« on: November 6, 2012, 11:28 PM »Got my BBTS case yesterday. And I was genuinely surprised to see how small the actual Hasbro case was for this wave.
Yeah, one of my cards was warped because it was so tight a fit.

The Sequel Trilogy / Re: Disney Buys LFL; Announces Episode 7
« on: November 6, 2012, 04:48 PM »And I've got to say, Jon Favreau might be an interesting guy to take on Star Wars. After seeing what he was capable of doing with Iron Man and Iron Man 2, my opinion of him changed dramatically.
I'm not sure you'd still think that was a good idea if you'd seen Cowboys and Aliens.
I only watched it for the eye candy... wasn't that bad if you watch it from that perspective.

Even better reason to like it. Thanks for the info, Jesse.

+2.
I know they came from video games but at least they look like the predecessor to the X and Y-wings.

I agree, Jesse. I mean they need to have Obi-Wan blinded (not entirely the wise Obi-Wan who instructs Anakin) because they are friends. Even though he is his great pupil, they need to show why Obi-Wan thought he could be better than Yoda (Yoda speaks that all Jedi have arrogance). Plus, they have to show why Obi-Wan is conflicted when he asks Anakin to spy on Palpatine for the council, etc.

« on: November 5, 2012, 03:12 PM »Though the CW cartoon really should have been more about Anakin and Obi-Wan together...I feel like Ahsoka was an unnecessary addition to the SW universe.
Nothing against Ahsoka, but I agree with that sentiment.... where's the rescuing Master Kenobi from a nest of gundarks type of stuff that Anakin mentions in Clones. It should be about showing their friendship intertwining and the love between them so that we can see how heart-wrenching it is when Obi-Wan cuts Anakin's arms and legs and tells him that he was his brother and loved him, etc. before leaving him.

I wonder if the tsunami/earthquake that happened last year may have disrupted things some?

« on: November 3, 2012, 07:44 PM »I got the Amazon email as well, but mine said November 7th on it.
Got the same email though the later dates... Don't care, I'm just happy to get stuff.
I believe I've got 2 different dates on my orders... I think Rob must be a prime member (as my wife is) and the others are regular free shipping.

« on: November 3, 2012, 09:52 AM »I just got this email from amazon:

Previous estimated arrival date: December 06, 2012 - December 08, 2012

I got that, too, so it sounds like I'll be getting my complete order!

The Sequel Trilogy / Re: Disney Buys LFL; Announces Episode 7
« on: November 2, 2012, 12:32 PM »On the topic of 'who's going to lose their license', I really think Hasbro is safe for now. If the discussions between LFL and Disney have been going on for over a year and Hasbro only recently extended their license to 2020, I would think that meant they had to know about plans for 7-8-9 on some level at least.
You know, Jeff. Didn't Hasbro say to expect something big next year at Toy Fair? I doubt it'd be figures from a new movie, but maybe because of the Big Ds acquisition, they can do something they couldn't with LFL?

I hope to get mine today, but it's doubtful. With Sandy, things have been delayed some.
