The Vintage Collection / Re: Hasbro Q&A Sessions

I think characters from the Ewoks and Droids cartoons will eventually be covered, I also think they will eventually make some figures from the live-action Ewoks movies. They will eventually have to touch on some of these characters if for no other reason than that they will eventually run out of characters.

Second from right appears to be a bald, female officer, also probably imperial. 

The body is wearing armor of some type and I think the far right figure is an Evo Trooper silhouette.

My guess is six more figures based around The Force Unleashed video game.

That was my question from the JTA forums.

The answer sucked.

2765
When is the last time that happened though?

Actually around me, this happens a lot. It also happens a lot with items that come out near the end of a line, specifically right before a packaging change.

Unless you're driving around with the Mygeeto battlepack and receipt in the car all the time when you make your runs, it's not even worth the gas to do this.

Well, I typically hit TRU and a Target either going to work or going home from work, so it's not that big of a deal, but with gas prices like they are, I understand where you're coming from.

2766
I think one or two hit locally at TRU. I'll be waiting for them to hit Target myself.

Yeah - if I find them at Target, I will definitely grab them there and then return them using my TRU receipt.

My motivation for picking them up was pretty simple: What if I never see them again?

I know there's a good chance Target or WalMart will get them, but what if they don't? I picked up the one I did so I would have one in my MIB/MOC collection. I'm convinced that this battlepack will get re-released in the blue/white Saga packaging so if I don't find a set to open in the TAC packaging, I'm not overly concerned. I could definitely see Target and WalMart not ordering any more stock of the TAC Battlepack assortment.

Bought a bunch of stuff this week:

1x Force Unleashed Rancor w/Felucian
1x STAP Attack BP
1x Hoth Patrol BP
1x Battle on Mygeeto BP

I also picked up a STAP Attack BP for a friend, so it was an expensive week.

I just need one more Battle on Mygeeto BP for the MIB collection and then I think I'm done with TAC except the Droid Factory 2-packs coming next month to WalMart.

2768
I found one at a TRU in New Jersey.

They are definitely out.

Last Crusade Indy In Stock At HTS

Availability:  This product will begin shipping on or about 07/17.

It reads as in stock, but you're going to wait a while before it ships.

Huh?  Is that Cairo Thug set for real?   Did I really see the future?

I hope it is - I would love to score a pair of those.

You know what's funny? I was thinking the exactly the same thing as the rest of you: "how the heck am I going to swing getting 13 of those?!?"

I've got enough stickers and forms to send away for four and my fifth certificate is short two stickers.
My current army builder counts are:
German Soldier x4
Russian Soldier x4
Ugha Warrior x4
Cemetary Warrior x2

If I upped my Cemetary Warrior count to 3 which is the number in the movie, upped the other three to six of each and I was already planning on picking up a second Dovchenko to put at the controls of the Jungle Cutter vehicle - those additional eight figures would bring my certificate tally up to six complete certificates.

I know that relics and stickers will be coming with the Last Crusade and Temple of Doom Waves and both of those have six figures each so that would bring my count up to 8. I think I'm going to buy extra Thugee Soldiers from the ToD wave, but even if I picked up only six of those, that would leave my ninth certificate short one sticker.

So even if I grabbed an extra Indy or something, I would still be short four Crystal Skeletons to complete the dio.

I have to say, before seeing the movie, I thought Hasbro had kinda blown it with the mail-away figure. How wrong was I?!?!

Scored a pair of the Force Unleashed Rancors the other day. A very nice piece. I'm thinking that I want to score one more so I can have two open on the off chance that one day they release a Shaak Ti figure from The Force Unleashed, I can put her on top of a Rancor of her own.

2774
My top five are no brainers:

1. Toht
2. Belloq in White/Tan Suit
3. Marion in White Dress
4. German Mechanic
5. Indy in German Soldier Disguise w/RPG

That would finish out the vintage line being made. We already know from Hasbro that three of those are already on tap for eary 2009.

Then the rest of my wishlist would be:

6. Colonel Dietrich
7. Captain Katanga
8. Hovito Warrior
9. Marcus Brody
10. Ark Spirit with Interchangeable Beautiful/Meanacing Heads

Well of the Souls / Re: Hasbro Indy Playsets
« on: May 17, 2008, 04:51 PM »
Was the Temple of Akator playset delayed or something? I was just looking through the Indy selection over at HasbroToyShop and it says the playset will be available for shipping 10/21. Is that correct?

Seems odd that they would wait so long to release the playset - could there be a Wave 5 based on KOTCS that hasn't been announced yet?
