The Legacy Collection / Re: Figure Releases per Year
« on: December 23, 2008, 10:33 PM »I am going to try putting a $30 a month limit because I know if I try to complete a line like I tried with TAC I will be broke. I just just wish hasbro would stick to 50 figures. 25 Legacy and 25 clone wars. it would make things easier for us all.
Its funny, that's exactly what my monthly budget was when I was first seriously getting into collecting. I had picked up some vintage and loose POTF2 figures here and there, and then got more serious post TPM when I grabbed more POTF2 stuff that was still around and really bought most of the POTJ line. $30 a month was never a problem then. I remember passing on an exclusive vehicle here or there maybe, but otherwise - figure-wise - it was easy enough to keep up. It just ballooned from there though, and it would be tougher to have that budget these days.
Yeah I know what you mean. But this is my way of dealing with the OCD (obsesive collecting disorder). And since I am trying to transfer Uni's and will have to live in my own house...well rent wont pay itself lol.

The Legacy Collection / Re: Figure Releases per Year
« on: December 23, 2008, 01:13 PM »
I only got back into collecting like 2 years ago and I already have to cut back. I have an insane amount of figures now (around 500-600) and dont have the space anymore. And often times I find myself asking why I even collect, I have so many lukes,vaders,obi, and all the other main characters to the pint its getting ridiculous. Next year I will pick up a few figures such as the new Obi (my old man ben is from the 90s) space troopers and a few animated figures but that is all. I am going to try putting a $30 a month limit because I know if I try to complete a line like I tried with TAC I will be broke. I just just wish hasbro would stick to 50 figures. 25 Legacy and 25 clone wars. it would make things easier for us all.

The Legacy Collection / Re: All caught up?
« on: December 19, 2008, 08:45 PM »
I only collect the basic figures so taking into consideration Canada misses a few waves I am still all caught up in the CDN collection. Although I am on the verge of quiting this hobby. I spent way to much money on toys this year and its really not much of a priority anymore. Ill pick up a few new figures such as that obi wan and hoth trooper but for the most part how many more lukes, darths, hans, and clones do I really need.

The Original Trilogy / Re: What could be updated/changed in the OT series.
« on: December 16, 2008, 10:20 PM »
I actually like the lack of Rebel ships in the movies, it makes their fight seem that much more desperate and their win epic. So I would prefer it stay that way, or maybe add more Imp ships so that it adds to the effect of desperation shown by the rebels.
In terms of adding anything in...well I just want some scenes of Boba Kicking ass. It doesnt help that the "greatest" bounty hunter in the galaxys most action in the movie is falling to his supposed death in the sarlac.

Has anyone read the new Legacy spin off Millennium Falcon book? I hear they are making a sequel series to Legacy, which is good because there were a lot of unanswered questions and story lines that just ended.

The Legacy Collection / Re: Legacy Wave 5 - A New Hope
« on: December 10, 2008, 09:48 PM »Check out this link http://jediinsider.com/index.php?catid=8&itemid=11408You can easily see the tables in the carded pictures from this site.
Its shows carded shots of Obi-Wan and Braniac with the tables in the package. Could it be Hasbro decided to include the tables and not remove them as previously mentioned? The pics look like production quality. We shall see......
or just listen to Hasbro as they confirmed it in a recent QnA
