Finished another great trade with Jeff this week. He even threw in some extra goodies when the post office returned his mailer!

I've got this series pre-ordered at my local comic store. Apparently it's selling fast!

The Vintage Collection '10-'13 / Re: Toys R Us Vintage Bigg's X-Wing Fighter
« on: August 29, 2013, 11:14 PM »
Yeah I think the X-Wing needs to be widened, if anything. I only own the Red Leader X-Wing from almost 10 years ago, which I believe is the same sculpt as these newer ones, and I've always had trouble getting the newer, SA pilots to fit. Doesn't need to be TOO much bigger, but enough to fit the modern, post POTJ pilots.

I just preordered that box set on Amazon. $105 for the Blu Ray! I think the DVDs are like $80 something.
I had planned on rebuying the first 2-3 seasons on BR anyway but this is ultimately much cheaper.

The Black Series 3.75" Figures / Re: The Black Series 3.75" - 2013 Wave 1
« on: August 29, 2013, 04:49 AM »
Saw remnants of Wave 1 at HEB (Texas grocery chain) today, and since they still had the Vintage SKU, they were priced at $7.98 (these stores never went along with the price increases). Almost snagged the lone Biker Scout and Clone Pilot, but ended up passing in the end.

Hard to believe it's been NINE years since we got the VOTC Han. No ANH Han since then has come close to topping it.

Nintendo announces Wii U price drop, unveils 2DS
Eww @ the 2DS
Still not sold on a Wii U... maybe sometime next year. GTA 5 will occupy me for the next year or so.

Just looked the comic packs up... I literally don't remember ANY of those. My stores stopped stocking them after that terrible Marvel Purple Dengar wave

The Original Trilogy / Re: Does the Emperor Get Haircuts?
« on: August 22, 2013, 02:40 AM »There's a Robot Chicken where they discuss the Emperor getting a haircut? Seriously?
For Jesse.
As also seen on Robot Chicken, Chewie's hair is always perfect, so one would assume he doesn't eat haircuts.
Why do we barely see anyone drink or eat? If that Death Star briefing was held at my work everyone would have had a latte and a scone...or at least some Lucky Charms.
Brought to you by the folks at General Mills.
I think people drink blue milk and eat fruit, but definitely pass on the death sticks.
Hey now, Luke eats granola bars and Yoda eats oatmeal! At least on Dagobah.
Jabba eats frogs... Chewie eats dead animals?

Yeah my sighting today was my first as well. All Targets have either bare shelves or old Vintage figures at full price. Wal-Marts don't even have shelf space for Black Series, and some I've seen don't even have Star Wars in the planogram... and TRU is, well, TRU. They're good with their two restocks per year.
Haven't even seen any sign of 6 inch figs either.

Found most of Wave 1 at a Wal-Mart this morning, literally hidden behind a cardboard WWE aisle display. Luke and Padme were there so I snagged them, and will probably put an order in for Wave 2 online sometime soon. Cardbacks were glued on pretty well on all of the figures, looking like most of our usual standards.
Only other figures I saw were Vader, the Scout and the Clone Pilot.
