The Black Series 3.75" / Re: San Diego Comic-Con 2015
« on: July 9, 2015, 08:45 AM »
If it's not too much trouble, would you guys consider throwing up a McFarlane Toys and Neca gallery also? They have some amazing toys on display out there too!

I would like to hear more about the kerfuffle at the Hasbro Booth last night too. I read some comments that it was getting ugly in line...

I saw the loose Rebels Vader and Ahsoka and they both looked terrific as expected. I could swear the little card says "$14.99" though, which would be ludicrous for this line.

I also saw they had a note hyping a new Rebels figure reveal on Friday. Lando maybe?

Is Preview Night tomorrow night or tonight?

I have seen a few early galleries up, but maybe those are unofficial...

The early word on the street is that fans of articulation are not going to be happy after the Hasbro showing.

No reason they can't show off some new Rebels figures though!  :)

Star Wars Anthology / Re: Solo (SPOILERS)
« on: July 7, 2015, 04:42 PM »
I love the idea, but dread the thought of the eventual casting. Chris Pratt is terrific, but he's kinda Chris Pratt in all his movies. I think they could do well with a newbie in this role.

The way things are going, they should either require that the winner have a clear majority (as opposed to a plurality) and/or break it down to a Final Two run-off between Sabine and Revan. 'Cause right now it looks like 51% plus of the responders want someone OTHER than Revan. Hard to call that a winning choice. I would have thrown my vote towards Sabine if I had known she was the only one with a prayer of beating him.

Other Toy Lines / Re: ReAction Lines

Any word on whether they're going to do painted versions?  I'd rather have non-prototype versions of these guys.

Unless they are allergic to money, they'd be crazy not to!  ;D

Was the 15% coupon a generic coupon anyone could use, or was it a one-off that only you had?

It was a one-off one sent to me in a previous order, but I believe JTA had a different one for 15% off plus free shipping on their front page last week. That might still be good.

Grabbed another Troop Transport today @ TJ Maxx for $20.

The Black Series 6" Figures / Re: 6" Wampa and Hoth Luke
« on: July 4, 2015, 11:57 AM »
I got mine from HTS and I think it is fabulous. The Wampa is freaking heavy! They really went the extra mile IMO.

The horns are grey and match the lips and eyelids. Not sure if that is screen accurate or not but seems fine to me.

Very cool...I would guess it's the same scale as their WD building sets, which are also very well done.

2697
Well, Barnes and Noble finally started to clearance some of the Wave 2 figures at 50% off, so I caved and picked up Brienne and Daenerys 2.0 last night. Time to pick up the Wave 1 guys at Target I guess, and then hope the rest of Wave 2 hits clearance later this summer.

I figured 15 figures was not prohibitive from a cost or space standpoint, so what the heck.

Lists are due to Hasbro at Midnight on July 1...so get cracking!  The Top 6 vote getters move on

Here is the JD top six list that was sent to Hasbro last night:

1 - Zuckuss
2 - 4-LOM
3 - Lando (ESB)
4 - Snowtrooper
5 - Ben Kenobi (ANH)
6 - Hammerhead

Thanks again to all who voted!

Now THAT is a good list!

I think that's a ridiculous choice but no one is forcing me to buy the stupid thing so whatever.

I just wish they had limited it to canonical characters.

Does the pamphlet give specific details on the evolution from the stormtrooper armor from Ep 6-Ep 7? That would be the most interesting part of the timeline IMHO.
