Personally if U could only do 1 line it would be the mini busts. Bust-Ups are great (I own them all), but they are basically just half an action figure. Now busts on the other hand are a mid to high end piece of art IMO. Buy the busts, you won't regret it.
But, I do have some advice. If you are only buying OT, but the IG-88 or Leia Boushh bust first. They are both easily found for retail or less and are great pieces. The Han IMO is kinda weak as far as GG busts are concerned. Not a bad piece, but definately not one of their best pieces.

That exclusive Helmet is up for pre-order:
Exclusive Studio Scale Star Corps Trooper Helmet Replica
Now you can join Commander Bly's troops for $400 plus shipping!
It's Hyperspace exclusive through the weekend, then it's open to everyone on Monday (if there are any left).
Helmet is sold out. Like to personally thank all the RS members for buying two so they can sell one on ebay. *******.
That's kinda harsh isn't it? I am an RS member and I only bought 1 and that 1 is for my personal collection. Not trying to be rude or anything, but you shouldn't assume that all RS members are just out to make a profit on Ebay.

Wish I would have known about this a few days ago, so I could have had a friend pick me up one. 
If anyone here can help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated.

LEGO / Re: ROTS Lego Promotions
« on: April 13, 2005, 02:26 AM »I could get to an Albertsons in May, but I don't have one of their "Loyalty cards". Any idea if it costs to get one, then I can get the free LEGO set.
No, the cards are free. You just ask for one at the checkout lane.

Gentle Giant / Re: Bust Ups!
« on: January 29, 2005, 05:54 AM »Is there an easy way to tell if they're bootlegs, Spyder? I haven't paid much attention really, but don't have this set yet, and may want to track one down some day. So any precautionary advice would be helpful...
There is a very easy way. All you have to do is look at the Leia Bust Up. If her gun is pointed "up" then its a bootleg, if her gun is pointed out in front of her then its authentic.

Gentle Giant / Re: Bust Ups!
« on: January 29, 2005, 02:30 AM »This is one series that I refuse to be completist about. Regular releases are fine, but I have absolutely no interest in the glow-in-the-dark and other BS.
I actually like the Glow in the Dark set. Besides, if you want a glow in the dark set for cheap, just go on Ebay. Everyone and their grandmother has been selling bootleg sets for quite a few months now.
I just feel bad for all the people buying them thinking they are getting a real GG product.

I gotta have that set. This is the best set in the past 12 months at least IMO.
If there is a sign up list for this one... please put me on it.

On a separate note, and one that I've probably already asked:
Are there any differences between the new X-Wing or Millenium Falcon (or their respective figures) and the originally released versions? The originals didn't have electronics did they? Is that the only difference?
The new Falcon is the exact same as the previous release, but doesn't come with the Stormtrooper figure.
The X-Wing is all new with electronics.

« on: January 4, 2005, 04:30 AM »These are the edition #'s that I found in ToyFare #85, p.48-85; also their street values as of Sept 2004 (which are of course out of date by now):
Clone Trooper Captain (red) - 5000 - July 2001 - $250
Actually the (red) has an edition size of only 1250.
