I am watching for a S2 marathon, so if anyone catches wind of it, a head's up here would be super-appreciated!

The show returns February 12th.  I would expect a marathon all day.

I think it may have started that way, but at this point, there's certainly plenty of collector demand out there, probably created by the silent treatment.  Maybe Hasbro's just brilliant like that, spending 12 years to create demand for something that otherwise would be boring.


The Prequels came out 12 years ago?

13 years this May.

I have to admit, the prostitute backstory is weak at best.  They could have any backstory at all.  Like, their smugglers who work for the empire and are actually helping the rebels.

I finished this book in a couple of days, but just haven't gotten around to writing a review.  Overall I thought it was good.  I think the actual ending could be in TOR game...the novel was basically written to give a backstory to the game.

Always welcome to visit.  But I'd prefer we not get beer on the carpet.

This is the coolest thing in the line since the Turbo Tank, so there's no way I'm not going to support it.   

That's like saying someone is the tallest midget.  Sorry, I wasn't overly impressed with the Turbo Tank.

I think the MTT is an interesting choice, and I want to see more about it.  But I really don't know how I'd incorporate that thing into my collection room.

I think you'll see the re-release of the AT-TE for AOTC...possibly a retooled gunship as well.

For ROTS, I'd like to see Palpatine's shuttle.

ANH would most likely be a re-release of the Falcon.  Frankly, I'm surprised we haven't seen it in vintage packaging already.

Slave 1 would be a good one for the release of ESB, with a re-release of the AT-AT perhaps.  I'd like to see what they would do with a Star Destroyer, but anything they did would be horribly underscaled.

For ROTJ?  You guys who have been screaming for the Sail Barge might actually get your wish with the MTT being released this year.  I'd prefer a nicer Imp Shuttle, with a properly scaled cockpit.

It seems to me that Nielsen won't exist in a few years. There is no way they can track DVR or internet usage. The networks themselves can grab the internet numbers. If I remember correctly, the Nielsen ratings comes from an extra cable box connected to the tv. It will know if you record a show but not if you actually watch it.

There is a box connected to the TV for some.  I once participated in the Nielsen ratings and they sent me a log book that I wrote down what shows I watched and at what times.  This was back in 200 or 2001, long before DVRs were popular.  If they are still using the logbook method, it would not be hard for them to update the way shows are logged to track DVR usage.

I have 10 podrace aliens on my shelf and I do not have Rats Tyrell yet.

I saw one today.  Want me to get it for you?

3505
4 or 5 I think?  I might've traded 1 or 2 now that I think of it, but yeah...  I kinda went batty there.

That's one I wanted, but decided to get the Falcon instead.  I'm hoping for a re-release next year.

I can put the two stadium seats we have from the original Mile High stadium in front of my 62" HDTV and not only have the in the stadium feel, but a better view.

Also....check your listings for Saturday night.  It's replaying here at 10 pm, right after the local news.

I like all three.  If I can find them, I'll buy them.

An interesting piece to be sure, but I think I'll pass initially.  Mainly because I just don't have the space.  If I tried to put it on my Naboo battle shelf, it and the Fambaa would take up all the space.

Also, didn't Obi Wan run around these things in the Naboo swamps?  Just trying to throw out the tie-in.

Did he just lower his head and ram past you with his titanium hair?  Or did he just force his way past you standing completely "erect", as it were?   :P

He was really nice about it actually.  I couldn't let him into the VIP area without a special pass that he didn't have.  He tried to talk his way in at first and when I explained the situation to him, he just shrugged his shoulders, sais alright andd walked off.  More like stumbled a bit....it was obvious he had been partying in the NFC tent.

I also mt Mean-Joe Green and searched Tom Landry's Wife's purse.
