I'm gonna buy him...  ICMG's gonna win.  :)


Right on brother!
While KOTOR is cool all of the other EU on the list are really lame!
Here is my take:

Kir Kanos (He will be made by EE) - waste of a vote :-\
Corny-ran Horn - zzzzzz...a real waste of a vote :-X
SA Darth Maul (Evolutions anyone? We got him already!) - waste of a vote ???
SA Luke Duel (Great, but he will get his day) - waste of a vote ???
Solo Brats - zzzzzz.....- a real waste of a vote :-X
Clones - Be patient ,we will get them all - waste of a vote ::)
Mara Jade, Ehh..ok that would be a ok vote :-\
YARNA D'AL GARGAN - C'mon you would never get this character  othewise - great vote! :D
Hermie - C'mon you would never get this character othewise - great vote! :D
ICMG - The supreme canadate how else will you get him! ;D
Kyle Katarn - Beardo! - a real waste of a vote :-X

I say lets keep this to the 6 films, not the books!
They did not really happen anyway....from a certain points of view.....

1. "Apology accepted, Captain Needa."  :D

2. "I feel terrible."  Bespin Han with Torture Chamber

3. "This is Rogue 2.  I've found them!"  Zev Senesca, Snowspeeder Pilot

4. Dack Ralter, Snowspeeder Pilot

5. Smuggler Lando

6. "This is ion control.  Fire!"  Torryn Farr

7. SA Snowtrooper.  Duh.

8. SA Hoth Rebel Soldier.  2 face sculpts

9. SA Bespin Guard.  2 face sculpts

10. ICMG



Great choices, but c'mon ICMG should be at the number #1 spot.
I like the idea of a SA Hoth Rebel trooper, the last one was so...munchkin compared to other figures.

Time to get a new head sculpt and slap in on the Veers body.
C'mon hasbro that would be a cheap fix!

He is not a bad figure and worth having but besides him Motti & Tarkin can use an update.
Hi likeness was not too bad. Do not pay more than $10 for him. :o

Do they at least come with Holo figures?
That way if I buy any (not likely) I can complete my 4th set of useless blue globs. :-*

Nah, I was not drinking last night, had too many bad run ins with 501's  at Walmart & Target. Dorks with attitudes. I am sure there are mostly good guys but life is based on personal experiences. So screw this waste of plastic.

DarthAcroyear,
Read my reply a couple of replies obove your post. I said I am sure they are mostly good guys.
(I got a laugh at how you despise the majority of humanity. )
Nice Farscape lingo too. Its sucks that show is gone, great Sci-Fi.

In my 29 years I have learned there is always some hints of truth behind every stereotype, good or bad. So until a Chicagoland 501st proves me wrong I am sticking by my first post on this thread.
But, yes bad apples exist in every group.

My opinion. Those are very bad exclusives, with the exception of Vader. They would all make great basic figures, but as an exclusive they are horrible. Exclusives need to be nothing more repaints and rehashes if they are going to be offered for $15. They are hard for a lot of people to get and it is much better to have a figure out that most people don't want as a basic figure. Personally I don't mind exclusives like the Target lava Obi-Wan and Anakins, it saves me $30, and I don't miss anything really special. If that had been two of the ones on your list however I'd still save $30 but I'd miss out on two figures I wanted, Or I would have spent $20 more than I should have on two figures.

I still think I may get one of these, I've had nothing but good run ins with the 501st, especially at CIII. Stormtroopers directing traffic was on of the funniest things I've ever seen. :)

I do no totally disagree with you. I did not say they were the best exclusives, just better than that 501st. (I can think of better new mold exclusives, namingly some certain Ice Cream weilding idividual I would love as an exclusive)
Using exsisting molds is what I threw out above. I agree sometimes its actually nice to pass on exclusives like Lava Obi.
It a real pain in the ass to make multiple trips to Target right now.

Now if that was an army building pack of the VOTC stormtrooper that would kick major ass as an exclusive! :D

Please avoid using the 'Caps Lock' when posting - it's akin to yelling on the forums.

Thanks.

Sorry guys, I am a newbie.  I was not yelling and will be sure to keep the caps off.
I still want to see if HW cars will shake out of their beards........

Don't fault EE or other e-tailers for lack of case shipments, blame Hasbro for not meeting demand.

EE did infact receive Wave 3 shipments because I received mine on 2-23, which I pre-ordered 11-10-05.  If you want your figs before retail or at the same time as retail, that is more than likely not going to happen.  If you want your figs a few weeks after retail, in untouched/mint condition, and 99.9% guarantee what you order will arrive on your doorstep, than order as soon as it is up on EE, or your prefered online store. 

Remember first come, first serve.


You ae correct, I am not faulting them. But I ordered around the same time you did and they sent me an email saying Hasbro shiiped late. A local store called TOYNK is really getting screwed by Hasbro. Its sad they dont seem to care about the little guys.

What color would they recolor it?  They did one in 3 paint schemes and the other in 2. ???
How about a grey/white veteran color? I would not mind seeing this one in black. Its much preferable than the same old preview one again. Plus then can redeco the armor.

It would also be nice if they corrected Kit Fisto's green color. Its currently too light. Refernce the sideshow one. Then I may pick him up again.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Star Wars Classic Dagobah Vehicle with Figure
« on: April 30, 2006, 10:01 PM »
I would tend to agree.
It may come with Vinatge style X-Wing Luke and R2. The first go round was $29.99 with R2 and Dagobah gear. I would hope they are not pulling another Gunship price on us. The first Saga Xwing was a sweet deal. For those of you who missed it take advantage this go around.

Sratch the R2, TRU will gauge our wallets.....they want a better margins on the ship.

If I am not mistaken someone reported being able to vote many times with the FireFox brower.
I would think Toyfare would look at IP address.
Vote on differnet computers is the only solution. I vote myself on 4.

I want my Willrow to round out my Bespin crew..... ;D

Yes, it sucks but sh@t happens. I think the mail men saw the white box that says Star Wars Figures on it. just a hunch.
BAD KARMA. I suppose. I will have to be on my best behavior.
One note Hasbro customer service is way cool and very accomodating. If you ever have a problem give them a call. they will take care of you.  :D

I just mailed away for my George Lucas. This time I sent it priority mail with delivery confirmation. I better get this one. 8)
