Had to tell someone! Just paid for these, HHF-1:

http://www.headphile.com/page7.html

It was hard enough constantly checking to see if (SOON...) was up yet, but now I have to wait for them to get here! Going to be tough.

Anyway, can't wait.

It was very close between those and the deal 15 darth beyers. Glad I paid the extra though. Can always get darths later, HHF-1 are a bit rarer.-

Congratulations! As usual, Larry's work is beautiful.

I've also been constantly monitoring the HHF-1, and I even checked yesterday. You beat me to it, but my wallet thanks you.

Congrats Steve! Those are the best looking HHF-1's I've seen.

Larry's work and quality appear to improve with every project.

Wow, those are truly beautiful. I love the alternating scheme Larry set up - total drool-inducer.

The Snakewood Darths have my attention... and I haven't even gotten mine back yet!

Thanks guys!

Going to be a hard week of waiting now.

Will be sure to post impressions of these puppies when I hear them. Not really sure what to expect 100% but I know they'll be good!

If only I could afford those deal 15 darth's too...
