Revenge of the Sith / #55 Obi-Wan Kenobi-Red Leader Pilot
« on: July 18, 2005, 12:23 AM »
Hasbro.com has posted some new images of #56 Obi-Wan Kenobi-Red Leader Pilot without his cloak.
It looks like we finally have a ROTS SA Obi, to go with Evo ROTS Anakin.
From what I can tell he looks to have ball-jointed shoulders/elbows/knees(can't see his right knee though)/ankles, and attachable lightsaber hilt.
I was sure ReHashbro would definately drop the ball on this one, but to my surprise they might actually deliver. (hope I haven't spoken to soon

Crap, looks like the "variant" white AOTC Trooper is using the AT-TE gunner mold. 
Yea=ball jointed hips, removable helmet; Nay=swivel shoulders/elbows, no waist articulation. 
My bet is the AOTC (yellow) Commander is not based on the CW/#41, but the Red Clone Commander mold. Both the AOTC Commander and Grey/Bly Trooper appear to have no waist articulation.
Also of note, the Grey/Bly Trooper are missing the "pouch band" the goes around the Red Clone Commander's right arm.

Hasbro can only dream of making something this good:

Revenge of the Sith / TRU Attack on Hoth Battle Pack
« on: July 12, 2005, 05:15 PM »
One word comes to mind when describing these sets of rehash garbage, CRAPTASTIC. 
I guess we won't be getting a carded SA General Veers w/snap on armor anytime soon.

Man, I'm so itching to get my hands on this set. I am very impressed with what I have seen. Like most though, I'm a bit dissapointed with ROTS Anakin's swivel elbows(EPII Ani has them, WTF?), and AOTC Anakin's likeness which is a bit off. Nonetheless, minor quibles as these are probably the closest to VOTC/difinitive prequel figs we will probably see.
I can wait to recreate these scenes:
AOTC Hangar Duel
Invisilbe Hand Duel (primarily Dooku being owned by Anakin on his knees with crossed sabers at his throat)
Anakin leading the 501st to the Jedi Temple
Anakin reveal ROTJ
Hurry up and ship these already!!
Totally agree with you there. A all prequel Obi-Wan Evolutions pack is a no brainer, and one that should be made before any Padme set. There is already a decent old Ben (VOTC), and spirit of Obi-Wan (OTC), so no moldy oldies.

I still hold out hope for an Obi-Wan (however I want an all-prequal Obi-Wan set as oldi-wan is kinda dull) Evolutions set

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Family Guy
« on: July 2, 2005, 03:45 AM »
I absolutley love the show. It's the only show, I truly laugh at till it hurts. Anyone else remember when they re-enacted the Medal of Yavin scene with Peter and Chewy walking side by side with trumphets blarring? 
Or when Quagmire is about to get a beat down by the black guy (forgot his name). They switch to scared face shots of Lois, Meg, and than the Emperor "Yes, let the hate flow through you". Halarious!
Gotta love a show that uses Star Wars parodies in almost every episode.

Up for pre-order at SWS.com Tomy Exclusive Remote Control R2-D2 Action Figure.
As of now it is only available for Hyperspace members. I ordered me some, as these look pretty cool and fun. They will be available to the general public July 1 st, if they don't sell out.

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: Episode 3 Flubs
« on: June 20, 2005, 01:45 AM »
The major editing mistake that bugs me everytime I see it, is the Anakin choking Obi-Wan scene.
You clearly see Obi holding his saber as Anakin is bringing it close to his face, and then you see Obi holding Anakin's saber in the same hand. WTF? how can you miss that?

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: Not All Clones Are Made Alike?
« on: June 20, 2005, 01:36 AM »
The Clones are all Jango Fett Clones. They're supposed to be in different stages of age as mentioned above. The Bodie Taylor looking Clones are the yound adult looking Jango. Then there is the "in between CG looking" Clone, and finally the older Temuera Morrison Clone, that is classic Jango.
ILM merged Temuera Morrison's and Bodie Taylor's face for the "in between" looking Clone.
Some have speculated the AT-TE Gunner resembles the CG looking Clone Trooper.
IMPO the CG work on those Clone Troopers is terrible.

Other Collectibles / Re: Master Replicas: Mini-sabers
« on: June 20, 2005, 12:20 AM »
Picked up Anakins's ROTS mini saber at Best Buy, very nice and shiny. I was a little worried about picking up this saber, as I heard some people having issues with the big copper button rubbing against the plastic.
I actually had to return the first one I bought. It had slight rub damage on the button, but lucked out on the second, no rub.
They also had ROTS Obi's but they were all opened, I guess someone was looking for the gold saber.
