Middle Earth / Re: LOTR Trilogy Figures
« on: March 7, 2006, 08:54 PM »
Seems that at TRU there are 3 packs of figures hitting. One is with the Epic 2 Legolas, Epic 2 Witch King with Flaming Sword, and the Epic 2 Mordor Orc Lieutenant. So keep your eyes open. IF anyone finds an extra please PM me. I'd be happy to pay $20 plus shipping if someone wants to help a HUGE LOTR fan!

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Battle of Geonosis Wave

Ok, I've been sick for a week, but I guess I missed something. Why do we believe it is a month and half before the next wave? I just don't see that based on how rapidly the waves have hit so far. I have feeling my mid March wave 4 will be out, which works with EE and NewForce sending stuff out late March to April for wave 4. Then again, like I said, I am probably just loopy on the cough medicine for my bronchitis.

Our area got hit heavy Sat night with 2 to 5 cases per Wally so most collectors got what they wanted.  They also hit a local Marketplace (Smith's) that use to be Fred Meyers.

I really like  these, and am enjoying them. I like the various details that are included with them. I have an extra set I thought was sold locally, but I waited, and waited tonight and the guy no showed me.

Problem is, the figures that people want (Scorch and the Clone) won't peg warm. They will continue to fly off the shelves either by scalpers, collectors who army build, collectors buying for other collectors etc. Thus what will peg warm are the Poggles the Sun Facs, the C3P0's, Yoda's and eventually the Jango's. What I would be worried about if I was seeing huge case volumes at a store is that if a Walmart has only 4 pegs set aside for 3 3/4 figures, you could see a delay of the next wave being put out if the pegs become too fill. Other point is that if the pegs pegwarm with these figures, more figures being sent to the store from the warehouse is highly unlikely, htus maintaining demand for the figures.

Looks like KB had Scorch and the Ut. Clone in stock but they went fast.

Sora Bulq is in stock and ready to ship for $6.99 and shipping ($4.32 for 2). Here's the link:

Hey Hasbro! / Re: NO CHASE FIGURES!!!

Drop this idea like a sack of rotten apples. Your driving me more away from the line, instead of endearing it to me.

Saw but did not buy 4 Tactical Ops; 2 were bundled with Aayla, 1 with Padme, 1 with Shaki Ti; saw 3 Heavy Wookie Gunners who were with Kit Fisto, Bail Organa, and I forgot the last one. Lost of senators and jedi mixed together also. I left em all as I have what I want from this line.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: 2006 American International Toy Fair
« on: February 20, 2006, 11:17 AM »
Looking over the Toy Fair items, it has concluded to me, that after I get my 3 Cody's, and few other figures from that wave, I am basically backing down on the time and energy I put into active collecting. I will hunt from time to time, when Hasbro puts out a figure I don't have, one I really want, or one that is a huge improvement over a past one. I've enjoyed the hunt but not so much lately. It is getting to be a burden.  The Endor wave does not have anything at this time that sticks out to me as a must have (I guess we are all waiting to see what the Luke will look like) and to be honest, only the R5 truly interests me from the Tatoinine Wave. Perhaps I'll change my mind as they get closer to release, but after Coruscant, I just don't see me forking over alot of time and energy to the line for the rest of the year. After what we saw that Hasbro could do in the ROTS line for the $, the Saga is becoming a disappointment to me. Don't take me wrong, I love some of the figures, but by this far into ROTS, I loved  much more of the figures.

I haven't seen Scorch in any future waves at EE, but the Utapau Clone will be 2xclones per case in the next wave. Harder to find, yes. Impossible, no unless you only hunt in the afternoon.

Though I think these have pegwarmers written all over them, I have noticed in stores that have received them that even Yoda sells. Guess the kiddies or the completist collectors have to catch em all.

This weekend I was able to score from Walmart my Scorch, Utapau Clones, Sun Fac, Sora Bulq. Seems the Wally's here had 2 cases of Hoth and 1 case of Genosis that had  the 2.5 breakdown.
Case Breakout was:
1 Scorch
1 Utapau Clone
1 Jango
2 Yoda
2 C3P0 (1 of each variant)
2 Poggle
2 Sun Fac
1 Sora Bulq.

With only 1 case per store its hard to build more than one of Scorch or the Clones because by the time one drives to other stores, seems other collectors have swepted em up!
