Power of the Force 2 / Re: What's the figure you hate the most?
« on: March 24, 2005, 05:02 PM »
It's a toss up between Monkey Leia and R5D4.  They really need to give us a new R5.  It's not like they can't throw a new head on an exisiting R2 body.

Power of the Force 2 / Re: The Beginning of POTF2
« on: March 24, 2005, 05:00 PM »
The last 10 years have gone by so fast.  I remember seeing the pictures for the first time as many others did in Toyfare magazine.  I had picked up some of the Bend-Ems and die cast Action Masters, but they weren't the same.   Real Star Wars figures were coming out again.  I found the Falcon first at Target, so I picked it up.  The first figure I was able to find was Luke at a TRU.  I was able to find the rest of the first wave at a Target shortly afterwards.  They had a limit on them, but it was something like one of each per person, so I was happy with that.  I was a completist with the figures until the POTJ line.

LEGO / Re: Light Up Lightsabers?

The Mustafar Lego set has light up sabers on Obi and Anakin.  I saw it at WalMart about a week ago.  I almost bought one, but I really need to wait.

I wish they would make a Death Star for the figures.  It could be modular like the Jabba Palace sets.  Give us a throne room, a trash compactor, a detention block, a hangar deck, a control room etc and I would be happy.  Maybe they'll do it if this thing sells.

I was pretty underwhelmed by the pictures of the Imperial Procession and Winter operations TRU 6 packs.  The Crimson color is overused now.  The Winter set figures should be all white or off white IMO.  Why would you paint SJ with blue?  And I am sick of SE being everywhere.  He's my least favorite character.

Guess I'll have to start watching Wally Worlds for that Scarecrow, then.  Thanks for the tip.

Maine will not be easy for them.  The Gophers could lose easily the way they've played lately. They need to pick it up now if they want to last another round.  We'll see if they deserved that 1 seed.

"My name is Barry Bonds, and I'm a big whiny baby! I blame everybody else for my problems!"  Go ahead, Barry, retire.  Don't let the door hit your fat, steroid injected butt on the way out.  The game will be better off without you.

Not bad at all.  I am glad to hear that Diamond will be offering the Scarecrow and Bane at least.  I wish they would offer MOTU the same way.  Jerks.

Ryan Reynolds (Van Wilder) as Flash sounds interesting.

I heard that Plaxico signed with the Giants.  They overpaid for that stiff IMO.  I'm glad the Vikings held off.  I'd really like to see them pick up one of the stud WR in the draft.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: Have them all 3/11/05!! pics too.

It feels good to have some figures early, doesn't it?  :)  I managed to find most of the first group today.  They are some of the best Star Wars figures ever, at least in the packaging.  I haven't opened any yet.  If they fall apart, my attitude will quickly change.

I caught that Sin City trailer on TV the other night.  I really need to see that movie.  Not as much as ROTS, but really close.

They seem to hit their stride late in the season.  Hopefully they can get on a hot streak. 
UMD had a disappointing season after almost winning the championship last year.

The Vikings are cursed until they win the Super Bowl, much like the Cubs and White Sox need a World Series trophy to lose that moniker. 
I agree about not liking Anderson.  I never really cared for him.  I didn't mind it when they used Berger as the kickoff specialist.  Now they are wasting a roster spot.  Maybe Eiling will pan out, maybe they draft Nugent.  I would like a young kicker they can count on. 
I think the Tice thing was done by that slug Hovan to get back at his former coach.  Moss may also be the culprit.  I heard that one of the times he supposedly sold tickets was proven to be impossible. 
I think Raider fans will see the true Moss when Gannon or Collins can't get him the ball often enough.  At this point, I like the deal.  Draft one of the top WR with that 7 pick and things look even better.
