Saga Collection '06 / Re: Battle of Carkoon Wave

Does anyone's Carbonite Han Block stand up with out assistance?

I would have liked a flat bottom on it so I don't have to prop it up with something or lean it against the back of the display case in order to display him. >:(

I can't get mine to stand on it's own to save my life! They should have made it so it could attach to the stand in some way.

I lucked out and found a Clone 4pk for sale which included Gree at a local collectables show. The seller had opened up all the sets in his case and came out with two Gree. He was selling each 4pk w/ Gree for $30.

Picked up a couple figs from Target. Although I don't like it, I wasn't surprised to see the $6.99 price tag. This seems to be the norm for them. They start off high then come back down when they see Walmart is selling them for less. Just keep your receipts, like Jeff said, I give it a month. However, if they don't lower their price Walmart will be seeing most of my money. That extra $1.11 per fig adds up quick!

Scored the entire first wave of TSC between Walmart and Target over the last few days.

Picked up one each of the new Ultra Titanium Droid Fighter and Arc-170. Also picked up another set of the Walmart Twins, Gree w/ dark green visor, and the new wave of 3" Titaniums Biker Scout on Speeder, Clone Turbo Tank, and Republic Attack Cruiser.

I will pick uo the Stormie if he's the Evolutions or VOTC one. 

From the photo they have posted I'm pretty sure their going to use the Commtech Stormtrooper mold for the Sandtrooper.

Just out of curiosity, how are you guys determining the Shocks to be the SA version? I can't make out the difference between the two molds with that photo they provided. It would be nice if they were but I'm not keeping my hopes up about that one.


A few pages back, I blew up the photo...

Take a looky at this blow-up...


In the blow-up pic, you can see what looks like the "nubs" of the antenna above the Shocktroopers heads.  Also, on the #6 the belt is sculpted on, but on the #41 sculpt, the belt is a separate piece - you can see in the picture that these clones have the larger separate piece belt indicating they may be #41.

Granted, things can change (insert Hasbro disclaimer here) but for now, the signs all point to #41 Clones...

That's some serious detective work right there! Thanks. Still not going to get my hopes up but a #41 Shock would be nice. Until I see the final product I'll have to assume Jared's quote above is correct ;).

I can see finding lots of sets with the #6 clones returned. :(

Me too  :-\. Just out of curiosity, how are you guys determining the Shocks to be the SA version? I can't make out the difference between the two molds with that photo they provided. It would be nice if they were but I'm not keeping my hopes up about that one.

Loving this wave! As with others, Han is the only one I really don't care for. If Hasbro keeps this up I won't be saving as much money as I thought I would this next year...  ;D

Picked up some more presents for my kids at TRU. Had a TRU coupon my CC company sent me for being a good customer so I picked up an extra Republic Gunship for $10!  ;D

I've got a buddy who's just getting into the toy business (with a wholesaler's license and all that jazz), and he may be able to offer some pretty good prices on this piece for JD'ers.  So if anyone's interested, drop me a line, and I'll talk to him about it some more and get a few pricing details from him.

Matt, PM headed your way!  ;D

Other Collectibles / Re: 2005 Gentle Giant Holiday gift..........
« on: December 16, 2005, 10:50 AM »
My guess is that we'll probably see some form of this bust made available to the public (minus the Santa hat, lights and present of course). I've gotta admit though, I'm liking it. Wouldn't spend the money it'll take to get the holiday one though :-\. Let's see how long it take to hit ebay...

What are the chances that we can get a new Palpatine out of the deal?

#12 Palpatine just doesn't cut it

I wouldn't mind a repack on this one. As long as it's the Evo Palpatine  ;D.

Curious to see what's going to be in this pack. More Shocktroopers would be nice. Especially if they're an SA version.

Gentle Giant / Re: Bust Ups!

Depends on which "chase" figures you're referring to. The regular line chase figures (Leia, Vader/Maul, Silver Boba Fett, Sith Anakin) have been pretty easy to find in my experience. The "exclusive" chase figures (Blackhole trooper and Gree) seem to be the harder to find ones. And as far as I can tell, SWS.com doesn't offer cases of these, and these chases are showing up in their exclusive line.

Ok, so Gree is only going to be in the SWS.com 4pk? I thought it would be in the clean 4pk making it more available to a case purchase from say EE, etc. I guess that would make it a little more difficult to find :-\.

I might be jumping into this line as well. After seeing these clones that are coming out it has really brought my attention to the line. Does anyone know where you can buy these by the case? This would pretty much ensure you get the chase figure wouldn't it? Might help relieve some of the stress of finding it by buying singles.
