Well, they didn't charge me any tax on my order for these... now that they are separated from TRU, taxes at Amazon are set by where you live and who is shipping you the stuff.

For anyone looking for a pretty good deal, try Amazon.com:
Episode 4 (ANH) Tin- $27.99 with free "super saver" shipping
Episode 5 (ESB) Tin- $27.99 with free "super saver" shipping
Doesn't look like they have any of the others in-stock, but $56 for the two tins (free shipping, no tax) is a pretty good deal.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: "Jedi vs. Darth Sidous" Battle Pack
« on: November 3, 2006, 11:59 AM »Yeah, and we get the same exact figure in the Mace Windu batallion pack. I can't wait for the SA version.
Actually, the Mace Windu in the MW Attack Battalion battle pack is the ROTS one again (you can tell by the elbow articulation and the action feature).

Hey Hasbro! / Re: Questions for Hasbro?
« on: November 3, 2006, 11:39 AM »How long is the expected wait to receive a George Lucas in Stormtrooper Disguise? It has been two months since my check was cashed. Is there an e-mail address or phone number we can contact to check the status?
Hasbro's standard reply (when they do reply), is that :
Quote
Your Exclusive George Lucas (in Stormtrooper Disguise) Figure will be mailed to you between June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006.
Unforunately, they are running a bit slowly with the orders lately... some folks have waited 3-4 months. There isn't anything you can really do at this point to make them go any faster.

Screw it, I'm 60+ points behind the leader now, time to start doing something.
I'm really starting to worry that I used up all my Fantasy NHL luck last year...

The Good:
- VTSC Biker Scout: Loved him. Great articulation on an Imp Army builder = bliss. I really hope they get around to the Snowtrooper in the next batch of "Vintage" re-issue figures...
- VTSC Endor Han: Loved him. Great articulation on one of my favorites. I really hope they get around to Bespin Han in the next batch of of "Vintage" re-issues figures...
- R5-D4: Now I can finally throw away that POTF2 mostrosity! Yay!
The Bad:
- Commander Cody: I liked him, but he really needed better legs to be great...
- Scorch: Another great figure that could have really used better legs...
The Ugly:
- Poggle the Lesser: Did he need to be re-issued?
- Holo Ki-Adi/Maul/Cody/Obi-Wan: I'm tired of Holo figures...
- Vader/Vader/Vader/Vader: Pick one and stick with it. There was no need for Hoth Vader, Bespin Vader, H&V Vader, DS2 Vader, etc. Just pick one carded version and keep that ONE version shipping through the year.

Are there any tailies left? I think just Bernard, Rose's husband, is the last from that Tail Section group, right?
Of course, I suppose some of the tailies that were "captured" could still be around, but I think 99% of the ones we met have been killed.
RIP Mr. Eko.
Man, that still ticks me off they decided to do that to him...

I think TO is a self-centered loudmouth and often the cause of many team distractions, but as a Wide Receiver on the football field, he definitely isn't overrated.
When he is healthy and focused, he can be one of the most dangerous receivers out there. Same goes for Randy Moss. I think they suffer from distractions (self-caused by ego), but they are still great receivers.
When I think over-rated, I tend to think about guys like Rick Mirer or Ryan Leaf. Those guys were overrated...

Kubricks / Re: Kubrick Addicts Anonymous
« on: November 1, 2006, 02:53 PM »
Ok, so the RAH Shadow Stormtrooper is now up for pre-order at StarWarsShop. No mention of it being a 2-pack with the Kubrick version though. I thought we saw a catalog image that indicated they'd be packed together?
In possibly related news, I noticed that Medicom is slated to have 3 exclusives at the big World Character Convention in December (WCC23, 03-Dec-2006). Those 3 exclusives haven't been announced yet though... what do you all think are the chances that the Kubrick Shadow Stromtrooper shows up there?

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Target "Battle of Felucia" Battle Pack
« on: November 1, 2006, 01:21 PM »<and I don't consider a repaint or kitbash as a new anything either>
Well, unfortunately for you, Hasbro does consider Clone repaints and kit-bash figures as "new" when it comes to these exclusive Battle Packs. In fact, when you look at the all of the 2006 exclusive Battle Packs (not just THFG BP), you'll see that the majority of the "new" items in them are just repaints/kitbashes.
- Target Skirmish in the Senate: Senate Pod (new item)
- Target Skirmish in the Senate Shocktrooper (#41 repaint)
- TRU Hunt for General Grievous: Fordo (Kit-Bash)
- TRU Hunt for General Grievous: Clone Heavy Gunner (Kit-Bash & Repaint)
- Target Mace Windu's Attack Battalion: Clone Trooper (#41 Repaint)
- Target Mace Windu's Attack Battalion: Clone Commander (2007 Airborne Clone Repaint)
