Well, I guess our weaknesses finally caught up with us.

I would have loved to see a post-season with Santana, a health Liriano, and a healthy Radke, but what can you do?

Our hot bats got us into the Central Division title, and then unforunately, the lack of those same hot bats killed us.   :'(

By making it a family event, it is no longer perceived as a selfish collection! Bwahaaa haaa ha ha ha  ;)

Uh, they aren't for me, they're for the boys!   :-X

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: New "Greatest Hits" Wave - Collector's Choice?
« on: October 6, 2006, 03:02 PM »
So basically, even though Hasbro said "We don't have any plans right now for these" when asked about more Greatest Hits waves a month ago in the Q&A, now they announce they are going to foist 20-24 more repacks on us next year? 

When they hinted at having a fan choice for repacks, I assumed it was going to be like the OTC where it would be ONE repack selected by the fans.  But 20-24 of them?  And that's above and beyond the repacks they were already going to give us in the basic 30th Anniv figure line...   Ick.  ::)

Just for fun, I merged every "Rebelscum bitching" thread we've ever had at JD into this one.  Now you can enjoy 220+ pages of various kinds of Rebelscum bitching and bashing over the last 3+ years all in one place! 

Spam e-mail!  Bannings!  Stupid Mods!  Offensive Usernames!  Trolls!  Log-in problems!  Site down times!  Photoshopped GNT!  This thread has got it all...

I'm tempted to say yeah, but when I think about some of the other Jabba Palace figures they have done (like Droopy and Max Rebo) I think he'll fit in nicely the way he is...

If they went from the 2nd pic to the 1st pic, that'd be one of their all time colossal **** ups.

Something else that struck me last night after I shut off the PC...

It's very telling that Hasbro has pics of the first McQuarrie Trooper up, but not the 2007 repaint...

Like Mike said, the pic in the Hasbro update is most obviously not correct - it's just a pic of the first release figure and definitely NOT what we are getting in the first wave (a white/gray version with new deco shield) which is what was in the early leaked pics from GH/RS/JD.

If it can happen for the McQuarrie, it can happen for the Mace too.   Add in what Matt said about the carded figure and I'm definitely expecting the first Mace that was shown and not the one in the Hasbro update...  :-\

The 25% off, free shipping promo code works until October 9th, but that is at HasbroToyShop and I don't think they have the Imp Officer set (at least not that I can find on their site).

Looks like he's at the St. Paul main branch today... they should try to deliver him today at some point.  I don't know if they will leave them at the door though, so I may have to pick them up at the post office tomorrow.

Got a super-fast payment from Paul for some figures! 

I always love the simple, smooth transactions and this was definitely one of them.   :)

If they get blown out 7-0 and you have two guys and the goalie, you could really lose a whack of points in one night.   ;D

Or, maybe your stud ends up on the ice for 4 of the 5 goals against you:

-3.60 from my #1 pick tonight.   ::)

Well, let's just hope that the production version is the Hasbro photo then.

Unfortunately, we really have no way of knowing which picture is "newer" or the version we'll get.  Like Jayson said, plenty of times we've seen a good-looking sculpt/paint job on the hand-painted/promo figures only to have some kind of manufacturing glich or last minute swap screw it up...  :-\

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: 30th Anniversary Tin Collector Set
« on: October 6, 2006, 12:06 AM »
Picked these up today at my local Wal-Mart ($28.97 each plus tax):



The price seems kind of steep for 4 figures and a tin, but I guess it's only about $6 for each item and the repacks they picked aren't half bad.  Plus, at least Wal-Mart was $1 cheaper than TRU or Target (which list them at $29.99). 

I've already got a bunch of JD stuff to do tonight, but hopefully I can get them open and get some nice loose comparison pictures tomorrow night...  ;)
