This is a really great battle pack. I'm glad to see that Hasbro has started to embrace putting some new figures into the packs instead of just re-releases and repaints.

Gotta hand it to Mr. Pawlus - he was right.  This set is outstanding.

Agreed. I'm really pleased with this set, especially since it brings our Legacy figure count up from four to ten. Bring on Darth Krayt, Delilah Blue, Jariah Syn, Marasiash Fel, Wolf Sazen, Shado Vao and Darth Nihl!

I think they might be typos on the little signs - the SDCC presentation which is just a PPT file and can easily be changed, has the B-Wing on shelf 10/1 and the A-Wing on shelf 11/1.

So which is it? I guess tonight we'll find out for sure. If the B-Wing is there then we know the PPT is wrong and the little signs are right, if not, then I guess the PPT is.

Thanks, so I guess it is supposed to be in the stores this weekend. Damn it!

I'm surprised we haven't heard anything about this set yet. What gives?

Actually, it was all picked up at two stops. A Target and a WalMart. That's why I was hoping there wouldn't be the A-Wing tomorrow. The nearest WM to me NEVER gets any of the exclusives, so I have to go to a WM 20 miles away.

I am definitely doing the midnight thing at TRU, but I was hoping to go home. Now I guess it looks like I'll be driving over to WM and sleeping in my car for a few hours before getting in line in front of that store around 5am. And all for just ONE item - the A-wing.

Oh well.

Does anyone know a site where there's a good picture of the sign?

I'm definitely going to get this wave, but I'm not going to go crazy over it. Probably just one of each to open and one of each to keep MOC.

I was looking at the SDCC pictures and it looks like we're definitely getting this tonight. They have 7/26 as the release date on the little tag in front of the one at SDCC. They also have a price on it of $29.99.

I could have sworn that the pre-order price back when the item was on TRU.com was $39.99 like the large-wing TIE. I'm more than happy to pay $30 for this vehicle with the new figure. I'll definitely be getting two if that is indeed the price.

If it's higher, I'll grab my one MIB one tonight and then gradually build Dagger squadron over time. At $40 a piece, even I have my limits.

The Legacy Collection / Re: Legacy Wave 2 - Clone Wars
« on: July 25, 2008, 12:22 AM »
I've opened up the Obi-Wan, Lancer Droid, Quad-gun Clone and Scuba Clone so far.

This is a really fantastic wave of figures.

I was totally surprised to see that they gave Obi-Wan ball-joint hips like Commander Gree - that was a nice touch.

I'm going to open the other four from this wave now - I can't wait to put together the R7!

I am really excited about this set, but I'm a tad bit disappointed with the price.

The Womprat is a nice addition to the set, the three figures are a wash for me, I'd really be buying this for the hovel part.

What would be really cool is if Hasbro is trying to down-play the fact that hidden in the package will be two burnt skeletons. I know that's wishful thinking, but it would really help sell this set if it came with crispy Owen and Beru. Heck, if it did, I'd even forgive them for packing in these two figures from the 90s.

2x CW05 - Clonetrooper
2x CW06 - General Grievous
2x CW07 - Battledroid
2x CW08 - R2-D2

2x Commander Fox

So tomorrow night at TRU Midnight Madness, I'm primarily going to focus on getting BD01 - BD04 and CW05 - CW08 1st Day Issue Variants. The extra regular versions I got of each of those I'll be returning once I replace them in my MOC collection with those eight 1st day issue variants. Just to have two of each army builder from Wave 2, I'll also try to snag one more Quarren. So nine figures in total.

I'm also hoping to score 2 Holo Grievous figures so I can be done with that exclusive and if they have the Dagger B-Wing, I'll grab at least two of them, if they don't, I'll focus on getting the rest of the Evolutions sets I need. If they have the B-Wings, I'll really just be looking to get one of the Rebel Pilots #1 Evo sets and then plan on picking up more pilot sets at a later date.

I'm glad I can go into TRU tomorrow night focused on a few select items as opposed to having to try and scramble to get everything.

Wow - so this is going to be a November item. Cool! Now I can comfortably SKIP WalMart on Saturday morning since I'm almost done already with everything.

The Clone Wars '08-'13 / Re: CW "Speeder Bike Recon" Battle Pack
« on: July 23, 2008, 11:12 PM »
I scored one of each of the battle packs (Hoth Speeder Patrol, Recon Patrol on Hoth & Clone Wars: Speeder Bike Team Recon) yesterday. So yes, the first wave of battle packs will be out on 7/26.
