I'm stunned actually that Ward figure even got approved. 

Found the exclusive set with Bane and Batman at TRU.  Cool, but not $35 cool.  Apparently there's an exclusive Gordon at WM.  Sigh.

Don't have one of the racks (how cool would that be?) but I do have one of the shelf display boxes for the 12 backs.

Found the TDKR Movie Masters at Wally in Iowa today.  Case is 6 figures, 3X Batman, 2X Bane, 1X Alfred.  NO Catwoman.  Bought Alfred.  Also had some basic comic booky figures... lame.

If that's Talzin, that's a poor version of her.  If that's a generic CW Nightsister... it's funny how you get everything you want and nothing in the same shot.  A for effort, D for execution.  Wow.  Either Maul is coming on the card and this set both, or the carded line is trouble.  Thoughts?

Who falls in love with a girl who actually liked star wars as much as him...

That's really how I feel.  What do I write about?  And I find the stuff.  Quite a bit of it actually.  I was very excited about the 3D line and the victory lap for TPM, and I really enjoy the figures, for the most part.  And then something has just gone out of it.  I got the Evazan case with Wedge today.  A carded Wedge has been at the top of my list since 1995.  I looked at him and put him down.

Congrats to the winners!

Thanks again Jesse and JD staff for your support!

The case assortments are mystifying.  It could also be the market.  The reality is a lot of these collector focused figures don't sell through the way they used to, which leads to clogged pegs when Hasbro's forecasts - and the assortments have to be based on forecasts - don't pan out.  Hasbro's lead time to adjust assortments is fairly large, so we don't get immediate revisions and the market can't correct itself. 

That being said, part of it is how they plan these as well.  A collector based line should see two of everybody in each case, on new figures.

Movie Heroes / Saga Legends '12-? / Re: 2012 Movie Heroes Line

I actually really like the light up figures.  The likenesses for Obi and Qui Gon are the best they've done, and easy swaps.  The rest are tragic though.  Jar Jar is ok, but the vintage seems better.
