I don't think Charlie went out the door because he knew Desmond would go IN to talk to Penelope and die.  I think the idea was that he did it to save him.

Why he didn't swim out the porthole, or at least try is beyond me.  I think the set designers probably should have made it a little smaller to avoid the question.


As for Jack of the Future - I thought it was Jack of the present.  He's down and out, realizes he shouldn't have left the island, and is going to start off season 4 trying to find his way back.

But who knows.

I guess I was being dense - at the time I wasn't realizing it wasn't a flashback, and I thought he just wandered in depressed and it wasn't anyone he knew in the casket.

Kick ass episode - so it wasn't a flashback eh?

I'm dying to know what, if anything, happened in between where they got the call through and when Jack met Kate at the airport.  Looks like season 4 is going to be a whole new deal.

I don't think many people around here would say that.

CIII Vader was $12 plus $3 for the Star Case.

7794
$15 and $20?

That is insane.

I'm confident that Hasbro will take it one wave at a time - if a wave fails to be profitable, they'll probably do one more.  If it happens twice, they'll look into repacks of Stormtroopers or Snowtroopers or repacking existing SA molds into Vintage Cards (if applicable) and if none of that works, they'll stop making them.

I'm buying until then.

Half a million and he's not even charging for delivery confirmation.

That makes me a tad nervous about paying this much.

got to count Yak Face, RL C-3PO, and the 2 R2's they haven't made yet) done in this "vintage" style. Do figures like Barada, Prune Face, and Rancor Keeper really need this treatment? And what about the figures like the AT-AT Driver who are already of this quality, do they just get re-carded? It's a slippery slope with this "vintage" line, the selection is limited for them to truly gain a profit from re-doing actual vintage figures and branding any post-1995 figure OT or PT as "vintage" is just lame.

Some lengthy replies to read still in this thread - but I would absolutely love a high quality, definitive version of the Rancor Keeper, Barada, Snaggletooth, Jawa, Prune Face, B-Wing Pilot, General Nadine, Ackbar, Palpatine, all on nice vintage cards.

Imagine a wall with 96 carded vintage figures, and 96 carded VOTC figures.  It would be awesome.  IMO.

The catch as I keep repeating and most seem to agree, is that it needs to stay limited to the 70's and 80's figures for it to keep being special.  Again, IMO.

Just to clarify - re-releases on VOTC cards should only be of the existing VOTC sculpt.  IE the Vader we have, but on a SW card.  Not Bespin Duel Vader or some other Vader slapped onto a Vintage Style card.

I'm pretty excited about any of these that aren't painted up in fluorescents.  I know it's stylistic, but come on...

If it generally looks like a regular figure, I'm down.
