WOW! :o

I feel like I'm watching ANH with alternate camera angles! The walls and floor are very realistic. That drink dispenser is great! Wonderful, wonderful work!

Does that "blue cross" thing at the entrance light up?

Photonovels and Movies / Shadowstalker - Chapter One
« on: June 15, 2006, 01:05 AM »
About a year ago, I brought you a photonovel series called The Sith Revelations. Budget, real life, and a variety of other things interfered, however, and I quietly axed the project the weekend after Thanksgiving after the latest novel had been posted. One week later, I found a Utapau Shadow Trooper at Target. I had an idea for a Photonovel ever since I saw the prototype pics for the Trooper, but decided to hold off for a while. Now, I have decided to pick up the project and bring it to you. Here's a preview...





The Clone Wars are raging across the Galaxy. Jedi and their Clones fight Battle Droids on various planets. Luckily, I am not with them.



I am a specially trained Clone Trooper - like ARC Troopers, only a few of my kind exist. However, I am different than any other Clone. My work begins at sundown.



Interesting things happen at night. Greedy politicians make deals with underworld gangsters, threatening what little peace and stability is left in the galaxy. They sit in the shadows of their offices, thinking they're alone.



But they don't know that I'm there with them. Listening to every word they say. They're about to die. All because of me.

I am a Shadow Trooper.



Expect a July release!

Everytime I see your vehicles it makes me want to buy some of those cheap GI Joe knock off vehicles they sell at Wal-Mart and make one of my own. I love it! Painting and weathering are both great and very "Star Wars realistic".

Nice! The painting is smooth and crisp. That arm on the Melee Trooper reminds me of Mega Man. I like the Slicer ARC the best though. Really good job!

Found R5, Hammerhead, Luke, Han, and Vader today. I picked up R5 and Hammerhead, but passed on Luke because I didn't bring enough cash thinking I wouldn't find anything. Stupid me. Luke looks even better in person, so it was really hard to put it back.

EDIT: felt like taking some comparison pics that Jared didn't...

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: CHEWIE's CUSTOMS - Updated Sunday 6.11.06
« on: June 13, 2006, 01:00 PM »
Good set of customs, CHEWIE.

Drab is a perfect background character, paintwise and articulation wise.

Cheedo is great! Fantastic use of parts. He actually looks like he's wearing an oversized hoody. Reminds me of school...

I have one criticism about Borraca. His head seems to be too small for the Preview Wookiee's body. I think a VOTC/Early Bird Chewie body would look better, but I know those are harder to come by. Other than that, it looks good.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: If You Lost Your Collection....
« on: June 13, 2006, 12:42 PM »
If I lost my collection, I probably wouldn't start over. I'd go back and get some of the cooler/favorite figures, but rebuying everything would be a lot more expensive then when I first bought it.

I would go back and rebuy the Legos again though. There are a LOT less of them I'd have to track down, and a lot are still sold for MSRP either in stores or online.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: TRU Exclusive Endor AT-AT
« on: June 12, 2006, 01:25 PM »
Another reason to not wait for a clearance is that it's a TRU exclusive. Have you ever seen TRU clearance out their billion Millenium Falcons that still sit? Their shelves full of VOTC Landos? Older figures from OTC/POTJ/ROTS? Nope... chances for a clearance on this sucker look dim.

Great, now I'm stuck with MORE of those bases that come with the Guard and the 501st Trooper.

I saw a Han yesterday at Wal-Mart, but the box was trashed and the Holographic figure was stolen. Anyone else encountered something similar to this?

Yes, but they aren't TSC Basic figures. Like Jesse said, the only figures who even come CLOSE to having ROTS quality articulation are Sun Fac, Sora Bulq, Leia Boussh, AT-AT Driver, and the Firespeeder Pilot.

Well they at least changed it up this time, a new head and better paint job is better than having the same thing again.

Thanks for compiling all this info, Jeff. All these answers are exactly what I expected, more of the same stuff Hasbro always says when asked questions.
