I'll add my Thanks to Matt as well!  Thanks for the C-IV loot!  :)

There was a $10.34 difference on two figures shipped. 

Actually, after talking with Hasbro just now to confirm my order, my difference was $13.03 with the shipping...  jerk.  >:(

An idea I have is for JD to do some kind of 'Customizer Spotlight' feature on their home page like the one on Yakface, which is probably the best place for this stuff , and post info about upcoming photonovels and/or previews on their home page to support us.

Um.... we already do this on the front page with our Custom Chop-Shop Wrap-Up stories.



Jesse and Ryan were using it to show off Customs, UGP updates, PN updates, etc.  All things customs really.  Things have been busy for both of them lately, so the updates aren't as frequent as they used to be though.  I'm sure if you send them PMs and ask about it, they would see there is demand for this sort of thing and pick it up again.

For a slightly modified figure, $30 once you figure on shipping is just too much. 

Keep in mind that this piece is going to be available through Previews/Diamond Comics, so we will more than likely see lower prices on this than the $25 that SWShop and EE have posted...

Star Wars Shop = $24.99
Entertainment Earth = $24.99

Sweet - about time DC got going on something other than Supes and Batman.  Wonder if it will be the old lineup, 80's lineup, or current lineup?

All the rumors that I have seen say it would be mostly the 80s "All-New" line-up - Nightwing, Cyborg, Starfire, Changling, Raven, etc.  Much like the Cartoon Network version was, but with Nightwing in for Robin (due to licensing).  Plus some "new" characters for marketing I'd assume.   ::)

They say that the "younger" Titans are all linked to "other" franchises (Robin = Batman, WongerGirl = Wonder Woman, Kid Flash = Flash, etc) so any hopes of a what I consider the real "Teen Titans" movie is pretty much out.  Also would rule out a "Young Justice" movie for the same reasons...

January = $53.91
February = $108.14
March = $195.78
April = $186.39

May = $262.53  :(

Year to Date Total = $806.75


Stuff I bought the past month:
30AC Mid-Size Starfighter Vehicles (2 openers)
30AC Star Wars Comic Packs - Wave 2 (3 openers)
30AC Wave 2 - Battle of Yavin (6 carded and 7 openers)
30AC Wave 3 - Tatooine (5 carded and 1 opener)
Kubrick Star Wars 2007 Box Set (1 opener)
Target Exclusive 30AC Order 66 2-Packs (1 opener)

Another month over the $125 budget... waaaaay over this time around.  :-\

Man, I bought a TON of stuff in May, and I'm not even counting my C-IV exclusives because I haven't paid the guys for them yet.  That means that I'm already 1 day into June with about $80 in C-IV exclusives already, plus a Vintage wave case and Wave 3 case due from New Force.  Oh well, at least I managed to get a few months in below budget this year.   ::)

Even after seeing all the new stuff at C-IV, the figures that I am still most looking forward to seeing this year are the EU Pit Droids in the Saga Legends line-up.

I was pretty sure that I was going to have to live without the wave 2 Pit Droid sculpts (from the Holo Sidi and Naboo Guard figure), but after 7 years of waiting, I will finally get to cross them off my list.  I am soooo glad that I never pulled the trigger on them for $75 when I saw them on eBay.   :)

Based on the two forays that I've made to Winnipeg in my life, I have two suggestions -

The Winnipeg Grasshoppers or the Manitoba Endless Wheat Fields

Please do not reply back to this e-mail message as this e-mail address is used for outbound messages only.

I find that line funny -

Here is the address the e-mail came from:
customerservice@hasbrotoyshop.com

And here is the blurb from the website...

There are 3 simple ways to contact our Customer Service Center:
•   E-mail: CustomerService@HasbroToyShop.com
•   Phone: 1-800-408-0052 (6 AM - 11 PM EST)
•   U.S. mail:
    HasbroToyShop.com
    P.O. Box 69070
    Harrisburg PA 17106-9070

Sure looks like the same e-mail to me...  guess they didn't want to get hundreds of angry replies. :P

Ah, I sent them back an angry reply anyway - guess we will see if it really is for outbound message only.  ;)

But, that's it for this year right?  We've seen everything haven't we?

So far, we've seen 15 sets in the line:

 1- Vader/RFT
 2- Han/Chewie
 3- Tarkin/Stormtrooper
 4- Luke/R2
 5- Quinlon/Villie
 6- Obi-Wan/ARC
 7- Mara/Luke
 8- Leia/Vader
 9- DarkWoman/Hett
10- Anakin/Droid
11- Hobbie/Fel
12- Swan/Arana
13- Obi-Wan/Bail (Wal-Mart)
14- Droid/Fett (Wal-Mart)
15- Keller/Marine (Wal-Mart)

During the C-IV Panel, Hasbro said there would be 18 sets this year so there are 3 that have yet to be shown.

According to the R2-Dtoys listings that popped back in February, the remaining three are rumored to be:

16- Stormtrooper Disguise Mouse & Able
17- Lieutenant Jundlund & Lieutenant Shan
18- Republic Commando & Super Battle Droid

I have no idea if those last three will pan out or if they were just rumors, but I'd imagine that we will know more at SDCC. ;)

The madness begins...

Now that I've seen it, I have to say that the gold foil looks really strange.  I guess I'm already so used to the red/black/silver look that the gold on there looks funny to me.

OK, after seeing the info, I had to start a thread for these...  Looks like there will be more figures to go with that Yoda/Mickey 2-pack from last year:

C4 - Disney Theme Park Exclusives Panel



And, it looks like the Muppets are getting in on the act too...



I hope these are rather easy to find as I would be interested in picking a few of these figures up...
