Other Toy Lines / Re: Latest vintage acqusition
« on: October 8, 2013, 09:03 AM »
Bump. I finally scored one of my "grail" items last night on eBay...an MISB Blue Zeroid from the Ideal Star Team line. The Knight of Darkness and Zem are not to hard to find, even boxed, but the little Blue guy has been a real PITA. Almost all the ones that pop up are loose, and the very few I have seen boxed are either dinged up pretty good or just prohibitively expensive. The one I snagged was not cheap but a fair price IMO considering the rarity.

Still on the fence whether I need to pick up Kent & Cosmic Cruiser, but I think I'm good for now.  ;D

Thanks guys! I will be hunting this down this weekend. Should be fun trying to get my other one back into the original packaging to return it...

Can someone (ok, Jeff) who has seen these at CostCo confirm the price? Are they $29.99 like the Walmart version?

I really want to see this in person to figure out what the heck they did with his belt. The original has the saber hilt firmly attached to his belt. Since he doesn't wield two lightsabers, I am hoping they went back and resculpted that belt.

I double dog dare someone to try ordering these off K'Mart's website. God knows what you would end up getting.

Yay, I'm there. I'm sure with Filoni at the helm it will bear some stylistic resemblance to Clone Wars. I'm just curious who the major players will be. And of course, what the action figures will look like (eventually).

Oh snap! Don't care about the noises but the swappable saber hand is a must have. I hope it's not too late to return my old one. Great find!

Got my Kili/Fili 2-pack in the mail today that I won off eBay. Also picked up the last Grinnah at TRU just to have a little extra goblin action in my display. Right nowI have everyone chilling on my spare vintage Ewok playset. The motif sort of fits somehow.

Ant Man was beating his wife?!?! WTF?

When did all this go down in the actual comics? Must have been 80's or 90's right?

Was this really supposed to be a general release item?

Oh yeah, I didn't mean to imply that anyone was hopping OFF the Steelers bandwagon, I know those fans are among the NFL's best. I just meant that there seems like a resurgence of baseball enthusiasm in that town, and the combination of an up year for the Pirates and a down year for the Steelers is only fanning that. I can't remember the last time I saw so many people so psyched to be at a Pirates game! Good for them.

I picked up the AT-RT/Tactical Droid Deluxe set today at Marshall's for an eye-popping $7. Hell yeah! Oddly enough, they had another one two shelves above it for the regular price of $12.99.

ps - sad to see this forum relegated to oblivion, but understandable...

Man. They really don't want people to see Smaug do they?

I suspect a lot of Steelers fans have jumped on the Pirates bandwagon. Can't say I blame them.

I saw the mando speeder with Darth Maul and 2 red Mandos at my local grocery store last night. Damn, what a great toy! This would have been a great entry in the Hasbro deluxe series. Ugh.

I liberated a lone Mace Windu from my local Walmart last night for $3.50. Apparently clerance price varies by store because the next two I checked had TCW stragglers for $5 and $7 respectively.
