Saga Collection '06 / Re: 2006 Exclusives
« on: December 2, 2005, 04:37 AM »
I'm sure it will be a Target exclusive, since he's 'red and white', and it will be a $13 repaint of the Saga Snowtrooper.  Man.  I really hope I'm kidding.

I expect it will be $5.99 or $5.88 or whatever at WM, and I guess that will be okay, since I'll be buying less next year.  Hasbro has to realize though that one reason the line moves the way it does is the price; casual collectors/kids/parents start balking at anything over five bucks (so I've noticed).

Revenge of the Sith / Re: ROTS Worst

I totally agree, Jesse.  This was by far the best movie line Hasbro has done, and I'm glad, because it went out with a bang.  I think they really catered to all their different demographics, like you said, even within the basic line, where you have Obi Wan's for kids and collectors, clones for the same, and so on.  The only real disappointment for me this year has been the distribution of C2; it's been non-existent since before the Tarkin wave.

I hope so.  I've got my #41 and my blue paint out...

Revenge of the Sith / Re: When will the ROTS clearances start?
« on: December 2, 2005, 04:26 AM »
Me, too.  I'm hoping to nab an Obi Wan starfighter and some deluxe figs on clearance, along with any and all pegwarmers I've held out on.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: What figures are hard to find now?
« on: December 2, 2005, 04:25 AM »
The last 5 have yet to show here in Iowa.  I'm not too worried, since Tarkin just showed up, but I have a feeling TSC stuff is going to start popping up any day now, so... oh, well.  I've been pretty lucky this year.  Previous years I ended up going on line for something, but this year, I've found everything I wanted.  And I just jinxed myself.

I thought about getting another red guard to open, but I'm sort of saving my SW pennies for the figs I don't have.  I'm planning sort of a post X-Mas blitz, assuming clearances, which may be assuming a lot.  We'll see.

I just may make a custom myself, the way things are going.  I'm as likely to find a 501st as I am to win the lottery.  Plus, I haven't made a custom in  a while.

It's going to be a lean year for Darb if that's true.   :(

That would explain why all those figs were there along side the twins when I found them.  R4, though.  You'd think in a case like that they'd throw a 501st in or something.

Got the last four today, along with an extra Bail they threw in by accident apparently.  I like these a lot, I wish there were more.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Ultimate Lucas Collection
« on: November 28, 2005, 02:45 AM »
I've been out of action for a while, so just to chime in on these:  cool for the people that want them, but very boring to me.  If it means a chance at getting figs like Dorme, then I'm all for it.

Saga Collection '06 / Re: Bonus Mini Hologram Figures
« on: November 28, 2005, 02:44 AM »
I'm thinking I really only want Vader and Padme.  I'll probably trade most of the ones I get, I'm not too into them.

I still don't have the final 5, plus a number of pegwarmers I'm waiting to go on clearance (Mon Mothma, etc.) but beyond that, I'm pretty set.  I found the twins and Tarkin, who was the last real big headache for me, so I'm cool.

It blows my mind they fixed the visor on Gree, but not that inaccurate helmet deco.   ::)
