Well what if it's a repaint of the E2 C-3PO?  ;)

Yeah, it's ok.  We already got a 3PO so this one is not one I GOTTA HAVE.  But it's actualy a valid repaint.  Prefer this over the chrome repaints.  I was blessed enough to get an order in at SWShop

Like many....passed on it the first time....now (with kids coming) I think this would be a real neat thing for toddlers so I am going to buy it.

Going to tell the wife that it can be the kids gift from Grandma :)

Modern Trading / 501st Droid Hunt Badges
« on: September 12, 2005, 12:26 AM »
Hey all,

I collect miscelaneous Star Wars badges and am looking for the two latest "Droid Hunt" badges given out by the 501st at Comic Con and Dragon Con.

Here is a pic of the one from Comic-Con:

I don't care if it is laminated or not.....would actualy prefer non-laminated since mine are not laminated.  But would take it either way.

I have the ones from Celebration 3 and last years Dragon Con and both are not laminated.

Thanks
Rod

Sorry about this spilling on to the JD board guys.  I am dropping it. Don't mind discussing different point of views with anybody but I gotta admit....it is kind of funny you say that....

Keep that sort of posting to rebelscum.

They've gone everywhere...almost....to try to spread the good news about their "new and improved" (translation=copycat) site.

Part of me doesn't even want to respond to the childish posts......it's like arguing with 2 or 3 little kids....all at once.  But I feel that I need to make sure that people are not misinformed. The new admins at this new site are not being completely straightforward....not telling people the entire story.

Admins, again, sorry about this....if you think it will get out of hand feel free to lock this thread if you feel it needs to be....cause I am sure that the additional "highly intelectual" replies are not going to stop.....

True....a lot of fighting and bickering.  Interesting enough, wasn't most of it started by some of the same people who went and started the new site....mmmm....something to think about.

Due to all the "misinformation" recently going around about the TSWCG, I feel I need to make sure people are not confused by this new "clone" (translation= copycat) site.

......the original Tennessee Star Wars Collectors Group is at http://www.thejawa.net/tswcg/index.php this has been the TSWCG for over the last 3 years and probably always will be.

The site mentioned in the first post here was made by a member of the original, apparently because he and a few others weren't happy with the way the original was ran. Being very unoriginal, they copied the name and pretty much the logo and started a new site.

I just want to make sure that people are clear that this "NEW" TSWCG is more of an "adult site" since they have some pornography and adult themes....not what a SW themed site should be in my opinion.

NO biggie, just wanted to make sure that people who read the first post here were clear......

How will this be available...or has it been already released.

Sorry if it's a stupid question......getting kind-of out of the Hasbro frenzy and looking at maybe aquiring these Medicom deformed ones.

Kubricks / Series 5
« on: July 25, 2005, 10:24 AM »
Nataku has gotten me a little bit into these but I refuse to be a completist.  So far I only got: Fett, Sandtrooper, Han Carbonite, Stormtrooper and Vader.

I'd love to get one of those 400% Fetts or the Medicom Vader, Fett or Stormtrooper.

Are my only options eBay on these?

« on: June 30, 2005, 12:59 PM »
Hey all,

I got an extra of the Celebration 3 Code 3 poster.

I am looking mostly for the ARC Trooper maquette but might also trade this for an Assj Ventress maquette (since I can trade it for an ARC Trooper...maybe)

Other Collectibles / Re: CONTEST! Guess the Gantle Giant SDCC Exclusive!!
« on: June 8, 2005, 11:38 PM »
Bummer!  Yet, I wonder if they might not announce something else a little later...it seems kind of odd that all they will do is a Bust-Up.

Well, let's try this......let the guesses keep coming.

If no SDCC "full size but" is announced in the next two weeks............I'll figure out something else then.

Sound cool?

Other Collectibles / CONTEST! Guess the Gantle Giant SDCC Exclusive!!
« on: June 8, 2005, 02:27 PM »
Ok, let's play a game!

Let's see who can guess the San Diego Comic-Con/Wizard World-Shicago Gentle Giant Exclusive!

I am doing this same contest on different forums on other popular Star Wars collecting sites.

Whoever figures out exactly what Gentle Giant will give us this summer at the Summer Conventions (SDCC and Wizard-Chicago) will get an assortment of Gentle Giant Bust-Ups from me for free! The prize will include:
Luke Bust-Up
Han Solo Bust-Up
Stormtrooper Bust-Up
the Bust-Up card that was given away at Celebration 3 (it is the card on the top left shown  HERE ). 

I will also throw in an assortment of freebies I have gotten in the last month...like a set of Walmart SW Gift Cards, ROTS red wristband from C3 and a few other suprises  ;)

The winner will be chosen from all the forums I will be posting this at.

Contest ends as soon as Gentle Giants announces their Summer Exclusive.

Rules:
1. One guess per member
2. If more than one person guesses correctly, I will randomly pick a winner among those that guessed correctly.
3. If nobody gets the exact guess whichever comes closest in my opinion gets the lot.
4. If you are picking a character like an E3 Clone Trooper (which has the potential of coming in many different color schemes) you must state which color scheme you are picking, maybe even show a pic.

This is not sponsored by JediDefender or Gentle Giants......just something I thought I would do for fun.
