Collector's Tips / Re: Acrylic Stands for Hasbro Vehicles
« on: February 12, 2021, 03:07 AM »
Those kinda stands Matt posted are nice and real sturdy.  There’s a sort of gummy ball on the end of the posts to prevent them slipping.  They’ve been around in modeling for years, though I only ever saw them online from Japan.  They’re neat.  Have one for snowspeeder and like it.

Jeff last I was on GameStop they had them and I thot Amazon did as well as noted.  That truly sucks tho.

I’ve been pretty lucky on packages arriving, knock on wood.

It fits most shelves kinda nice...  I too am not sure how I’ll use them ultimately, or if I’ll maybe keep mixing it around.  I dunno.

Man that lack of a working holster sucks. 👀

Got most of my ERGs in the rerelease too.

What I never got a lot of was the Scarriff Trooper.  Loads of Death Troopers (the irony of his TVC being so sought after was kinda funny) but never a lot of the Scarriff guy and he’s much cooler in a way.

Did Amazon have preorders up on Ahsoka and Maul yet?  I ordered a case on EE but like to hedge my bets.  I also missed Pulse because some of us have to work and aren’t at a computer all day to do it haha.  Pulse sucks and has basically become useless to me.  I can’t see a legit reason to stay a premium member now unless they can guarantee you figures at some point.

The Vintage Collection / Re: The Future of Star Wars Collecting?
« on: January 25, 2021, 11:55 PM »
I’m boggled by some of the repacks too...  peasant Anakin is a rough one but that Endor Han and Hoth Luke absolutely suck dong as figures in genera imo. 

3.75” is dead.  Stick a fork in it.  This is life support at this point.

I wonder if it’d survive a price hike enough to make Hasbro look at it as having enough meat on the bone to be viable as a line with less repacks?  Or is it all just the repack choices would right the ship?

Stuff sells but part of me feels that’s because production seems to be turned down to low numbers on most new figures now...  is that on purpose?  Help artificially spread the hype of this line by making it insanely difficult to collect and have instant secondary market hikes?

I dunno anymore. 

I’d be sad if it ended all together but there are days I just don’t care anymore because there’s so little, new properties feel terribly incomplete with their collections, and what they do make can be such a bitch to actually collect and enjoy.  ☹️

As pissed as all of the rest of you are.

This sucks.

He is us and we are him.  We all feel that way watching it.

I agree that it's not a very smart tactical move, but it's a very western movie/show trope, which fits right in with the stylings of this show.



Beautiful analogy.
