It's the whole panic idea, I think. Get it now! But on the flip side... out of sight, out of mind.

The Vintage Collection / Re: 2011 Hasbro Fans' Choice Poll
« on: October 24, 2011, 07:15 PM »
But that was at the otheR Site... I think we're more tolerant of peoples' likes here.
I'm all for Jaxxon and other EU stuff. I won't buy it personally, because I don't get into it, but I'm happy for those that do get something they enjoy. And I really enjoy the Cantina and Jabba's Palace figures, no matter how obsure they are. Of course, I love all the outfits that Padme wore, too, despite how some people think they might think they're boring.

Maybe they figured the Q&A they had at the figure forum was enough... since most were likely asked by people that run the forums anyway (I don't know the who's who of SW collecting sites outside of a few on here).
Sooo... in hindsight, we should have given our Q&A to Paul, speedermike or myself and we'd have avoided this headache.

Jocasta's Reading Room / Re: Darth Plagieus Novel Cancelled

Seems like Palpatine never dies, either, just resurrects himself in a clone (of course maybe they finally offed him, just going by Dark Empire).

Wasn't there a book about zombie Stormtroopers or something? Definitely Geonosians.

At least they corrected Ponda... they had him listed as Ackbar for a couple days.

That looks like some team won a championship and that's how the fans celebrated!

Maybe with who's on the back cover, perhaps that's why the story was delayed... they wanted to include Maul and Luceno, had to rework it?

I'll care if they do it better and make the 'formers so you can actually tell who the heck is who. And I'd love it if these guys looked like they do in G1 or 2, instead of the odd looks.

The Vintage Collection / Re: 2012 "Vintage" Collection Wave 14 - Re-issue Wave
« on: October 17, 2011, 01:39 PM »
Edit: and maybe the third part of the question could be why they are still only putting one of each new figure in a wave per case, why not have them in there at 2-per-case so that new figures have a better chance of being found.
^^^ this - it is working quite well in the MU line
They can't put more than one of each new figure in a case...they need the room for Vader, Boba Fett, Sandtrooper and any variety of Clone Troopers to clog the pegs.
I agree a bit on this. I mean if you put 2x of obsure characters like Yarna and Jerjerrod) as well, then we stuck looking at their pretty faces on each visit to the store. As far as clones... don't forget the green helmets!

They just want us to waste a question for the Q&A to clarify statements.

At the Hasbro panel, they talked about the Join The Jedi contest. First thing I thought of: Star Wars Kid. Dude should win that retroactively.

TV-9D9 / Re: The Clone Wars - Season Four Discussion Thread
« on: October 15, 2011, 10:18 PM »I got to catch up with Ashley Eckstein (voice of Ahsoka Tano) at NY Comic Con today. And she asked me what I thought of the season so far. She said that the next story arc of 4 episodes is going to get more serious, but couldn't eleborate much beyond that.
Ahsoka dies??? (no, probably not, but wouldn't that be sad)

« on: October 15, 2011, 01:54 PM »You guys are glossing over the big news...
The Squeeknie Battle guys. We got a good 10 minutes of this stuff and a preview of the commercial and were told how exciting this new segment was for us. They did assure us that this would not supplant the 3.75in line.
Hey, it's 130 figures in a year! I don't recall if those included the hidden/chase figures. It's funny that the panel said they didn't want to get into chase figures, but then say some pods will be 'dark' so you don't know who's in said pod and that the figure would be random.
