Feedback / Nathan's (pka Valin Kenobi) feedback
« on: May 5, 2005, 10:18 PM »
Nathan bought a pile of loose figures from me in a sale/trade sort of deal for a couple of Target Clones I'll feed to a needy Canadian.

No worries when trading with Nathan! A+ in my book.   ;)

Hey Hasbro! / Please Give Us An AT-TE
« on: May 5, 2005, 12:24 PM »
Dear Hasbro,

Please make us a 3.75" action figure scale AT-TE.

We are in desperate need of one so that our Republic Forces have a wicked vehicle to blast away at the Separatists. With it, we could recreate the awesome battles of Revenge of the Sith.

Go ahead and pack it full of cool play features if you must (for the kids), but really do it up right.  Thank you.

Your Pal,
Jeff

Revenge of the Sith / TRU Holo Anakin?
« on: April 7, 2005, 11:23 PM »
Still a Rumor at this point, but the little birdies are singing...

Sounds like there will be a Holographic Anakin of some sort at TRU this summer/fall.  I imagine it will be a lot like Yoda where you buy something and get it for free or just buy it at Amazon.

Now the question is will it be a Holo Anakin from Ep3 (from a certain naming ceremony  ;)) or will it be more of a Spirit of Anakin from RotJ DVD?

Anyone else heard this through the rumor mill?  :-\

The Holographic craze continues... first The Emperor, then Yoda, now Princess Leia?

According to the Official Site Holographic Princess Leia is this year's Comic Con Exclusive figure!

Quote
Though StarWarsShop.com will not be offering items to purchase at Celebration III, fans will get to preview some of items featured or soon to be available at the site:
- Hasbro Holographic Leia Prototype (Comic-Con 2005 Figure) (StarWarsShop.com exclusive)

Look for Leia to show up at StarWarsShop.com after the convention season is over.

Watto's Junk Yard / Hyperspace Membership Kit 2005
« on: April 6, 2005, 11:54 AM »
Anyone else get this yet?

It showed up in my mailbox yesterday, but I didn't get around to opening it until today...  :-[

While the "Ewok Animation Cel" I got last year sucked (mine was just 3-4 blue and pink bubbles  ::)), at least it was a great idea to give us a unique collectible that you weren't going to get any place else.  This year's pack is full of "free stuff" aka advertisements and is pretty boring IMHO.

I got this "free stuff":
- Form Letter from GL (thanks for all the money, sucker!  :P)
- Hasbro "dangler" - aka a paper mobile like you made in 3rd grade arts and crafts
- Episode III LEGO poster - actually pretty cool poster
- Code 3 T-shirt iron-on - would be nicer if it didn't say www.code3.net across the front of it  ::)
- WotC Mon Cal mini - already have him...
- Vader window decal - ok, I guess
- Official 2005 Star Wars Fan Club membership card

And then these advertisements:
- GG Bust-Ups trading card - lame
- Sony Ep3 Soundtrack trading card - lame
- $50 coupon for Code 3 - lame
- 20% off coupon for SW Blinds - lame
- Darth Vader Check advertisement - lame

OK, so I did like the LEGO poster, that was kinda cool.  Also, the free WotC mini was nice, but I already have the Mon Cal guy. 

Other than the window decal and the membership card, everything else was a direct tie/advertisement to some licensee - Hasbro, LEGO, GG, WotC, Code 3, etc - and was trying to sell me something SW.

It would have been nice if they could have passed out "Droids" Animation Cels or something else lost in those vacuous LFL vaults.  I mean, it's nice they gave us something, but it just would have been nice if it was more than just ads for SW stuff...  :(

Power of the Force 2 / JediDefender Image Database Retrospective
« on: March 28, 2005, 11:41 PM »


We here at JediDefender are pleased to bring you a brand new weekly feature - The JediDefender Image Database Retrospective

Each week, we'll bring you brand new, brilliant high-res photos of the older Kenner/Hasbro Power of the Force 2 figures.  You probably haven't really looked at your old figures since you bought them, but after you see our pics you'll probably want to dig them out for another look. 

Today, we kick it all off with the nine figures in the initial Power of the Force 2 assortment - Ben (Obi-Wan) Kenobi, C-3PO, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia, R2-D2, and Stormtrooper!

Hope you enjoy these great high res photos!

Revenge of the Sith / Can You Break the Emperor's Code?
« on: March 28, 2005, 04:22 PM »
Yet another thing to complain about this weekend...  ::)

From Hasbro:

Can You Break the Emperor's Code? 

Quote
The Emperor's Code is hidden on each of the 3 STAR WARS EPISODE III REVENGE OF THE SITH Exclusives available at Wal-Mart, Target, and Toys "R" Us stores.

Locate the hidden code on each toy, figure out what it means, enter the code into the vault website and you could win an Emperor's Code Breaker T-shirt.  But more importantly, figure out The Emperoro's Code and you'll reveal the evil plan to take over the galaxy...

Does Hasbro actually expect any kids to get their hands on these 3 exclusives from Wal-Mart, Target, and TRU?  Seriously?

What the hell?  Whoopee!  I'm a giant nerd identified by my Emperor's codebreaker T-shirt!   :P

This totally rings of B-E-S-U-R-E-T-O-D-R-I-N-K-Y-O-U-R-O-V-A-L-T-I-N-E...  ::)

The Prequel Trilogy / Official Site Episode 3 Make Over
« on: March 21, 2005, 09:46 PM »
www.starwars.com

Wow!  I love the new main page skins!  Vader and the Imperial March - ooooh.   :)  Gen Grievous and the Droid Army music is groovy too!

Lotsa new pictures in there hidden amongst the character bios and story and planets descriptions.

Definately worth checking out, especially the new backgrounds taken from the upcoming Movie theater posters and such...

JD Sports Forum! / Steroids in Sports
« on: March 10, 2005, 11:53 AM »
OK, since this is bigger than just NFL or MLB or the Olympics, I thought I'd get us rolling on this topic in our new Sports Forum!

So, in recent 'Roids news, the US Congress is trying to get baseball players to testify on the subject:

MLB leaders plan to fight subpoenas

Do you think these guys should have to testify on the subject?

Is it in baseball's best interest to never find out if Bonds or McGwire or Sosa were on steroids?   :-\


I don't know how I feel about it.  If the players did it, it kinda sucks, but then again there was no testing for it - who knows what the right answer is?
