Title: RotS DVD 3-Packs!
Post by: Jeff on August 22, 2005, 04:21 PM
Not sure who they belong to yet, but If I had to take a guess, I'd say they will be at Wal-Mart for the DVD release, just like the OT and CW sets were...

Yes, folks it's another variant of the 3-Pack Clones, only this time in a fancy box!

The Jedi Set looks like it has the "Battle Arena" Versions...

And yes, a Sith box of repacks as well!

The Anakin is definitely from the Battle Arena (I can tell because of that disturbing arm pose), but I'm not so sure about the Mace and Obi-Wan.  I'm fairly sure that the Obi-Wan is the same figure that was packed in with the Mustafar playset (I could be wrong though).

The Mace is curious because it almost looks like the Episode I Mace figure with a purple lightsaber.   ???

Straight from my buddy Red5sixx's ebay auction pics over on www.bluedottoyz.com. Wild, man. You Jedidefender researchers waste no time!

Oh, and that is indeed the Ep. 1 mail away Mace. I've held these babies in my hands and they are beautiful. But then, I'm a sucker for boxed sets.

Yeah, it does sort of look like that Mace with a purple saber... strange to drag that mold out for this set.   ???

I'll definately pass on the Jedi and Sith sets, but much like everyone else I'm sure, I'll definitely try to grab one of the Clone Box sets.  That 3-pack looks like scalper bait for SURE.   :-\

The Clone set just looks like more of the Deluxe clones with a new paint job.  I'm a sucker and have been buying them but I have some of the AOTC sets open and the figures aren't that great.  The kneeling clone is the best sculpt and the prone just misses.

I passed on the Trilogy sets and I'll pass on these as well.  At least the Jedi and Sith sets anyway.  I'll decide on the Clone set when I see it.

As for that Mace, that sculpt is 6 years old and it's still, arguably, the best.  The Jedi Council set isn't bad but the Saga versions suck and the ROTS version still hasn't nailed it yet.

Guess I can kiss another $96.65 of my money away on more repacked garbage...  Granted, it's my own fault, I know.  Actually, it looks like only the Clones are "new", so I'll only have to buy one opener set, which will drop the total down to a mere $64.43.  :P

But considering how well the prior DVD 3-pack sets sold (at least around here - sold out in a day or so), I guess this comes as no major surprise.  Easy money for Hasbro.

Really bizarre to see a 6 year old Mace pop up in the mix there though.  Of course, these could just be mock-ups...?  Or are they really the final product?  Do you know, DD?

Well I will pick these up. I never picked up the others as I never saw the Clone Wars ones and traded off my OT ones. That is if I see these at all.

What is that Mace figure?  It looks different than the other Maces I have seen.  Or I just can't remember them that much.  Is that Ep1 Mace withough the cloak?

Anyway I won't be buying these but the clone pack is not that bad IMO.  I will be buying other clonetrooper items besides this one.  At least these packs tend to go fast when they put them out.  Thankfully they are usually spread out anywhere but the toy aisles.  It seems like Wal-Mart liked to put them all over the store which is cool since they don't clog up the current pegwarmers.

I'm fairly sure (going by the pictures) that it is the regular carded Episode I Mace Windu without the cloak and a purple lightsaber.    The head could be different, but I can't tell from the photo, but it looks identical to the E1 Mace to me.

As for the Clones, is it just me, or is the one on the right a mirror image of the one on the left?  I don't mean literally, but it's like they just did a negative impression of the mold and sculpted it the exact opposite direction or something.

I agree with Scott's guess here.

As for the "mirrored" Clone there, I think it's just the same exact Clone as on the opposite side of the package, just flipped around the opposite direction to look different.  I'm guessing they decided they didn't want to go with the Clone in the prone position from the Clonetrooper 3-packs, so they just doubled up on the standing one, to go along with the (old) kneeling one.
Title: Re: RotS DVD 3-Packs!
Post by: Darth Delicious on August 22, 2005, 08:55 PM
JediMAC: They're the final product. Hasbro just packed in the old Ep. 1 Mace, since it's the only moderately good one they ever did. Like I said, I've had these in hand...it's my friend's auction.

Look at the bright side though...although the figures are repacks, since they'll be at Wal-Mart, you're only looking at paying $9.96 per set. And all it'll cost is another little piece of your soul, for supporting the evil that is Sam Walton's unstoppable juggernaut.  ;)

I think that's a good decision.  Here's hoping these show up north of the border.  I'd buy a couple of the clone packs, non-articulated or not.  At least it's not just one with trim.

That is my favorite Mace figure of the bunch, but it's not like I'd be opening the packs aside from the clones anyway.

If I see them, I'll probably buy the clone set.  Like the others, I just can't seem to walk away from anything clonetrooper related (no matter how many times it is a repeat/repainted figure). :-\

Are they really going to be $9.96?  That's not a bad price for three figures!! I would have guessed $15-20 just because of the new packaging.

These don't bother me all that much. The past sets have been easy to get as long as you're at a Walmart that has the DVD display out on first thing Tuesday, and the price has been fair. The use of the DVD-style packaging is classy.I'll pick up an opener Clone set and a complete set to keep packaged.

That said, the figures are the worst of the offerings in these sets by a long shot.

Jedi Set: Whatever!!

Sith Set: This will be fine for me, because I never got the Palpatine or Vader, and I could use another Dooku.  Unless I break down and buy the Sith Evolution set, provided I ever see it.

Clone Set:  Sigh.

I don't have anything to add on the figure set front...I just wanted to point out that Spuffy's avatar is cute.

I guess I do have something to add...you know what would have MADE this set? A transparent "Emperor's Wrath" style Mace Windu, with injection molded skeleton.

Post by: Nathan on August 23, 2005, 12:08 AM
The clone set doesn't look half bad--even though those helmets are probably the stupidest variant yet, at least they ditched the prone/dead clone for another standing one.

Undecided on the Sith set.

Most likely pass on the Jedi.

BTW, Mace is the regular carded Episode I figure:

(http://www.rebelscum.com/episodeI/e1macecloakfrontnocloak.jpg)

The Mailaway Sneak Preview has a built-in cloak:

Unless they just swapped the arms or something....??

I paid $9.95 or so for the one I got (the Imperial one since I needed Palpy).  I recall that price because I was pleased to get Palpy and the Stormtrooper and what I just basically counted as a "free" Vader I didn't want.

You know what, I think you guys are right on the $10 per.

OK, yeah, you guys were definitely right on the $10 per, on both the OT and CW sets (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=6522.msg109237#msg109237).  Hopefully that stays the same.  Phew!  Don't know where I got that $15 idea from, but glad I was flat-out wrong, 'cause that puts another $20 back in my pocket!  8)

I was actually just editing my prior post to reflect that Jon, after finally getting off my lazy ass and actually looking it up in the CW forum.  ;)  $10 per (http://www.jedidefender.com/yabbse/index.php?topic=6522.msg109237#msg109237).  I can probably stomach that.

Title: Re: RotS DVD 3-Packs!
Post by: Brian on August 23, 2005, 09:00 AM
I'm not sure if I'll be picking these up or not, but I might get one.  The figures aren't anything overly exciting to me, since most of us already have them, but the price is quite good for someone who doesn't.  I have kind of liked the way these DVD packs have been packaged, and I might pick up at least one just for that.  I saw all three of the OT packs, and picked up the ESB one, and also saw the Clone Wars packs but didn't end up buying any of those.  The packaging on these looks kind of neat though, so we'll see.  They seemed to sell pretty well around here too, especially the OT DVD packs.  I did see a few of the CW packs get clearanced, hidden away on one of Wal-Marts "back" toy aisles.  Overall though, $9.96 for three figures isn't too bad of a deal, and the way they are displayed towards the front of the store with the DVD (when it is released), it is probably a good "impulse buy" for casual buyers/non-collectors.

For me - just like the DVD and Clone Wars packs - these sets will be one of the VERY few items where I only get one of each different pack (instead of my typical two). The figures are identical, I have no need to have a set of 3-packs opened.

I do like the artwork on the package. Thank goodness there isn't anything really "new" about these, otherwise people would probably be more upset about these coming out.

You're right Matt. The clone set does contain different figures than anything else we've seen so far.

Well crap.

I guess I am going to need to get two of at least the clone set.

Well - if it's any consolation, at our local WalMart stores the day the DVDs have come out, the past two sets were VERY easy to get.

The Clone Set was easier since there were only two, but with OT DVD set was odd 'cause some stores only received two different ones so it meant having to go to two stores to get all three.

Here's hoping the distribution is balanced and if you hit a WalMart at 7AM on November 1st there is a good number of all three (although, if they go heavy on the Clones, that would be smart)

These POS sets showwed up here tonight. They were an easy pass for me. The figures look horrible. The packaging is OK but there is way to much white, they should of had some kind of insert in the tray. The clones are just the Deluxe Clone 3-pack with some random gold lines on them. And the paint app on Obi-Wan's face is terrible.

I'm sure what happened is when they got them in, the stockers, who can't read which is why they work at Wal Mart, couldn't figure out what they were for, so they put them in the toy isle.

Now I'm just hoping that they do the same with the Animated 3 packs when Clone Wars Volume 2 comes out. Somehow I doubt they will  :-\

What will suck is if they leak out the CW sets early, like they're doing with the ROTS sets right now.  Guaranteed way to not find Cody.   :(

Well, I just got an email from Wal*Mart that the Clone DVD sets I ordered have been cancelled. Thanks again Wal*Mart.

YOU SUCK.

I got my set in the mail. I hope they offer the clone wars sets as well.

Forgive me, but I haven't been paying much attention...  Are there ANY differences whatsoever in the figures in the Jedi or Sith DVD 3-packs?  I nabbed two of each, but if they're identical to what's already come out before, then there's no need for me to have some openers if I've already got openers of these from before...

Pretty sure they're just rehashes, but if there's any differences that I'm missing (other than Vader's helmet being glued on), please LMK quick!  Otherwise, I'm returning my second sets of those tomorrow.  Thanks!

Arent the Obi-Wan and Anakin from the Mustafar playset?  The figs dont seem to be from the regular basic line.

Obi-Wan is. Anakin's from the Battle Duel thing or whatever the hell it was called. The things with the battle bases...

What is up with the left arm pose of that Anakin?  Weird...

Agreed and conidering this Anakin originally came with in a duel set with Count Dooku, it's almost like Anakin's just putting his left arm out there saying "go ahead, chop this one off too!" Very odd pose for a figure IMHO.
