Oooooooh ...nice topic!

If CHEWIE were in charge, I would have each figure with an awesome pack-in like weather vane that came with the SAGA Bespin Luke, the bar edge with the Outlander Club Obi Wan, the conveyor belt piece that came with the Factory Padme figure, etc.

To me, environmental pack-ins are the best.  They can be environment bases (stands) or whatever else was an object that was seen in movie that is relevant to that particular figure.

There would also be a wider range of Ultra/Deluxe figures, with constant additions to the line (Death Star Trooper w/ Imperial Command Console, Owen Lars w/ Moisture Vaporator, etc).

We would also be getting more of the large scale vehicles (AT-TE, Sail Barge, etc) and a few mammoth playsets (Death Star, Theed Palace, Coruscant, etc).

 

I think you need to ask yourself why you were you under the impression HOF R2 was going to be Commtech R2.  I mean, it's been known for some time that POTJ R2 was the choice for the HOF wave.  

Force Guy, I think you need to ask yourself why you are being a jerk.  What's the point?

 

Fantastic idea Jedirhino!  I think that this is definitely the way to do this.  How about this idea for a Death Star Escape 4-pk...

- CT hooded Leia
- CT R2D2 w/ holo Leia
- CT Stormtrooper Han w/ removable helmet
- Stormtrooper Luke (Han body from Trash Compactor SS) w/out the garbage & removable helmet

- accessory?

 

I can handle a few recards here and there for figures that actually need/desreve it, but their selection is a joke for most of this stuff.  A two handed b!tch slap in the face!!

 

It's no longer listed.  Was it a helmet of you know who?

 

Thanks man!  If you do some customs, I hope to see them!

 

Let me see about those customs...

For the bounty hunters in the bar, I dry brushed a light mix of black, gray and brown acrylics over the initial paint applications.  The middle bounty hunter is my favorite, with the hood and big coat.  Also, I like that blue Dug from the POTJ Sebulba figure.

Thanks for the compliments, I will make many more very soon, and thanks for the review on the book.  I really like it so far.

 

Has anyone read the book Darth Maul:  Shadow Hunter?  It takes place right before EPI, which coincides with the timeline of my very amateur photonovel series.  I just started the book, and am holding off doing the next installment in the series because I am thinking about using part of the Darth Maul book as a basis for the story.  Is it a good book?
