Hey Hasbro! / Re: Questions for Hasbro?
« on: December 25, 2007, 06:26 PM »
what are the chances of a new Jabba in the near future? I think Jabba in the Ultimate Battle Pack would be a great idea! Either from the added scene in ANH the Falcon hanger scene, or his throne room or even aboard his Sail Barge?

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Which Star Wars sub-line do you most regret not buying?
« on: December 22, 2007, 08:15 AM »
I think Master Yoda would say "regret" is a path to the dark side, A shade of guilt is regret which leads to fear which leads to anger which leads to sufferinggg, all pathways to the the darkisde. Dont give into the dark side young padwan. Bakwards never one must look, foward one must look to the future but be mindfull of the past but one must not dwell on past mistakes made as oneself." Add to your Star Wars collection in 2008 and spend spend in '08 my young Padwan with no regret. ( And no I was not drunk when I wrtoe this) LOL
I do not consider the Mconcepts a sub line. They are part of TAC just as much as every other figure in the line. Now what I do consider a sub line are the Saga Legends and all the other repack/repaints waves like this, now I do have some regreat buying these, even though I only tend to buy figures like fans choice and figures I missed along the way, ect. No regrets here!

PIcked up McRebel from my hot wheels collector friend, he beat a local scapler to it!
My weeks pick ups include: Half of the WalMart Jabba entertainers set (dancers) I have the other half which happend to be the orginal vinatage set from ROTJ. I also picked Quilan Vos Comic pack, I know it took me a while but I had a gift card from TRUS so I said why not! I think the Comice packs are one the best ideas Hasbro has come up with in a long time. Looks like I'm about ready to wrap up 07' and look foward to 08' where I can be more picky about what I buy.

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Cutting back in 08?
« on: December 20, 2007, 11:34 PM »Just wondering... for those of you running out of space, what do you do with the older figures that have new sculpts?
For instance, how many of you replace these -
I actually found a POTF Han at my Local TRUS! What is strange is that store opened about 8 years ago, far past the time where someone could have stashed the figure. I think someone donated it to the Toys for Tots, they had an event going on today.
With these -

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Not impressed with Hasbro this past year!
« on: December 19, 2007, 10:29 AM »I have to disagree on nearly every point as well. I've been incredibly impressed with Hasbro for three years running:Large production run of figures? What? besides w4 and the SL
Large selection of figures
Large production run of figures
Superior quality of figures
Superior distribution of figures
What's not not be impressed with?
Superior distribution of figures? LOL! they were hit and miss for the most part, maybe your Targets and WalFarts have a special designation as stores that get their product first, but I think the IE sucked!
IM NOT IMPRESSED!

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Not impressed with Hasbro this past year!
« on: December 18, 2007, 08:50 PM »I will have to disagree. My only gripe is I just don't have enough mula to buy everything I want. But that is just a personal problem. Really folks if you can't get it at the retail stores there are plenty of other options out there. There really is not much of an excuse to not get what you want if you are willing to spend a few dollars more than retail. It's just the way it is with this hobby. You don't have to go to Brian's Toys either. There are tons of etailers you could try, or trades, or classifieds, or even Ebay. It's nothing new. Unfortunately we can't get everything we want at retail. Well some can actually.I want to make Hasbro better! This is The #1 toy/collector line of all time! Maybe I set the bar to high, but I except Hasbro to think outside the box! I just felt that this was the 30th and everythingshould have just not average but but out this world!
As far as exclusives go. They are what they are an exclusive item at a store. Some are cool and some are not. Just because you don't like them does not mean a vast majority do not. I like the ARC-170. I like the AT-RT battle pack. I like both Hoth and Endor sets. I have not bought them because of funds or I want something else more. But I think they are decent exclusives.
I don't really get the ripping on Hasbro. This is probably the best modern year for collecting SW items that I have seen. Many will agree with that. I agree it's not perfect distribution wise but it rarely ever is. Personally I have seen most everything on the pegs this year except for a couple of McFigures and a few of wave 5.
I can see the gripe on the convention exclusives a little bit. People were upset about a coupon or something? I can't remember. However, I do remember be able to order both Luke and the Droids easily if I could.
