LEGO / Re: Recent Acquisitions
« on: April 30, 2013, 08:31 AM »
I wonder if this would be a good time to get the new giant Cinema set? I am not currently a VIP member, so I wonder if I would get the perks with my first purchase. Anyone know, perchance?

Finally lucked out with Amazon and got Archangel for 19.99.

Thanks very much for mentioning this; I was able to get in on this deal as well. Much appreciated!

Yoda is my first venture into this line, and once he arrives I'll see about getting additional ones. I find many of the figures appealing, but my display space seems to be shrinking and shrinking.

Will the AT-AT Driver be in full battle gear, or will he be in street clothes?

6" Figures / Re: 6 Inch Figures?
« on: January 30, 2013, 02:57 PM »
I rarely pick up any figures any more, but I am looking forward to this line. My display room is limited and I am hoping the six inch figures will look a little more display-worthy, for lack of a better term.

Besides Maul and potentially some others, I'll be focusing mainly on the characters from the original trilogy.

Love the fact that they are getting hammered on FB. I hope their retailers/distributers are also passing along their displeasure.

Gentle Giant / General Veers Mini-Bust Update
« on: January 22, 2013, 09:19 AM »
Just got an email from BBTS stating that Veers will now be in his Imperial dress uniform instead of his AT-AT combat gear. He looked great in the combat gear, so I ended up cancelling my preorder. Very disappointed, unfortunately.

Count me in for a Dooku in his jammies.  :o

Have they announced any new additions to this line recently? I preordered Yoda as soon as he was announced, which will be my first figure from this line.

Thanks in advance!

I think the only one to come after that was Rocket Firing Fett.  You can view all of the pre-orders on their webpage.

Perfect! Thanks for the help.

I really liked it and I am going to give Good Vibes a shot as well.

Collect All 92! / Re: Bossk
« on: October 18, 2010, 12:08 PM »
Count me in for some Bossk love, too!  He and IG-88 are still my favorite hunters, although I Bossk wins hands-down from a fleshed-out backstory perspective.  Unless there is more out there about IG-88 that I am not aware of, which is quite possible.

I really need to track down the modern definitive examples of these guys while they are still relatively easy to obtain...

Trandoshans FTW!   ;D

Star Wars Universe / Re: 'Star Wars' in 3-D?
« on: September 30, 2010, 02:57 PM »
I wouldn't mind seeing 3-6 on the big screen again, but I am only going to 1&2 if my son drags me there.  Which he is very likely to do.

By the time they get to ANH, Greedo probably won't even be packing.   >:D

Shadows of the Dark Side '10-'11 / Re: Jabba's Throne w/Oola
« on: September 30, 2010, 02:54 PM »
This shows up as "Availabilty Unknown" for my local stores and the 7 other stores around here.  Nuts. 

I'm not going to pull the trigger on this until I see it in person, but it looks like that decision is being made for me.  HA!  Nevertheless, my son and I are going to hit the stores on Saturday before heading to a birthday lunch.

Good luck out there!

12" Figures / Re: 12" IG-88? Oh my.
« on: September 22, 2010, 01:02 PM »
Ouch.  It may still be doable, depending on when it comes out.  Just don't tell the wife.   >:D
