The Vintage Collection / Re: Kenner "Special Action Figure Set" 3-Packs

Sounds like these are supposed to go out as part of a 5/15 reset...  I may nab that hoth set then, but I'm still reluctant just for the one trooper to have extra of it.  At least it's a date to aim for actually going to a store though.

I hope that date will include a re-launching of TVC basic figures! :-X

These are almost like Battle Packs for $6-10 off. BPs are only gonna include 3 figures going forward, right? But those are priced from $26-30, I think.

i'd like to think that she was busy with the Jedi trials during ep III and that she graduates just in time to be killed by Vader at the Jedi Temple.

That definitely is a possibility, maybe she's completing the Jedi trials during Ep.III... definitely neatly cleans up as to why she wasn't in the film.

I would probably have hunted down every single one of these sets had they not been priced at nearly $20 each. Otherwise, these are really great sets with character and vehicle choices, but, sadly, I'll have to skip each of them.

The Vintage Collection / Re: Boba Fett Mail-Away Offer?

For the heck of it I sent out for another Boba today, the day of the deadline (maybe not the smartest move). Are there any guarantees that I'll get it (if they still have some in stock), or is it a no?

The Vintage Collection / Re: 2011 "Vintage" Collection Wave 5

With the variant, this figure is now my most-wanted from this wave. I initially didn't mind missing out on any figures from this wave, but I'm going to try tracking that Stormtrooper down.

Great news on a new variant from this wave, as pointed out by JTA - Stormtrooper with corrected helmet.

The variant is on the left of the photo - you can tell just by comparing them which one is which, and it's funny how wonky the original release seems. The variant also has a revised paint job - the dots on the torso area have been painted in. JTA also says that the figure found had an "un-yellowed" helmet, but I guess that just depends from sample to sample.

Found that new SA Mace at my local Traget, and there were quite a few. Yeah this figure's wave has been out for a while, but this is the newest figure I've seen in months. Everything is just stagnating, it's absolutely terrible. Seeing this Mace was a total shock, because I haven't found any other of his wavemates.

Sometimes I think Filoni should try less to address continuity stuff like that.  It's probably one of the bigger issues fans get annoyed with, regardless of the reasoning.  The whole Mandalorian arc had them basically lose an author over it, and threw out a popular series of books...  It's just silly.

That's the main problem I have with this show - instead of working their way around some already-established material, they just try to overrule it. It's happened far too many times already, especially in Season 3. Hopefully Season 4 won't be the same.

The Clone Wars '08-'13 / Re: Savage Oppress Figure / Wave ??
« on: April 28, 2011, 08:07 PM »
Well it's about time! If I miss this figure I won't really mind, I want a "Sith gear" version more. This is a nice figure, but the color also seems off to me. It really looks cartoony, too, especially the facial expression. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot of wrinkling/detailing on his robe, either.

Cool, thanks for that bit of info. Hopefully that's true, I want Savage already!

These days, it seems that TCW stuff always makes it out before TVC, so I wouldn't be surprised to see this wave make it into my local stores in the next few weeks, while the TVC AOTC wave and beyond remains in limbo. ::)

When is Hasbro putting Savage on a basic figure card? ??? To be honest, I'm surprised we're getting Chewbacca before Savage! Maybe he'll be in some sort of exclusive?

I though it was funny how Witwer commented how taking Vader captive was a terrible mistake for Starkiller and Juno. Maybe Vader uses the force to blow them out of space and escape? Now that's an idea. Hopefully this whole storyline gets wrapped up in some way.

I was never able to find the video commentary explaining why the Wookies didn't have their own ships - what was Filoni's explanation to it?
