then I found a good source for cheap loose figures (please shop wisely).... Brian'sToys.com.

I couldn't keep from laughing when I read that. ::) :D

I think it has something to do with the Empire becoming much stricter and trying to eliminate any individuality. At the end of ROTS the Star Destroyers also are plain and have no clor like they did at the begining of the movie.

But, I think it is posible that there are colored Stormies in the OT. We just don't really see them. If you think back to ROTS, the only white clones we saw were on the Star Destroyers and the dead ones in the Temple. In the OT the only Stormies we see are from Star Destroyers or the Death Stars. The Troops on Endor are from the Death star so that would explain why they are white. The Sandtroopers are a possible "color" variation even though they are just a dirty white. The Troopers on Cloud City were also from a Star Destroyer, so they would be the white "Fleet" Stormtroopers. In ROTS the Troopers that are stationed to a particular planet have different colors, but the "Fleet" troopers are white. This is all purely hypothetical, but it kinda makes sense.

CHEWIE, I like the 501st colens and Stormies, but like DD I don't really like the speckling. It looks odd. I think you did a good job and the chipping on the blue paint for the stormies. It looks more random. I think you could add the blue on the knees for the clones and the stormies. Your lines do look nice and straight, you sell yourself short on that ability. :)

1:6 Scale Figures and Collectibles / Sideshow Gets 12" Figure License!

If I can find a way to sneak these into My budget, I definitely will try to pick them up. The vote was hard for me to pick I had a really hard time narrowing it down between Thrawn, Vos, and Kanos.

But in the end I went with Vos.

1. Vos
2.(tie) Thrawn
2.(tie) Kanos
4. Mara Jade
5. Padme.

I figured they'd get to that Padme at some point, she is still a core character just in a EU outfit.

Sly Moore, Rabe, Yaura, and Queen Amidala pegwarmed here for awhile. Pablo-Jill moved quickly though. Other than those 5 I didn't see a single POTC figure at retail. I got the Cantina wave at C3 but they dropped me $10 each or maybe it was $9.... either way, much more than I wanted to spend.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: Anyone know the Target DCPI #s?
« on: September 2, 2005, 04:18 AM »
Question on this, and it relates to the final 12. I sent a PM to the poster over at Scum, but a guy posted that Target has changed the DCPI numbers for the final 12, and they are now priced at $6.99! OUCH if its true! Sorry about this, I am a a very tired teacher who has been at the school for 12-14 hours the last two days for open house and parent-teacher conferences, and I cannot write, spell or look normal at a monitor. Anyway, I have not searched the thread to see if the final 12's DCPI are posted here, and if they are, has anyone looked to see what they ring up as to confirm the price increase?
I've been waiting or a price increase to $6.99 for a month now, and at Wally to $6.88 since we are moving into the Holiday season in a month or two, so I just wanted to cofirm it (that and combined with the price of gas!).

God I hope not. >:(  But it wouldn't supprise me. There goes Army building with 501st clones. :-\

I actually got the idea from another custom here, I think it was Kit Fisto's. I loved the idea and I happend to have a spare one so I used it. I was worried this one wouldn't come out too good since I just randomly threw stuff together, but I'm pretty happy with the end result. Thanks alot for the kind words Lance. :)

Ennis, I'm glad you made it out of there. Where are you at now?

No, I still think we should pass it off on some one, I tired to make a joke, it fell flat just like most mine. :P

Swirly! :D

Thanks Perennial, I'll give that a try. :)

It'd be better if you can hold off, at least until the last week of the month, since today is the first day we are "supposed" to work on these. :P Some people may feel rushed too if they see a whole bunch of customs at the begining of the month.

I shook it like mad, for almost a minute, then I stirred it when it was still thin. And nothing worked.

I'm going to bump this up, since I have a question about Tamiya paints. 

I bought 5 bottles the other day, because I wanted to try some better paint and they had it in the colors I was looking for. Everyone says these are supposed to be thicker.

The paint seems to be much thinner, instead of thicker. When I go to apply it my brush just wipes it off and it won't cling to the surface, it seems way too watery. I wonder if it is the brush I'm using or if I am completely missing something and I just suck at using them. Anyone have any tips on how to use this stuff correctly? ???
