The participation prizes are amazing. As someone who occasionally flys Plo, color me jealous of those able to go.

wow

I see things I didn’t even know I wanted.

Ugh... I wonder how much those Plo Repaints are gonna go for

<gollumVoice>me wants it precious</gollumVoice>

I begin to spare money because I want one !

I’m registered for the last chance qual. I used to say I’m having fun either way but man I really want to get into worlds now just for the participation only swag.

There are obviously lots of other prizes FFG could sell for profit and I know that part of being a "prize" is the exclusivity, but man, FFG could sell a ton of that Plo repaint with the custom tokens. Even if they only sold it through the website or something. They would sell a lot of those.

Honestly? I wouldn’t care about it except for that exclusivity value. I wouldn’t buy it if it was for sale. But because it looks cool AND it’s a token of remembering an accomplishment, that’s what makes me want it.

I am going to have to start saving up for that Plo repaint. Been both dying for and dreading an official Jedi repaint release.

Man, I see Plo Koon's Starfighter going for hundreds... 😭 That's the one I want the most.

Painting Plo isn't that hard. I figured it out and I have no idea what I'm doing. I promise that you can all do it too for around $30 (counting a new ship model).

I wants that Plo repaint. 😩

There was so much anger and hurt over the limited edition Vulture...I suspect this one will generate an ever larger thread of resentment.

Personally, I think FFG is really missing the boat on this one. They should start selling these alternate painted ships right along with the standard ones.

An ingenious scheme would be to sell the repaints in the normal Delta-7 packaging. The rest of us can get the paint scheme, but the cool tokens and Plo-themed goodies stay exclusive to Worlds.
