The Vintage Collection / Re: 2024 Last Figure Standing Poll

It's true.  But counterpoint, they make so few interesting characters that there's no shortage of highly sought after figures these days...

Agreed.  A Haslab thing that was waves of figures at whatever amount Hasbro needed to make it happen would almost definitely reach funding goals if it was unique and interesting figures.

I’ve had the Gaming Greats Jedi Survivor 3-Pack in a wishlist for most of the year figuring if it gets to like $20 I’d buy a few.  It’s been $28 for months and today has a red Prime Big Deal sticker next to it, still $28. lol.

Totally.  I wish there was a poll like this but ONLY with obscure rando's that don't have a good chance of getting made.  Show Hasbro which goofball background character we want the most.

I still can't believe that the most wanted figure has the potential to be a figure that we have a bunch of already.  Anakin, Threepio, Snowtrooper... Obi-Wan. 

I'd pick Luthen out of this list.

Nice, I was going to reply that I can't believe how fast you got it, and then remembered the whole thing with the brief early availability.

Could be, but then the question is did they mean to make it $60 or $100. :)

I can’t imagine they actually sold out that quick, surely Disney wants to sell them throughout the holiday season to parents and not just collectors.

I’d pick up a couple of extras but only if they’re still in stock when the holiday droids show up so they can ship for free.

The link isn’t working and I can’t find them.  Any chance it was listed in error?

Good grief.  At least you get a 7th droid for that price.

Kris Kristofferson and Pete Rose had a good run in to their 80s, but Dikembe was only in his late 50s.  Too young.

And talk about a good run - Jimmy Carter is about to turn 100!

Yeah, Mutombo is what I was reacting to... I'd heard about the others but not him.  Cancer sucks.

You guys cannot post about Jimmy Carter right ahead of his 100th birthday in this thread of all places.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Everything eBay! Scams, questions, etc...
« on: October 1, 2024, 10:22 AM »
That's pretty gross, and really it's the one big issue with eBay maybe outside of the fees - it's easy to steal.  It's getting to the point where I think that any expensive items I'll be taking extra photos and recording myself sealing the box up. 

I got the disputed item returned to me yesterday, and the buyer returned the swapped figures instead of the ones it should have come with.  So I uploaded photos of the incorrect item that was sent at their request and ultimately eBay ate the cost, letting me keep my money and still refunding the seller his.  I was surprised they were willing to do that.

The guy was insanely rude through the whole thing, and I know 100% that I didn't swap figures to scam someone for a few bucks with my 24 year old account that has top-rated seller status.  The only possibilities are that he swapped the figures, or Hasbro sent me a return that someone else had swapped and no one caught it.  I can't prove anything one way or the other and he left me negative feedback that they won't remove despite having done everything the way I always do everything on that site.

Good grief.  That’s awful.
