Fan Art / Heres an idea...never will happen...
« on: February 12, 2004, 05:40 PM »
What if SW.com had a contest involving star wars artists, say, designing a charachter for E3, or Clone wars? How big do you all think it would go over?

Also, if you have a pic that you would enter, if they held said contest, post it here!

Saga '02-'04 / Dollar General gets Star Wars toys in...
« on: February 4, 2004, 07:52 PM »
A friend of mine at a Jurassic Park collecting forum (rather, 2 friends) have posted the following:

"It was the Dollar General Store. I looked in 3 that are in my area and 2 had the deluxe star wars figures, but I could only find one clone trooper with bike. The Dollar stores that got these figures got star wars puzzles a couple weeks before the figures. The following is what I found at the 2 Dollar stores.I only got the Clone Tropper one. All were deluxe figures for $2

ANAKIN SKYWALKER w/Lightsaber Slashing Action
DARTH TYRANUS w/ Force Flipping Action
MAVE WINDU w/Blast-Apart Battle Droid
OBI-WAN KENOBI w/Force Flipping Action
ANAKIN SKYWALKER w/Force Flipping Action
Clone Trooper with Speeder Bike"

Has anyone else seen these guys at their Dollar general?

I would really love to know.

Saga '02-'04 / Skirmish of Carkoon playset?
« on: January 22, 2004, 03:02 PM »
I dont know if we had any news about this before, but the March Issue of Toy Fare lists this in their INCOMING! section.

"a Skirmish on Carkoon set (with Han, Jabbas Skiff Guards and a cannon) at Toys 'R' Us"

Any news on this if I missed it would be nice.

Saga '02-'04 / Frustrations of displaying your figures...
« on: January 18, 2004, 05:16 PM »
Today, I was set to put up brackets for a shelf to display my clone wars stuff, in a diorama display.

Directly above the said shelf, was the rest of my star wars toys. There were about 75 various figures/parts on the shelf.

My friend who was in my room thought the shelf with all the toys looked like it was off balance on the brackets, and he decided to move it over a few inches, and proceded to spill all of my figures and various accessories on top of my radiator. After I cleaned them up, I could not get several parts and pieces from behind the radiator.

Now, has anyone else had a similar problem displaying figures, or when you are working near them?

Other Toy Lines / Shock and Awe
« on: November 22, 2003, 03:01 PM »
Ever gone into a toy store, and seen some one litteraly CLEAN OUT the entire section, and product name of a certain thing?

Take for instance, a few weekends ago, I went to Crossgates Mall, to pick up a few SW items I had called in about.

I got in, and the whole 2 pegs of the toys I wanted were cleaned out. I found the fella I spoke to on the phone, and he said, some guy just came in and bought them all. Every single one. Doubles and all.

Take Tickle-Me Elmo too. I went to try and get one of those, for my baby sister, and wow...I was amazed at the behavior of some people in the toy isles. Couples were litteraly buying the un-purchased doll from one another.

Ever see anything that certainly made you amazed at how some people behave in stores, or odd customer habits?

Other Toy Lines / Jurassic Park Toys
« on: November 20, 2003, 01:51 PM »
As some of you may, or may not know, Jurassic Park is my main toyline that I collect on a regular and constant basis. I have been collecting Jurassic Park memoribilia since 1993 when it first came out. I still remember my first piece of JP Merch. a Jurassic Park Coloring book, and after that, a trip to McDonalds, where I got a plastic JP Cup.

When I say I collect Jurassic Park, I also collect The Lost World: Jurassic Park, and Jurassic Park /// toys, and all their filler lines.

I also do Dioramas with my Jurassic Park toys, make customs, and I am also a big part of the ever growing JP toy collectiong community. I was around at InGenNet before it passed, and now I am a moderator at www.JPToys.com as well.

Some of my customs, dioramas, and toy reveiws can be found there.


So, did, or does anyone else here collect Jurassic Park toys, or have a particular toy they liked?

Discuss! :)

Now onto the grime thing:

Watto's Junk Yard / Odd habits
« on: August 10, 2003, 01:05 PM »
Anyone have any strange or odd habbits?

I myself have a habbit of only using one napkin at a time when I wipe my hands. I always sleep on my stomach, and when I eat, I will go through at least 2 glasses of beverage. How about you all?
