It screams Celebration exclusive to me.  What is amazing is they had all this time to get an exclusive for it and could not deliver on one.  It's very strange.  Yeah, there is no way it was going to Brian's Toys.  I would think Entertainment Earth would get it before Brian's Toys would.  Good score for them though.

I "like" most of the figures.  I will pick up most of them.  Then I'm sure there will be 2 or 3 I have to get to complete the BAD droids.  I actually like the Sandtrooper myself.

I'm hoping for a Gunship myself.  I'm sure it will be $75 this time around though.

This is the bad thing about B-A-D.  If you don't want half of the figures to get the damn droid it sucks.  Or in this case I wonder if I will ever see the entire wave to even have a shot at getting them to begin with.  Luckily I can live without the droids they have shown so far.

I am one of the goofballs that actually wanted this figure.  I have no doubt they will probably re-release her down the road someday.  However, it won't be on a vinty cardback and will not have the Dooku bust.  So, with all that said I will bite the bullet this time and buy her.  Apparently judging by the crash of Brian's Toys website a bunch of other people want her as well. 

If this is the only way we are going to get these types of niche  figures I am okay with it.  I'd rather have this option than no option at all.  No, she is not the most exciting figure ever.  She's right up there with some others like Willrow Hood and Yarna.  Boring but glad I have them in my collection.

Something about this set just screams for me to buy it.

Hopefully they announce what some of the BADs are going to be.  I am kind of hoping for a new EV-9D9.    She seems like a good canidate for this.  Although I would have rather seen it on a vinty card.

Love the Royal Guard cardback.  Well all of the OT cardbacks but especially the Guards.  I will be tempted to pick up TPM ones.  I know everyone wanted them cancelled.  After they sit on the pegs for another year I will be in the same group, but I do like them.

Look another Boba Fett.  Thank goodness.  It's been like a month since we got one.  Sorry, but yeah I like seeing the AT-ST and Ewok 2 packs.  Those were a nice surprise.  Doubtful I will ever actually see them let alone hold them in my hands, but nice nonetheless.  I like the new Nien Nunb.  I don't remember seeing a picture of it.

"People are gonna be pissed" seems to be something you should plug into every topic regarding the Hasbro Star Wars line...  They're damned if they do and damned if they don't I think.

I love the line itself.  It's all the other crap that comes with it.  High prices, bad distribution, no availability.  If I want the figures I have to buy a case.  Sorry, that's not always an option.  So, it is very frustrating.  It used to be I could find 95% of the line in stores with some diligent hunting to find some items.  Now I can't find 95% of the line and have to hunt all the time to see zilch.  It's just irritating.  It's been going on for a majority of the year.  In fact almost a full 12 months.  Of course it's really hit a snag since TPM figures were put out.

1) Uncle Owen Lars
2) Death Squad Commander - Grey Vintage
3) Hammerhead resculpt
4) Mosep
5) Aunt Beru Lars
6) Devaronian Resculpt
7) Wolfman
8) Power Droid (vintage version)
9) Imperial Commander (talks back to Vader "She'll die before she will tell you anything!!!") 
10) Cantina Band Resculpt (1 figure with all the instruments preferably)

I admit some of those up there I just want them for the Vintage cardback and not necessarily the figiure.  Although I will certainly take the figure.  I really want the Tonnika Sisters 2 pack the most, but we all know that story.

I wish they would just cancel the movie heroes line simply because they end up copying half of them into the vintage or regular lines anyway.  We don't need 4 Mauls out at the same time or 3-4 Vaders, Kenobis, and Anakins.  I know they are the main characters and all that but kill the multiples.  Grandma and Grandpa can find a Vader easily enough with just one version or two of each on the pegs. 

And please...knock down the price of the figures a couple of dollars.  Way overpriced for what they are.  I know...I know....the cost of plastics.  Retailers set the price....blah...blah.  You will actually move the product at a (gasp) lower price. 

For the love of God get those damn Phantom Menace figures off the freaking pegs.  Take them back Hasbro.  The retailers are to dumb to move them to the clearance aisle.  LOL! 

I can't buy cases because I can't hide them from the wife!  ;D

I am awaiting the inevitable "Blue" Snaggletooth variant in some form.  Yeah, I'm pretty excited for Snaggletooth myself.  They final got it through their heads they need a new figure in there for people to buy these.  Well hopefully it's enough to get people into them.  I want the Droid set mainly for the Death Star Droid.  The Power Droid is nice looking though.  I'd rather it look like the vintage one though.  I will leave the Android set on the pegs.  I love that Chewbacca sculpt though.

Kind of interested to see if they will show anymore of the vintage 3 packs.  At least I may have a shot in hell at finding them in the stores...maybe.  If TPM figures ever get off the pegs by Christmas.
