« on: May 5, 2006, 11:34 PM »

Watto's Junk Yard / Anyone know a good entertainment lawyer?
« on: May 4, 2006, 11:35 AM »
Here's the story... my girlfriend and I were both in a band (her the singer and me one of the guitarists) a while back, and at first I quit (since the other members of the band turned out to be a bunch of complete ********, including a "friend" of mine of almost 15 years), but she stayed on. Then she ended up quitting a little while later, when she realized I was right about the rest of the members. The band has since gotten a new singer and changed the name. They are currently in the studio recording a new cd, and from what I hear through the grapevine (since neither her or I speak to any of the members any longer), they are using the old songs. Now, she is the one who wrote all the lyrics, and I just want to be prepared if they release a cd using lyrics that she had written without getting her permission to do so. And the way things ended up with her and the band, they won't be asking for permission.

So basically I just want to talk to a lawyer or something to get an idea of what can be done if it comes to that. The previous and has a cd that hasn't come out, but is still supposed to be out in a little bit, that gives her credit for writing all the lyrics, I believe. But I'm trying to find out if they use her lyrics, even if they give her credit, if they use them without permission is there anything that can be done. I don't even know 100% if they are using them or not, I'm just trying to get prepared, since they claim the new cd will be out in October.

Anyone?

I found this online at walmart.com and purchased one a few weeks ago. It's pretty cool for storage of my customizing supplies and whatnot... body parts, accessories, etc.



I also bought one of these at the same time, for more storage options.



It's a little on the small side, but it's good enough for what I needed.

How do you store all your customizing stuff?

Other Collectibles / New Yoda and Darth Vader backpacks
« on: April 26, 2006, 10:40 PM »
Got news of these today in the mail...





I ordered the Yoda plush from Comic Images @ C3, and they sent me a letter with these pics and an offer to buy these direct for $39.95, including shipping. I'm sure they will be offered by some retailer later on, but I don't know where. I may have to order the Yoda one, it's too cool.

I know that these two busts have not come out yet, and won't be available until the summer convention season, but I have an Archangel Minibust that was available only at the New York City Comic Con that I'm looking to trade for one of these. It was limited to only 500 pieces, and I'm pretty sure I read that it is already sold out, but I'm not 100% sure about that. If you're going to the con(s) in question and want to set up a future trade, please let me know.

Star Wars Action Figures / Which Anakin head is best?
« on: November 9, 2005, 10:29 AM »
After seeing the awesome job that Hasbro did on the Obi-Wan #55 (IMO the best Jedi figure we've ever gotten) I was disappointed in every Anakin figure they gave us, with the exception of the EVO set version (which I found only once, and was still not 100% satisfied with either of them). So I'm doing what every good customizer does, and making my own. Fully articulated, posseable as hell... I've got everything figured out for the body, but which Anakin head should I use? I'm going for the Darth Vader version, before the suit. 501st/Jedi Temple Assault/Mustafar Duel basically. I'm not particularly fond of any of them, as I personally think they all suck. And since I suck at sculpting, I'm not even going to try making a new one. The one I have on the bench now is the un-burnt version from the #50 Anakin. I'm going to re-paint the eyes to the Sith colors, but is there a better head (outside of the EVO sets, again) that I should/could use instead?

The Prequel Trilogy / How does Obi-Wan know?
« on: October 28, 2005, 09:39 PM »
Now, this may be considered "spoiler material" so if you don't want to read this until after you've seen the DVD and heard George Lucas' commentary, go back now.




While I was watching the film the other day with the commentary track turned on, during the battle on Mustafar George Lucas says something to the effect of "Obi-Wan turns to leave, telling Anakin 'You were the chosen one!! You were supposed to defeat the Sith, not become one!!' and he leaves Anakin for dead".

Now, if Obi-Wan thinks Anakin is dead at that point, how does he know that Anakin becomes the Darth Vader that we all know and love? I mean, how does Obi-Wan even know that Palpatine re-named Anakin Darth Vader? He never tells him that, he never hears him called that - how does he know later on?

The Prequel Trilogy / ROTS DVD Review
« on: October 26, 2005, 02:24 AM »
I posted my review of the ROTS DVD tonight on the site. I was able to get a copy a few days early, and sat down and watched it this evening. Beware, there are spoilers regarding the deleted scenes and features, if you don't want to know what they are, don't read my review. I've also got some screenshots in there as well. Enjoy!!

Collections / ILM Collectibles
« on: October 22, 2005, 10:21 PM »
Anyone collect ILM merchandise? I've got a few pieces, mostly shirts. I just won an Episode 1 ILM VFX crew Letterman Jacket on ebay the other day. I'll see if I can dig out some of the shirts and take a few shots soon. I've also got a fleece jacket from Episode 1:




I've probably got at least 15 different shirts...

Anyone else collect ILM stuff?

Hey Guys, I'm posting this topic to just list the auctions that are going on by themselves.

And don't forget, if you submit an auction for this project, please contact me and let me know where to find it so it can be added to our post here. If you want to find out how to help, or want more information, please read the Charity Auctions thread or contact me directly.

Thanks  ;D

Revenge of the Sith / Do you display more than one...
« on: September 21, 2005, 12:28 AM »
of a figure if there is more than one way to display it? OK, you may be confused, but I couldn't figure out a better way to word this question. Basically, what I mean is this... for my display, I have two #50 Anakin figures - one wearing the hood/robe and carrying his saber, and one the burnt version. I have two #55 Obi-Wan Pilots, one wearing the robe/headgear, and one sans robe holding his lightsaber. I don't mean "legit" variations, i.e. the #6 Clone white and shocktrooper versions, I mean examples like I listed above.

Does anyone else feel the need to display two of the same figure if more than one display option is available?

Star Wars Action Figures / Commander Gree - correct or incorrect?
« on: September 14, 2005, 12:12 AM »
I know that a bunch of us have made customs of Commander Gree, and that there is a Commander Gree coming soon from Hasbro. There has been much debate about his helmet colors, and most people are saying that Hasbro's own figure is wrong.

The newest issue of SW Insider is shipping with three collector's covers this next issue, and one of them features Commander Gree:



So is this the correct - or incorrect - helmet for Gree? I want to make a figure of him, dammit, but I want it to be right!!!  :P
