year's Tournament of Roses Parade.
Each of these very limited figures contains an actual George Lucas 501st Honorary Membership trading card and a "Thank You" paragraph on the back along with the Star Wars Spectacular Rose Parade seal. These figures were available only to marchers from the 501st Legion, members of the Grambling State University marching band and to a select number of helpers."
Rebelscum Breast Cancer Awareness Charity Patch Posted By Philip on November 25, 2014: Thanks to everybody that ordered patches. I sent a check for $1,600.00 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation on Monday. While it's not as much as I hoped for, it's still very much appreciated. They will remain for sale in the store for anybody that still wishes to purchase them. Details after the jump.
