Title: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: stan on October 29, 2003, 08:54 PM
It is now listed in Toy R Us Computer that they will be getting
a X Wing retailing at $45.00.  The X wing is title  "RED LEADER"
So our wishes for  Graven may happen sooner than what we think!!!!

More Later!!!!!!

Post by: Boba Binks on October 29, 2003, 09:04 PM
I wonder how this X-Wing will be? Just a redeco of the Dagobah X-Wing?
Does not matter to me as long as it has a figure. :)

Interesting news.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Angry Ewok on October 29, 2003, 09:28 PM
I'd buy the figure alone, but I don't think I want another X-Wing... well, maybe... I'll wait to see the pics.

Hmmm, $45 for the Saga X-Wing with a figure?  Eh...  :(  

Not that I'm NOT happy to get a Red Leader figure (If he has a removable helmet), but $45 for another X-Wing is pretty expensive...  
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Darby on October 30, 2003, 02:03 AM
Yeah, this is one of those moments as a SW diehard where you go, "Do I really need it?"  I want a Red Leader figure, but if I have to plunk down $45 on a ship I already have for him, then nah.  More power to them, though.

Post by: obi-dad on October 30, 2003, 08:01 AM
Do we even know for sure it will come with the Red Leader figure?   Haven't we always had cheap rehashes for figures if the vehicle comes with a figure at all?
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Scott on October 30, 2003, 09:40 AM
Well, it would be very easy to put a new head and repaint the helmet on the Gold Leader or Luke Body from POTJ...while a cheap rehash it is a welcome one

I am also hoping that Jimmy's report that an Astromech will be packed in also happens!

This is good news. I love the saga X-Wing.

I only wish we had a new Y-Wing that was to scale to the X-Wing. Especially with the reports of Gold Leader coming out next year. Damn, I'm going to need to have a bigger apartment by the end of next year!  ;D

Or maybe they could include the Yavin Accesory Set stuff? All those lil boxes/ladders? I dunno.

It'll probably be a seperate R unit, plus the pilot, and that's it.

I would be happy with the Yavin Accesory set with it.  However, I want several of those, so I guess that's not the answer for me.

Stan, just wondering how certain you are about this.  After all, there is the  game for Nintendo's Game Cube called Rogue Leader.  Just wondering if there might've been a mix-up.  I've been checking on this and my sources haven't delivered yet.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Jesse James on October 31, 2003, 04:22 PM
I too wonder what the deal is with this finding in the store's computer...  Should be interesting to see what comes of it.  It seems awfully early for an exclusive like this to be creeping into TRU's system already...  But, sometimes the product makes the system immediately after the details of the exclusive have been finalized and the product is a "go".

I'll be anxious to see exactly what this is that Stan's uncovered though...  Makes for good discussion to say the least. :)

Hey nicklaband Jesse.,
  Here is the  sku #957089 entitled "RED LEADER"
The previous x wing  that they released last year said Red Five!!!!
Check it out!!!!  This could very well be it!!!!! Glad you ask!!!
Let me know what everyone find out!!!!! ;D ;D

Thanks for the SKU, stan.  I'll check that out.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Morgbug on November 1, 2003, 09:59 PM
Well
$5 for the human
$5 for the droid
$35 for the ship

Is that still bad when the ship is $35?  What was the Dagobah X-wing down there?  It was $54 up here.  

Count me in for one, maybe two.  I've got enough Tie Fighters now (hmm, should I get the new one?) that having three-five x-wings could make for an interesting ceiling display :)

Now has Red Leader up for preorder :-*

And here was the mock up that Jeremy posted a few weeks ago

(http://www.rebelscum.com/toys2/hasbro2004_redleader.jpg)

I really hope Red Leaders astromech also comes with him, it is a R5 unit

Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Jesse James on December 11, 2003, 12:19 PM
$30's reasonable enough...  Better than $40 for Luke's which was pretty overpriced I thought.

$30 is much more reasonable for a ship they already have the toolings for.  I just hope the figure isn't a poor quality piece, and they genuinely put some effort into him.  A removable helmet and new headsculpt on a Wedge CS body would suit me fine.

And I agree with Scott in that I'd like to see the R5 unit packed in too.  I'm not expecting it though, but I'd love for it to be there.  His R5 had one of the most unique paint schemes of any astromech in the films I thought.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Paul on December 12, 2003, 08:40 AM
The possibility exists for a decent Pilot figure.  They have in their factories, the Wedge with Removable helmet and the new Gold Leader.

I am just hoping it is not like the Y-Wing Pilot we got with it.  

I'd take his astromech too.  Very cool possibilities.

But I think somebody else also pondered the idea that it MIGHT be a Rebel Technician...maybe that one from the cancelled sets (like the DS Trooper, Scout Trooper, Hoth Abomination, Battle Droid sets, I can't remember what they were called.)

Here is the question at the price are people going to buy it or are they going to wait for the clearance like in the past?  I am going to snag 2 in the beginning and hopefully have enough $ laying around to buy another at each price drop.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Diddly on December 12, 2003, 08:05 PM
Sorry if this has already been asked, but is it JUST an X-Wing, or does it include a Red Leader figure or R2 unit? Thanks.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Scott on December 12, 2003, 11:05 PM
We don't know for sure if it will even include a pilot (as most exclusive vehicles have done recently).  I guess it would make sense to do at least that (there is a figure in the mockup picture).  Two pack ins (Garven and R5) might be pushing it...
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Boba Binks on December 13, 2003, 07:39 AM
Two figures would be nice. The TRU Dagobah X-Wing only came with R2. I hope there are two figs in this package. We need to have the correct Astro Unit.

(http://www.rebelscum.com/potf2/POTF2ywingpilot.jpg)
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Jesse James on December 16, 2003, 04:19 PM
Yeah, which if that's the case I'll be passing on this set I believe.  Hasbro's making it really easy to give up being a completist if this is indeed the figure pack-in they're planning.  Unless it had the R5 unit and that R5 was one HELL of a figure, then I'd be thoroughly disappointed by that pilot hack job.

Luke's short...  Luke's Scronny...  His body doesn't match the rather tall and larger build of Red Leader (Hell, check out the shots of them together in the SE footage that was put into ANH).  So the body's all wrong...  And again, any pilot with a molded on helmet at this point is just wrong.  I mean, they have Porkins' helmet sculpt to use...  They have Wedge's helmet sculpt to use...  They have Cinema Scene Wedge's body sculpt to use...

Make a friggin' head for him and be civil to the people who wanted a Red leader figure.  It'd be odd that Gold Leader got a brand spankin' new figure and Red didn't since Red even had a moment of interaction with Luke outside of his ship.  

That sure looks very prototype to me though.  The coloring of it is very reminiscent of a test shot sample that hadn't been hand painted yet.  Getting such vibrant color from resin casts isn't a small task either really, and I speak from experience.  I somehow have a sinking feeling that is indeed the upcoming Red Leader figure.  :(
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Jeff on December 16, 2003, 04:27 PM
Ugh.

A Y-Wing Pilot Head on PotJ X-Wing Luke?

Cheap!

At least they could have used the Biggs Body or just given us the Dang Y-Wing Pilot with a new helm deco!  That would still suck, but it's better than this crap.

*sigh*

Always a chance (however slm) that it may change before release...

Jeff
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us

Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Boba Binks on December 16, 2003, 09:50 PM
It is funny. I was talking to a buddy of mine just the other day about this item. I said I bet Hasbro would do something like take an X-Wing Luke and put on the Y-Wing pilot head or something. If this image is true... man.

I hope at least this X-Wing comes with an R5-unit.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Angry Ewok on December 16, 2003, 10:01 PM
And to think I expected a brand new figure and a brand new R5 to go with it. I won't be buying this, this is pathetic.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Darth Broem on December 17, 2003, 10:57 AM
Yep, I was not sure if I'd get this set to begin with.  I thought I might if a new astromech was included.  That would probably do it for me.  But it does not sound like that will be included.  If this is the prototype it's disapointing to say the least.  Oh well, more for everyone else.  Nice exclusive.

Uh... isn't that just Wedge?

If that's the case and it is supposed to be Red Leader from RotJ, and it is Wedge, then they should have just given us the Pilot Scene Wedge instead of the kit-bashed moster we're gonna get.

Hmmm... I still think it's supposed to be from ANH though.

What a thoroughly disinteresting piece.

I gotta blow that pic up to see just what in the fudge is doing in the astromech's socket though.  Weird stuff.

The pilot really bites though...  I do believe that, unless I see it on clearance, i'm gonna pass.  With all the helmet molds, it wouldn't have pained Hasbro to actually make a new head and use the Wedge body to make a decent pack-in figure.  
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us

Why couldn't they have just used one of the RFT heads and glued a redeco'ed helmet on THAT. That's just sad.
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: Scott on January 29, 2004, 10:53 PM
Why I would buy this, if they have a R5 unit, I'd be all over it, especially at $30, the figure bugs me but I'e bought more (Y-Wing) for less (no astromech and higher price)
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us

Ugh, I thought the paper droid thing in the droid socket was a mockup for an eventual figure. I guess it's a "place your droid here" sign.

I would have rather had a cool droid repaint and a paper pilot instead of the poo they put in there.  ::)

Post by: Playgirl on February 13, 2004, 08:42 PM
it looks as if they're trying to play fair or something. since the dagobah xwing came with r2, they're making this come with a pilot.  like a trade off or something. my question is: is they're even an r5 toy out there????
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: SilverZ on February 13, 2004, 09:48 PM
Even though its more or less based on the droid in the ride, the Star Tours R5 droid is pretty ideal for a redeco. Certainly would be better than a head popped on a scrawny Luke body, me thinks.  :)

How different is Red Leader's X-wing from Wedge's X-Wing? Because as of now, Wedge aint got no ride!
Title: Re: RED LEADER COMING TO TOY'R Us
Post by: SilverZ on March 5, 2004, 05:09 PM
It should be an easy custom job. You'd just need to add the correct designation stripes (Red-5 has 5 stripes, etc) to the wings and the correct pattern to the horizontal "racing" stripe on the hull - either broken (as on Luke's) or solid. Then there's the matter of a droid for the droid socket.

It's easy to apply custom stickers/decals to make the appropriate ships. Somewhere I have a large .psd of the sticker sheet from the PFX Xwing that I changed several times for Biggs and Wedge ships. I just customized the stickers and printed them on a solid adhesive-backed paper, cut, and applied. Instant ride for Wedge.

I'd love to hear how the ship compares to the PFX and Dagobah versions...  :)

I couldn't have said it any better myself.  Red Leader's head is just plain laughable.  If they would have made him along the lines of "Gold Leader" Dutch Vander and include or release a Red Leader specific droid than here's my thirty bucks! :)  I'll guess I will just wait until the OTC X-Wing.

If they nixed the crappy kit-bashed pilot, dropped the price slightly (say $20-25), and released a wave of Pilots with astromech pack-ins at the same time, this would be so much more appealling!

That said, I'm still getting at least one of these for Wedge. Anyone have a picture of his astromech?

They're now $20 at Amazon.com. Have been for a few weeks. Just thought I'd share the info.

A couple?  These are stacked about 10 high on the top of the shelves, never mind the six on the display.  Clearance?  What clearance?

I made the mistake of leaving my Red Leader X-Wing on display in an area that receives sunlight in the morning. The left side stickers are all faded. :P
