Well, that's quite a nice score this early.  The gas bill must have sucked, but a nice score nonetheless.



Always makes me laugh seeing people from US moaning about gas prices.  Prices in the Uk are around $7-8 a gallon at the moment and going up.

Anyway, back on topic, nice to see the figuers turning up statside, I wonder why the UK is ahead of the US this year.  Wave 2 is due through my dooe anyday now.

The more I think about it the more I want a new Gamorean Guard.

When was the last time he was released?

Well, I went to IKEA today, got said display cabinet and opened wave 1 to display them.  I've purchased an extra GM to keep carded and left the Concept Stormtrooper on card as well.

30AC will all be loose.  Thanks for all the input.

Why's the Marine so hard to stand, Nick?  Legs pinched together? 

Yep.

The bottoms of the boots aren't flat either.  They have a slight upwards curve in them.

So far I've found one pose that he can stand in without a stand.  Legs facing forward, body and head twisted to the left.

Having just opened my Galactic Marine all I can say is it's a complete swine to stand-up.  It just doesn't want to know.

Trust Hasbro to screw up one of their best figures to date.

UK update.

I visited two TRU today and both Obi and Mace were warming the pegs, no sign of a Galactic marine anywhere.

Having just seen the pictures this has gone from a must buy to won't be wasting my money.

Rubbish, rubbish, rubbish.

Nick, I've been contemplating the same thing for years. I do both loose and carded, but am finding that a carded collection is just too much to store, with no end in sight. Still haven't quit the carded thing yet, but have been thinking about it.

Thats exactly the situation I'm in.

I've no wall space left at all now and there is no way my better half is going to let me have another room for my collection.

Keep the response coming folks, you are all being a great help.

Obi.

Yep, nothing to be found in stores now except Obi.  He ain't moving folks, so be prepared. :P

OBi's been stuck on my local ASDA's shelves for a few weeks now.
