The Vintage Collection / Re: Drop in Collector Interest/Figures?
« on: February 5, 2010, 01:19 PM »
I think the discussion is moot.  Figures have not sold as well in the past few years, so there is no way retailers are going to carry four lines of figures.  The Clone Wars is their best seller, we already know there is a vintage line on the way, so that just leaves one spot left for some kind of Legacy/Legends line.  Further out, we'll have the TV series figs, the Clone Wars, and some combined form of Legacy figures.

I remember this ebay seller sold an exact one a few months back. I was the only bidder then last few seconds I was out bidded. Looked at the history of the other buyer and no record/interest in kubrick figures. After a few hours I was offered a second chance offer to buy the figure. I reported this to eaby of shill bidding and have kept a close eye on this seller

Did you buy the second chance offer?  Will be interesting to see if that happens again...

Gack, I check HTS daily and haven't seen them for order. I check all the big three T, TRU, WM and none have any new MU stuff. sigh

HTS has had them a couple of different times now.  Are you searching for the right thing?  I almost went in on an order with Dressel, but I only want two and figured $17 each with shipping was still too pricey.   I'm starting to wonder if these will be tough to find at retail though given that some Targets are clearancing out their comic packs and basic marvel figs.   :-\  Glad to hear they were found at a Target recently though!

I'm sold on one for sure after the description on the front page.  6 figs in the cockpit?  Wow.  Will definitely get a second or third at a good price, though the $100 price point seems very fair to me.

FYI - My local Target had the Secret Wars Comic Packs on clearance for $3.50 today.  Only 3 left, so I grabbed 'neto/Spidey and 2x IM/Arachne.

Best Price I've see for the L-slot Fett chase figure:

$102 shipped L-Slot Fett

Assuming it's not bid up.  That is a great starting price though.

That's actually kind of a cool custom.

What's odd about all of that is that Desmond shouldn't have been on the plane regardless. That's one heck of a coincidence that he never made it to the island and then ended up on the exact same flight as everyone else.

We only have a small bit of info, so we have no idea how/why Des ended up on the plane... but I think that's sort of the point that he did.  Even if you change time with some drastic event, these characters still have some sort of destiny to be tied together - Jack still meets Locke, Jack meets Sayid, Locke meets Boone, Kate meets Saywer, Kate meets Claire, etc.

Maybe instead of Jack/Desmond first meeting at that stadium while running, this was the way fate introduced them?  Just have to sit back and enjoy the ride until we get some more info...

Interesting - I was thinking they had already met at the stadium and that's why Jack thought Des looked familiar.  I hope there is something more in store for their destiny other than they would have met no matter what.  Seems like a 5 minute meeting in an elevator or on the plane is a big change from the much more involced relationships on the island.  I'm starting to get nervous about the wrters' ability to tie all this up to my satisfaction with just one season left.   :-\  Like you said - guess we have to just sit back and enjoy the ride!

Without the island/swan station, Desmond's boat apparently never crashed there - did he make it back to Penny in this timeline?

What's odd about all of that is that Desmond shouldn't have been on the plane regardless.  That's one heck of a coincidence that he never made it to the island and then ended up on the exact same flight as everyone else.  I'd almost guess that he did his time travel trick to get on the flight, but it didn't seem like he was working towards any real purpose - at least not anyhting they let on to. 

- people sitting in different spots on the plane
- Shannon staying in Australia instead of going on the plane
- where's Mr. Eko, Libby, AnnaLucia?  Not on the plane anymore?

I didn't notice they were in different spots - good catch!  Was it everyone or who did you notice specifically?  I thought about the "Tailies" we didn't see as well, but figured they were in the aft section and that's why we missed 'em.

Oh, and I do have to say that the MIB/FakeLocke/Smokey was a bad-ass - killing Jacob's bodyguards and then punking Richard and dragging him off... not to mention the temple (finally the "taken" people plot point comes back) and all the stuff that happened with Sayd (dead/alive).  I really can't wait to see what happens next when smokey comes calling.  :)

Amen to that - O'quinn makes a pretty scary bad guy.  Interesting to note that in the interview on Jimmy Kimmel last night, the writers said something has possessed Sayid, but possibly not Jacob...

WTF?  How can they all be in two places at once?

Nice to see Desmond and Charlie though.

I think one is a flash forward or flash backward.  Maybe the version of them on the plane is the end of the show, assuming they find a way to reset everything?  It also just ocurred to me tonight that the dude impersonating Locke must be the guy who takes mystery forms on the island (Jack's dead dad, Echo's dead brother, Kate's horse, etc.)

It's good to see that Hasbro's finally getting around to repainting some clones.  Good idea.

I think that's a great idea.  They could just change the paint aps slightly and give them different names to create a whole new character!  I hope they start making this a regular practice.

Down to my last dozen Kubes Dale - that's only one per month now...

Until the Deluxe series drops  ;)

Plus whatever else comes out this year... lol!  ;D

Okay, so I need to acquire all the remaining chases before anything new comes out....  ;)
