Title: Animated Wave 3 - Anakin/Grievous/ARC
Post by: Snively Bandar on February 27, 2004, 05:48 AM
So with the Clone Wars mini series making a come back next month, for the next (and last?) 10 episodes, do you think there will be any more animated figures to go along with it, to support it's release?  With a number of new characters that they're likely to introduce in the second half, I think we'll see more of these figures, if but only one wave this time (hopefully two though).

What do you think?  More on the way?  I haven't followed the teases on the next round, but I'm sure others have a clue as to what else is on tap.  So with that in mind, what figures do you think they could use in Series 3 of the animated figure line?  The only one that pops into my mind at the moment is that character that was just announced at the official site - the half alien half droid Jedi killer thing.  I suppose a Padme would be a solid and obvious choice as well.  Which others though?

I'm not so sure that we'll see any more of this Animated line, but I personally kind of hope that we could see at least one more wave.  I'm not sure how everyone else feels about them, but I kind of like this little "sub-set".  I received the three figures I was missing yesterday from Matt (JediMAC), and I really like the lineup all together.  Personally, I would like to see R2 and 3PO included if they did one more wave, along with the "new" bad guy (not sure if I can post his name here or not, due to spoilers).  I suppose Padme would be another candidate, or maybe Kit Fisto.

Yea, we could still see some "non" animated too! For the regular Clone Wars line, what about Padme, 3PO, R2, Darth Sidious, that is a whole line right there, they could also do those in animated then through in, Kit Fisto and Saesee Tiin to be animated too.  Lets not forget those kick ass - Female Jedi - Shaak Ti, Luminara Unduli, Barriss Offee. They could do so much!

I saw an animated Padme maquette is some site's Toy Fair coverage. I'd love to have a figure of it.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: JediMAC on March 15, 2004, 01:09 PM
Well, based on what we've NOT seen, and NOT heard, it's not looking good for another wave or two of the animated figures.  Bummer.  I would've like to see Kit, Padme, the Droids, Obi-Wan in armor, ARC Trooper, and any other major players from the second half of the series that's coming up soon.

I'm frankly a little surprised to see that there might not be any further toy tie-ins for the second half of the series - be it animated or regular Clone Wars figures.  Oh well.  They all clogged the pegs too much as it was.

I wonder if/when the prior animated figures are going to hit clearance at Target.  They're definitely hanging in mass abundance everywhere now.   :-\

maybe they are waiting to see what the reaction is to the second half of this cartoon, or maybe even the dvd sales? maybe they are holding back, so that when the cartoon becomes a regular, weekly half-hour series they can put out an entire line of new figures  ;D

That was Gentle Giant offering that.  They also had an armored Obi-Wan Kenobi.

I am not to sure anymore if Hasbro is going to make these anymore, Galactic Hunter said something about they are already workin on EPIII figures, so I think we already know what we are getting for the rest of 2004, and that is the OT.  And then next year EPIII figures, so.... Time will tell, I hope!

Yakface.com had a blurb saying there might be Wave 3 and 4 in the works...their tip came from a Yak Alumnus (Jimmy?)
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Mainland05 on March 22, 2004, 11:01 AM
This would be exciting.  I could name a ton of characters from the Clone Wars, who could be in Wave 3 and 4.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Ben on March 28, 2004, 04:48 PM
I'd like to have an Obi-Wan in armor. That would really be sweet.

They should just stick these animated figures in the regular line. Forget exclusivity. Since Hasbro put out the McQuarrie Trooper in the regular line, why not?
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Darby on March 28, 2004, 11:14 PM
I think Obi in Armor and the Snow Padme are musts.  I suppose folks will want toon Grievous too, though he doesn't do it for me.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Durge on March 29, 2004, 03:16 AM
Wave 3
-Padme
-3PO
-R2
-Kit Fisto


Wave 4
-Obi-Wan Armor
-Arc Trooper
-Grievous
-Battle Droid


That would make the line perfect. :)
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Mainland05 on March 29, 2004, 10:57 AM
Here is the wave's I made up, I threw a little more in there, cause probably with the DVD release of the Clone Wars, it would be great to have figures, released for that too, so here is my list:

Wave 3
3x C-3PO
3x R2-D2
3x ARC Trooper
3x Battle Droid

Wave 4
3x Padme Amidala
3x Obi-Wan Kenobi (Trooper Armor)
3x Kit Fisto
3x Saesee Tiin

Wave 5
3x Shaak Ti
3x Aayla Secura
3x Luminara Unduli
3x Barriss Offee

Wave 6
4x Darth Sidious
4x Palpatine
4x General Grievous

Now these would be great! ;)
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?

I just have to have the future waves if they are made! The characters in the show are just to  8)   ;D
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: evenflow on April 3, 2004, 07:51 PM
I would love to see some more animated figures, Padme, Grevious, Kit Fisto, C-3PO & R2-D2 2-pack
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: JediKnight87 on April 6, 2004, 11:38 PM
I don't think they'll come out with anymore. I would love to see those figures come out but knowing Hasbro...  :-\
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: JediMAC on April 8, 2004, 04:24 AM
Yeah, not looking good for the future of these animated CW figures...   :-\  If they had any planned for the second series of cartoons we've been watching the past couple weeks, we would've already seen them by now, or at the very least, we would've seen prototypes or early samples up on eBay.

I'd say the only chance we have of seeing more figures from this line is if the contract for the CW cartoon winds up getting extended, as has been rumored of late.  If that happens, there might be a chance of getting a few more of these missing figures.  Either that, or some talented customizers out there are gonna be getting pretty rich!   ;)
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Scott on May 4, 2004, 11:23 AM
TPU is reporting Wave 3 may indeed be in the works and will include Grievous...hmmm, hard to see why with the pegs chock full of pegwarmers...Stay Tuned!
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: SilverZ on May 4, 2004, 12:58 PM
Well I'll be waiting for them. I like 'em. My bets are on it being Grievous, 3P0, Padme, and R2.

I could see these being released with the inevitable CW DVD.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: JediMAC on May 4, 2004, 02:38 PM
So according to TPU (http://books.dreambook.com/tpu/probenews.html), we're looking at (supposedly) General Grievous for sure, plus three more from the following list of 9.  Here's what I'm hoping to see, according to their list:

That's probably too much in the way of Clonetroopers though, and I suppose the Obi Clone would be an easy custom (though far too staticly posed).  Here's the remainder of their list, and the order I'd want to possibly get them in, if any of them wind up in the Final 3 here:

It would be cool to get one more wave of all Jedi though, to include the three above, and maybe an Aayla or Barriss.  But with Series 3 supposedly coming now, I guess anything is possible...   8)

But Target definitely needs to run a massive clearance sale to rid themselves of the remaining animated figures still on the pegs - especially the damned Dooku and Durge ones!  Every Target around here has about 20 of each of those...   ::)
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Darby on May 4, 2004, 03:08 PM
TPU seemed to suggest that Padme was coming, but not the droids.  I would say then that Obi Wan in Armor is a definite lock, but beyond that, I'm not sure.  

I really look forward to these.

What, $6.99 isn't floating your boat for an old man action figure?  ;)

All the others, though they sit because of that price, do seem to eventually sell. Drop those sitting on the pegs now in a few months time and we're good to go.

I don't want droids either, but I'm putting my money on the Hasbro 'core characters sell' thing that they have. I'd be stoked to have Obi in Clone Armor. I hope that pans out.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?

I could see all those Jedi being released in animated style. 8)

I'd love a Snow Bunny Padme, I sort of wish these would happen just for that reason alone

I actually love these animated figures and picked them all up, whcih is funny cause I passed on the regular Clone Wars figures. I wish there were 2 more waves.

What is the rumored release date for the third wave?
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Morgbug on July 23, 2004, 05:14 PM
So this the best place then for the new information, thus far reported quickly by GH?  

General Grievous
Anakin Skywalker
ARC trooper

Pics of the first two, but what of the ARC trooper?  Red, blue, or another color?  Presumably stylized for the animated fit, but what else?  

And where's Obi in armor? :-\
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: DSJ™ on July 23, 2004, 05:34 PM
General Grievous & Anakin Skywalker look good so far. Sure would like to know too what color ARC Trooper we are getting.  :-\

You would think there would be more figures like the Obi in armor that you mentioned Brent. Maybe, just maybe this is a little taste with more to come! Snow Bunny Padme!  :-\
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: jadesfire on July 23, 2004, 08:57 PM
I am excited about Anakin and I guess I'll take Grievous and the trooper but I want my Obi-wan in armor!! Come on Hasbro....please...pretty please..I'll buy two :).

I also am thinking Bariss, Padme and Luminara would make great figures but I'll go with the "boy" ones for now and hope they make a second set.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Darby on July 23, 2004, 11:55 PM
I'm filled with sadness.  No Snow Bunny Padme.  No Armored Obi.  Sigh.   :(

There's always hope, I suppose, but then I've been waiting for an orange handmaiden Padme since May 1999, and thought I had one finally today, only to discover she's someone else.  

It's like Wedge all over again.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Brian on July 26, 2004, 02:05 PM
I'm kind of glad to hear there are more of these on the way too.  The Anakin and Grievous both look really good, and an ARC Trooper would be sweet to have as well.  I'm kind of hoping they have at least another series, with figures such as Obi Wan in Clone Armor, Snow Bunny Padme, and the Droids included.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Nicklab on July 26, 2004, 02:54 PM
Obi-Wan in armor is one that they've got to do!  I'd also like to see an IG Lancer Droid and Padme in her Ilum outfit.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Scott on July 26, 2004, 04:12 PM
Yeah a new Anakin is sort of dumb but if they do make a fourth wave, R2, 3PO, Snow Bunny Padme and Obi-Wan in Armor would be nice...and then whatever they have in store for the next Season
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: SilverZ on July 27, 2004, 01:54 AM
That's what gets me about them announcing this wave... they're all from the now long-gone seasons, and there's nothing from the new one, which I'm assuming they don't have time to actually sculpt, considering how late the show was greenlit. There better be a another set coming to include new characters and give me my frickin' Padme.  >:(

Has everyone seen the new picture of the Red ARC Captian Animated figure int he insider yet?

More pre-posed-ness in appearance, but a good sculpt.  These figures suck for articulation, but the likenesses are dead on...

I'll probably end up grabbing 1 set to go with the other 8 on my shelf.

Post by: Morgbug on September 22, 2004, 03:04 PM
Jeff, since I won't see an Insider for about another six weeks if you have it now ::) can you please tell me if this is the same red ARC as previously released?  I suspect since this is the animated thread it is not the case as the previous red ARC was the regular not animated line, but would like to check anyway.

Post by: Jesse James on September 22, 2004, 03:33 PM
Everyone's listing him as a Captain...  I've always disagreed with that because, well, in the toon Obi calls him Sergeant directly.  Dunno why EU's mixed up there, but they are... 

I like Sergeant myself...  There's too many red's to all have been Captains in the film.

And on that note, carry on the non EU-debate conversation that was going on anyway.

So is it then an animated figure?  I can't quite tell, it looks like it, but not sure. 

Thanks for the lift link.

Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Jesse James on September 23, 2004, 01:12 AM
The ARC's definitely animated...  I wish they'd gone al out with the non-animated one like this.  The holsters rock I think.  That's a figure I'd take a SA version of...

Unfortunately, the CW line appears to be all animated, which while they're neat, they're not my cup of tea.  I like the classic looking figures though, and think it was a great EU line.  Even little Frito Bandito Yoda.

Oh reeeaaaalllllyyyyy...???

Alright hotshot, let's hear 'em!  MFL and R5 come to mind, along with maybe a few "EU" Star Tours droids, but that's about it.  Frito Bandito still sucks ass more than all of them though, I say!   :-*

Remember, we're talking the regular CW line here, not the animated one...
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Jesse James on September 29, 2004, 12:00 AM
POTF2 Lobot
Monkey Face Leia
He-Man Luke
Saga Hoth Rebel Soldier
Freeze Chamber Pack-in Guard
R5-D4
Saga Qui-Gon Jinn
Saga Endor Han (first one)
Boss Nass (E1)
Force Flipping Dooku
Force Flipping Anakin
Force Flipping Obi-Wan
He-Man Stormtrooper
He-Man Han
Disco He-Man Lando
He-Man Luke Dagobah
He-Man Han Carbonite
Saga TRD Luke

The list goes on...

At least Yoda's "new", unique...  Sorta "plain" looking especially without the poncho.

EU figures rock if you ask me.  They can be the future of the line if they're created properly.  However, I don't drool at the site of the basic CW line overall...  It did produce great figures like Deluxe Durge, SA Clone, Assajj Ventriss, Pilot Sae Sae Tinn, Swimming Kit Fisto, etc...  Obi's not bad either.

Anakin and Yoda are "eh", and I'd actually place Anakin as worse than Yoda if it were me...  But that's my opinion.

And basically you guys suck too...  There's always that factor.

Why mix old and new figures in the same assortment? That makes absolutely no sense. The old figures are probably going to sit and clog shelves while the new ones fly out. Leave it to Hasbro to do something like this. What's next? Maybe they will ship cases of mixed Episode 2/Episode 3 Preview figures  ::)

The mentality i'm sure is that being exclusives before not everyone had the opportunity to pick them off shelves.  I myself relied on Matt because the closest Target is over an hour from my house.  Also, any word if the cards will change?

Post by: JediMAC on November 23, 2004, 08:51 PM
Not exactly the best mix of new figures there, IMO.  Don't care much for the Grievous character, though the figure looks interesting enough.  Would've chose a hundred different characters over another Anakin figure already, but I guess they're figuring that's a pivotal scene in the series so it's necessary.  The Red ARC Troopers cool, of course.  And I believe Hasbro said at Comic Con that they'd be making him in a Blue color as well.

I guess it'll be cool to get some of the previous Clones in the multi flavors now too.  Spice things up just a bit.  And since they're no longer Target exclusives, they should be easy enough to eventually track down (hopefully).

I'm guessing the re-release of the prior figures is just so the other retailers who are just hopping into this line can have the opportunity to sell some of the old ones too (not they they likely will to much extent).

Would be nice to see the line push forward a bit more too, into some of the other Jedi characters, along with Clone Obi, Padme and the Droids.  Plenty still left to tackle from the first couple "seasons", and they haven't even delved into "season 3" yet.  Not a bad line though, despite my initial trepidation towards it...

Post by: DoctorPadawan on November 24, 2004, 08:56 AM
Personally, I would have loved it if they had actually gone ahead and done two waves of the new figures, starting around January of 2005, similar to how they did the initial waves.

WAVE THREE: JANUARY 2005
2 x Obi-Wan in Clone Armor
2 x Snow Bunny Padme
2 x Kit Fisto (Mon Calamari)
2 x Threepio and R2 (two pack, since R2 would likely be little more than a PVC)

WAVE FOUR: MARCH 2005
2 x ARC Trooper (one blue, one red)
2 x Anakin (Yavin IV Duel)
2 x General Grevious
2 x Luminara Unduli

And you could probably go even further.  Off the top of my head, that would still leave Barriss Offee, Ki Adi Mundi, Shaak Ti, Darth Sidious, Chancellor Palpatine (seperate for the purposes of the list), Battle Droids, and Super Battle Droids among the more "active" characters on the series that could be made into figures.  This doesn't even begin to take into account some of the vehicles that could be made.  Unfortunately, since it's more of a "niche" line, this stuff will probably never come to pass and these last three original figures (plus the Clone repaints) will be all we'll ever get, but it's still fun to dream. :)

I really wish we were getting at least one more wave with Padme, C-3PO, R2-D2, and Kit Fisto.

I really could have done without another Anakin or the multicolor Clone Troopers.

Also would of been nice to see one deluxe or beast.  Maybe a Yoda with whatever he was riding in EP1?  Or a lancing Black IG-88 on bike.  Of course they would end up being no more than statues.

Post by: Brian on December 2, 2004, 11:49 AM
I'm kind of glad to see this line continue, I always thought it was a fun little "sub-line" to collect.  I too would have liked a little bit different character selection (or a few more), because it would be really nice to see many of the figures mentioned above (Obi-Wan in armor, Snow Bunny Padme, R2/3PO, Jedi, Palpy, etc.).  I am glad to see the multi-colored clones, as well as the ARC Trooper(s) - which were really cool in the series.  I wonder if we'll see anything beyond this next wave?  I haven't heard/read/seen anything that would point to that though.  Oh well, not like we won't have enough product out there next year the way it is, I need to start saving up now :).

For those of you who like using the DPCI trick at Target:

2005 Clone Wars Animated Figure Assortments ($6.99 each)
Assortment #: 85661
DPCI #: 087-06-1282

Now we can all keep tabs on when Target gets in their first batches of Clone Wars wave 3 figures!

Anyone know if the Clone Trooper is being repacked in the White Version besides the red, blue and yellow?  Also, is the Arc Trooper going to come in 2 colors?

Damn, yeah I noticed this today when I saw Mace (the only CW card at Walmart). If it was just the "Season 3 Now On TV" burst on the bubble I could probably pass it off as no big deal, but flipping the card over to see that the new figures are pictured at the bottom, these repacks are a bonafide recard, so I'm going to have to get all of them... again.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Jim on December 24, 2004, 08:39 AM
Somethng to consider on the repacks.  The packaging is different in two aspects.  First , the back of the cards show the new figs.  The fronts are the same as the first issues.  Only difference is that a clear sticker showing Season 3 is on the bubble. 

Anyone know how the colored clones are shipping?  Ratios?  Also trying to determine if the white clone is also being repacked since it is on the back of the cards ???
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: SilverZ on December 24, 2004, 04:26 PM
I haven't heard of the white clones showing anywhere as of yet.  The standard clones are probably going to be a pain in the ass, since according to the EE case breakdown, they are 2 per case.:

Quote
2x Grievous, 2x Anakin Skywalker, 2x Arc Trooper, 1x Obi-Wan Kenobi, 1x Durge, 1x Asajj Ventress, 2x Clone Trooper (colors may vary), 1x Mace Windu

Scouring for 1 opener/1 carded of all the colors is going to be rough. Meh.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: DoctorPadawan on December 25, 2004, 08:53 AM
I was lucky enough to walk into the local WM within minutes of them actually stocking the CW figures.   They had apparently stocked two cases worth of the figures, and the case assortment seemed to be the same one that you listed, Tydirium.  I can confirm that in this case, there were no white Clones, and the only color variants were the yellow and blue (no red).

I would assume (and you know what that does) that the red and (if they are going to rerelease it) white clones will be in another case assortment.  I don't care for this personally, since it means there will be one "new" figure in a case full of stuff that has already been released, thus making it more difficult to find, but if they actually do a blue ARC and pack them both at more than one per case, it could be a bit easier.

The more I've thought about it, the more I am baffled by the rationale of packing Durge (who, technically, "died" in Season 1) in this new assortment, as opposed to Yoda, who would probably (likely) sell a whole lot more than Durge.  I'm not all that thrilled with the repacks anyway (although I understand that not everyone lives close to a Target), but the choice of Durge kind of confuses me.

And now, more than ever, I really wish they would continue this subline.  I really enjoy the cartoons and I love the figures (all of them, even Durge) and I would be thrilled if they kept the line going, especially with the main character designs seemingly "updated" for Season 3.  Oh, Snow Bunny Padme and Clone Armor Obi-Wan, wherefore art thou?  :)

Oh, and even though this has nothing to do with the toys, could someone tell me where in the continuity the CW animated series falls?  I casually read the Republic comic every now and again, and if there is a whole subplot of Obi-Wan going after Ventress when she's already been killed by Anakin, I'm sure you can tell where I'm a bit confused.

Haven't found these around here yet, going to try a bigger toy run this weekend to see if they are out anywhere.  Really looking forward to that ARC Trooper, and the others are nice as well.  Although I know not everyone is a huge fan of these, I kind of like the line.  I wouldn't necessarily want it to get huge, but I wouldn't mind another wave (Snow Bunny Padme, Clone Armor Obi, the Droids, maybe another Jedi or two).  Doesn't sound as if it is going any further though, unfortunately.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Jeff on January 12, 2005, 11:03 AM

No, there is no green one.

The Animated Clone Troopers in Wave 3 come in Red, Blue, and Yellow.

The tricky part is that they are only packed at 2x per case, so on one case will contain all 3 colors of the clones.

From what I've read so far, it seems like the Red Clone is more common, but that may be due to people confusing the ARC Trooper for a "Red Clone" and not knowing what they are talking about.

Wish I could say I've had better luck finding these things. They've been hitting pretty wide out here, but I'm always a bit too late to the store. I see nothing but leftovers from the first waves, with the exception of one ARC Trooper and new Anakin, which a Target employee pulled from the back room for me.

They are even showing up at KB Toys now. I found like 3-4 each of -- again --- the rehashed ones this afternoon.

Post by: jadesfire on January 15, 2005, 07:15 AM
I'm curious as to what everyone is paying for these.  I know I paid more for the first wave at Target ($6.99) and now, at Walmart at least, they are $5.55.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: JediMAC on January 15, 2005, 07:44 AM
Beth, around here they're $5.50 at WM, $5.99 at TRU, and $6.99 at Target and K-mart.  I guess those first two prices ain't too bad, considering they were all $6.99 apiece at Target the last time 'round.

Still have only found the Anakin (x2) and Grievous so far, along with the recards. 
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: DoctorPadawan on January 16, 2005, 09:36 AM
I actually found the Red Clone the day before yesterday at a local SWM.  They had apparently just "completed" their reset of the action figure aisle and I found the remnants of a case of the CW figures.  It was the only Clone left so I don't know what other color shipped in the case with it.  I saw a Yellow Clone and Mace at a K-Mart nearby, so they are apparently showing up there as well.

Strangely enough, the figures that I don't see all that often from this assortment hanging around are Durge and Ventress.  I have not seen either of them since the day I got my Wave 3 back in December, and why that is, I have no idea.  You'd think that people would be more interested in the Clones and/or Grievous but apparently EU creations are more interesting than actual film stuff to some people.
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Jim on January 16, 2005, 02:38 PM
I have had no problem finding these things around here surprisingly.  The only fig that I have not seen more than once is the yellow clone.  On a side note, I noticed that K-Mart did a reset and Basic EP3 figs (maybe the preview?) are marked at $7.99 :P

I've yet to see a single clone around here and they're packed 1 per case in the latest all-wave 3 ratio. Thanks for shipping a figure with 3 paint variants at that ratio, Hasbro. You jackasses.

And we haven't even seen what's new that might pop up in the next season. They need to do another set when the upcoming season makes its way to DVD, me thinks. The Obi-Wan Clone Armor is pretty much the coolest thing from the whole cartoon, so to not make it as a figure is just plain stupid.

The anakin is the one that should have been in the first wave instead of the  crappy one that we got.
Grevious in my opinion is the stand out figure, looks like it was lifted straight from the toon,
The arc trooper is good too, hell it's just a really good wave, i'll post some photo's soon.

Decided to stop in at TRU on a whim this past weekend, to see if they had any of the animated figures.  Luckily, they had the one I was really looking for....the ARC Trooper, and that was the only animated figure they had at all, just laying on the shelf on top of some wookiee water soakers.  Plus, glad I held off from ordering the $7.99 one from Amazon, since it was only $5.99 here.  Now if I can just happen across some of those colored clones at retail here, I'll be all set.  If not, well at least I got all the "new sculpted" figures.  I'd still like to see another wave or two from this line though :).

If anyone is in a gambling mood, Kaybee.com has the Animated Clone in stock, but doesn't list which version it is. They're a steep 7.99, but I'm losing faith in finding these locally.

I saw that too, thanks for the link Tydirium.  I haven't seen any of the clones locally either, and actually these seem to be drying up overall in our area.  I have been able to find all of the "new" figures (non repaints/re-releases), but otherwise all I have seen anymore is a handful of the re-released figures at Target (1 each of Mace, Durge, Asaaj).  Wal-Mart hasn't gotten these yet, maybe they won't...their pegs have been bare since they sold out of their preview figures last week.

Sunnofa...

Major accomplishment there. I'm still spinning at the logic of shipping an army builder at 1 per case, with 3 different variants. That's about as low as they've ever stooped.

I see that my KB order shipped, and I'm hoping whoever filled the order had the common sense to send all three colors, though I know that's not realistic.


EDIT: So I ended up with 2 red and 1 blue from them. Not too bad, only 1 more to go.

I've heard the 1 per case thing numerous times too, but does that mean one of each color per case, or just one random Clone per case?  There's definitely not two of each color in each case, I know that much.  Maybe just 2 random ones?  I dunno.

Whatever it is, I've still seen a whopping total of ONE colored Clone ever.  Still need another set of each though, if anyone comes across 'em!   ;)
Title: Re: Animated Wave 3 (and beyond)?
Post by: Jeff on February 18, 2005, 02:19 PM
I thought they were 2 per case?

Case Version 1, shipped in Dec and Jan:
2x ARC Trooper
2x Anakin Skywalker
2x Gen. Greivous
2x Clone Trooper (color varies)
1x Mace Windu
1x Durge
1x Asajj Ventress
1x Obi-Wan Kenobi

Case Version #2, the one that is currently shipping:
4x Gen. Greivous
4x ARC Trooper
3x Anakin Skywalker
1x Clone Trooper (color varies)

Most places that are still getting the Animated figures seem to be getting the newer version 2 case (you can see that EE revised their case listing on Jan 6th).  So, it started shipping at 2x per case, but it is currently only shipping at 1x per case.

Scored a yellow Clone at Sam Goody today, $6.

They had a few ARCs and a blue Clone, too, neither of which I've seen in a while.

Dale, I have an ARC here if you want him.  He was $6.99 US, but that makes him about even with what we pay up here.  LMK.

Thanks Brent and Kevin. I just got off the phone with Bob, you know (the old fart).  ;D

He was at one of our TRU's and they just put of some Clone figs and there were ARC's. Bob was very kind to grab me one so I'm all set.  8)

Hokey dokey.  I'm still trying to figure out why I bought it.  MikeyD sent me one already and I didn't want a carded set of these, nor did I want to army build.
