Oh great.  Now the pics that were posted of the VOTC Stormtrooper look freaking awesome.  They seem to have adjusted the helmet to more closely resemble the CT version.  Guess I am going to have to get several of these now!  

I still think the CT version is great, and will blend in rather well with this new one.

What does everyone else think about this figure?  Doesn't it look unreal?  Man oh man, I want an army of these now!

I'd say that SAGA was the best thing since the late POTF2 days.  We got so much variety, with all new articulation/sculpting standards that I don't think we got with POTJ.  The thing that was a let-down though would be the lack of prequel figures later on, as well as a total lack of playsets.  

Did we even see any prequel stuff after the CW stuff?

 

There's 2 Kmarts in my area still (both a decent drive though) so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  I wonder how they stay in business, the stores usually have more employees walking around than customers.

 

Nice to see a fresh topic here.

Let's see, so far I have found at retail a lot of the repacks, but no Dagobah Luke/Yoda/Ben.

Here's what I've been able to buy so far, all openers for me:

- Dagobah R2D2
- Cloud Car Pilot
- Bespin Leia
- Lobot
- Jedi Luke

By far my favorite so far is the Clound Car Pilot, he has awesome articulation and a great sculpt.  I want several more, maybe up to a dozen altogether.

And I have been informed by the wife that my VOTC Han and Leia arrived today!

 

I've had my hand at customizing for about 6-7 years, and have never attempted anything with cloth goods.  I just don't think I could do it.

 

After looking at the upcoming Jedi Force Payskool line (which looks pretty darn cool), I am very impressed with the poncho they have on the Endor Luke.  This looks to me to be superior to anything they have done with the 3-3/4" line.  Anyone else think so?  I'd like to have several of these ponchos for my Endor rebel army.  Thoughts?

...SAIL BARGE COMING SOON!

...CLOUD CITY PLAYSET COMING SOON!

...DEATH STAR PLAYSET COMING SOON!

Sail Barge I'd probably pay $100

Cloud City $70-150 depending on size

Death Star $75-100 also depending on size

I know these may seem like high numbers to some of you, but now that my 3 year old daughter has discovered the "Pink" Aisle at TRU, I noticed that the Barbie Dream House is $159 and the Dream Castle is even more.    I bet those things are impossible to find around Christmas time, that being said, I don't buy into the whole "Nobody will buy it" crap that Hasbro puts out.  If you don't OVER-produce it, you won't lose money.  If Mattel can make it work, surely Hasbro can.

Agreed!

 

Yeah Nicklab, we really do need a new Emperor w/ Throne accessory.  Perhaps it would work as a deluxe or ultra?
