Posted on the front page of RS, a feast for your eyes. :o
Revenge Of The Sith Product Presentation (http://www.rebelscum.com/article.asp?i=89140)
-
Thanks for the link and heads up Dale....wowza. Reminds of how much I need to keep saving here in the next couple of months :).
-
Looks like someone snuck pics at UK Toy Fair :)
Holy mother of pearl does that look awesome. I get more and more and more pumped with each week. Only 8 weeks left and the little leak today has me itching to spend hundreds of dollars!
-
Only hundreds! ;D
My eyes popped put of my head when I saw the pictures. 8)
This deserves 2 smiles. (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/woohoo.gif) (http://www.telusplanet.net/public/djustus/drool1.gif)

Ahhhhh, what a beautiful sight to behold. I am in the minority but I actually like the packaging. I would rather have something OTCish but it's good for me.
-
I don't mind the packaging, at least parts of it, either. I too would rather have something more OTC/VOTC/vintage-ish, but after seeing it in person with the preview figures, I don't mind it too much. Granted, I'm sure it is a pain in the rear for carded people...and i feel sorry for them...but as far as just a "package" to get it to the stores, it isn't so bad. Something different at least, and it is definitely eye catching. I do like the big character pictures used on the bubbles....plus, it makes it easier to spot what you're looking for :).
-
Oooh...
Are those 2-pack cinema scenes on the shelves there? Dooku Vs. Anakin and Sidious Vs. Mace?
-
I saw those too Jared, wish there was some better looks at them. All in good time I suppose, but those could be quite cool.
-
How much does a life size Lego Vader cost? :o
-
These are great.... can't wait to see loose Toy Fair pics...
:P
-
The 2-packs definitely look intriguing. They almost remind me of the way McFarlane presents their Sports Picks 2-packs. Those and the Deluxe figures look interesting to me. I'm surprised to not see any vehicles though. Hmmm.

On the bottom of the action figure shelves, you can just barely make out the Gunship and Anakin's Starfighter (on the shelf under the 2-packs). Not much else for vehicles initially I guess...
Jeff

I'd definately like to get anakins' starfighter, it has that cool empire look to it ;)
-
Is it April yet? ;D Love the little glimpses of the Vs. sets and I think I saw Padme in there somewhere. Looks like she comes with some accessory or maybe a base.

I couldn't believe it either, I've posted here, over at RS I started a thread on 1/04/04 about putting together "VS. 2 PACKS" and my god they actually did it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I even brought it up to them at SD how much this line was needed, besides GI Joe has had Vs. 2 packs for the longest time.
They could continue this line with the OT too:
Ben/Vader
X-wing/TIE pilots
Biker scout/endor rebel trooper
snowtrooper/hoth rebel trooper
Emperor/Luke
Luke/Vader
Han/Fett
etc. etc.
so many possibilities
-
Well they kinda did Ben vs Vader with the two pack already. Han/Chewie and Luke/Leia weren't vs, but I do like the idea, it's quite cool.
You'll kill me for saying this, but I'd like to see that Ben/Vader two pack in OTC packaging :o
And so it shall be....

Yakface.com now has some more pictures of the DISPLAY (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/walmart.shtml), including some closer shots of a few items, and some that I don't think could be seen in the RS pics. A few examples:
BARC Speeder w/Trooper (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/1.jpg)
Basic Figures - Grievous' Bodyguard, Kit Fisto, Yoda, etc (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/19.jpg)
Basic Figures - Padme, Mace, etc. (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/20.jpg)
Dooku vs. Anakin (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/36.jpg)
Mace vs. Sidious (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/37.jpg)
Boga with Obi-Wan (http://www.yakface.com/2005/walmart/38.jpg)
Ok, more at the first link in this post, if interested. Can't wait for all this stuff :).
-
I'm much more down on those Vs two packs after having seen them up close
It looks like they are preposed with levers under the platform to make them "fight" and not really cinema scenes at all
I'll be passing on most of this stuff I think. Just picking up 3-3/4" figures here and there
-
Yeah, while looking at those "versus" packs, it reminded me of that game that came out during the Phantom Menace. I don't know if anyone remembers it, but I had a family member pick one up on clearance and give it to me as a "throw in" at Christmas. It basically had Qui Gon fighting Darth Maul, and you put them on these stands, and had handles that you could use to "fight" them, which was basically bashing them together until they fell off. This looks somewhat similar, only in 3 3/4" scale/form. In some of the pics you can even see what looks like little "lightsaber" handles that you must hold onto to move the figures back and forth and such. These might not be nearly as cool as they could have been.
-
I really don't get the look of the BARC Trooper either...is his armor supposed to glow in the dark? What purpose would that ever serve? Or is it green to match the environment they are on
-
The Barc trooper looks like he has one pose...sitting. Same for the Obi-Wan that comes with the lizard thing. I guess we're going back to the days of ****** pack-ins. The best pack-in we got with a vehicle, in my opinion, was the Maul with Sith Speeder. That was a decent pack-in figure.
Basically, I'm really excited about alot of the basic figures. Those jedi figures that were action posed in 2002 look really great as normal action figures now (Luminara, Eeoth Koth, Shaak Tii).
-
I'm really looking forward to some loose pics!
:P
-
Have to agree with Scott's thoughts on being down on the Vs sets now that better pics have come through. I'll add to that the small vehicle collection of the BARC Speeder and Obi-Wan.
I thought we might be getting cool Cinema Scenes with those Vs sets, but it looks like Rock 'Em Sock 'Em semi-robots now. Ah well, they are mostly dupes of regular figures so no big loss.
I guess the stroke of luck with the greatness that appears to be the Collection 2 figures has been counterbalanced by vehicles ruined by play features now. I always hated the ripcord speederbike, and now I have a PT one to loath even more. The figures in both sets look terribly pre-posed and poorly painted. The Boga looked cool in the original loose shot from GH, so that's cool, but in the package it looks like road kill. :)
-
I have to agree. These things really aren't looking nearly as good as they originally did. :-\ Maybe I don't really need to be saving up quite as much as I thought for April 2nd. The collection 2 figs still look great though. Can't wait!! ;D
-
Gah...
I have come to the much too obvious conclusion that there is FAR too much stuff coming out for Episode 3.
I know we've talked about it before in different places, but it really is starting to be SOOOOO much toys that it is becoming overwhelming. :-\
In April/May we're getting
at LEAST 41 basic figures, as many as 45 ($6 each)
at LEAST 4 deluxe figures, as many as 7 ($10 each)
at LEAST 2 small small vehicles, as many as 4 ($10 each)
at LEAST 4 Mid size ships ($20 each)
at LEAST 2 Large ships ($30 each)
at LEAST 2 Battle Arenas, as many as 3 ($20 each)
at LEAST 1 playset ($30 each)
and that's JUST the Hasbro 3.75" stuff. If you were to buy 1 of everything, you could end up spending $610 plus tax. And that's if you only buy 1 of everything, not counting army builders or extras for a carded/loose collector.
If you start to add in the other Hasbro stuff:
at LEAST 37 Attacktix figures
at LEAST 3 Unleashed
at LEAST 6 GH 2-packs
at LEAST 3 12" figures
Lightsabers
etc etc etc
Plus the candy, the Gentle Giant stuff, Master Replicas stuff, etc etc.
I remember a GLUT of crap for episode 1, but at least it was spaced out over the whole summer. It's just FAR too much stuff in my opinion. At least FAR too much, FAR too fast. :-\
It's almost starting to anger me how much stuff I'm going to have to pick up thanks to my OCD, THEN on top of it all, you have to figure out how to get all the TRU/Target/Wal-Mart exclusive figures and exclusive crap... >:(
I'm supposed to be "enjoying" collecting all this crap, but this "TRU at midnight, Wal-Mart at 6am, Target at 8am to get exclusive figure" crap that is shaping up is starting to really really bug me...
It might just be this "joyous" time of Episde 3 that finally kills my OCD collecting once and for all. If it breaks my OCD I've enjoyed for the last 10 years, well then "Thanks" in advance to all the Target and TRU marketing jerks out there who thought up the "each store gets an ultra-limited figure" crap. >:(
Jeff
-
Interesting time to bring this up. My OCD is pretty much at an all time low right now and I look at all of this stuff and go ::) Sure, I'll probably eventually get it all but there is no urgency for me. I've personally found the first 24 at retail and have retained only a dozen thus far. Some of the rest I want, but I'm not even sure I want them all :-\
Moving some time in the next year is not helping. I buy some stuff and promptly box it up - yippee ::) I take little out and what I do I then look at, play with for about 2 minutes and put it in a ziplock baggie. So much of that stuff is just generally unappealing too. I'm starting to like the higher end stuff better too (Gentle Giant, etc.) so that's not helping with my Hasbro purchases.
I'm looking forward to being in the US this coming weekend and hopefully having some luck. I'm as keen on the food products as the toys though, but even at that, what am I going to do with all of it (trust me, I do not need 59 packages of M&M's plus poptarts, skittles and a whack of breakfast cereal - please, no more raisin bran :-X).
The exclusives are not doing much for me. I actually liked the Target Vader but 15,000 pieces (only 5000 more than TFV, btw) in a foreign country? I don't think my luck will be much good here. Making them in multiples, again in a foreign country is just going to kill me, for the most part. Maybe I've had it too easy coming across these things lately, but it's beyond frustrating at the moment even comprehending trying to find them. Anyone want to trade a MOMC Target red chrome Vader for a MOMC non-animated red ARC trooper :P :-\
I'm sure (?) that when it hits, my enthusiasm will increase, or maybe when I've seen the movie. But right now I'd classify myself as generally apathetic. Weird, eh?
-
I've gradually moved away from my OCD (at least as far as SW collecting goes), but I've got to agree with you, Nataku: this is too much, too soon, too fast. Hasbro cannot possibly think that *any* child out there is going to be able to collect all these figures, either from a financial or overall interest standpoint, and I have a feeling this will be the year that breaks SW toys because either one of two things will happen:
1. Hasbro will finally see that the collectors are what fuels the line and due to their ongoing spite toward collectors, will say the line is "on hiatus" and essentially cancel it because of the impending overstocking and overproduction of ROTS toys.
or
2. Collectors will scoff at Hasbro's action feature laden crapfest that is Collection 1 and concentrate on Collection 2, while kids won't touch anything at all from the film except lightsabers (as usual), and sales will be even worse than we already know they will be. They will plan a whole lot more ROTS stuff for next year, but the line will be killed after the yearly financial statement because "SW performed very poorly for us at retail and we can no longer count on it for income since there will be no more films. It is with this in mind that we are placing the line on indefinite hold."
Jeez, if us grown adults who actually have access to (some) disposable income are complaining about the breadth of figures being released all at once, how does Hasbro expect kids, who are lucky if they get a 5 dollar a week allowance, to look at all the other stuff in a toy aisle next to a crappy Yoda that spins and say "Oh yeah, I want Yoda."
Let's face it, and begin preparing for it: the ROTS line is the last spasm of a line that Hasbro wants to die, and they're doing their best to help that happen as soon as they can.
-
Too much stuff... yeah there is a lot, but to me this is spectacular. Go out with a...
(http://www.worldparty.net/news/dropbox/Bang.jpg)
:P
-
I'm actually getting pretty underwhelmed myself by a lot of the ROTS product too.
Deluxe, Vs. 2-packs, 99% of the vehicles, and about 50% of the Collection 1 figures are all underwhelming me or simply flat out suck in my opinion.
The other stuff... Attacktix, GH, etc., etc., etc., etc.... None of it ever appealed to me and I never planned to get any of it.
I'll get deluxe, vs., and that other stuff when it's on clearance, I'm likely to do the same with most of Collection 1, and the vehicles/playsets are destined for that as well.
Off-hand the only bigger-than-basic-figure items I can think that I'll get maybe at full price are the AT-RT (looks to-scale, so that suits me), Greivous' wheel bike, Obi's thingie... Yoda on the Cancel. The beasts are to-scale so that's fine, and Greivious' bike looks it too, as does the AT-RT, so those all appeal to me. I just hope I can make good figures for all those, haha. Hasbro sure as **** didn't.
The figures are hit and miss... Some are great, and I'd say it's a far superior offering to E1 or E2's line-ups. The vehicles leave a lot to be desired though, there's a bit of oversaturation too with all these side toy lines too I believe, but whatever... It's the last hurrah so I completely expected a blitz like Episode 1 had... Let it all fly and hope for the best. Retail will buy it, it's just what effect it has AFTER the E3 hype dies that I worry about.
Will retail be sour on all SW product, even limited lines for collectors? Eh, it's very possible.
-
Yeah CHEWIE, but that's what sucks.
If they could just pace themselves and listen to collectors, they could keep this line going for years, but instead they've decided not to go out with a bang, it's going out with an atomic expolsion of goods that will kill this line.
Nothing I have seen from RotS gives me ANY hope that this line will make it past summer/fall 2006... :'(
Jeff
-
I know exactly what you mean about how they should pace themselves. I wish they would too, but I can't help but be excited about all of these figures.
If we are indeed getting 56 this year, I am sure we will get somewhere in the low-mid 30s next year, and I think 2007 will be a revamping of the line combining all 6 films into one toy line, similar to the OTC line.
I just don't think the line will die out as fast as some people are afraid of it doing. If anything, I think the next few years will be very collector oriented with some fantastic figures. Yes, the quantity of product will decrease, but I believe we are still in for some fun after ROTS.
:P
-
Its been said by myself and others here more than once that it won't be lack of fan interest that kills this...its the retailers
-
I’d go one step further up the line and blame Hasbro. They’re the ones selling the big-box stores’ buyers on Collection 1 in droves, and then producing poor quality toys that any reasonable person, upon inspection of the goods, knows is sub-par. The retailers choke on their overorders, and we get the shaft in the long run. Hasbro is apparently incapable of learning from past disasters.
Look at those early Collection 1 figures. They’re poorly painted, have detracting action features, and have an overall cheap feel. Regardless of what is coming later (even by a month) down the line for C1, Walmart and Toys R Us is going to be drowning in those early waves. Same goes for the Deluxe line, which is possibly more abysmal than the Force-Flip era of badness. Those will be clogging pegs for a long time. How ******* familiar.
Hasbro should know by now that the retail buyers are like stupid goldfish; as long as you drop food in their bowl, they’ll keep eating it – until their stomachs explode and they die. Gah!

I could not possibly write a better description of what happened with Episode I and II Collection I toys. We still have Saga/Ep II first 12 figs on the pegs here.
-
The over abundance of the first waves is totally Hasbro's fault - I agree 100%. They should limit it somewhat so the same stuff isn't sitting on pegs for a couple of years.
I will say this though - these first waves are far superior to what we got initially with EPI and SAGA. I have faith that this will be the most popular prequel line. Plus, look at all the various army-builder Clones to support the line. Awesome.
:P
-
Yep, I feel the same way. There are much more interesting characters with ROTS in the initial waves than Ep 1 and Ep 2. I do think it is because of all the army builders - Clones, Wookies, Guards, etc. Plus all the Jedi. Not to mention some decent major characters like Vader, Chewy, Anakin, and of course Palpatine.
I really don't think they could have done much better with figure selection. The figures themselves are pretty decent IMO.
-
I'm looking forward to this line the most, by far, of any of the prequel lines yet. The quality of some of the Collection 1 figures is a little disappointing, but like it has been said, still much better than what we've gotten in the past. Plus, Collection 2 looks great overall, and so does the entire line together.
And, on the other topic, while I'm always happy to get more and more figures, I'm starting to feel a little overwhelmed with everything that could be out as well. Granted, I do understand the standpoint of if they don't release them right away (talking the later numbered figures), we might not see them for awhile because we'll be swimming in the first 24...and also, I don't have to buy them all that first day...but I know a part of me will want to. Something is just fun about buying that many at once, and then bringing home the bounty and sifting through it. The only other time I've done that is opening night of AOTC stuff, and that was fun, if a little expensive. Those issues aside, I would almost just as soon only have the first 24 or so to hunt for that first day, and have the rest trickling in later on. Between the basic figures, maybe a deluxe or two, the beasts, the various vehicles/ships, and the Unleashed all hitting that day....not to mention other things like books (always enjoy the visual dictionaries), soundtracks, etc....it is more than enough for me to look for personally. The only thing I've found early is the Galactic Heroes sets, and I'm overjoyed to at least have those bought in advance as it is one less thing to look for in the opening days. Not that I'm complaining about the product, I'm really looking forward to it all and to April 2nd getting here, but it is becoming a bit overwhelming with everything that is going to be out there. I'm already trying to figure out what will be easy to pick up later, and what I can delay to soften the financial blow a bit on that first weekend.
-
Special request, so that I'll know where to spend my cash right off the bat on April 2nd: can someone (Jared, this will probably be your domain since it seems you've gotten nearly all of the initial Collection 1 and Deluxe stuff, but others are encouraged to do so as well) who has the Collection 1 or Deluxe figures do a simple breakdown of each figure and how good/poor they are? I'm talking about this type of rating:
COLLECTION 1 (examples):
01. Obi-Wan Kenobi: pure crap
02. Anakin Skywalker: pure crap
12. Emperor Palpatine: passable
DELUXE (examples):
01. Anakin/Vader: passable
02. Obi-Wan/SBD: pure crap
03. Grievous: excellent
...and so on and so forth. Basically, just say whether it's worth picking them up on the first day or whether we should wait and pick them up at our convenience. Or, apparently, in the case of the Deluxe Obi-Wan, on the inevitable clearance. :)
-
Hey Jeff - I had a question about your post...
at LEAST 4 deluxe figures, as many as 7 ($10 each)
at LEAST 2 small small vehicles, as many as 4 ($10 each)
Now I'm pretty sure I got a good idea of what the three additional Deluxe figures are, but what is the fourth small vehicle you're referring to?
I thought the Small Vehicles were just:
Barc Speeder
Boga
AT-RT
What's the fourth? Have we seen any pics of it or is it just on a list?

Cancell w/Yoda (http://www.rebelscum.com/toys2005/hasbro_rots2005_yodaoncancell.jpg)
Most reports all agree that the BARC Speeder and Boga w/Obi-Wan will be available April 2nd (wave 1).
Then, it gets more complicated. Some reports say the Cancell w/Yoda is in the cases with the AT-RT, others say it will come later by itself in wave 3. I don't know if anyone is too sure yet when it is coming out...
Jeff
-
Ok, I'll do what I can based on my opinion on what I have so far, all opened and thoroughly inspected and "played with".
I rate stuff on a 1-10 scale - 10 being VOTC quality based on sculpt and articulation, 1 being terrible.
Collection I
Obi Wan (first) - 6
Anakin (first) - 7
Emperor Palpatine - 8
Darth Vader - 8
Grievous Bodyguard - 7
Mace Windu - 7
Chewbacca - 7
R2D2 - 7
Collection II
Mas Amedda - 9
Chancellor Palpatine - 8
Chopper Droid - 7
Pollis Massan - 8
Bail Organa - 8
C3PO - 9
Count Dooku - 10
Mon Mothma - 8
Shaak Ti - 10
Padme - 9
Hope that is somewhat helpful.
:P
-
I'll add in my opinions too, based on what I've seen. I'm in a harsh mood lately, so factor that in.
Revenge of the Sith - Collection 1, Wave 1 - April 2nd, 2005
III-01 Obi-Wan Kenobi - 6, good sculpt, action feature detracts seriously
III-02 Anakin Skywalker - 6 good sculpt, as above though
III-03 Yoda - 5, hugely long neck, returned to store, waiting on clearance
III-04 Super Battle Droid - 6 ok figure, but have no need
III-05 Chewbacca 6, paint is off, he's too big but it is a nice figure
III-06 Clone Trooper - 8, one action feature away from being a SA clone
III-07 R2-D2 - 5, crappy paint but didn't open so limited
III-08 Grevious’ Bodyguard - 7, neat figure, but returned to store
III-09 General Grevious - 7, better than preview, kept for lightsabers
III-10 Mace Windu - 8, a nice sculpt, the action feature is fun and doesn't detract too much
III-11 Darth Vader - 7, stupid chain, looks thin, but it is Vader
III-12 Emperor Palpatine - 8, action feature impedes minimally, sculpt is good
Revenge of the Sith - Collection 2, Wave 1 - April 2nd, 2005
III-13 Count Dooku - 7, passed on, can't judge fairly
III-14 Chancellor Palpatine - 8, nice sculpt
III-15 Bail Organa 7, looked good, but did not buy
III-16 Plo Koon - 8, nice figure but did not buy
III-17 Battle Droid - 1-10 depending on how much you want more
III-18 C-3PO - 6, ooh, pretty and shiny, piss poor articulation
III-19 Padme Amidala - ::)
III-20 Agen Kolar - 8, nice figure
III-21 Shaak Ti - 8, nice figure, but I did not buy
III-22 Kit Fisto - 8, only gripe is his coloration doesn't match earlier versions
III-23 Royal Guard - 9, have red, like holster, small blaster, articulation limited
III-24 Mon Mothma - ::)
I'm trying to stick to my original plan as much as possible, finding stuff down the road loose or clearanced. I bought and kept Grievous mostly for concerns about light sabers breaking down the road. Collection 2 (aka no action features) are just plain nicer figures, nothing to detract from them other than a poor sculpt, if it exists. You can nitpick them easily, but I really like the generally neutral poses, especially on the Jedi.
BTW, no blue senate guards have been found on Canadian cards yet, seems we're getting all red up here for now.

It's this one:

Wow - thanks for clarifying, for some reason I thought the Yoda w/Cancell was a deluxe figure! The CargoBay site over at Starwars.com has this listed as a Deluxe Figure too - I guess that's where I got that idea from - but we all know that sometimes they have bad info...
-
You must be in a bad mood Morbug, that 3PO is easily the best one ever made. If you rate it a 6, the others must all be 2s, 3s and 4s. ;)
Dooku is outstanding... I think you would really like him. :)
:P

:P
I just took a passing glance at Dooku, so like I said, tough call from me.
3PO's still in the package, so I can only see neck, shoulder and hip articulation, pretty much the same as my vintage 3PO which is 28 years older. They're both nice and shiny, the eyes on this one may be better. He looks to maybe have torso articulation as well, so that's nice. But he could have had wrist, knee and ankle articulation. :-\ I understand no elbow articulation, but no good reason for the rest.
crustily yours ;)
-
crustily yours ;)
You said it, not me. :P
I'm fighting myself on weather or not I want the Chewie figure at all. It just doesnt apeal to me.
Kevin
-
Well, the 3PO would be better with more articulation; we have yet to get one with the SA treatment. I would rate this one by far as the best we have ever gotten - hands down. Nothing even comes close. Not only is the sculpt damn near perfect, but all his limbs come off and he has a ball jointed waist.
I still think the Chewbacca was worth getting. No regrets getting one.
The only ROTS figures that I think aren't worth at least buying are the Super Battle Droid and Destroyer Droid. Maybe the kicking Obi Wan also... and the Deluxe Obi Wan/Super Battle Droid.
:P

Yeah.
Like I said though, mine's still in package and I have surprisingly few open 3PO's around to compare with. I know the VOTC sucked **** ;) but I remember the Hall of Fame version looked alright.
Chewie's fine, it's just the paint is all. He's been bleaching for highlights.
And hey, I didn't rate anything other than Yoda below a 6 :-\
-
Yeah, all the Yodas just look terrible... very disappointing. I will probably get the first one and the one with the Cancell bug.
Open your C3PO. :)
:P
-
Spinning attack Yoda is definitely a disappointment. The base is cool, but the figure is dreck.
-
Wow - thanks for clarifying, for some reason I thought the Yoda w/Cancell was a deluxe figure! The CargoBay site over at Starwars.com has this listed as a Deluxe Figure too - I guess that's where I got that idea from - but we all know that sometimes they have bad info...
Well, looks like you (and the Cargo Bay) were right. Yoda with Can-cell is indeed a Deluxe figure according to the Hasbro site...
Looks like those early reports from Asia of him being in the case with the AT-RT were butt-ass wrong.
Jeff
