Finally!   ;D

The box was waaaaay mangled and covered in bright green "INSPECTED BY US CUSTOMS AND BORDER PATROL" tape.   Customs opened the main shipping box, TWO of the Master Cases inside, AND one of the Boxes of 12 inside one of the Master Cases.  ::)

First time that has ever happened to me, I guess 7 Master Cases from Japan is enough to set them off.   :P


Anyway, since two of the Master Cases were opened by Customs, I decided to take one of those as mine (the other will be broken up to be split among 3 guys):



At least Customs didn't steal my rare chase figure!   ;)

Merry Christmas to me!   ;D

A throne, a septor, a crown, and a pure gold toilet seat.

Think that gold toilet seat will have a Mets logo on it?


Meanwhile, the Twins are trying hard to close the deal... with Rondell White?   ::)

Give Mauer/Morneau/Santana a break and DO SOMETHING WORTHWHILE already.   It's times like this that free agency frustrates me...

Yeah, that is scary to think that Honorius is willing to buy at $130-$150 thinking there is still room to flip for profit.   :o

Like Brent said, hopefully more will leak out as more Master Cases are shipped/arrive.

I haven't noticed Ningyoushi or ActionHQ listing any yet, have they?  That is at least two places to watch for cheaper Anakins...

...and I am convinced that Snape loved Lilly Potter.

What if Harry's real father is Snape and not James Potter?!?!?!?!?!   :-X


Snape:  Dumbledore never told you what happened to your father.

Harry: He told me enough!  He told me Voldemort killed him.

Snape: No.  I am your father!


Or not...  :P

Out of Customs, December 06, 2006, 2:53 pm!

Finally left Chicago after spending 8 days, 2 hours, and 10 minutes sitting in customs.   ::)

Hopefully they will be in the Twin Cities today and in my hands by the weekend!   :)

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Battle of Yavin (Death Star) Wave
« on: December 4, 2006, 11:07 PM »
Oooh...

I like Han (but I always like Han).  I love the re-use of the gunner gear idea for Han.   Nice upgrade from the POTF2 versions.  :)

I like the DS Trooper.  About friggin' time for a resculpt on that one.

I like the Biggs (even if it is just another re-use of the Dutch sculpt).

I like the Rebel Guard.  If they can do this guy and the Naboo Soldier, they can officially make anyone now.  :P

Fett = EU = meh, but I'll most likely buy it anyway.  ::)

We did some forum software upgrades over the weekend and they are most likely the cause of a few bugs still floating around...

2007 Saga Legends Yoda (RotS #03)
2007 Saga Legends R2-D2 (RotS #48)
2007 Saga Legends General Grievous RotS #09)
2007 Saga Legends C-3PO (Saga-017)

2007 Saga Legends Brown Pit Droid 2-Pack w/Toolbox #1
2007 Saga Legends Brown Pit Droid 2-Pack w/Toolbox #2
2007 Saga Legends Red Pit Droid 2-Pack w/Toolbox #2
2007 Saga Legends Imperial Officer (Head #1)
2007 Saga Legends Imperial Officer (Head #2)
2007 Saga Legends Imperial Officer (Head #3)

2007 Saga Legends Clone Commander (Evolutions - Ep3 Grey)
2007 Saga Legends Clone Officers (EE Set - Red)
2007 Saga Legends Clone Officers (EE Set - Yellow)

2007 Saga Legends Scout Trooper (VTSC)

2007 Saga Legends RA-7 (Sandcrawler)
2007 Saga Legends R4-I9


That's right, 39  - THIRTY-NINE carded figures in this line.  And that is only counting the variations that we know about know (you know there will be more once they are released).

Add in the fact that Hasbro has already confirmed plans for 60 figures in the main figure line and that is almost ONE HUNDRED basic figures again next year.   ::)

I guess I'll kiss that $1000 goodbye right now.   :-*

It must be the fallout/backup from the big snowstorm they got last week that is keeping them in Chicago.  :'(
