The Vintage Collection '10-'13 / Re: New York Comic Con 2011
« on: October 14, 2011, 01:06 PM »
I like most of the vintage figures shown.  I am hoping the make a grey Death Squad Commander figure someday and preferably on a vintage cardback.  I like about anything with a vintage cardback so I'm in for Luke Hoth, Deleted Scenes figures, and even Maul, Kenobi, and Jinn on the TPM vintage cardback style.  Of coure Kithaba and the others are nice to look forward to. 

I am kind of surprised they did not show off their Naboo fighter.  I want to see what it looks like.  I was sort of hoping, wishing, dreaming they would make an all new podracer of some other character.  Obviously they need to focus on Sebulba and Anakin,  I am kind of shocked they did not throw in the figures as a pack-in though. 

The light up figures are something my oldest kid will go for.  I don't mind those.  They look better than those Power of the Force versions.  Although I always like the Emperor figure with the Force Bolts light up feature. 

I'd like to get that Dewback.  The Royal Starship Droics 4 pack is pretty cool IMO.  I may get that for the hell of it.

He is a nice figure.  And who knows?  Maybe with the release of the TPM in the theaters I may actually be able to find a couple of them at retail!

One of the main reason Jocasta does not do as well on this website is because MOST of the members here prefer the OT over the PT.  I don't get that same vibe over at say Rebelscum.  I can see why she gets more votes than Doallyn and Torryn Farr and the others.  The main reason is she actually gets a featured scene with a main character Kenobi.  She's just intriguing enough to get more votes than simple background characters.  I was actually happy to see her in the CW episode.  I think a Clawdite takes her form and we wind up seeing her in some action.  LOL!  She's got that episode going for her along with those that watch the CW.   All of that together bumps her up just that much higher than the others like Sim Aloo, Nikto, Doallyn, Lars, etc.  I really don't think there is that much tampering or conspiracy going on with the votes.  She's just more recognizable then what people might think.

I really love both figures.  I could never really understand the pegwarming.  I guess because he is just a background character.  Oh well.

Those are nice figures, but I am with some other here.  I hope they make at least one with a trench coat someday.

Star Wars Universe / Re: Star Wars on Blu-Ray

If Lucas wants to keep tinkering with the old movies, why not just do a modern reboot with Zac Efron or whoever's popular with the teen girls these days.

No, no, no.  Zac Efron was soooooooo yesterday.  Justin Bieber is the only way to go now :)

I will still be buying up the Blu-Rays.  The "Vader No" scene has actually grown on me a bit the past few days.  Besides I have the unaltered ones on DVD from the "extras" during the last release.  Which buy the way I watched over the weekend to see Greedo shoot first and the Death Stars blow up without halos.  I had forgotten about the brown cloud under Luke's Landspeeder.  Fun stuff.  I don't know why Lucas just does not add that into the Blu-Ray extras?  Oh well. 

I know.  I know.  Burn me at the stake for lining Lucas' pockets...blah...blah...blah.  I probably will go for the Target Lithograph. If nothing else the Complete Saga is the cheapest I have seen so far at $80.

Well some people are expressing that very notion of buying it or not.  They are telling you why.  All the changes have never gotten me so worked up that I would state comments like "George Lucas raped my childhood!!!"  A few have upset me though primarily Han shooting first.  I'm not thrilled with the new Vader"No's".  In fact I don't care for them at all but it does not ruin Star Wars....for me!  However, it would be nice to just get a nice updated transfer of the OT to the Blu-Ray, DVDs, whatever format comes in the future for the OT fans that have supported the franchise throughout all the years.   Yeah, I do take it as bit of middle finger by Lucas instead of updating his art.  What does it hurt if the originals are out there?  I don't get his logic on that angle.

Vader saying "No." and then yelling "NOOOoooo!" does not really ruin it for me.  It's not a change that I love, but I can live with it.  I just don't like the sound of the "NOOOoooo!"  It sounds odd to me.  Again it's not necessary at all but I'm kind of ho-hum about it. 

The Dug I did not mind.  There are so many damn creatures and things running around in the Palace that it does not bother me at all.  Needed?  Hell no!  But it's not that big of a deal to me. 

Jabba Door extension scene.  Meh, ok George. 

Han thawing.  Again not necessary but whatever. 

Wicket with blinking eyes.  Guys I barely even noticed it.  It someone had not told me about it I would not have known it existed. 

CGI Yoda....'YAY!!!"  Love that change. 

Even though these changes don't bother me THAT much I really do crave a DVD copy of the originals.  It would be nice to get the OT movies as they were when they were originally released.  I still don't get quite why Lucas won't just do that?  Hell his good friend Spielberg did it for the E.T. release several years back. 

Maybe after Lucas kicks the bucket it will happen.

I read these are some of the changes.  They may or may not be right.  We will find out later I suppose. 

1) Heard they replaced Shaw's head with Hayden's for the Vader helmet removal in Jedi.  If so that does suck.  But it makes sense since they already changed the Spirit of Anakin for the last release using Hayden's head.  I guess they will claim that the mask makes Anakin's head not age?  LOL.  I don't know?

2) The Krayt Dragon yell is apparently changed again to try and sound more "human" from the last DVD release.  The person reported that it did not sound good.  Eh, we'll see. 

3) Like it was mentioned already apparently Luke's lightsaber is still green on the Falcon.  If that is true that one is really annoying considering that the official website posted a picture showing it back to blue? 

4) Wicket's eyes are changed to CGI.  I don't get the point of that change?  Did he change the eyes on every puppet now?  I doubt it.  So, why just Wicket?  Did they change the eyes on every Ewok? 

5) Greedo TIES Han's blaster shot.  Han still flinches.  So, technically neither shoots first.  LOL.  Wow!  Ok Lucas. 

That is all I have read from the internet today.  I am not saying any of it is true or untrue.

I would be really interested to see if they end up making the distillery and the bar.  Add that to this piece and that's pretty damn great!  Of course I can't afford them but would still think it may happen sometime.
