Saga Collection '06 / Re: TSC Retail Situations

« on: April 6, 2006, 11:04 PM »

Wal-Marts have sucked this year, after an incredible 2005. Out of 2 WMs that I frequent, there are either no figs at all, or one lonely Rieekan surrounded by Choppers, Titanium, etc.

Target has been hit or miss. They get new waves in, but the pegwarmers stick around while the better figs fly out. I've bought only the Carkoon wave from them so far.

TRU has been great this year, though they've had a shipping slowdown lately. I've picked up the Hoth wave and half of the Geonosis wave from TRU. A pleasant surprise when compared to the ROTS crapfest.

KB and K-Mart left town... we still have a KB, but they haven't had anything new since they got the VOTC ANH wave, so I pretend they don't exist.

Watto's Junk Yard / Re: Pet peeves... Annoyances... Things that piss you off!

Have to rant a little bit, as some ******* Mexican (it's hard not to use the racist term right now, lol) backed into my car as I was backing out. I looked both ways, and it was 100% clear, and I have my friend as a witness to this. Suddenly I hear a wierd sound, like dropping a Rubbermaid case on the ground. This gangster mexican gets out of a jeep and starts harassing me and getting in my face about paying for his rims, and how I need to learn to drive. I was scared that he may had a knife or something, so I told him to back off, calm down, and that it was clear when I was backing up, so it was his fault if he wanted to try and do something. He left in a rage. Luckily my car is ok, except for a giant grease mark on the back right. I guess I hit his tire.

Now I know why insurance is so high, because of ******** like him!

Dammit Jared, your pics have sold me on buying another Obi and a crappy Anakin just for the soft good robes.

Awesome wave except for Palpy. I want several DS troopers, and I'll get one of everyone else. I'm hoping they ship more HTF figures with this wave, like Cody and Scorch.

Oh my, how Han kicks ass. I can't wait to get my hands on these figures.

Jared, how hard is it to get the vest off of Han?

Now that I've seen carded pics, I think the figure is meh at best, but I'm getting all 5 VOTC figs, so I'll just send in the order form anyway.

How many of these do you think will come in MOMC condition?

RED holograms? **** you, Hasbro. Now I'll have to get even MORE of these stupid things.

R5: Great fig, I'll pick one up just to have him.

Hammerhead: Only getting one. Awesome sculpt, but where's the articulation? Finger of Shame for using articulation money on those stupid holograms.

Hem: Looks good, and I'll pick one up, but again, where's the articulation? Another Finger of Shame.

Garindan: On the fence... he looks cool, but the articulation is the same as the POTF2 one. And where is his communicator? Bah, I'll get it anyway.

Han: What's with the crappy headsculpt? I already have a Commtech Han, and a superior VOTC Han, so PASS.

Luke: Crappy figure, but awesome accessories. Finger of Shame to Hasbro for making me pay $7 for accessories.

Sandtrooper: An Evolutions Stormie? Count me in for several. The winner of the wave, I just hope his joints aren't stiff as hell this time.

Vader: Accessories aren't cool enough to get me to pay $7.

Ugh, I want these, but I don't want to spend the money either. I still have to buy those EE Astromechs as well. Those combined with this set is around $120, something I don't want to spend at the moment.

Good grief, Ryan, you had THAT many ships? My invasion force was 8 Victory Destroyers, 2 Star Destroyer, a few Tartans and missile cruisers, and Vader.

Could this have also been a publicity stunt to put the spotlight at this lame reincarnation of DeathStarPlans? I mean, before this thread, I had no idea there was a DSP2. I'm sure there are many here who were the same way.
