Other Collectibles / Re: Gentle Giant Statues
« on: February 20, 2006, 08:38 AM »
Anyone heard any new news regarding the Tauntaun statue? I thought it was a February release, but I haven't seen anything in a while-

That darn Rancor looks superb! I wonder if a bantha is far behind. They (Gentle GIant seem to do the beasts as well as you could ever ask-

It is a let-down to not see something for this line at Toy fair. I don't know about your areas, but here in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, the small unleashed sit and sit and sit. Some of them even look pretty cool, but I'm not plopping $10.00 on them , and it appears others are feeling the same way.

I would like to see some more attention paid to this line by Hasbro. This is a great introductory product for younger kids, it makes collectors pay attention, and it has that super two-punch of small product/reasonbable price. Imagine if that shelf space for choppers and battlers were dedicated to some ships and playsets for these guys. The current lines are making stocking the shelves one of the easiest jobs on the planet (nothing moves).

Gentle Giant / Re: Gentle Giant Busts
« on: February 20, 2006, 08:27 AM »
That line of 2006 mini-busts looks fantastic, and I am disappointed I will not be going to any conventions to snag a shocktrooper.
As much as I like this line, the size makes it difficult to collect and display. I have about 15 pieces, but they are mostly exclusives and troops, and I will try to keep with that theme for whatever I do pick up.

Gentle Giant / Re: Gentle Giant Bust Ups!
« on: February 20, 2006, 08:22 AM »
Yeah, I went into 2006 pretty sure the bust up line was going to low priority in my collection. But it is hard to resist good prducts at reasonable prices. As a bonus, they take up less space than many other items as well. The line-up looks very good this year indeed, but I will have to resist the urge to get the mini-busts. They take up too much room to display!

Can someone give me the 30 second version of how to post a pic?

I see the ewoks have started hitting ebay in force- $140.00 and up with BIN's. It will be interesting to see where the actual auction ones end. with ESB Fett holding pretty steady at $150.00, I can't see the furballs ending up higher than that.

Original Trilogy Collection / Re: How many VOTC Stormtroopers are in your army?
« on: February 20, 2006, 08:10 AM »
Chewie- those clone bodies with the bust-up helmets are fantastic! I think Hasbro should buy their helmets from Gentle Giant for the upcoming Lucas stormtrooper, that POTF 2 hat is a joke at this point in the line.- Unfortunately that plan would result in a quality product, violating some company policy I'm sure.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: When will the ROTS clearances start?
« on: February 17, 2006, 04:54 PM »
I went to TRU tonight to check out the 4.99 sale. They had ROTS figures in megabuy two packs for 8.97 each- including 2 packs like Wookie Heavy gunner and Kit fisto, Tarkin and 65 Tactical ops trooper, C3PO and Tact Ops trooper, and many others.
Might be worth trying to fill in some holes at that rate--

Hey Hasbro! / Re: NO CHASE FIGURES!!!
« on: February 17, 2006, 02:37 PM »
It's been said in many articulate ways in the previous posts. They are bad. Period. It brings in speculators and alienates/frustrates collectors. Don't even pretend these would get to the kids.

LEGO / Re: 2006 Jabba's Sail Barge
« on: February 17, 2006, 02:30 PM »
The sail barge looks awesome, and comes with a ton of characters. I hope I run across one of these at a decent price...

I'm way behind on giving Jeff props for all the cool stuff he has hooked me up with. My Kubrick army wouldn't be the same without him!

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Battle of Hoth Wave
« on: February 17, 2006, 02:22 PM »
I hope the local TRU carry the Hoth wave during the sale- I would like to grab a couple more snowtroopers and AT AT drivers. I have been comparing the AT AT with the OTC Tie Pilot. Hasbro can really do the imperial armed forces proud when they try.
