Hall of Justice / Re: DC Collectibles 3.75" Convention Figures
« on: March 14, 2013, 03:49 PM »
- Next up will be Guy Gardner/Larfleeze w/Glommulus, but they didn't announce which show that will be, nor did they announce how many shows they will be selling at next year.

Looks like Guy/Larfleeze will be up for sale at both WonderCon (March) and C2E2 (April).

I'll definitely be buying this set...   assuming I can find one somehow.  :P

Hall of Justice / Re: DC Collectibles 3.75" Injustice Figures

And two more 2-packs in the Injustice: Gods Among Us 3.75” series:

- Aquaman / Black Adam
- Superman / Nightwing

We're now up to twelve really nice 3.75" DC figures wearing costumes from a video game that I care nothing about.    :-\

Going to see Brent's man-crush and the Ducks tonight.  Should be a great test for the Wild.  We were terrible against the Ducks in the first 4 periods we faced them, but looked good in the last two.  Hopefully we come out strong tonight and sneak in a win.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Clone Wars - Season Six?

Yeah, this statement from the story seems to say it all:

"While the studio is no longer producing new episodes for Cartoon Network, we're continuing production on new Clone Wars story arcs that promise to be some of the most thrilling adventures ever seen. Stay tuned for more information on where fans can soon find this bonus content."

Done at Cartoon Network, but will live on in some other manner (probably DisneyXD or direct-to-video like many have speculated).  Not a surprise at this point...

The Sequel Trilogy / Re: Disney Buys LFL

How Disney Bought LFL

Really interesting story there.  Fills in a lot of details about just when Lucas decided to get the band back together for Episode 7, when Disney came on board, etc.  Definitely a good read.

Took my oldest (ok, he's only the oldest by 90 seconds :P) to see his first NHL game tonight.  Thankfully, the Wild complied and pulled out a 3-2 win over the Red Wings.  Fun game made even better by the win.

And, last night was son #2's turn to see his first NHL game.  Again, the Wild complied by whupping on Dale's Oilers for a 4-2 win.  Hall took the night off becuase his leg hurt, so this game had a lot less fireworks than it could have.  Nice to see the Wild focused on getting two in regulation instead of revenge though.

6-3-1 in our last 10.  Nice pace, hopefully we can keep things rolling and hand the Blackhawks their first regulation loss.  We're the team that handed the Blackhawks their first shootout loss, so at least it's in the realm of possibility. :P

Can't even bring myself to list ten names here...  all I really want from this movie is:

1.  Aehrrley Rue
2.  Kitster Banai
3.  Wald
4.  Tey How (Neimoidian Controller)
5.  PK Droid
6.  Ann/Tann Gella
7.  R5-X2

53
I think this is the year I stop playing the "who else can I put on my list to get it to ten names" game. 

With the current delicate state of the Hasbro 3.75" Star Wars line, I don't think I can in good faith lobby Hasbro to add someone like Erdan or Jira into the line.  :-\

The good news is that more 2012 Movie Heroes figures are shipping this Spring...  the bad news is that this Spring will see more of Waves 2/3 and NOT the Wave 4 figures that people are trying to find.

EE has posted these two new cases for Spring 2013:

2012 Movie Heroes Wave 3, Revision 1 - March 2013
2x Darth Maul, 3x Clone Shock Trooper, 2x R2-D2, 2x Battle Droid, 1x Darth Vader, 1x General Grievous, 1x Clone Trooper

2012 Movie Heroes Wave 3, Revision 2 - March 2013
3x Clone Shock Trooper, 3x Darth Vader, 3x General Grievous, 3x Clone Trooper


Like I said over in the similar Clone Wars thread - they can get us NEW case assortments of the 2012 carded stuff but can't find a way to get us the 2013 stuff?  Epic. Fail.

File this one under "WTF?" or "Things that rub salt in the wound":

The Clone Wars / Re: Clone Wars Wave 30 (2013 Wave 1)
« on: February 27, 2013, 01:15 AM »
So have we been able to get a firm "Yes" or "No" regarding this wave ever making it to the US?

I have not seen anything 100% concrete either way.  I sent the PR guys an email today asking them to please double-check with Hasbro to get the "official" status of the three "lost" waves (2012 Movie Heroes Wave 4; 2013 Movie Heroes Wave 1; 2013 Clone Wars Wave 1).  I will let you guys know if I hear anything back from them...

I finally heard back today.  Here was the direct quote that I summarized for the front page:

"Movie Heroes and Clone Wars 2013 waves are outside-US only. We're waiting to hear back on the others."

The "others" mentioned are 2012 Movie Heroes Wave 4...  but at this point, it's probably safe to assume those are not coming to US retail either.

RIP, (MASSIVE SPOILER).

I guess [creator redacted] had stated a few times in interviews that this was always his original plan for the character, but I really thought the money aspect of the character would keep him alive. 

Times like this make me miss reading the [character redacted] books.  :(
