And if you drove both of those cars down the highway at 55mph?

I don't mind paying $8 for a 3.75" figure here and there. But $10 and I'm out.
I'd rather spend $20 on a nicely scaled and detailed Masters figure:

If it's mostly highway I'd wonder why you'd go after the extra weight of the battery rather than buying a Corolla or something with comparable highway fuel economy.
It's mostly highway. I owned a 2007 Corolla and averaged 30 mpg at 68 mph. A close friend of mine routinely averages 45 mpg with his Prius at highway speeds.

But either way, if you're buying a used one, maybe you'll finally be the one to answer how long the battery lasts,
I'll let you know but there have been anecdotal cases of Prius' going over 250,000 miles with no issues.

what it actually costs to change out
Batteries from low mileage wrecked cars can go for as low as $700.

and the environmental fate of the old battery.
I'm more concerned with saving money and getting to work.

If and when gas hits $5/gallon, people won't give a **** about toys.

Don't tell Brent, but I'm looking at a used Prius for my long haul to work. . .

Well, if you're looking for a decent Luke and Obi Wan to go along with your newly acquired Saga Falcon, that ANH set is pretty nice.
Actually, all of those OT sets look really good.

It's by choice. I only want the best representation in my collection.

Does anyone have a comparison pic showing the difference between the old and new clone designs?

That Luke sculpt is amazing. Was he a prototype or shots from tooling?

« on: February 14, 2011, 11:15 AM »Pretty lousy showing, if you ask me. The only thing I'd buy out of that was Man-E-Faces and maybe Clawful. What in the blue **** is a Battle Ground Teela anyway?
I've kind of taken a sabbatical from this line, anyway. I'm forced to get them on ebay since I'm at work when they go on sale and they sell out before I'm done, so I've broken the monthly habit.
Agreed. I love this line but it feels like something is lacking.
