Continuing 2013's trend of no new characters!

Galactic Hunter's facebook page has photos of 2013's Class 2 vehicles and their boxes. (SSG has photos, too).

Slave 1 is a smaller one-seater. The Fighter Tank is new and smaller, the smaller hatches that opened on the original no longer do. Now only one pilot fits in the center and one in the top hatch.

Obviously no break off wings on the Jedi Starfighter. I won't miss those.

1 new figure. 501st Jetpack Clone Trooper and also R2-D2 using the CW B-A-D sculpt.

And 4 repacks (Anakin, Obi-Wan, phase 2 rex, R2-D2 and Battle Droid)...from what I could tell. That's wave 1. Looks like Rex might have a new gatling gun.

Now we know the A-Wing pilot is a human.

How utterly boring.

No "bonus" Phase 2 helmet with Rex or standard trooper helmet with the Clone Pilot. Bah.

We get Jango's helmet with Mace. Is Jango's head in it?  :o Or is it just the one from CW with the bomb inside?

Smaller class 2? What? Is that what Hasbro said or did someone misinterpret them?
Already limited by what they can do, and they shrink it? So is that a new fighter Tank that's smaller? Doesn't make sense...cuts back on what they can reissue (is there anything to reissue that's smaller...Luke's sandspeeder?). They are gonna Battle Pack that assortment out of existence.


Deluxe "class 1" with two figures included? Again...wha...? Won't that raise prices on those?

The MTT one is interesting. The Yoda one is goofy.

So was the sandtrooper shown actually for Movie Heroes? He's holding some big vacuum cleaner gun.

I get the impression collector's sites are suffering from all this mess. When store reports...individual store reports from a certain part of the country are news...well, things are messed up all around.

"Hey, wave 5 was found in Boise, Idaho."

Heck, I'll book a flight there.

Who is the light green tinged clone on display with the vintage/DF figures?


Badly painted AOTC Clone Commander (Legacy wave 2) or a Clone Sergeant.

Doesn't explain why the stores with empty pegs refuse to stock any more of any waves. But that's the damned stores.

1809
Saw an ebay listing for Princess Kneesa...up to $20 so far. Half the cost of the set. Really?

2-Pack price info

$14.99 each. Not bad for current prices.

Dropship in this one

Looking at his profile, he's in Australia...maybe that explains the dropship.

Got some Jawa droid factory parts free at a yard sale today. Most of the legs have ripped pegs, sadly, the parts don't hold up well in that regard.  There were actually hoses, though.

A pegless R5-D4 leg and an R2 leg, too...from the actual figures.

They'd release the exact same figure from  the Legacy collection, but with the accessory from the POTF Millenium Falcon carrying case version....and then say it was a mix up and never correct it.

It's way too easy to be pessimistic these days.  :P

Saw the one Ewok set at TRU today and skipped it due to gash like mold flaws on Teebo's chest.  I hate when that happens. But at $40, I am gonna be that picky and wait for the next shipment (which won't happened...I missed the boat... :( )

Pilots set looks worse in person.

Defend Kamino battlepack at TJ Maxx for $13. They are still shipping those 2011 battle packs. Had 2 Geonosis ones, as well. And some more of the AOTC vintage wave.

Marshalls had the Sentinel with Wolverine for $30. If any one is looking for those.

I like how some Ebay sellers want $20 to $30 for Blitz by himself, but you can get  the battle pack for probably that or less than that. I guess they never care if they sell anything or hope a sucker comes along...years later. Me, when I sell stuff I usually want it gone. Same with craigslist. I sold some Monster High dolls my dad got in a  lot at an auction for pretty cheap last Xmas. Maybe too cheap...but they sold and were gone. I had money. All these bozos who never sell their junk because they think its gold....they probably give up and throw it away.

Yard sale finds: Bunch of incomplete junked ships. A CW Jabba with no arms. Homing Spider Droid with no leg tops or weapons. TRU Hailfire with no weapons. TRU Imperial V-Wing with no missiles or wings. Utapau Obi-Wan starfighter with no missiles or canopy...Grievous fighter without...well, you get the idea. I think some kid was told he had to sell his SW stuff and made sure everything was useless!  :P
