The Vintage Collection '10-'13 / Re: Vintage Rumors
« on: June 15, 2011, 09:24 PM »
I would rather have a nice ANH Leia.  They have never really made of those that has satisfied me.  I agree a Leia Bespin Escape is preferred over Leia Bespin Gown.  However, I will buy her for that cardback being partial to anything on an OT cardback :)

Nice!  I just wish they could have done a few more figures.  I assume there is no word yet on how much they will charging for these?  I am assuming at least $10 per figure.

That Nien Nunb figure on the box almost counts as a real vintage figure now  ::)

Lovely.  Wave 7 is showing up and I have yet to see wave 4 in stores.

Yep.  I know the feeling.

I would personally like the Hoth Turret they included in that Target battle pack not to long ago.  Throw in another Hoth Soldier variant or that one that was not released on a cardback.  Of coures I would take the Speeder Bike.  The Hoth deleted scene tank or whatever it is called. I am not really into the "just off the screen" stuff but maybe I would be depending on what they would come up with?

I will mainly buy the shirtless Savage for my son.  He likes the picture of that one more than the armored one.  I am sure he will like both though.  Plo Koon does look good.  I will leave him on the shelf though.

I love Seripas.  I know they stole that idea from Men In Black but Kit Fisto was also stolen from them.  I am fine with it.  I commented in another thread but I love that Rex/Jetpack figure.  Kit is ok but I will leave him along with the Stealth trooper.

Some figures of late and this wave here actually make me want to collect the Clone Wars line more.  Plus, I am not having much luck finding vintage figures that I want.  So, maybe I'll focus on CW for awhile.  Anyway, they are getting better with the CW figures now that they have put some articulation in the figures.  I know a lot of them don't have ankle and BJ hip articulation but I don't really expect them to in this kid-friendly line.  I just think some overall design of the characters are bit more interesting in this line lately. 

Savage - I like this version much more than the shirtless one.  However, my son likes the shirtless figure more.  He'll end up with both, but I could see some kids really digging the shirtless, tatoo look on both Darth Maul and Savage. 

Chewbacca - I actually like the Early Bird sculpt on the Chewbaccas we have got in the movie line.  However, this Chewy sculpt looks fantastic for either line.  I will probably pick up a few if I can. 

Piell - I really like Piell in the CW cartoons he was in.  I think the figure does him justice well.  I like the accessory as well.  I don't want anymore resculpts of him in the regular movie line though. 

Astromech Droid - I don't want it.  There is nothing wrong with but just kind of tired of that color scheme and astromechs in general. 

Rex Jetpack - That figure looks fantastic!  I will buy that one. 

Jar Jar - Got him already.

Red Leader ARC Trooper - I thought he was Commander Colt?  I could be wrong.  I don't have a good grasp on all of the CW characters.  Either way I love the design/color scheme on him and will buy it when I see it.

The proud tradition of no ankle joints on Clone Wars Jedi continues!


I know what you mean.  I am glad they at least have put some articulation in the CW figures now.  Well it's been going awhile now but you know what I mean.

I find myself oddly excited for this release.  I guess it's something a bit different in the collection.  Maybe someday they can make us a Death Star Turret.

12" Figures / Re: Sideshow 1:6 Scale Dewback
« on: May 24, 2011, 11:42 PM »
I think they did a wonderful job with what it is.  However, I just can't pay that price regardless.  I am surprised they made it a statue to.  The trooper looks good and the accesories are great. But I will just have to happy with Hasbro's 3 3/4 versions.

That Dewback will be fantastic.  Sure it is much better than Hasbro's.  Then again Hasbro did not charge $200 which this thing will probably be if not more!  I am sure the Sandtrooper will be another $125.  I am looking forward to seeing a gallery of pictures and drooling at them regardless.

Collect All 92! / Re: Princess Leia Organa (Boushh Disguise)

I loved this vintage figure as a kid.  I thought it was so cool the helmet came off.  I think this was one of the first SW figures to have a removable helmet right?  I also like the vintage cardback.  I think this was one of the better costumes in all of the Star Wars films.  It would be nice to  get an update on the modern figure with the SA treatment.  Yeah, I am one of those collectors that likes SA on just about every figure even if they just stand in the background.    The modern one pictured is ok but I don't really care for her arms that much.  They could do a better job on that pike to.  I know they have to meet safety standards with the gummy plastic but it's just too gummy IMO.

I struggle to make a top 10 list out of the entire Prequel Trilogy that I would actually spend $10 on.  There are a few I would personally buy like Cliegg Lars, Padme Buns Style Hairdo, Naboo Pilot with a Coat, 2nd Utai, Anakin/Vader Medic Capsule, etc.  There are some variants that I would like to see like a Blue Magna Guard, Battle Damaged ROTS Kenobi, etc.  The others I would like seeing are stuff like the senators, podracers, Wookie resculpts, Kitster and Wald 2 pack, but I'm not dying for any of those.  If they end up making some then it's a bonus.  I may or may not buy them though.  I'd rather pay money on OT figures. 

Yeah, ROTS is a much more action-packed movie than the other 2.  I can see why Hasbro would focus on them.  The figures are more "action-oriented" from the moment of the Arena battle until the end of ROTS.  You got your Jedi, droids, and clonetroopers, plus the main characters to pick from there.  I get it.  I would still love to get an ultimate Darth Maul though.  I'm sure he is coming next year so why bother to vote on that?

I am kind of happy to see a Tauntaun get trotted out again.  However, I really just want this for a new Luke Hoth.  If they would throw in a nicer Spirit of Kenobi that would be just fine.  Of course this would lead us to wanting a new Han Tauntaun with open belly and guts.  Then another Wompa version.  If they do the Wompa I would like some sort of cave set to go with it with some accessories like a bloody, meat bone (I know there are several bad jokes in there somewhere).  They kind of did this with that last Wompa release, but of course I'm looking for something a tad bit better than that. I know that is wishing for the stars and planets to align but as long as we're going to be paying most likely $20-$25 for a new Wompa throw in some extras!  8)
