The Vintage Collection / Re: Hasbro Weekly Q and A
« on: March 30, 2007, 06:40 PM »
The latest Hasbro QnA has been posted...

- Details on the 2007 30AC Bespin Han Solo!
- IG-88's articulation?
- Why can't Mace sit down?

Consider this Han Solo fanboy very pleased to hear that we are, in fact, getting an improved Bespin Han Solo.   :)

Does anyone know if Obi/Durge is also shipping in the RoJ cases?

The Obi-Wan & Durge 2-pack is set to ship again in the Wave 3, Revision 1 case, but it is still only 1x per case.

I'd like to see a pic of the kubrick cantina band when someone finally puts the set together.

I saved this pic from Adam (Sithbaker) a while back:

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: McQuarrie and Other Concept Figures
« on: March 30, 2007, 11:15 AM »
Man, looking at the first 3 waves, it really looks like Hasbro is limiting the concept figures...

McQuarrie Stormtrooper:
- 1x per case in Wave 1, Revision 0
- 1x per case in Wave 1, Revision 1
- 1x per case in Wave 2, Revision 1

McQuarrie Fett:
- 2x per case in Wave 2, Revision 0
- 1x per case in Wave 2, Revision 1

McQuarrie Chewbacca:
- 1x per case in Wave 3, Revision 0
- 1x per case in Wave 3, Revision 1

I wonder if they think they won't sell as well, with them being EU/concept figures and all?

Granted, things can (and often do) change when they start pumping out filler cases later this summer, but given what we've seen so far with those first 6 case assortments, it's not looking like we're going to see the Concept figures in huge numbers


For comparison, take a look at the Galactic Marine and Airborne Clones numbers through those same 6 case assortments... 

Galactic Marine:
- 2x per case in Wave 1, Revision 0
- 2x per case in Wave 1, Revision 1
- 1x per case in Wave 2, Revision 1
- 2x per case in Wave 3, Revision 0
- 2x per case in Wave 3, Revision 1

Airborne Clone:
- 2x per case in Wave 1, Revision 0
- 2x per case in Wave 1, Revision 1
- 1x per case in Wave 2, Revision 1
- 1x per case in Wave 3, Revision 0
- 2x per case in Wave 3, Revision 1

It definitely looks like Hasbro knows the Army Builders are out there as there are tons of those two compared to the Concept figures...

I see where they tried to force them into past scenes, and that was very well done, but I don't get how they added much to the story - at least not yet.  ;)

I thought the big reveal there was that Paulo had found the entrance to and had been wandering around in the tunnels.  That was how he got the walkie-talkie, how he hid the diamonds in the Pearl station toilet, how he saw Ben and Juliet talking about Jack.  Now we know the tunnels are still there and there is an access point for the Losties...

On another note, I was disappointed that the whole "Billy Dee" on LOST appears to be nothing more than a 2 minute cameo.  Was that it?  Lame.    :-\

Considering both the East and the West are too volitile still to even know what the match-ups will be, yeah it's too soon for me to make any bold predictions...  ;)

Kal'Falnl C'ndros is an interesting choice and probbaly one i will buy just becuase it is very different. I think this one is going to be a case by vase basis.

Um...

Kal'Falnl C'ndros



A giant chicken?  I'm leaning towards "early AFD joke"... I wonder how folks are going to take it?

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: 30AC TRU Exclusive TIE Interceptor
« on: March 29, 2007, 03:54 PM »
Just a reminder that Hasbro said the following about the TIE Interceptor...

Quote from: Matt on January 12, 2007, 05:52 PM
Will we see a TIE Interceptor with the new, more accurate, center pod - the improved center cockpit TIE pod that has been released on the standard TIE Fighter the last couple of times? If so, would it have the old 2-piece hatch or the newest, 1-piece, side-opening hatch seen on the upcoming white TIE Fighter? (AF, 01/26/07)

If we do another TIE Interceptor release (and it's high on our "wish list" for an exclusive release), then we would use the new pod with 1-piece hatch from the new white TIE fighter release.

So, if and when this arrives, it should have the same cockpit as the 30AC White TIE Fighter... unless of course they screw it up.   :P

I hope I'm just seeing things but well the unlit lightsaber hilt, which Luke has, does that look like Darth Vader's lightsaber hilt?

Hasbro said in the Q&A a couple weeks ago that they know it's the wrong hilt for Luke (both this one and the Wave 2 Yavin Luke), but it's, and I quote, "a hilt that gets us pretty close. It's something that we are aware of and will be looking at for future releases.

So, if I'm reading that image correctly, it looks like Book 7 ends with Harry and Voldemort staging a summer concert-in-the-park together...  ???


Either that, or maybe Harry and Voldie end up going on tour together...
