Hey Hasbro! / Re: Your Battle Pack Ideas?
« on: August 11, 2009, 03:18 PM »
I've got a few BP ideas, some are Clone Wars cartoon series...

SKIRMISH ABOARD THE TRANQUILITY
Asajj Ventress, Ahsoka, Luminara, Commander Argyus

DUEL OVER ENDOR
Darth Vader (2008 TLC), Luke Skywalker (2009 ROTJ Wave), Palpatine (Evolutions retool),NEW Royal Guard

STARKILLER VS. MARIS BROOD
Starkiller, Maris Brood (with SA legs!), X2 Felucians

CHASING COUNT DOOKU (from TCW television show)
Space suit Obi-Wan, Count Dooku (w/o cape), Anakin, Battle Droid

The SKIRMISH ABOARD THE TRANQUILITY set could be all repacks, while DUEL OVER ENDOR would be a great way to re-enact the last duel from Star Wars.

Looks like a good figure - would look great next to Kit Fisto or fighting Grievous. Doesn't look like it has articulated ankles and knees, though. Maybe Hasbro can inlclude a fold out 3-D display like they did with the Captain Rex promotional figure!

The Legacy Collection '08-'10 / Re: Legacy Collection Comic Packs
« on: August 11, 2009, 03:03 PM »
I cracked open the three new Comic-Packs last night. The only one out of the six figures I'm really happy to have is Sigal Dare. The rest, I'm sure I'll get some affection for once I read the included comics. Well done figures though.

Is the Darth Krayt figure good? he doesn't seem to be SA (no ankles?), and his mask looks too big. Wouldn't it have been better (and even easier for Hasbro) if the figure came with an alternate head? Oh, well.........hopefully we get Darth Wyyrlok soon!

The Clone Wars / Re: CW "Ambush on the Vulture's Claw" Battle Pack
« on: August 11, 2009, 03:21 AM »
I was looking for this on my toy run this afternoon.  And there was no sign of this at any of the stores I hit, despite Clone Wars having a significant presence at almost every store I visited.

When exactly is this set hitting shelves? And, considering the prices for Battle Packs have taken a significant hike since 2007, would this set do well at retail? it's obviously very kid-centered, but it'll surely make its way to some collector's collections. But Battle Packs at some stores are shelf warmers.

Toy Reviews / Asajj Ventress (2008 The Clone Wars)

So this was a pretty good figure. 12 points of articulation (minus elbows), but her likeness is totally awesome! She looks like she's jumping out of the T.V. screen! She's super-poseable, but she can't hold her lightsaber too well, so careful. Her removable dress feature is cool, except it leaves her with a hole in her waist. Don't hesitate to pick her up if you see her at retail, she's very hard to find. And does anyone know if she'll be re-released in the new red/white line look? 'Cause it'd still be a good release.

Hey Hasbro! / Re: Zam Wessell

ANYONE ELSE? COME ON! we NEED a new Zam!

Totally agree. C'mon, Hasbro! It'd be nice if she could include her assassin droid. Oh, and maybe those kouhons. Oh, and maybe an alternate Clawdite head and rifle, and asking for a removable arm feature wouldn't be pushing it, would it?...  ;)

Definitely like this set. Although Battle Packs are pretty expensive these days in some stores ($27 plus tax at my local Target), this set is definitely worth it. Just look at that new SA Farmboy Luke!

The Legacy Collection '08-'10 / 2009 ROTS Wave
« on: August 11, 2009, 01:26 AM »
Who's impressed with the upcoming ROTS wave? It definitely looks better than the 2008 ROTS wave. The Plo Koon should be cool, Agen Kolar is a great upgrade, and, obviously, everyone will totally be after the concept IG-88! The Commander Cody looks SWEET! Captain Colton just MIGHT be a peg warmer in some stores, not to mention that Utai wrangler...

The Legacy Collection '08-'10 / Re: Funeral Pyre Vader w/ Luke
« on: August 11, 2009, 01:13 AM »
Can't say I'm that overjoyed. Although a smart concept, it's another Luke and Vader (honestly!). It'll be worth an appropriate price, but at Comic-Con it was reported to be aiming for $44-48.

Hey Hasbro! / Re: Comic Packs Hasbro should make!
« on: August 11, 2009, 12:48 AM »
I had these packs in mind.....

Celeste Morne/ Cade Skywalker (sleeveless pirate outfit) [Legacy]
Hossk Trey'lis/ Darth Maladi (w/ maybe even a torture droid as a bonus?  ;)) [Legacy]
Alto Stratus/ Nimbus Soldier [Legacy]
Azly Rae (pre-cyborg)/ Rakghoul [Legacy]
Azlyn Rae (cyborg)/ Jariah Syn [Legacy]

And has anybody noticed that Hasbro made no mention of the cyborg Darth Maul from Visionaries in their panel presentation??
