Zod - Defenses are mixed in with your regular picks... in other words, don't wait until the endor ou'll get junk.

Dave - Scott keeps track of everything and then he has to manually assign players to your team at Yahoo.  Trust that it will all work.  Everything we fine when we tried this for JD.com Fant Baseball this year...

So,

Do we have any inkling on Chase figures for series 3?  Do we get that info early?  Or is it just when ppl start ripping open the boxes and finding them?

(forgive my newbie-ness )

I wouldn't mind a Chase Ewok or Chse General Lando...

Jeff

Well, SWShop.com is now selling individual action figures... and the prices suck.

Take for instance Saga Skiff Guard Lando.  He is on sale for 30% off the list price.  His sale price?  $6.99    yep, that's 30% off their list price of $9.99

Or how about the Ultra Ewok w/Gilder?  Only $10.99, that's 27% off the list price of $14.99   

*cough*ripoff*cough*

 

I hate that place more and more.

Jeff

So...

Being the newbie, what's the best way to grab a full set (including chases if there are any)?
Ordering a full set?  Ordering a full box of 12?

Where do most of you buy your set/box from?  HJL?  BBTS?  ActionHQ?

Thought I better stroll in here for an update...

Completed my most recent deal w/ Scott over lunch today and now I'm up-to-date with my vOTC collection!  Thanks again Scott!

 

Jeff

Huh, I was not aware of the whole be@rbrick movement.  Interesting.  I have been acting under the assumption that the Wicket was a knock-off like the 4-packs.

Speaking of which, do any of you have those Kubrick knock-off sets?  I saw them on ebay last night, looks like a 4-pack from each OT movie and then a 4-pack of clones.

Anyone have them, or are you all Kubrick "purists"?

OK, I'm NOT gonna worry about chase figures (unless I get lucky), except for Han/Indy because, well, Indy rocks.  That means I won't have to worry about the chase sandtrooper or fetts, and I'll be happy with which ever Cantina Band member I get.  Also, I'm just gonna go loose with these, so I'll rule out any carded figures (unless I get lucky).

That said... 3 down, 27 to go.
