I will probably get a couple to give Cody a few troops.

I'm now kicking myself for never picking up an airborne trooper or two.  I'm sure they will be re-released though.

I got 4-LOM as a mail-a-way figure as a kid.  I always had him as a cool alien bad-guy who the alliance had to fight after Bib Fortuna made a deal with the Imperial remnant and 4-LOM was always good at breaking into the Alliance base.  (I had to come up with some scenario that had even armies).

I think the C-V homage to the "error" firgure is a good representation of the vintage figure while the TLC version is a good representation of the movie character.  The only thing I would change is the trechcoat like Jesse said.

I received my Baba Fetts in the mail today.  The cards are slightly bent, but nothing a protecto-pak can't cure!

Mine were double-boxed.  Was that the same as the first go around or could that be the improvement?

I picked up Wicket, Luke and another Gammorean today.

The Luke is great...although an articulated chest (ala AOTC Obi-Wan) would have been great...although it probably would have hurt the sculpt.  Minor gripe.

I'll have to get another Wicket to display in his "Frodo" garb.  I really like the ball-jointed hips!

I will need two more Gammoreans for my Jabba's palace display.

I found three of these figures: Ackbar, Woof and the Gamorean Guard.

All three are excellent!

BTW...has anyone seen the Wedge figure yet?  I want two of him.

I'm looking forward to seeing it, but not sure when due to a 7 week old baby.

All Jedi figures would come super articulated (absolutely no swivel jointed elbows) with softgood skirt pieces.

I'm not.  Nor will I see the sequels.  Although it was visually stunning....the story was pretty crappy and predictable.

Nice work Name!

I recently finished a minor project.  Cora had chewed up the drywall in the window seat in our front window.  I decided to replace the window sil with wood instead of the drywall sil that was there.  My neighbor talked me into just covering it with extra wood slats from our hardwood floors.  I went one better and purchased an extra piece of stair nose that matched.  Cut the wood to fit, glued them together and viola....instant window sil!

I'll post some pictures soon.

My guess, story wise, is that Boba Fett intercepts them and frees Vader before they make it to Dantooine.  They never discussed the location in front of Vader.

The 30AC 4-LOM is still a good figure, but many of them had lop-sided legs...  I never have seen the new Vintage COllection figure out of the package, but did they fix the legs?  The TVC figure's paintjob is pretty clean too, and that's not cool either.  4-LOM was obviously pretty rusty for some reason.  He's like the 93 Cavalier of the Star Wars universe.

I did not get the 30 AC version, but the TVC version I have does not have that problem.
