Sorry for the delay - here's what I have done so far.

I just finished my basement (drywall and carpet, so you'll have to excuse the lack of base trim - it drives me nuts)!

My ANH poster is still in storage and AOTC and ROTS are being framed as we speak.  That explains why the TPM poster is next to the ESB one  :)

I'd like to display my loose figures next to each poster but I'm afraid that may not work as the posters need studs to properly hang....that leaves a lack of space for shelves...

Hehe, that gun is crazy!

It can't be to scale, the thing looks like it should go with a 12" clone trooper!  Weird.

One in my zip code, but my town is really small - he's only a block away too.

was surprised to find that there are many differences in the ship as depicted on the box compared to the final product. For example, the area where the "Target" label is applied on the rising wing-flaps is recessed in the picture, and raised on the actual toy. Odd.

Happens quite a bit actually.  A scratch built prototype is usually built for box photography because a production sample is not available in time. 

I have experience with this... 8)

So, is it that the type is lower case? Because guard is spelled: g-u-a-r-d. Just curious.



No, not quite.

The error is the plural of Grevious.  It should be Grevious' Guard not Grevious's guard.

What a cute kid!  Must take after mom!

Did you say you have three other kids?

What are their ages - any potty training tips? 

 :D

Philip disgusts me, and as Gary has already pointed out above, has NO right to have the forums that he does.  Those were Mike's, and Philip stole the **** from him - whether it was figuratively, or literally. 

Are you talking about TFN or am I just not in the know?   ???

« on: April 4, 2005, 03:48 PM »
To answer your question, I like the Jedi Force better.  They appeal to the younger kids - 3 years and under.

But then again, my son who is two, loves to play with the regular 3 3/4 figures because I think the Jedi Force ones are too kiddy for him OR he knows that since they are out reach he can't have them!

The Force Battlers seem to be targeted towards the older kids, but that seems kind of redundant as the 3 3/4 line already fills that need.

With that being said, I don't care for the Force Battlers - looks like somebody sketched out a concept and it transpired to plastic overnight. 

I like the Vader though!   ;)

« on: April 4, 2005, 02:56 PM »
I'd be happy too!

I can almost guarantee they did not make any money on those figs at that price!

Maybe I haven't been paying attention, but I was unaware that the first 56 figures were out already??

If one were to only pick one saber from ROTS, which one would it be?

I have the ANH Vader one and would like to pick up another unique saber.

The Anakin saber is similar in style to the Vader one, so that's out.

I like the Obi Wan saber but the Sidious saber is sooo unique.

Any suggestions?

Title says it all...if you have / can find these at the store I'll still take them loose to save on shipping and you can KEEP the little choke hazard figure that comes with them!

How's that for a deal!   :o

Really don't have any trades but can pay via paypal.

PS:  I have feedback on RS under the same user name.


Edit:  Also looking for OTC holographic Emperor.

Cool, thanks.

You know I was thinking, it wouldn't make sense for us to know what the figures look like....when our forefathers participated in the first early bird promotion, they had no idea what the figs looked like...right?!

I just hope they are new tools and not rehashes like the classic four pack (lame) or clearanced VOTC (super lame).

Crap, I forgot there's a better SA version coming out!  I bought three of these to open.

This one is okay but the right arm is pretty much static and has that stupid quick draw feature!

Not bad, but I'd trade them for SA's anyday!

I avoided the Target crowd and hit WM at 8:00 A.M. - had the whole aisle to myself!

At about 9:30 I drove over to Target to see what was left and found a scalper? loading up his cart (he was hoarding the end cap).  He was almost 60 years old - maybe he was buying them for grandkids but sometimes you just have a feeling....

I thought "the hell with him" and went to the main aisle - lo and behold what did I find?  One lonely Lava Vader on the pegs!

Now I have one to open!
