Odd that they were saying that firing a coach mid-season is a rare thing....and this year it's happened to three of them.

Toy Reviews / Re: New JD Review: EE Comic Packs - Baron Fel & Yssane Isard

Great review as always, Jesse. I'm glad you're doing these again.
I think every set of comic packs had a stinker in there (usually the marvel set), and it looks like you started with the one from this wave.

Collect All 92! / Re: Lando Calrissian
« on: December 5, 2010, 01:05 PM »
Lando was one of the fun characters in my collection. I always had him infiltrating with the bounty hunters because of what he did on Cloud City made him a great duble agent.
I like the latest version of him (which resides atop my Carbon Freeze Chamber as well as in the "escape pod" in the BMF Falcon), although I would buy another if they fixed the elbows and got rid of those stupid swivel joints.

I agree. The Gammorean Guard is close to Sideshow quality in 3.75" scale.

The Vintage Collection / Re: What is your Focus?
« on: December 5, 2010, 12:18 AM »
I have an Obi-Wan character focus because Obi-Wan is my callsign, so for props, and some other things, I focus on that character. As far as the 3.75" figures go I focus on:
-Jedi
-Sith
-Pilots (check out my hangar "diorama" in my collection page)
-It interests me
-Good updated figures for my displays
For that last one, the best example I have is my Jabba'a palace display. I have not, nor will I, buy every alien that was in Jabba's palace for that shelf. I have recently upgraded the Gammorean Guard and will buy figures i think would go well in there.

Bastilla Shan...no idea who that is...reserve judgement on...even though no EU character should be made before Mosep. Or Solomahal for that matter. It's okay if they release Ms. Shan before Reegesk and Tzizvvt, but one them should be in the wave immediately after her.
Bastilla Shan is one of the main characters from the Knights of the Old Republic game. I'm really looking forward to that figure!
The RFT looks like it has swivel elbows a opposed to ball and socket. To me that is unacceptable, I hope the picture isn't showing the elbows correctly.

Great review, as always, Jesse. The "laptop" accessory is movie accurate....although I think it might be part of the chair.

I agree. Modern figures (especially of TCW variety) is downright blasphemous!

For those of you, like me, who want to see this show from the beginning. AMC is re-airing all episodes before the season finale next week.
My DVR is ready to go!

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Who Wants to Lose Weight?
« on: November 26, 2010, 04:33 PM »
My advice is not to cut anything out completely. Just moderate your intake. Then step up your exercise. I lost 15 lbs in 6 weeks by cutting the amount of coke I drink, eating granola bars instead of peanut butter m&m's and doing 50 push ups before bed every night. I hit a bit of a wall in regards to weight after that because I gained muscle in addition to losing fat but it didn't really bother me.

I'm hoping that AMC does a full marathon of the shows before the finale.

No saga legends come with the form for Boba Fett either, and they did not come with order forms for the Qui-Gon/Eopie sets either. You can use the SL UPCs though.
Although I don't collect the animated line, I'm sure they will revisit the mail-away offer in the future. But the fact is that they are marketing TCW to kids more than collectors and the Vintage line is more towards collectors than kids.

Collect All 92! / Re: Cloud Car Pilot
« on: November 23, 2010, 11:22 PM »
I never had the Cloud car or pilot as a kid, but I think the two modern representations are very good. I also think the new cloud car is great even though I don't have one in my collection as of yet.
