Collect All 92! / Re: Rebel Soldier (Hoth Battle Gear)
« on: June 20, 2010, 01:50 AM »
It was a pretty easy custom to swap heads between the Vintage Rebel Soldier and the Vintage Rebel Commander.  I don't think any other Vintage Figures' heads were formed the same way.

I look at it as celebrating Star Wars collecting lore.  Besides, it's not without precedent...remember the ROTS Early Bird packs?

Someone has created a "working lightsaber".

So who is going to add this baby to their collection?   :D

I'm glad this series is going to continue.  It should do better with a Christmas release.

Wow.  I just wish it wasn't an MMO.

Guess we now know how Galen could still be "alive".

I think it will work pretty well from a story stand-point.  I'm looking forward to this game.

The Legacy Collection / Re: Legacy Wave 13 - Expanded Universe
« on: June 12, 2010, 02:03 PM »
Finally got this wave from EE.  Great set, not a bad figure among them!

(Except some of the repacks...why do we keep getting shirtless Maul?)

Collect All 92! / Re: Rebel Commander
« on: June 9, 2010, 12:24 AM »
Oddly enough...I had two Rebel Commanders and one Rebel Soldier in my collection as a kid (actually...still have them).

I like the new version, although the stance is kind of wide.  Still looks good on the Hoth Shelf in my collection though.

Now we'll never get the Funeral Pyre with Qui-Gonn set.   :(

Collect All 92! / Re: Luke Skywalker (Hoth Battle Gear)

As with vintage Luke Pilot, this version of Luke became a generic rebel officer in my ranks.

If it hasn't already, this will definitely get them talking about expanding the rules for video review.

Collections / Re: Where Does Your Collection Reside?
« on: June 3, 2010, 11:51 PM »
I definitely have a lot of things packed away.  With a major reorganization going on in other parts of the house, just about all of the stuff I don't display is now residing in the attic....basically all my carded figures are up there!

My collection room is relatively unchaged, although I've moved a couple of items around, updated some figures, etc.

In a word....waterslide.   :D

The Vintage Collection / Re: Boba Fett Mail-Away Offer?
« on: June 3, 2010, 11:46 PM »
To be a true vintage tribute, the mail-away Boba Fett should not be carded.

No, that wasn't a factor.  Retailers told us it was, but TRU was just robbing us blind.  Our price has been pretty much stable since the POTJ days, so whenever that was.  The dollar dropped post POTJ and didn't really rise much until after ROTS with no effect on pricing at all.  2002 was when the dollar bottomed out at that 2/3 ratio you mention.  We were as much as $0.10 more than the US dollar and there's been no effect on price. 

That was the summer I drove through Canada when I left Alaska.  Dude, trying to figure out what I was paying in gas with the both the conversion from gallons to liters plus the money conversion!  I have a degree in Math and thought my head might explode!   ;D
