Toy Reviews / Anakin Secret Ceremony

« on: March 30, 2003, 05:46 PM »

Yep, I got this one too today. This figure does nothing for me. He only has 9 points of articulation & a blast effect for the Lightsaber. The only thing that caught my interest is his right hand. It's Robotic, sort of.
His hand is painted a blackish gold color to give the illusion that it is metal. Hasbro cheaped out on this one by just painting his hand a different color.

Other than than, he doesn't do anything else.

Toy Reviews / Mace Widu Arena Confrontation

« on: March 30, 2003, 05:39 PM »

Picked this figure up too. Not too much to say about this figure. It has a control lever in his back so when you push it in & out, it creates a realistic sbare action.
Just looking at the figure in the package, I am not an opener, it looks like Mace is stabbing himself with the Lightsaber & it is coming out his back angled.
Not a great action figure to display in the package IMO.
You be the judge.

Toy Reviews / Boba Fett The Pit of Carkoon

« on: March 30, 2003, 05:28 PM »

Just picked up this bad Bounty Hunter today. Man is he nice. A very colorful figure. Has 12 points if articulation, push down on his missle on the packpack & he deploys his blaster rifle in a quick draw action.
I like him.

Vintage Kenner / Vintage Found At Value Village

« on: March 21, 2003, 03:55 PM »

Out & about today for an hour, I quickly dropped into Value Village to see if I could find anything vintage. At the front glass display, there were 2 vintage 12" figures.
Boba Fett & IG-88. Both complete with there accessories & boxs. My heart jusy raced. Then there was a sign posted off to the side. It was a private auction for them. They have a reserve that has not been met yet. The highest bid was only $100. Canadian. The auction ends on the 31 st.
Now knowing what these are, I knew that the reserve will not be met. Not in a Thrift store.
I would love to have them. I already have Boba Fett but IG-88

. Darn good condition.

Has anyone ever found any good vinatge stuff just tucked away in stores like this?

Any thoughts on them?
