The picture on the back has the correct markings so I assumed this was an error but if this is showing up more often then it's just Hasbro slacking at the end of a line.

Dagobah Vader

POTF2 Vader

Stormtrooper Luke face

Cut away vader helmet, cut Lukes face in half and trimmed to fit the Vader helmet. Filled in gap with a non drying clay and colored in clay with a black Sharpie. This figure is about 11 years old and like I said..a NON-Drying clay..so yes it is still soft around the face.

For those of you that have seen my other Vaders my skills have greatly improved and so have my supplies. All I had on hand this day was my Dad's old xacto knife, the clay and the Sharpie I dug out of a drawer.




I have posted this over at FFURG as well in hopes of getting alot of participation. I think it's fun to see how we have progressed in our skills and show newcomers that we didn't all start of with some super duper custom right out the box.

Darth Maul with paint error. I was picking it because I liked this particular version of maul but once I saw the error I couldn't pass. I'm not a collector of variations and errors bt I like having these kind of pieces in my collection.

I know there is some glare but I think you can see the paint error on the chin is all black.

Passed an accident on the way to work one night. A girl had been thrown from the car and was lying on the road covered with blood. Many had stopped to help and paramedics were shortly behind me so I continued on to work. A police officer stopped by my work about 2 hours later to get some food for the crew at the scene, he said that she died.

I now pass the roadside memorial set up by the family and friends everyday. The scene of that night still haunts me. I am the father to 2 little girls and to see someones daughter laid out on the road dying really hit me hard.

As for a moment when time stood still..saving my 1 year old from chocking.. she had started to turn blue before I got the object out of her throat..she seven now, but knowing how close I could have been from loosing her or seriuosly injuring her...a fathers nightmare.

my sis has found 3 comic packs with clones instead of han at 2 different locations. all clones have been the same but  not look SA and she said some parts look like stormies with a removable helmet. is there some sort of running change or something ?? because someone else on a different forum said they found the same thing. :-\

Pics of these would nice if you have them. There is a good chance that these are returned packs with a clonetrooper put in place of Han and resealed to get the money back. The fact that this has been found in some other locations would not be uncommon, things like this were found quite a bit during the EIII release.

I was kind of surprised to find a Stormtrooper mini-hologram packed in with R4-M6.  I would have thought that Mace's droid would come with a hero mini-hologram.

It looks like Hasbro gave up at the with keeping with the hero/hero, villian/villan with the holo figs, I've seen several that should have been packed one way but were the other just like the Mace droid.

My store got what looked like one case of figures yesterday, Holo Cody wave, and that was it. I'm on my way out the door right now to see if they break out another case this morning. Now that I know the Tins are BOGO it's worth getting the 2 they have on the shelf since my Wal-marts never clearenced theirs out.

Picked up Training Darth Maul  today with a paint error. I'll try to post a picture soon, but His chin is painted all black instead of the red with black markings.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Does ANYONE collect Baseball cards anymore?
« on: February 5, 2007, 06:37 PM »
I collected until 60% of my collection was stolen :'(. I quit right after that. Besides most card packs now can cost in upwards of $5 or more and you only get 4 cards to a pack. I remember when 1.25 was high but I atleast got 12 to a pack.
