I cracked open the three new Comic-Packs last night. The only one out of the six figures I'm really happy to have is Sigal Dare. The rest, I'm sure I'll get some affection for once I read the included comics. Well done figures though.

DA - did you find these at Target or Wal-Mart?

Is the Darth Krayt figure good? he doesn't seem to be SA (no ankles?), and his mask looks too big. Wouldn't it have been better (and even easier for Hasbro) if the figure came with an alternate head? Oh, well.........hopefully we get Darth Wyyrlok soon!

Found the comic packs at Target.

As for Krayt, no articulated ankles. Is he good? Having not read the comic yet for reference, he seems alright.

Has anyone scored that new Luke/Lumiya set? And is Lumiya the same color as in the comic...Hasbro said that they would do her that way.

And one question regarding Lumiya (I thought I'd put it here since I'm already talking about her). Luke shoots her ship down, and she's severly injured, which is how she becomes a cyborg. But in the Essential Guide to the Force book, with Luke and Vader on the cover, Lumiya is shown with Vader, and she's being treated by a medical droid. In this pic her body appears whole, even her arms, which are described as cybernetic in many novels, look real - is she a cyborg in this picture? How come she appears relatively unharmed? Did Vader and the droids fix her cybernetic body up to look real? Or is she still 100% organic here?  ???

There's a prototype image of Nom Anor in the new issue of ToyFare (#146).  According to the article, he's due out in a comic 2-pack that should be in stores in Fall '10.

That's actually addressed in the novels.  Not sure which picture you mean, but her cybernetic parts are made to make her look like she doesn't have any physical damage.  She uses a lengthy process to hide her head wounds as well and is something of a master of disguise further down the road.  They even talk about her ability to use the force to cloud how others perceive her, so that she can move around in public without showing any kind of disfigurement.  The figure, I think, is meant to be her cyborg self after being shot down and trained by Vader.

I bought this figure on RS boards for $5 shipped. It's a nice figure and looks close to the pilot figure facially. The body has a lot of cybernetic detail and the exposed face shows a Terminator-esk look. Worth getting even if you are not into EU stuff.

I really want the Luke from this set, I just missed them at my Target today as I found the remnants of repacks.

Anyone have that magazine?  I'd love to see a scan of it.

I wonder what happened to the Visionairies Darth Maul, shown in the insider last fall?  Really looking forward to that figure!

I think he is set for a 2010 Comic pack with an Older ROTS Style Obi-Wan. I have a friend in the industry who saw a line list, but I do not want to become Rebelscumish and start rumors. I think Hasbro did confirm he is a comic pack figure in a Q&A. Can anyone else confirm that?

From Q&A @ JTA - "We now have more information on the timing of this set. Due to a crowded Fall 2009 comic pack schedule, this pack has now been slotted in with the first wave of 2010 which should be on shelf approximately January/February.  Since it is still so far off, we don't want to confirm the figures in the pack except to say that your guess on one of the characters is incorrect."

Since we didn't see a BorgMaul comic pack at SDCC, either it wasn't ready to make it's debut yet or maybe it got bumped again to later in 2010 like the Fixer/Camie comic pack...

2010 Comic Packs
« Reply #418 on: August 18, 2009, 09:13 PM »
I'm just posting it here to separate it from the 2008-09 Comic Packs thread.

The upcoming Darth Nihl/Deliah Blue seems weird to me. Why not Wolf Sazen in Deliah's place?  ??? Maybe a Jariah Syn/Blue set would have been better? Hmm, Hasbro?
And wattabout the KOTOR set including Jarael? (Looks pretty frickin' good!)
AND has anyone noticed that the cyborg Darth Maul as seen in Visionaries wasn't shown in the SDCC 2009 presentation??!!  :o

The fans respond!  8)

She has big boobs and is more popular than the other characters. I am sure the others you mentioned will come out. I can see Syn with that Cowardly Lion Jedi as a Comic pack.

The KOTOR sets does look great! I am pissed they pushed the Norhogi set & Cammie set for the friggin Blackhole Stormtrooper and Clones sets. Talk about bull****. I think everyone has had their fill of Blackhole deco.
