Spoke to the guys over at Hip yesterday. Not happy. Turns out im only getting the Yodas 'not the Darths'. They said that there was a mistake with how many they received thus people could only have 1 pair.
Not very happy when I have had them pre-ordered for 3 months. Anyway on the bright side 'nice pun', at least im getting the Yodas.

OOOOOH welcome to pokey hell!!I've just received a phonecall from my brother who holds an account at "hip" cause the bottleless manager didnt have the balls to ring me.The shop boy aka dumb fook sold my yoda's and darths yesterday!!!!!Even though there was instructions left for the size 7s to be put to 1 side for pickup 2day.
I AM TRUELY GUTTED AND UNBELIEVABLY PISSSSSSSSSSSSED OFF
P.S the guy who bought them and is now trying to sell off his darths and yoda's having had them less than 24hrs ********** you've taken away the chance for a real adidas fan to own these. who's out the make a quick buck outta peoples passion!!!

I feel for you pal. I don't have a clue what happened over at Hip. I only found out that they had arrived at the shop due to a post on Crooked Tongues. Also they where meant to give me a ring. I had been ringing them every other day for updates too.
Im off to pick the Yodas up tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

We don't really have specialist "sneaker" shops like they do in the states? Or maybe I'm misinformed...

All you Yoda heads, feel free to make me offers before they go on the bay. Size UK 10,5
Nice to hear that you buy to re-sell 'at least you are honest'. I will give you a tenner!
Hostly - what did you pay '£115'. What can you see them getting on the Bay?

Sorry to rub it in guys but I have taken collection today of my UK 9's in both the Darth Vader's and the Yoda's
After a sleepless night and pulling a sick day today it has all been worth the wait
Now I have them both I have to say I prefer the Yoda's

Oooh do tell, you can't say things like that and not give out details/pic/measurements/colours/bacon sandwich
The Yoda's are in a galaxy far, far away better than the darths. (Can you see what I did there?)
What happened to the guy who came on here saying that he worked for adidas - I was expecting some cheeky first looks at all the new stuff.

Good man! What is it like to work for Mr Dassler? Good pension? Dental?
I'd be like a kid in a sweet shop if I worked for them, I'd be wandering off to different deparments asking them could they do me a one off copy of the liverpool white away candy kit that they wore for one game or could they make me a pair of Torsion Artillery II that I had when I was a daft teenager - THE BEST PAIR OF TRAINERS I EVER HAD
Apart from my shells, naturally.
