30th Anniversary Collection / Re: 30AC Wave 8 - Repaint Replacement Wave
« on: May 24, 2007, 02:15 PM »
The early C-IV pics seem to indicate that the Rebel Vanguard really is just a straight repaint of the black Saga06 Endor Trooper mold with the RFT Helmet and Vest slapped on him.

Ick... no improvement there.  I was hoping we'd get some new weapons at least, but it doesn't look like it.   :-\

I'm still digging R2-B1 though.  I'd love those little droids, especially with that sculpt.  :)

My hope is that the R2 is made of the R4-G9 mold

Unfortunately, the figure they have on display sure looks like the VOTC sculpt (judging by that removable panel once again).  Also looks like some leafy green paint ops on the feet.   :-\

30th Anniversary Collection / 30AC Wave 7 - Battle of Endor

No thread for this one yet?  Hmmm...

From the front page:

"Wave 7 also makes an appearance and Endor fanatics should love this. A new A-Wing Pilot (Tycho Celchu) w/removable helmet, an Ewok 2-pack (a dark grey-black Ewok and a lighter brown Ewok, both warriors in the new smaller sculpting style), R2-D2 (Endor Feast) with a net and spit for your new Ewoks to carry him on, Spirit of Anakin Skywalker (with Hayden Christansen's likeness), and Conceptual Art Han Solo (with removable headgear)!"


Endor Feast R2 with net and spit = cool beans.  Great piece to complement the Endor 3PO from last year.   :)

Man, I hope one of those Ewoks is Wompus!   :D

Man, I am loving what I have seen so far of the Han Solo w/Torture rack.  Very cool.  8)

No Fel Comic Pack - Fel is a pack-in with the TIE Interceptor.

Hasbro confirmed that Fel is in the Comic pack in the Q&A, remember?

We can confirm that Fel *will* come in the 2-pack and that the TIE Interceptor will come with a figure, but it will not be Fel.

They have to know Celebration IV is happening this week. A perfect time to make a new announcement.

I agree, with both C-IV and the 30th Anniversary this week, it'd be the perfect time to announce Series 8.

yeah...everytime I think about this it makes me a little sick.  When did our nation's currency get a "this space for rent" attached to it?  If the mint wanted to make some commemorative coins, fine.   For it to be legal tender, and an ad campaign?  Absurd. 

The Silver Surfer quarters were NOT made by the US Mint.  The government was not involved really...

The Franklin Mint (a private company) took legal US California Quarters and stamped a full-color Surfer artwork on the California side.  If you look closely at the high-res image you can still see the California artwork on there, it's just harder to see with the color stamped on it.

It's kind of similar to people writing a web address or graffitti on a dollar or something.  And it's not the first time someone has done it - the Franklin Mint has been doing this for years for other promortions, it's just the first time someone is using it to sell a movie.
