Revenge of the Sith / Re: What figures are hard to find now?
« on: December 5, 2005, 01:41 PM »
I left alot of shocktroopers on the pegs. I think I got 5 and that was plenty.

LUCKY....  I never found a shocktrooper but found all others at least once.  Lately the only figures that are not absent are Palpatine, Mon Mothma, Nemoidian Guard and a few more standard pegwarmers.  The holiday shopping season is good for clearing out figures around Northern VA.

I was actually inspired by CHEWIE's gif.  The way that kid arches his back after getting popped in the head.   :D  Man that is too funny!

Modern Trading / PABLO JILL hard to find?
« on: December 3, 2005, 06:51 AM »
My Kmart has about 20 of these "on sale" for $6 each.  Are they good trade bate or do people need them?  I HATE Ebay but I do need the Lars Homestead Padme and the "new" Bly with brown stripe on his helmet...2 or 3 actually since he is a clone.

I freaking LOVE the AT-AT Driver.  I think I might hurt myself trying to get that one (several actually).  I even like the Snowtrooper even though it's a kitbash of the last two snowtroopers...  Gives me a customizing idea.  hmmmm...

I heard a report on Black Friday of someone finding the 'new' Bly at Kohls.  Since that's the last thing I need from ROTS I've been stopping my Kohls a lot this week.  So I stop by today and I find a Bly!!!!   Heart beating rapidly...then I look and they report must have been about the yellow armpit rings or something because it wasn't the one w/ the brown strip.   DANG!  Oh well.  At least I found something...

i'd say the worst figures would be polis massan...

I love him. :'(

OK man, I'm going to get Mas Amedda this weekend...  Maybe I should email Ardie from reviewsstarwars.com and ask for an autographed version...

Found a Tarkin this AM at Walmart. Nothing but pegwarmers around and only a small amount of figures in total but there he was... must have been from a busted stash or a return...

All I need now is the new Bly w/ brown stripe on the helmet...

Dang, I'm starting to want a Mas Ameeda now... ::)  Heck, I get fired up about figures too easy.  I saw a phone camera pic of Tarkin sitting on the pegs at a WM and I had a sudden "Need more figures" feeling...I'm so addicted...

A scalper is doing that?  Wow!  Looser!  Seems to me that these won't be THAT hard to find by Christmas...I hope... I think there has been WalMart exclusives that were hard to find but I don't remember what the were... ???

OOPS!  Didn't notice the other thread on the "Best/Favorite".  Ok then how about just the Worst.   Thanks Ook.

I think finding the worst is not easy.  The best of the line has some really, really good ones but the worst is a huge area for me.  Although I like the ROTS line more than any other line and it really sets the bar for future assortments it did have a lot of stinkers. 

All time worst for me:
Grevious Bodyguard.  Man that thing stinks on ice!  It could have been cool and I like them in the movie but the figure is just goofy.  Even though the Nemoidian Warrior/Commander warms the pegs hardcore I think it's a better figure overall than the Bodyguard.

Honorable mention worst figs:
What Ook said, Yoda (Spinning Attack!) which is the Micheal Jackson of Yodas...now we have Pancho Villa Yoda (from the Clone Wars line) and Micheal Jackson Yoda
& I still hate Mas Ameeda  :P

Worst Deluxe/Multipack figure: Deluxe Emperor Palpatine.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: Wal-Mart Separation of the Twins Figures
« on: November 29, 2005, 07:31 AM »
I found the Twins today and holy ****, I just noticed the gave Obi-Wan a bit of gray hair near the temples?! Has this been noticed or mentioned anywhere yet? I thought he and Bail were straight repacks. Gray hair?!! :o

And I HATE it. Man, that's ugly. Glad it's subtle.

I noticed this as I was looking at him in the package.  I thought it was different but I didn't get my regular Obi-Wan and compare.  Thanks for reminding me.  You're right about it though.  It looks funny...

« on: November 29, 2005, 07:27 AM »
I've seen all figures minus some of the paint variants e.g., Shocktrooper (pisses me off), new head stripe Commander Bly, "white face" Meena, and until recently (until Black Friday morning at WM) the "Final 5".  Oh, and just last night I found the "metalic visor" Gree...but no new Bly... :-[
