\\ Maybe they would just throw the new stuff up with the old.

I was thinking that is how Target would handle the new stuff. They did something similar last year by rolling the Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, and Avengers lines all together under the same DPCI. But then again another reset in March or April for green packaged and TVC figures might be possible, since Target seems to love resetting their aisles on a monthly basis nowadays.

It's more confusing. Jedi Temple Archives was told the waves are coming to the US and should be in stores soon.

Oh great, conflicting reports! It would make sense for Movie Heroes and Clone Wars to trickle in during the spring and early summer...  Time will tell I guess.

I think that the Stormtrooper and the 41st Clone are actually the Sandtrooper and 212th Clone since neither the stormtrooper or 41st were part of Legacy.

Hopefully this is the case. I was actually very excited for the Sand Trooper, and the 212th Clone had nice paint apps. Either way this sounds like a decent wave, and I'll probably pick up all six figures plus some extra troopers.

I'm most excited for Luke, Padme, and the Clone Sgt, though I'll probably buy the Biggs and Vader as well. I'll pass on Anakin and the Scout unless I'm really impressed in-person. I'd love to get the clone pilot, but I will only pick it up if the visor paint is cleaned up on the final release.

Looks good to me! I might actually get two or three, despite the wing markings.

Wow, looks great! I'm glad the updated the paint apps. I greatly prefer the gray to blue.

37
YES PLEASE!!!! ;D

Ah, I see why this is "vintage". The Gunship looks great though so I'll be buying!

Clone Wars figures shown at CVI will not be released in US.

 :o

Well that's some **** right there. The wave was solid, and would have been a fine release for now until summer when new stuff hits. Is it safe to assume that the remainder of Movie Heroes will also be international only?

I had noticed some Clone Wars figures in this picture with the Mission Heroes stuff:



I guess these are just misplaced Wave 1 figures, huh?

Good to know the price is $6. The only ones that are iffy at that price are the R2 droid and the especially diminutive looking Yoda. Hopefully Hasbro packs in some extra accessories, features, or articulation to improve the value of those two.

I'm a disappointed they'd relegate the realistics to 5poa line but I am not shocked.  At least a basis for better customs

I don't really care about the realistic Mace that was shown, but damnit I am pissed that the Capt. Rex won't be released!

The price? Wasn't that long ago #41 clones could had at retail for $7 or $8.

I think I read somewhere that it's a $5 SRP? Or maybe I'm just dividing the $9.99 pricepoint of the mission packs. Either way I'm expecting that these figures will retail for $5-$6, since I saw similar Iron Man and Spider-man figures for $6 at Target yesterday.

The "Ultimates" look great. I'm so glad the movie Roadblock and Flint are coming, and the CC and SS were nice surprises.

Also, the Tomahawk... can't wait to add a transport chopper to my collection. I never owned one since vintage Joes were before my time, but I always thought it was a cool looking vehicle.

I'm saying it now: I like them. No apologies.

I'm actually with you. The figures do look really good. I'm planning to get Clones and Battle Droids for use as vehicle drivers and pilots. People can bitch and moan about articulation, but the price is right and the sculpts look very good.
