I'm still voting for Minneapolis.  I know the MN guys would be bummed, but I could drive that one.

We would be bummed?  I would love it if it were here!

Hmmn...I am probably up for this set depending on cost.  I still don't have the Early Bird set.   :P

I really like this set.  Not sure how I would fit it into a diorama though - it will look ridiculously big versus an AT-AT from Hoth or even next to the teeny Ewok Villiage.   :-\

I'm pretty happy with just about all of these.  The Black Hole Stormtrooper with just a lone fig is easily the loser of the bunch.  Tholme and T'ra are my favorite - I never thought these would get made.   Delia and Nihl are a close second.  I like the Jarael and Rohlan set too, but surprised to see his face under the mask.  I haven't read the past few issues - is this actually revealed in one of the recent comics?   ???

Just picked up the Speeder Bike scout trooper for $32 myself.  I also had my eye on the speeder Leia, as the paper cape on mine is rolling up and I was considering a replacement, but now I'm glad I didn't break up the set for you.  I checked the bid history earlier and saw that the same person was the current high bidder on both.  Congrats to both of us.    :D

Nicely done.  I was watching that scout as well - was hoping to get the trifecta!  Congrats - that's a nice piece at a really cheap price.

That's a nice score.  Bummer that I still collect half my stuff carded - I could have multiple coupons in there and not even know it.   :P

Well, I just finished a bidding war (probably with some of you) for some Stealthtank's goodies on Ebay.  I managed to get the Endor Luke and Leia for $39 and $37 respectively and a Skiff Guard Lando for $3.50.  I tried to get a few other chases, but with everything ending within a 3 minute time span I wasn't able to bid on all I wanted and knew I would get sniped if I bid beforehand.  Really low prices on early bird Luke and Leia - I would have paid beyond those prices, but oh well.  I'm pretty happy to get the Endor set - that's one I never figured I would own.

BEST. WAVE. EVER.  Holy crap what an awesome assortment of figures.  There's not a one here I don't like.  I might be 3x or 4x sets just to show my appreciation to Hasbro for making such an awesome wave.  Wow.

Per Jacen, I think YV Emprace of Pain is bigger than that.  I think that's just the Yorak Coral slave piece from when he's enslaved by the YV (can't remember the name of the novel, but it's where he gets all buddy buddy with the world mind that will take control of Coruscant).

Anyone spotted her at SDCC yet?  I've been curious about this piece a lot, actually.  I'm still assuming it's a "no" though.

I thought it was confirmed that this was a custom?   ???

Congrats on finally seeing this materialize Scott.  That's got to feel good.   ;D

Wow.  That Zebra Batman is gorgeous.   :o

While one could debate the victor when it comes to exclusives (I'd lean towards Target as winner for 2-packs, Walmart the winner for the big stuff), there is no debate that the clear loser is once again K-Mart.  :P

Their "Clone Trooper Squad" pack is yet another in a long line of suck.    ::)

Funny - I would have gone the other way.  I like the Droid Factory sets better than the Target 2-packs of late and Target's Rancor and UBPs surpass any WM big ticket items I can think of.  Definitely agree with you on the Kmart repackaged crap though.  You'd think not ever selling these would lead to a stop in suKexclusives, but they are determined to put out crud no one wants year over year.

So Hasbro has a poll HERE where you can vote for 3 figures to be included in the next Legends two packs (Hasbro picks the other three figures).  More pics of the figures can be seen HERE.  I voted for Brother Voodoo, Constrictor and Valkyrie, with Bi-Beast being choice #4.  I have no use for another Wolverine, Hulk, Havok, Phoenix, Ms. Marvel, Deadpool and Black Widow (although she looks much better than the TB version).  I want Warpath and Multiple Man, but not in those outfits.  I also wouldn't mind having Nuke, Lady Bullseye, Hood and Terror Inc, but not before the four classic characters I voted for.  Bag Spidey is a gimmick figure and would be better suited in SMC and I have no idea who Fantomex is.

And a big FU to Hasbro for making figures in the MU scale that we've all been clamoring for years in the Legends scale - Wrecking Crew and classic Ultron just to name a few.  It's a big slap in the face from those of us who bought your **** for years and that's why you won't see a dime of my money supporting your new scale.

Thanks for the tip.  I voted Deadpool (never got the first one), Valkyrie, and Ms. Marvel (that version technically appears to be Moonstone for anyone paying attention).  Black Widow looks better than the first release, so that would be on my want list as well.  Did anyone else notice that blackbolt looks like a Thing with two heads?  What's that all about?  I won't be buying any of the others on the list - Lady Bullseye and Fantomex?  Come on.  I get coming out with figs that are current in the comix, but if that's your plan how about releasing US Agent or a Hercules (now starring in two comics) or a decent villian like Crimson Dynamo.  I did like the Hood option, but not enough to buy it.
