and the Mace looks kit-bashed...

It looks like the Mace from the Saga Jedi Council Cinema Scene to me... they just added the same ugly over-sized robe to him.

The rest of the figures look like straight ROTS repacks (with a few more ugly sg robes), so I'll pass on this one too.

and the mentioned black stormie?

Once we actually know all the details on how it will be released (when and where), I'm sure Jesse will add that one.  ;)

I've got my Sacul in a case from Oscar.

I sent him the bubble depth of Sacul and he sent along the correct size Kubrick Case (I think he said he has two differnt depths now).

Works great, looks nice and keeps carded Sacul nice and safe.   ;)

I picked one up through the Hasbro site as long as I was ordering

I did the same - I picked up the Artoo-Potatoo when ordering my GH 2-packs (and he arrived yesterday).

Artoo is a bit smaller than the other Potato figures, which makes sense I guess.  And he doesn't really have as many parts as the others, but at least he's got the mini-Holo figure which is cool.

I'm still not entirely sure why I'm buying these potato guys, so I guess I could go either way.  If they do make the eventual Obi-Spud Kenobi or Luke Frywalker, I'd probably buy them, but if this is the last one, that's cool too.  ;)

Hasbrotoyshop.com has all of the new GH 2 packs.  Priced very well at $4.99 a set.

I just hope they don't cancel my order because of the "wrong" price.

They didn't cancel my order, I got them yesterday.   :)

I was glad to pick them up from HTS.  $5 plus 10% off with the COMICON06 code was a great deal.


I really love this batch of figures - all new and no repaints!

- Wedge /TIE Pilot:  I love this Wedge!  They did a great job with his removable helmet.  The TIE Pilot is a great little figure too. 

- Han/Greedo:  Nice to see that Han is new and not just a repaint - new gun and new arm, he's a bit less bulky than the original Han too.  Greedo = great!  I always liked Greedo, and he's really had a good year between this and the VTSC figure.

- Han/Luke Stormtrooper:  Again, great removable helmets on these.  A really nice feature and they work well as regular stormies too.

- Obi-Wan/Sandtrooper:  Nice to finally add a new army builder, and the hood down version of Ben is pretty nifty.  Great saber pose too.


Now I just have to wait for the boys to get a little older so they can play "Star Wars" with me...  :P  ;)

The JD Kubrick Checklist includes links to pictures and articles with info on each figure.

We are working on updating it with Series 6.

I also received a quick payment from Justin. 

Quick payment and easy transaction, my favorite kind of deal.   :)

Thanks Justin!

Just under $1 million to go (that should only be another day) and Dead Man's Chest will pass Sith and move into #7 all-time - $381 million!  I knew this thing was going to be a big blockbuster summer movie, but I can't say I was expecting these kind of numbers.    :o

It will be interesting to see where it ends up after all is said and done.  Spiderman ($403 million) is still well within reach (especially if it keeps up the $10+ million weekends), but will it have the legs to make a run at The Phantom Menace ($431 million) or ET ($435 million)?

I  picked  up  the  GB C-3PO Lava Base Variant at Valencia  Target  Saturday. 

You mean he's shipping with two different bases?   ???

I hadn't heard about that one yet...

*There's a lot of crap in there that a lot of folks probably wouldn't be too keen on paying $10+ for

Yeah, there are really only a few VOTC/VTSC figures they could do at this point that I really want them to do. 

Don't get me wrong, I'll buy them all if they make them, but my life will go on just fine without SA VOTC Rancor Keeper or SA Pruneface.   :P

I'd really, really like to see them get to the ones below.  The rest = meh.

Star Wars
     Death Squad Commander
     Walrus Man
     Death Star Droid (silver, not black)

The Empire Strikes Back
     Rebel Soldier (Hoth)
     Han Solo (Hoth)
     Princess Leia Organa (Hoth)
     Rebel Commander
     Imperial Commander (Black Uniform)
     Bespin Security Guard (Black)
     Zuckuss
     4-LOM

Return of the Jedi
     Gamorrean Guard
     Emperor's Royal Guard
     Klaatu (Jabba's Palace)
     Weequay
     Nikto
     The Emperor
     B-Wing Pilot
     AT-ST Driver

The Power of the Force
     Artoo-Detoo with pop-up Lightsaber
     Luke Skywalker (Stormtrooper) - I'm not counting the Marvel POS version.   >:(

You're one of a handful of people in the entire world who won the exclusive Rayrob t-shirt; is that not enough?  Some people.  Sheesh.

It's here!


clicky for larger picture!

I'll treasure my RayRob Shirt forever... I haven't even taken it out of the package yet for fear of lowering it's value.

1x Chewbacca (Cloud City Escape, Saga #54)
1x Kit Fisto (Clone Wars, Saga #55)

2x Clone Trooper (442nd Siege Battalion, ROTS green markings, Saga #57)

I have to admit that's a pretty nice case assortment - 1x everything and an extra of each ROTS Clone. 

I'm really glad to see that they weren't dumb enough to pack Maul or Chewie at 2x per case.   :P
