Neat story to share. Out hunting and found no Cody's but parts of Coruscant wave. Anyway, they also had 2 Scorches and 6 Utapau Clones.  As I was pulilng some UGH figures for a fellow collector, a mom came around and was looking. I offered to help and suggested some figures and she said that her son had those (she was looking for a b-day party for her son).  Anyway, I said kids like clones and she said, yeah, that's ture and took a Utapau Clone. I then reached up and pulled a Scorch out from the behind the figures and said, here is a clone from a video game called . . . and she said cool and took the figure. 
Nice to hook up a kid with a figure made for a kid.

(KP International) It has been announced to the joy of Star Wars fans everywhere that George Lucas's world of Jedi knights and wookies will live on in a 100-episode TV series.


The 'Star Wars' movie series ended with last year's prequel 'Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith.' That's just where the series will begin, following Luke Skywalker and other beloved characters growing up, as well as the rise of Darth Vader's evil Empire.

The series will attempt to fill in the blanks of the 20-year span between Episodes III and IV.

Don't expect to see any familiar faces from the galaxy far far away, though. The only castmember currently scheduled to appear in the series is Anthony Daniels, who plays C3PO.

"We're very excited we just got confirmation George Lucas has committed himself to writing the 'Star Wars' TV series. I guess this is the news all fans have been waiting to hear," said series producer Rick McCullum. "Hopefully if we can make it work and everybodys excited and watches it we will keep on going.

I have to say that I am somewhat worried about George writing for the show. His dialogues are not the best in the world, and I think in TV people want more than "O h n o  t h e y a r e c o m i n g t h r o u g h."  as we got in  New Hope or in the love scene in Ep. III. For the most part charaters drive the tv shows, not big wang special effects. I think that is one of the reaons why ST TNG did so well, good story lines, good character development.  Perfect no, but the dialogue never got in the way of the story, 
I'm not sure I see this going a 100 episodes. Hopefully I am wrong. Thoughts?

The Saga wave that hit after AOTC did this same thing. By June or July it was all out, and many collectors felt that they had been screwed because they never got everything. The Clone Wars hit and they were hard to find unless you hunted in the am.  Finally that fall, the OTC hit and 90% of it was rehashes from the Saga wave earlier that year and everyone got what they wanted. Expect the same here and you need to realize that the number of case variations out there I think ensure that we'll see figures hitting for awhile. Summer may be hard, very hard, but come fall, be sure that Hasbro will flood the pegs for the holidays and that GL will have some stuff out by then to cause excitement in the line.

I'll go to Home Depot and get the materials and build one for a lot cheaper than either, and have the satisfacation that I put it together myself.

No Coruscant here in Utah. Our Walmarts all got mutiple cases of the Wave 2.5 (Genosis) with 1 Ut. Clone and 1 Scorch in each case. Clones and Scorches were cleaned out by 11pm. I got 2 Scorch's and 2 Clones and then got a Clone for a fellow collector.

Man, I wish it had been the Cody wave . . .  now we the waiting begins to clean out the rest of this Genosis Wave.

I have extra's and I need some cash right now and have the following for sale at my cost. (I rounded up to the dollar or the 50 cents).  All figures are carded, and figures are in their orginial bubbles. Sure hope I did everything right, first time selling here.

Yes, if you search on ebay for Mordor Orc or Mordor Orc Lieutenant they have hit New York, New Jersey, Charlotte NC. 

I can attest that all WM's/Targets have got the Geo wave shipped twice already. Since they've 'flew' off the shelves more or less the first couple of shipments I dread the upcoming case revisions.......pegwarming central on it's way  

I know our local Targets and Wallys have had more than 2 shipments, and the TRU's got 1 shipment with about 10 cases (so equal to what Wally and Target have put out.

I have to agree that I sometime in the near future people will complain of "pegwarmers" that are clogging up the pegs and stopping new product from being put out when the case revisions start to arrive.
