Modern Classifieds / Re: Need a few common Loose figs
« on: December 17, 2005, 03:40 AM »
I have 2 POTJ Fleet Troopers for you Jim, $6 each plus shipping if you want them...  For obvious reasons they're not something I need in my collection.  ;)  I have my loose quota filled by far and away.

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: Customs by Fritzkrieg Update 12-17-2005
« on: December 17, 2005, 01:40 AM »
Hah, now that's cool Fritz...

I'd had an idea very similar using the same figure or the skeletal remains Deadite.  I was sure it would be a LOT of work though so I bailed on the idea totally.  I bet that was a real pain...  It looks sharp and the pictures are creepy.  The helmet's missing piece for the face is cool, but I'd put some burns around it because the helmet wouldn't really deteorate but it could've been blasted open I do believe.

Looks great man...  Very cool.

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: Love Bounty Hunters?
« on: December 17, 2005, 01:34 AM »
I'd be J'Jaym'Es...  He rocks because he has all these abilities and powers to control stuff electronically, and abilities to abruptly end any kind of discussion he's hunting.  It's really cool when he lines up his prey in his sights.

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: What happened to Geonosis after Episode III?
« on: December 17, 2005, 01:31 AM »
I think the seperatists abandoned Geonosis because, just about every clone and every Jedi knew it was the main droid factory and seperatist base?  ???

It's tough to say...  After the initial battle there could have been a stalemate to take the planet...  It's fairly remote.  Also whatever CIS support available could have been on the way.  Geonosis was a major player so Poggle just bowing down and handing his dustball on a silver platter doesn't sit well with me.  In envision it being a place either immediately abandoned by the Republic due to the "costs" involved in trying to hold it against the costs in trying to control it via shipping raids and more passive methods of blockade or assaults on droid distribution attempts (from this planet anyway).  I also figure Geonosis is but one of MANY droid factories around the galaxy... 

I envision Cloning stepping up too and moving from just Kamino to a number of other planets...  Good to not have all your eggs in one basket afterall.

Geonosis though I just figure becomes a CIS held world that the Republic maybe eyes strategically but doesn't actively assault till either the end of the war, or immediately after the war's declared over it's basically overrun and controlled.  Just some ideas I had about it anyway.

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: Jett: the best youngling
« on: December 17, 2005, 01:27 AM »
Yeah I can't see what Jett would have been if not a Jedi...  A very background child on the street?  Meh...  Lucas wanted his kid to have a cameo in the movie, that is all, and lucky day for that child when he got adopted...  F'n little snot.

Basically, that's the way of it...  Don't keep the argument up unless you've got something really substantial to add please.

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: How many Troopers make a squad in ROTS?
« on: December 17, 2005, 01:24 AM »
That's according to whatever military organizations decide...

For me, 4 men's a team but a military could call it a squad if they wanted.  Squad's usually are a little larger and broken into teams (IMO), but whatever.  Answers were given, they're all valid, move along...  move along...

I like that you print screened your desktop for posterity Ook, that's f'n classic.

Sad state of affairs when you have to actually safeguard all information because Scum's going to inevitably delete anything you counter them with so they don't look like massive tools on their own site.

I love that it's here to be read, that's a good reply.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: VOTE: Willrow Hood!!!
« on: December 17, 2005, 01:17 AM »
First I'm glad we're seemingly capable of NOT posting umpteen "Vote for...." threads around here.  Kudos, but Bill's thread slides becuase...  well...  It's Ice Cream Maker Guy Wilrow Hood.

As much as it'll likely hurt Scott I'm not really leaning towards him right now, but he's been on my mind.  And ya know I'm to the point I'd buy him happily if he came out.

I love the guys that are just too new in the hobby that are "elsewhere" right now bitching up a storm about ICMG even being on some people's wishlists.  ICMG's about as boring as any senator figure in my eyes, so anyone asking for Neimoidians, alien senators, etc. is asking for something about as popular on the pegs as ICMG maybe would be.  At least ICMG's from Bespin though in the original trilogy.  For that alone I'd vote him over any Mon Mothma/Bail Organa type figure at this point.

And it's better to blurt out anyone's name at any moment than to pat your mom on the ass. :)  That's funny and yet somehow I really think you shouldn't have shared.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: Christmas and ROTS
« on: December 16, 2005, 11:22 PM »
Pretty dry around Pittsburgh and sadly I'm finding I now need to be picking figures up for someone's son who's having a rough time financially this year.  I have a Gree I was going to return for him, and I think a couple #41's too around here and a Cantina Han (who doesn't have an extra of this at this point?).  He's getting a Luke ROTJ light/sounds saber too.

I still think Hasbro took some stuff back from Target though...  Those Neimoidians cannot have sold.  No parent with sanity would have bought those.  I refuse to believe it. :)

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: 12/16/05... Stern's Wrapping Up
« on: December 16, 2005, 10:46 PM »
Yup but I couldn't see him swearing really...  It didn't fit with where the edits were coming in.  He kept the "eh eh eh eh" going for a euphamism for Sirius too so I think he was being careful but either crowd noise was needing the edits or he slipped up with some stuff.

It was weird, I was listening to it here and then I just heard this dead air and then it was back but made ZERO sense.  The conversation was butchered obviously, so I had Yahoo open but minimized and low volume.  I just turned it up and turned K-Rock off.

I'm not in the SS...

If I got that though I'd send the other person this:

I heard that you've been bad this year...
So listen, here's the scoop.
Instead of getting Coal this year...
You get snowman poop.

And I'd give thema baggie of mini-marshmallow's.

And the Fleet Trooper sucketh, and sucketh rightly.

Yep.

That was about what I was gonna say and leave it at that, but yeah...  I've done that.  Sometimes it's just what's going through your mind at the time, be it someone else's name or whatever...  I've called girlfriend's "mom" because my mind's still on a conversation I had with my mother or something...  **** happens.

She shouldn't be mad at you Brad, it's an honest mistake...  Now if it comes out while you're getting freaky then there's something to be pissed about.

I've found it's better to just keep quiet or make animalistic noises...  Names just confuse matters.

Josh, I listened through Yahoo.  I tried listening to K-Rock in Pittsburgh but they butchered his show...  yes, even his last show, so I just gave up and listened to the Yahoo broadcast which lasted into the afternoon.

Sirius is seriously worth it I think if you are looking for radio OTHER than Stern.  It's kinda like buying a gaming console for one game.  To me that's not good thinking, but if you're sure you'll want other games coming out then to me it's a good smart purchase.  The Comedy Channel (dirty of course) was enough to sell me on Sirius...  Other channels I'm sure will appeal to me, and Stern was just what solidified me wanting it then. 

It's funny, but a local station that played classic rock just turned to the "Bob" Format and it's really unlistenable.  Just horrid.  Other than K-Rock I've been listening to just Christmas music on the oldies channel...  I just can't take the dribble on the top 40 station, the classic rock station's playing "other" stuff now, the other CR station went to the BOB format...  And from what I understand K-Rock isn't gonna be the same after Stern leaves as far as what they play, so I'm basically happy to be done with this...  It is just such a steaming turd around here really.

Oh the commercials were the same everywhere Anton...  Man they sucked hard.  You'd get seriously a good 15 minute span at times of commercials I think.  It was sometimes hard to deal with if you had short commutes, haha.

They whored the hell out of his show while they could but man it was over the top really.  And with Sirius only costing $13 a month it's not bad at all...  Especially given all the other programming too.  I got to mess with my buddy Dan's Sirius Radio and the comedy channel alone was worth it to me, but yeah there's all kinds of good stuff...  My buddy always jokes that what he'd hear on the Sirius I'd hear (music wise) about 3 months later, but really he wasn't kidding...  Pittsburgh was just that out of touch musically really.
