During Celebration VII I was informed that the 501st was going to getting a discount on it. Not sure if that went through. I said that I wasn't going to worry about getting it but after seeing the movie and a lot of my friends with it I'm like "come on, you have to at least think about it now". Last I heard on the price was around $1800. Not sure if that's still what they're going for or not. But, I would like to know and others are now probably wanting to know the same stuff.
