The Vintage Collection / Re: Target DPCI #s
« on: March 7, 2007, 05:18 PM »
I made a few updates...

- I updated the format a bit at the request of some folks so the numbers are all up front now...

- I added the 30AC non-exclusive Battle Pack DPCI (#087-06-1707) back to the list, I'm not sure why it went missing.

- Also, these are being "retired" from the first post since they are no longer active (just leaving them here for posterity):
   Skirmish at the Senate Battle Pack:  087-06-0863 - $19.99*
   Mace Windu's Squadron Battle Pack:  087-06 1797 - $19.99*
   Kit Fisto's Jedi Starfighter:  087-06-1798 - $19.99*

Marvel

Civil War of course is the big deal right now, and although the delays have been annoying, I have enjoyed it and I'm looking forward to seeing how it wraps up at this point.  There are a number of rumors, many of which I hope don't pan out.

Brian, now that it's over, what did you think of Civil War?  I was tempted to pick it up, but never did...


Oh and...

I grabbed this one at Target yesterday:



Felt kind of strange to be buying a movie about the boy who never grew up at the same time I was buying a pile of Hasbro action figures...  :P

We have received about 80% of our order on wave 1, and Hasbro has given us the green light to ship (this wave was originally scheduled to have a 3/24 shelf date). So, we will ship all preorders at least 1 case, and allocate multi case orders at this point."

Weird.  I've heard/read that Hasbro has a 3/24 street date assigned to the SpiderMan 3 toys, but that's the first I've read/heard about it being applied to the Star Wars 30AC stuff...

And with that, we're done.

Seriously...  ::)

Into 7th and looking to make a real run for that #6 spot.   :)

6th.   :)

Now my team just has to keep playing well so I stay out of the bottom three for good...  :-X


Looks like hanging onto Zetterberg is paying huge dividends finally - he's now second on my team behind only Lecavelier with 93 points.

How's Zetterberg working out for you now Rob?   :P

Oh good, it's starting already.

I was hoping we could get at least get through 2007 before worrying about whether or not Johan will be here in 2009.    ::)

I guess he's right though.  The Twins are better off hoping he'll take a 4-year, $70mil extension now than waiting for him to hit the free agent market in 2009 and having to pay $20+mil a year...  :-\

I remember a number of scenes with both Luke and Mara Jade together in the trade paperback for SOTE.  Luke's in his black Jedi gear with some tan vest, and Mara Jade's got some kind of hat and goggles on.  In that regard, I'm wondering if we might just get a straight reissue of the POTF2 EU figure of Mara Jade.


Um... yeah like the other guys were saying that was Heir to the Empire and not Shadows of the Empire:

Kubricks / Re: 2007 Medicom Collector Club Box Set
« on: March 5, 2007, 12:00 PM »
Odd, I can't find the thread/posts either.

They are all mixed in the other threads.  Things sort of got spread out when we split up the old thread to set up the new forum.  We can just use this thread going forward to talk about the set...



The set was supposed to ship in April to those who ordered from the Medicom Club.

Like Madcow said, the only place I've seen with a pre-order is BigBadToyStore.com and they are also saying an April date, but I'd expect May is more likely.

Man, I have no idea what to think.   :-\

I see like 3-4 implications/possibilities from that ending.

1. She's really dead.  Really, really dead.  (however unlikely it seems)

2. She's a cylon and can be "downloaded" into a new body in a future episode.  I'm sure this is what they want you to be thinking right now...

3. Leoben/The cylons really were out there in the clouds and they plucked her from the ship/debris right before it was crushed/exploded.  Now she's a prisoner.  Kind of out there, but possible.

4.  Crazy theory #4?  It could be ANYTHING I suppose at this point...


I've read waaaaay too many comic books to just accept that she's dead.  No body = not dead.   :P

They could go in any of these directions I guess.  I really hope that it isn't the end of her story because it seemed like a waste to kill her off right now... if she's really dead then what was her destiny? 

Just have to wait and see I guess.  :-\

I subtract the old stuff I sell, because I see it the same way I see a trade.  I get rid of an old item and get something in return for it. 

I'm trading old stuff for money, and then I trade that money for new toys.  I do only deduct the cash for selling stuff IF I use that cash to buy something.  If the cash from selling old stuff is used for something else, then I do not count it.

Looks like I got three off my list from last year - new Hoth Han, new Snowtrooper, and Zev.  My updated list is below...

The Empire Strikes Back
1. Derek "Hobbie" Klivian (Snowspeeder Pilot Gear)
2. Zev Senesca  Luke Skywalker (Snowspeeder Pilot Gear) [resculpt]
3. Lt. Wes Janson (Snowspeeder Pilot Gear)
4. Captain Lorth Needa
5. Black Bespin Guard
6. Cal Alder
7. 4-LOM [resculpt]
8. Ice Cream Maker Guy - for Scott  :-*
9. SA Snowtrooper  Luke Skywalker (Medical Frigate)
10. SA Hoth Han Solo  Princess Leia (Medical Frigate)

So Wave 5 is AOTC. What is rumored?

Almost every rumor list we've seen has these listed for the AotC wave -

Wave ? - Attack of the Clones

Clone Trooper
Padme Amidala (Theed Dinner)
Jango Fett with Poncho
Voolvif Monn
Destroyer Droid with Shield
Concept Rebel Soldier

Also, according to the rumor lists, this should be wave 8 or 9 and not wave 5 unless Hasbro moves things around.

I think their EU names are Lu-Lu Bean (Cloud City Fashionista) and Ann-Tay Lor (Bespin Hipster). 

Definitely needed to fill out those Bespin dioramas.   :D
