I can say this much... I think there are some pretty good things on the horizon - it's been slow lately, and quite frankly, I've enjoyed it.

Last year with ROTS was completely excessive.   WAY too many new toys for one year.

This year's been terribly busy as well - until a few weeks ago.

With the Naboo and Endor figures hitting now, Kit Fisto's Starfighter, AT AT, TIE's, Snowspeeder, Dagobah X-Wing, New Battle Packs, and 22 'final' saga figures on shelves between now and the end of the year - it's setting up to be a disgustingly jam packed few months coming up.



And if the rumors for the first three waves of next year's figures are accurate - I think colletors will be just as excited as they've always been by 3 or 4 months from now.

Thanks!

The asteroids actually came from a commercial shoot I worked back when OTC was hitting stores for the Millenium Falcon - after they were done with the set they filled a trash bag up for a buddy and me with all of them.  I didn't even have to tie them up, they already had fishing line on them. :)

The snow pretty much missed us in Dallas last year - Oklahoma got it pretty good.

The picture there was from 3 years ago - my first year in Texas.  Hopefully we'll get some more this year.

I would think a last wave would need to be 1 figure from each film - and you probably wouldn't get anything but major characters.

But since we're being hypothetical, I'd go ANH and ask for

Bom Vimdin
CZ-3
Crispy Beru and Owen two pack
SA Death Star Trooper
VOTC Stormtrooper
Grand Moff Tarkin re-do
Rebel Sentry
And just for Jesse, a new Fleet Trooper that doesn't suck.

(as I understand it some of these are already in the works though...)

I'd expect nothing less.  :-*

Word on the street is that he could be.

I'm not holding my breath - but it's good that he'll probably be back this week or next instead of the 5 weeks that they thought it might have been.

Well, I figured those stats would shake out for me in the end back when I was fifth in scoring but last in wins...

The stats shook out alright, just not in the way I wanted them too.

Now my scoring matches my ****** win total.

Are these things shipping again?  I found another one today at Target.

Second this week.

Let me get this straight.

I turn off the TV when it is 20-3 Cardinals with a quarter and a half left.

Then I check Grossman's stats - 150 yards, 4 INT's, 2 Lost Fumbles - negative 6 or so points.




Then I notice next to his name that the Bears WON the game!?

WTF?

The ****** thing is that Alexander is out another couple of weeks.  I was really close to taking LT...really close. 

So was I.

Story of my season... one week I could have won if I'd started Kevan Barlow over Lee Evans.

The next week I could have won if I'd started Lee Evans over Kevan Barlow.

This week I could have won if I'd started Hasselbeck over Grossman (assuming Boldin doesn't score another TD or two).




It's just not my year.

You need to start rooting for him to switch the mojo around - Grossman just lost a fumble.



Unbelievable.

Seriously, this is incredible.  I start Grossman over Hasselbeck - which is now about an 18 point blunder... and the Bears defense is acting like a sieve while Grossman can only complete a pass to the Cardinals DB's.

Unbelievable.

Congrats Scott.

Well this couldn't be going much worse.   ::)

I'm having some ****** up bad luck this year.

3 lines of coke off a hookers back, Rob. :P That's why your odd.

Funny - I thought that was a clever answer to Dale's rhetorical question.  Silly me.
