Bummer to hear about the issues. I'm not planning to get an opener until month, so I guess I'll be able to join in the dissing then.

Took the plunge and ordered 2 Royal Guards from Amazon. My first ever Amazon order for Star Wars figs.

Picked up the KMart AtSt today. They seemed to have a good supply.

Wow. Just wow. Incredible to think how badly one wave screwed up the entire year.

Just ordered the last two 501st Vintage troopers from HTS. Tried for three, but was denied. When I went back to the main page, they were out of stock. Whew! I can wrap up wave 4 now.

Movie Heroes '12-? / Re: Ewok and Rebel Pilot Multipacks
« on: August 5, 2012, 09:09 AM »
I'm a huge fan of pilots, in fact I think we only have one to go to complete the Yavin battle set, red ten. However, with this set, beyond the over-use of the Luke body, the heads on "Pops" and Tiree sit too low on their respective bodies and the insignias on "Pops's" helmet are uneven. The blasters also don't work for the standard Luke hands. They should have had the standard RFT blaster.
If these hang around on the shelves for a while and if there's a sale, I'll probably pick up another set to make snowspeeder pilots.

I heard of people finding him.
I picked up the TRU Ewok and Pilots multi-packs just now. Nice, but at 40 bucks a pop, ouch.

That they do. They supposedly get the best price on cases on the planet. And, their wholesale discount is laughably small.
Now that the SDCC discount has expired, are there any other promos at HTS?

I'll be happy if these do make it to "in Stock." At least I'll be able to finish off wave 4.
It seems waves 2 and 3 went up between last night and this morning with a lot selling out already.

I'm pretty sure because they have three times the overhead as BBTS. EE is a huge operation with a huge warehouse and 40-50 employees.

Stupid disclaimer. I pre-ordered 2 cases. Hopefully I'll be able to snag some more Royal guards elsewhere.

« on: July 30, 2012, 08:43 AM »This is the last vintage wave for now, right? It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the year turns out with waves 4-7 fighting their ways onto the shelves at the same time.
They'll just vanish like the waves from 2011. I didn't even see that much of the wave with Rebel Fleet Trooper or Revenge of the Jedi carded figures, the wave with Bastila Shan I didn't see at all.
Where did they all go? Other parts of the country? An alternate dimension?
The revenge waves sat in warehouses and got dumped at Tuesday Morning. It seems the Panda Baba waves got unloaded at babies R us.
