Is anyone surprised that these are actually sitting on the shelves?

Right on!

Collect All 92! / Re: Vintage Figures Which Have Not Been Updated

At Hasbro's pace of 2 per year, it could be another 4-5 years before they complete the vintage updates.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Using the power of the repaint for good, not evil.

With very few exceptions, I think re-paints only work on the droids and clones. The idea behind the wookies is admirable, but it just doesn't work for me.
Repainting Ewoks, I don't know. It might work better if they had more than one generic body to repaint.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Battle of Tatooine Wave

Great wave! Sure we're bound to be getting comm tech Han Again, but the new R5 D4, Hem and even Garinden are exciting choices for me. Can't wait!
I also can't wait to see the new Hammer Head. The POTF2 one was just too big.

Nice cheep wave for me. I'll only be buying nine figures total, two each of the new ones and one each of the repacks.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Battle of Geonosis Wave
« on: October 18, 2005, 07:24 PM »Strage that this wave doesn't do much for me,
Me neither. Good to see another carded AOTC clone so I cna get some more an non-EE prices. The Commando is interesting. I'm happy for all the EU fans and I just may pick a few to army build.

Interesting. Although I'm all for a gunner, he seems out of place. Watch him be a POTF2 Gunner head and an officer body. 
Chirpa and Jerjrror are excellent choices, but the repack of Jedi luke seems misplased unless it's the final duel one.

Glad we're getting to hear relable data on these waves. Not bad for a prequel set.

I'm diggin' it. I pretty much agree with everyone's general assesment.
The repacks are pretty good choices. You know the Vader is going to move, and so will the Snowtrooper. Really, the only potential pegwarmer is Reaken. Good case. Should sell well.
So far, my wallet is giving a big sign of relief. only 14 figures between two waves, 7 are rehashes and only two are army builders, although I will only get one extra Snowtrooper since I'm not thrilled with the current sculpt.

WM really hasn't gotten the Collection 2 stuff yet, and with DVD release and X-mas coming up, Hasbro is going to have to shipping something in the way of basic figures. I suppose, there still could be earlier waves waiting for distrubution, but I'm hoping that this last wave will not be a difficult as previous last waves.

Has anyone seen the shelf price marked at $12.99. I haven't see this in the several Targets I've seen the end cap at.
Is the price marked in the add?

Has anyone noticed that their Target boarding on Walmart stupid for this current sale? In a Target both in NC and in CA, I noticed that the regular basic figure price was $4.88. The sale/price cut price was $5.03 and the actual scanned price was $4.03. You would think someone would pay attention.

It's a time of morning for PSU, ND and FSU fans. The PSU game was undiscribable and the USC game wasn't to far off from what I saw of it.

I would definately agree, mainly because while I was visiting on the east coast, I got to see my good friend's son's figure collection. He's 5 and his figures were well played with. Most were missing limbs and hands were broken off.
