Wow - damn, didn't know about that one.

Need one of those two.

Got the Indy coin, just looking for the SDCC and CE coins.

Scarred face?

Hold the phone a second...

The helmet is removable?    8)

Got my package today - so much for worrying about convention exclusives from here on out.

I'm looking for the SDCC SW and Indy Coins too if anyone has a spare - I don't have many coins outside of Death Star Troopers (keep giving my extras away) but I do have good old fashion coin I can send your way. :)

I'm perfectly content with this figure...  Getting as many as I can find at this point.

Same here - you have to be looking pretty closely IMO to find problems with this guy.  When the 30 or so of this guy is mixed in with 90 other stormtroopers, I won't be noticing his slightly puffy helmet or whatever.

I found them tonight - at a collectibles store at the mall.

They had Ellros or whatever his name is, Jedi Luke, Animated Fett, Sandtrooper... they also had UGH figures - Airborne Trooper, Biggs, and Vader.

But the figures ranged in price from $9.95 to $19.95 (fett) - I left it ALL behind.

What a rip off.

I'm just not willing to pay $20 to get 2 heads! 

That's why I didn't do it either.  That, and because I'd bet a dollar that Hasbro puts those heads on the new SA body soon enough anyway and we get the whole figure for $7.

Why would you try to use anything other than the Comic Pack Han/Luke heads?  We already know they fit on those bodies, and under those helmets nicely.

Found 2 more at lunch today - I'm at 26.

Was the 501st clone the SA one or the AT-TE body one?

One in St. Pete collapsed when I was a infant - it was over the water... a huge mess.

Big thanks to Paul for hooking me up with 9 Death Star Gunners found at $3.00 a piece.

I'm not so much into 'Hasbro dreamed' items either. I'm also not into Hasbro making an item calling it something when it really doesn't even represent that EU character(see Storm commando)

I'd agree with that - and slapping the design team's heads onto figures doesn't do anything for me either.

It's at a convention in Baltimore - other than that I haven't been paying much attention.

I'm not bothered by it so far - I don't think I'd go so far as to say I'm liking it.

This is probably because I don't read the comic books - so all these comic book characters mean almost nothing to me.  If they start focusing on the novels at some point, I'd probably get real into this stuff.  I'd love to see a focused subline like a 30 figure NJO line that comes in random waves, or a dozen figures from the Heir to the Empire trilogy, or something like that.

As it stands, the quality seems to be pretty good on most of the sculpts and builds... the EU wave looks pretty solid, the EU sith Evolutions set looks stellar to me...  So all-in-all I'm doing okay with it.
