Saga Collection '06 / Most Dialogue/No Fig
« on: April 8, 2006, 12:46 PM »
Which character in any of the six films, that has not been made into a figure, has the most dialogue?

I'm sure some of the Padme costumes might be the obvious pick, but what about beyond Padme?

I can't wait for this set.  Yeah, Zett's a repeat, but three super obscure characters at once?  I love it.  I don't even care if they are Lucases.  I just want some "new" characters!

I started with these last week while I was looking for 3.75 figures and not finding anything.  I bought one set for kicks, and have since picked up four others.  The sets have a nice "toyish" feeling.  I'm looking forward to the ESB sets, but I'm curious about what's after that. I'd love some Sandpeople or Cantina characters.

So, yeah, I'm in and I started another line.  On the other hand, I've passed on the Sideshow 12" figures after hoping for years that I they would produce SW stuff.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Best/Worst of the TSC line so far
« on: April 1, 2006, 01:12 PM »
Best: Sun Fac! Maybe a lesser character, but a great, deatiled, articulated figure.

Worst: Hmm, if I exclude repacked figures, I'd say that Bib Fortuna could have benegitted buy some extra arm articulation.  I don't mind salt-shaker figures, but give me some upper body movement.

Also, as far as worst goes, I'd get rid of the Holo pack-ins and the stands and offer more play accesories.

Actually,  I'd like to see the tall guy that was hanging out with human Jabba in the cut scenes.  He had a tall pointy hat and a long coat.

Jesse James, that list is awesome.  I'd dig every fig in that line-up!

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Any TSC Pegwarmers?
« on: March 30, 2006, 04:49 PM »
It's funny that we consider a figure that has only been out a month a pegwarmer.  Zutton is a pegwarmer! My TRU still has a dozen of them!

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Figure Release Schedule?
« on: March 29, 2006, 10:37 PM »
After reading everyone's replies, it struck me that if there were four relaese dates a year, and about 12-14 figure per release, that would be great.  Then, you could get them "opening day" or have three months to buy them.  I bet the stores would love that.  They could just do endcaps, sell out, and then just keep a few pegs going for casual buyers.

I can dream, can't I?

Saga Collection '06 / Figure Release Schedule?
« on: March 28, 2006, 09:30 PM »
Imagine that you knew exactly what day new figures would be released, and that you'd be able to find them on that day, what would everyone's dream figure release schedule be?  One figure a week?  25 figures twice a year?

I would love to see five new figures released the same day each month.  To me that would be a perfect amount to keep me jazzed all year.

Well, it is to make a buck.  But they don't just buy SW, they pick out all HTF and rare items from all toy lines.  In fact, just today I saw a guy with at TRU with a cart full of Barbie and some other line.  He had duplicates of a few different products.  Then he dug through the Titaniums and pulled all of the silver ones.  I'm sure that it adds up after a while.

It also seems to hava a ton of wasted display space at the bottem.  The price isn't bad for a real piece of "furniture" but I agree, go to Ikea.

The Legacy Collection / Re: Fan's Choice Returns
« on: March 16, 2006, 01:42 PM »
When I saw the final list I felt very, very old and very out of it.  Not only did I not know who half the charcters are, I really don't care. I don't follow EU or games or anything non-movie. (Love Clone Wars though...)

This list just shows how diverse the fan base is, and Hasbro will have a very hard time making everyone happy.

My advice is stick to the films, once the characters are all represented in plastic, then go to other sources.

A little off topic here, but I've been wondering if that Derlin figure could be worked into a great Han Hoth...any thoughts?

Dr. Ezavan, period.  He's only been sculpted once in a crappy 3 pack in Hasbro's early SW days.  I'd love to see a ROTS quality version of him, all fat and sloppy and stuff.
