Our local Walgreens finally started getting in the new wave of 6" figures. I picked up a couple of extra TIE PIlots to quell my army building urges. I think I'm good now.

Does this mean the Saga Legends figures are going up to $8 too? F that noise.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: 'The Hobbit' movie

Finally saw it this past weekend and loved it. The pacing was great...did not feel like a 2.5 hour movie at all. I think it helped a lot being able to jump right into the action without a long build-up.

Agree with all the comments about the 3D HFR, I always see that version first but the rapid "closed-circuit TV-esque" movement is very distracting, much moreso than the first installment. I look forward to watching this at home on Blu-Ray.

Sad that this is the end of that world...Jackson did an amazing job breathing life into this universe over 6 films.

Sylvester Stallone announces 'Rambo 5' title

If it's anything like #4, I'm in. That was some epic graphic violence.

Hmmm....6" scaled Starfighter coming for Ep 7? (RS leaked list)

That thing is gonna be massive. I figured we would get a Dewback or Landspeeder before any of the bigger ships.

Edward Hermann

Gilmore Girls my arse! He'll always be best remembered as the creepy father-figure from Lost Boys!

Was getting worried I had missed out on clearanced Shadow Squadron sets @ Target but I was able to find 2 at the 2 farthest Targets on my search vector today. ($35 each - nice)

Once they took that thing off the website I figured it would become scarce quickly.

The Sequel Trilogy / Re: Star Wars: The Force Awakens (SPOILERS)

So...new Millenium Falcon unveiled. Other than the square radar dish does not seem all that wildly different to me. I was hoping for some flames on the side or a couple of new rear spoilers.

I do.  This was my first instance ever ( albeit as a bystander) of a potential cheating seller in that manner.  I find it curious.

Yeah, I do too. As a frequent buyer/seller this is not something I have experienced firsthand over the years (that I know of) so I find it curious as well. I hope it works out!

Got the Prison Gate and Tower building set for X-Mas...yay!

I'm all caught up until the next series of blind-bagged figures show up, no idea when that will be though.

The Clone Wars '08-'13 / Re: Recent Clone Wars Finds/Purchases
« on: December 25, 2014, 09:40 AM »
The December 25th Daily Deal at Entertainment Earth is up to 71% off a selection of The Clone Wars action figures and battle packs from Hasbro. 

15 different basic figures, four battle packs.  Old stuff, but some good army builders in there (BD, SBD, Droideka).

Link goes live at Midnight Pacific on 12/25 so I haven't seen the final prices yet, but thought I'd post now since I'll be busy tomorrow with family stuff.

Thanks Jeff! This was a rare EE sale I could actually jump on...picked up 2 battlepacks and 2 figures for $30 total, not bad at all.

I think it's cool to see these just as proof that there will be figures cycled in dynamically to the line outside of the previous 6 films. I thought they might wait longer to roll these out but I guess Hasbro wants to capitalize across multiple lines, which makes sense.

They appear to be well sculpted but none of them seem particularly interesting. Even the Sith guy looks less than imposing.

I just hope this kind of sudden character infusion doesn't hold us back from getting 6" stuff like Bib Fortuna, Dengar, Zuckuss, etc sooner rather than (years) later. At this rate it's going to take a long time to get through just the key OT characters.

Broke down and ordered Tacit Ronin off Amazon last week and as it turned out, I found him on the pegs today at my local TRU. (Yes, insane day for a toy run) My order arrived later this afernoon so looks like now I have an opener.  ;D

Hurray! I thought this would be a one-and-done type deal. I can't wait!
