Right, agree with Ed. The Caps definitely deserve their share of blame, for sure. But it seemed like the refs made it a lot harder than it probably should have been.

The Clone Wars '08-'13 / Re: Recent Clone Wars Finds/Purchases

I came across some random SOTDS Clone Wars figures at Tuesday Morning over lunch. Real dogs though - all Obi-Wans and ARF Troopers. $6.99 each. Pass. I'd love to find a SOTDS Ventress though.

Seconded, what an abysmal mess that was.

« on: May 14, 2013, 08:56 PM »Rangers handled the Caps pretty darn well. 5-0. Ovechkin held to 1 goal in the whole series. I think the Caps were all about getting hits than shots on goals last night. And the refs just let them play.
Pentalty minutes since Caps went up 2-0:
Rangers - 22
Caps - 56
Ovi called it right afterwards...just sayin'

It's funny, I have been looking all over for secondhand TCW figures for customizing and I can't find any ANYWHERE. Not at Goodwill, not at Salvation Army, not in thrift stores. I literally have no idea what parents do with their kids' toys around here once they have outlived their usefulness. eBay I guess. Hard to find good deals on there though.

My enthusiasm died over the weekend when I read some interview with the director who called the original Mandarin comic character "a racist caricature" or something to that effect. It's that kind of lack of respect for the source material that turns me off to these revisionist interpretations.

I still watch it every week too but would not be disappointed at all to see it go away. I've been on board since Episode 1 but I can't honestly say I enjoy it all that much anymore. I can say that about pretty much all TV shows though with the exception of Walking Dead and Archer. Everything else just seems like a chore.

Saw Blastaar on the pegs at Target last night. Man, that is one hefty hunk of plastic. Wish they would have gone with the classic FF look and not the Avengers version.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Clone Wars - Season Six?
« on: May 1, 2013, 03:28 PM »
LOL, that was snow?! I though they were concept sand troopers and they were on a desert planet. I hate watching clips on a $%^&* computer!
The arc looks like it could be amazing. As many times I have sat through the PT and really tried to grasp the overall plot, it always seems to unravel for me with Syfo Dyas. (Cypher Diaz would have been cooler, BTW) Are we supposed to know who this was? Was it an actual Jedi or just an alias like Lord Tyrannis? Or was it just somebody pretending to be a real Jedi who was named Syfo Dyas? If so, who was it? Dooku? Sidious?
It seems like a pretty major plot point to hinge on some nameless schmoe, so I'm really looking forward to a full explanation of what the heck is going on there.
Still hard to watch and not feel bitter over them not getting a proper Season Six. Not to mention all the amazing toys we'll never see now in their proper animated style.

I can't believe I am saying this, but that show really needs to end. The first season on Comedy Central felt a novelty, but it has been utter crap since then. And this is coming from a guy who never missed a single episode when it ran on Fox. I really loved that show back in the day but feel completely unmotivated to look for it now. I can't believe there are really that many people still clamoring for it.
On another note, ABC announced Zero Hour and 666 Park Avenue will be airing their remaining episodes on Saturdays starting in June. (I watched both shows and even I have no interest in seeing these anymore)

I picked up Malgus and the INC at TRU today for $14.99. They would not accept the 20% off coupon though, but I figured that. No sign of the Endor AT-AT...
