The Black Series 3.75" Figures / Re: Toy Fair 2013

Here is a question for you. Disney just announced Disney Infinity video game. This is basically a figure collecting game like Skylanders but with the world building aspect of Minecraft. Are there any plans to include Star Wars in the Disney Infinities series of action figures?

This June, Disney is coming out with a Skylanders type game but based on Disney characters. You buy the figures and then can use them in the game. The game is basically a virtual playset for the action figures. You can fight enemies, build buildings, push buttons, drive vehicles and move figures from virtual playset to playset.

Now that makes me think that since Disney owns both Marvel and Star Wars I can see this virtual playset-type game being applied to future Star Wars figures.

Do you think we will see Xizor do something to avenge his brothers? Why do these guys all have to wear the same clothes?

But you know they will make it 6 points, add no accessories and raise the price a dollar.

I wish we had a reputation system here so I can give bobafett14 a +1.

You mean that show is still coming? I thought it was already on and cancelled. We don't need two stupid Star Wars cartoon shows.

I saw those too at TRU. They were mixed with the older blue box design. Still no figures. Target is down to a single battle droid in vintage and they still refuse to stock!

How does someone hold on and survive having the door open during a hyperspace jump? Wouldn't the ship implode from the air being sucked out at light speed? Why turn on holograms of the crew? Who is looking in the window at light speed?

I noticed these things are available outside the park in the World of Disney store at Disneyland. They had a price increase since their original debut.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Official Movie Thread

Recently I've been going back and watching some older movies on youtube and netflix.

I just watched one called Starchaser: The Legend of Orin from 1985. It's an animated Star Wars ripoff. Set on the subterranean Mine-World, a band of human worker are treated like slaves under the power of the evil overlord Zygon until one, Orin, unearths the hilt of a mythical sword that only he can master. Escaping the planet, he runs into the rogue smuggler Dagg and a pair of helpful droids and the princess, who all team up to return to the Mine-World with a plan to defeat Zygon and free Orin's enslaved people.

It was good movie and well animated.

Just got back from a family vacation at Walt Disney World. Our family really enjoyed the new Star Tours.  We rode four times and got four different tours.

Glad you had a great time. Post some pictures.

2013 Droid Factory = Cancelled / Re: 2013 Droid Factory = Dead
« on: January 8, 2013, 10:10 AM »
I think Disney wants to keep BAD a theme park only exclusive only. Hasbro could easily include pieces of those WDW figures in the packaging but that would cut into theme park sales.  Disney wants to put the concept at Disneyland too.

Hasbro also has unsold stock in warehouses that needs to move since stores don't stock star wars anymore. Even now, I see four identical figures on the shelves and they STILL refuse to stock even after Christmas. Does it have to be absolute zero in stock before a case is ordered? It wasn't always this way.

Targets in my neck of the woods discontinued selling Star Wars figures back last January. No big loss.
