Star Wars Anthology / Re: Rogue One (SPOILERS)
« on: August 11, 2016, 10:43 PM »
I have loved everything I've seen/heard about this movie so far, but that trailer did not make me excited for this movie at all. Weirdly unexciting mishmash of stuff. Maybe the fours hours of Olympics dulled my senses though...

Picked up 2 Landstrider sets at TRU today during my lunch break. I almost overlooked them because the box was WAY smaller than I had pictured in my head.

Looks like a really well done toy, excited for the rest now!

A commercial for a commercial during the Olympics.

I was going to post about that earlier, I saw it last night luckily enough. The scene with the shuttle blowing up on the landing pad was cool as hell...looking forward to the real deal tonight.

Yeah, I saw a bunch of those sets for $13 at Walmart over lunch today.

A couple around me are just hitting the 50% markdown, which means $9.98 figures and $84.98 TIES. Still not low enough to tempt me on a second TIE, but getting closer. That's a great price for figures though.

The Sequel Trilogy / Re: Star Wars: The Force Awakens (SPOILERS)

LOL, the first thing I thought of was Zuvio...Jeff beat me to it.

One can hope, poor schmoe is going down in toy infamy otherwise.

I saw a few of these guys for $4.97 at GameStop today. Mosep, Dutch, Hoth Luke...not too shabby.

The Black Series 6" Figures / Re: 2016 SDCC Deluxe ANH Ben Kenobi

And if anyone here at JTA has an extra Jyn or Obi-Wan I am interested.  ;D

JTA?!   ???

Blecchhh, worst brainfart typo EVER. I was obviously so frustrated I couldn't even think straight! Blanket apologies to all... :-[

Had a Ben in my cart, processing checkout at 10:20AM CST... got an error message and of course it had sold out while trying to process the order. ::)

Same here. And I also had no "Add to Cart" button on my individual pages so I had no idea wtf to do. I had to run to a whole different computer.

It's a stupid thing to get angry about but I can't help it. Make more of these goddam things, Hasbro! You could have sold a hell of a lot more of these today.

And if anyone here at JD has an extra Jyn or Obi-Wan I am interested.  ;D

No sign of this in stock as of 8:40 CST this morning.  That said, I noticed one of the other products could be added to my cart, so I hope they haven't come and gone already.  Also noticed that the description says "Limit of 2 per household" instead of the usual 1 per person limit.  If anyone ends up with a spare, I'd love to get one of these.

No, they haven't gone available yet, I have been watching like a hawk all morning.

Which one were you able to get into your cart and how?  :D

Stopped by a Target that was in the middle of a toy reset. They have finally thrown in the towel and put the big TIE on clearance. Only $118.88 right now, but if they hold true to form this will eventually get to 75% off which would be about $42.50, which is the right price for me to start fleet building.  >:D

Other odd thing I noticed was this location had started clearancing their 6" SWB figures for $13.98. It's probably a good thing to help clear the pegs of all those Snow and Flame Troopers, but I thought for sure they would be carrying the same DPCI over for these. If they do, this will create some interesting issues I predict. (FF figures ringing up at the clearance price, or not at all even)

Also, a bunch of the stores in my area just started getting in more of the Ahsoka wave. Odd timing.

Jerry Doyle aka Michael Girabaldi, B5  :'(

Nooooo!!! I loved him on that show. Except near the end when he turned on them all.

Seemed young, sad.  :(

2443
Thanks Jeff! That makes sense now.

Got mine yesterday...very nice set.

Can't help wondering why there are 3 ports on top of the domes and only two accessories. What the heck is that third one for? It's too big to fit either of the attachments.

I can't recall but maybe there was originally an extra one that came with R2?

The Black Series 3.75" / Re: EE Exclusive: Astromech 6 Pack
« on: July 26, 2016, 10:25 AM »
I appreciate that insight as well. I am thankful for the opportunity to add more Clone Wars characters to my collection, even if they don't match the previous Astromech iterations.

I do wish there was some way we could get the rest of D-squad made though, having just one of them (ok, 2 if you count R2) makes me pine for the rest.  ;)
