Other Collectibles / Whatd'up?
« on: January 9, 2005, 08:20 PM »
Hey guys; figured since I used to spend most of my time in here, I'd just post here.
Been a while!
I'm back though. I've definitely narrowed down my collecting, mainly Master Replicas and Gentle Giant (OT only with GG). It'll be a great year for Star Wars this year, plenty of cool "Other Collectibles" swag to go around, so I expect to be 'round here more often.
Awe man, I'm feelin awe sappy now, I missed you guys!

Modern Classifieds / Star Wars Minis
« on: October 23, 2004, 04:07 PM »
Leave it to me to be scatterbrained, but I've already pretty much lost interest in the WOTC Star Wars minis, so, I'm selling them!
I have one nearly complete set, it is lacking Boba Fett and Commando on Speederbike, as well as the Dewback, which should be in the mail, on it's way to me. All cards included, mint, in Ultra Pro pages.
On top of that, I've got about 148 figures (with two Tarkins and an IG88 as the only rares), as well as three more packs of figures on the way.
The set also includes everything that was in the starter kit, and three empty boxes carefully opened from the bottom, for display's sake.
My price for everything is $250.00 w/ free shipping in the continental US (and a $15 credit towards shipping anywhere else).
PM me if you're interested.
I'm also looking for the following items:
Galactic Heroes:
All three Bounty Hunter 2 packs
Stormtrooper 2 pack
I'll give $25 in credit towards the above purchase for anyone willing to trade and pay.

« on: October 5, 2004, 08:42 PM »
If anyone can help me out, I need the three Bounty Hunter 2 packs and the promo Scout Trooper from Comic Con (and the Stormtrooper pack if its out yet)
From the WOTC minis game, I still need the Dewback, Boba Fett and Rebel on Speederbike, will pay or trade but probably dont have much to trade.

Modern Classifieds / Very rare Clone Wars sketch card for sale
« on: July 15, 2004, 06:43 PM »
Well, I didnt intend on selling this, and I really know Im going to regret it, but seeing how my employer has not paid me for about 2.5 months, I'm left with no choice. I am selling my Rodolfo Migliari sketch card from the Clone Wars cartoon series.
It is nearly identical to this card:
[image]http://starwars.keithjakubowski.net/topps/clonewars/sketches/rodolfomigliari/yoda02.jpg[/image]
Mine features a full head picture (the ear is not cut off in mine). Aside from that, they are virtually identical.
I am asking $600 for it.
A similar card recently sold for $565:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=672&item=6107866323&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW
At risk of sounding pathetic, I could really use the help guys...

Also looking for any promo cards for the new Star Wars Heritage series, any help would be appreciated!

Watto's Junk Yard / The Terminal
« on: June 19, 2004, 11:11 PM »
Just got back from The Terminal tonight! It's a fantastic movie, very well done, has a lot of comedy in it, but has a nice solid story line. Very much worth the money to see it on the bigscreen.
For those of you who dont know, The Terminal is the latest movie from Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks; loosely based on the true story of airport refugee Merhan Karimi Nessari, who was expelled from Iran in the late seventies for his protests against the shah. In August 1988 he found himself a refugee in Charles De Gaulle airport after his refugee documention was stolen in a mugging in Belgium. To date, he is still a resident of the airport, despite his now legally being able to enter into any European country. In 1999 he received an international travel card along with a French residency card. He still refuses to leave the airport, because he insists that his documents list his country of origin as Britain and not Iran. Many believe that he has become so used to life in the airport that he simply can't tear himself away.
The movie has little to do with this true story, aside from a foreign refugee living in an airport for a long period of time. It's a fantastic, and plausible story, extremely well done. The motivation behind Tom Hanks character (Viktor Navorski) turns out to be a moving idea.
For those into it, the movie is quite Spielbergian, in its most classic sense.
3 thumbs up.

Newbies / The Wookiee Welcome Wagon: New Guys Read Here
« on: June 14, 2004, 10:22 PM »
Well, I'm too damn lazy to welcome each of you individually, so, to all, welcome to Jedi Defender. Enjoy your stay, have fun, make friends, do whatever it is you do on a Star Wars board.
But, a word of advice, if you're here to bitch about other sites or member of other sites, just turn around now and don't come back. If you've been cast away from another site, or your simply emigrating over due to the degeneration of another site, do yourself and everyone else a favor and leave your dirty laundry behind. Nobody here cares about the stupid crap that can go on at other message boards.
And remember: Here at JediDefender, we love you. Unless you're an *******.
Below are a few tips from Chris

This is just a little bit about posting etiquette.
- Have sentence structure. Start with a capital letter and end with a period.
- Capitalize proper nouns. ie: someone's name, a movie title.
- Check your spelling.
- Use paragraphs. It makes it so much easier to organize ideas with and makes it much easier to read.
- Punctuation is your friend. Using a comma or semi-colon really makes all the difference in a post (if of course it is needed).

Watto's Junk Yard / Hero
« on: June 12, 2004, 09:59 PM »
No, not the Dustin Hoffman movie, the "Couching Tiger Hidden Dragon" styled film starring Jet Li (you may have seen trailers before Kill Bill Vol 2). I just picked up the official dvd today and watched it. The movie is pretty darn good. Interesting story, and only the second film I've seen where flying swordsman fits the story. If you hated/disliked Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, or the flying scenes in said movie, you probably wont care for Hero. If you enjoy a good mystical fairy tale type warrior movie, ala CTHD, I'd recommend it...
