Other Collectibles / Re: Vintage (Topps) Star Wars Cards

« on: February 7, 2006, 07:09 PM »

I collect the cards, too. Most are put in binders now. The only thing is I did a lot of trading to get the ANH ones and I'm still missing some of the orange series and a lot of the stickers. I really havent' been active on the old stuff in a long time, though I did get the Sith sets the past year.

ps, if anybody's interested in trading in some cards, I'm game.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: TSC Recent Purchases

« on: January 24, 2006, 04:20 PM »

Went to a local Target... looks like they had put out 2 boxes of the Hoth wave just before I got there.

I picked up:

Veers (x2)
Snowtrooper (x2)
At-At Driver
Reeikan
Vader

Left R2 and the gonk behind. Got Derlin at a different Target a few days earlier... was the only Hoth guy on the pegs amid the Carkoon wave.

Hey Hasbro! / "Spider" Grievous

« on: January 14, 2006, 03:33 PM »

With Hasbro releasing the Flaming Grievous Target exclusive, why not produce Grievous that can "transform" into the 6-legged spider as he makes haste to escape Obi-Wan? It might make for an interesting figure if done right.

Passel Argente (New Sculpt)

I agree with some of those choices. I'd like to have them because they're all different alien species and they're the "baddies" that were played in a vicious game by Sidious. Senator Dork, as Argente is affectionately know by some, should have been made with the special lightsaber slash damage ala Masters of the Universe when it was released with the final 12... the same with the rest of the Separatist leaders taken down by Vader at Mustafar.

That would be an interesting figure... and have him or her come with that lava grappler thingie.

Just don't make it so the figure is permanently in that pose.

Hey Hasbro! / Re: NO CHASE FIGURES!!!

« on: January 14, 2006, 03:13 PM »

Yes, don't go the route of the dark side (greed) and throw in chase figures. I agree with my fellow JD members that it would severely affect people's collecting habits. Another thing, it is sometimes difficult to find certain mass produced figures because distribution is not totally wide-spread. I work for a toy store and I know that our store has never received certain waves of non-exclusive SW figures, whereas other stores in the area did. On the other hand, my store received around 20 case of the wave that had the illusive Shocktrooper in it... so you can see that if you begin with the "chase" figure routes, collectors in small metro areas may not even get to glimpse this so called figure.

I think I speak for all of us when I think there should be equal opportunity for all of us to find our beloved characters!

I cracked open one of my Carbonite Han figs and noticed that there is a 1 on the staff, I also have one with a 2 on it, so that makes 1,2,3,5 & 6 staff versions. Anyone have one with a 4 on it. (I hear 4 is the chase )

Checked mine out after you said this (and got my Internet up and running again)...

Guess what, I've got a 4.

(Doubt it means it's the rare one then)

If only we'd gotten an all-new skiff guard instead of Barada ...

I agree. I wish we'd have gotten some new Weequay. Hasbro could have done a variant on them as well for the two on the skiff.

Thanks Matt for hooking me up with the Twins and a couple 501sts!! Also, thanks for helping me with those 7 elusive cards to finish my Sith Widevision set and the chases.

Anyone complete their sets yet?? I'm missing 9 basic cards and a lot of the chases... guess I'm not going to worry too much about the chases.

« on: December 28, 2005, 08:43 PM »

I actually thought that they would have put this figure in with either Luke or Leia or both baby figures... guess I was wrong.

I agree with the others, though. The only droids I'd be interested in are 2-1B and FX-6 to complete a Imperial Rehab Center set.
