The Legacy Collection / Re: 2008 Evolutions Sets
« on: August 12, 2008, 03:36 PM »
I received the Rebel Pilots II set from HTS today.  I think that the Keyan Farlander figure might be one of my favorites of the year.  Just something nice about seeing that red flight suit again.  Is this it for the Evolutions sets until Spring now?  I didn't think we had heard of anything else (other than the Imperial Pilots Set variants coming next year).

Isnt there supposed to be a c3po set aswell?

On the side note I have still yet to see rebel v2 however my sister left for Disney world today and she said she will try to find it for me there :)

Woot! TRU Can is having a sale on their figures until The 16th. $5.97 for all basic figures (legends,legacy and clone). I am just happy I kept my receipt cause I just called and they said they will do a price adjust without the product for me today :) Now I just hope I can find the rebel V2 set that was reported being spotted at that TRU.

On another note I am very surprised to see that the AT-Te is selling at $5 less than in the states at WM yet it is being sold for $130 at zellers. Price for this years items are so messed up. TRU vehicles go for $30. Yet at WM they are $27 but at sears (the place that never gets SW stuff anymore unless its the holiday season) is selling them for $25, although I have only seen the clone helmets at sears anyways.

Other Toy Lines / Re: 2008: What Are You Collecting?
« on: August 9, 2008, 10:48 AM »
Star wars- Due to space and money and am no longer going to collect vehicles and comic packs. Vehicles take up way to much room. In terms of the comic packs there are just to many characters I dont know featured in them and in most cases I only want one figure from the set. So for now on I am sticking to just basic figures and evolution sets(only if they interest me ie. pilot sets). I am also going to cut my squad building down to save up on some cash.

Mobile Suits in Action!! - This is a "new" line I am trying to get into. Last year I picked one up from a local comic shop and the figure was just amazing. This summer I finally got around to watching both Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny series and now I want to get a few more of the figures for display purposes. The only problem is that this is an old line and its only sold in japan so I have to depend on comic shops to get the figures I need. The bigger problem with that is those shops also jack up the price on the main characters. I am not going to go all out with this line but there are just a few that I want at the moment.

DragonBall Z- I just want to finish off the DVD season sets.

August so far= 209.70

Was finally able to pick up 2 of the TAC figures I needed at a local comic shop. While going to another I was able to find the all so rare (anywhere besides Japan that is) Gundam figures. I only bought the LaGOWE because it was A. Cheap and B. the only one from the Gundam Seed series. I wanted to buy the Destiny mobile suit but that one was $16.99. Its a great series but they are very hard to get and very expensive for the main characters mobile suits. I might pick up the Destiny the next time I go. Besides they have been at that shop for a year now. When I went last year they had 3 of these Gundam figures and since then I have picked up to of them. Only one left to go lol.


edit august22****picked up a ton of figures in Buffalo at a way cheaper price. heck I was surprised to find wave 3. only thing that sucks is now after I find the quad cannon clone it will be even longer till something new arrives up here :-\
next stop Fan Expo....it will be expensive for sure.

edit august 24*** Expo actually was not to expensive but it was a ton of fun.

I just love how the DESERT STORM deleted scene figures are pretty clean. You would think they should have some weathering on them to show they are in a storm. That is just about my only problem with this wave though. chewie is still my favourite from the wave BUT I would have prefered at least some sign of weathering.

« on: August 1, 2008, 12:13 PM »
anyone catch Lucius Fox's comment regarding the new batsuit? something along the lines of how it can handle a cat? was that foreshadowing or a stupid joke?

in any case, it seems like the whole Selina Kyle thing is wide open for the next movie. i'd be glad to see that.

oh, and it was a good movie.

The real question is did anyone catch what the joker said to the bank manager after putting a smoke grenade into his mouth? something along the lines of "what doesnt kill you only makes you stranger" Then take into consideration that the manager was played by a fairly famous actor (william fichtner) who hides behind a gun and gets shot in the leg which might mean he would require a cane to help him walk when he heals. Only hint they didnt give us was a riddle ;)

I really gotta cut back on my spending.
But with wave 2 of legacy expected out soon along with the other two evo packs and animated wave 2 I think that will be hard. Not to mention DragonBall z season 6 coming out next month along with DragonBall GT and The Force unleashed.

picked up Rex (foil but no sticker..gotta love Canadian packaging) and another animated clone trooper. I really love the look of the troopers. The squad size I wanted changed a lot before july 26 but after owning 4 of them now I know for a fact that I need at least 4 more, the battle scene on yahoo and the look sold it to me. :-X

All the Clone wars figures I bought were 1st day. It doesnt really matter cause I ended up opening them all but when me and my friend were at TRU we noticed 1 guy grabbing every single one he could see into his cart so we stood beside him and grabbed the ones we needed and boy did he look pissed. He ended up following us around staring at our cart. It was funny, he eventually left once he realized we were indeed buying them but the fact that he was so desperate to get all of these make us laugh. And the reason why we knew he was indeed a scalper was..well what kind of collector would buy 10+ of each figure. ie ani,obi,yoda...
