Saw pictures of Wave 2 from SDCC last night. Eureka Striker looked terrific, and Leatherback is HUGE! Good luck getting him on a card. Was really hoping we would get a confirmation of Wave 3 this weekend though. Fingers crossed. Cherno Alpha or bust!

They also showed a gigantic Gipsy Danger, at least a foot high if not more, very impressive. Have not heard what this is or if/when it is being released though.

Night Owl showed up on my doorstep yesterday, outstanding figure, as anticipated. Probably my favorite after Rorschach.

Curious if anyone has heard any buzz about this line continuing after 2013? There are still a lot of good character choices left, and with only 6 slots a year to fill, seems like they could keep it going longer if they wanted to. I hope so, I really like these.

Greedo is an EE exclusive? (as per GH)

Was this always known and I somehow was oblivious?

Well, if it's any consolation, I saw these today at Target for the first time and I was happy to leave them there for the next guy. The only one I was curious about was the Shock Trooper but it did not impress.

Still no signs of them putting TVC on clearance, those are gonna be some crowded pegs in a few more weeks.

I was practically begging for an excuse to jump into this line. But like Chewie, these NEVER made it to a reasonably priced Walmart or Target around here. Nor to either of our remaining K-Marts. I would have gone nuts on clearance Hobbit figs. Guess it wasn't meant to be.

Our TRU still has a buttload of these too, and based on their stubborn refusal to lower the price, they will be collecting dust for awhile. They've still got Pirates of the Carribean figures on the pegs for chrissakes!

WAIT! WAIT!!!

IS THAT DEVIL DINOSAUR AND MOONBOY?!?!

Had those been announced previously? I don't pay much attention to this line but those are must-haves for me as the comic was one of my favorite things growing up.

Any info would be appreciated, thanks!

If anyone sees any new WD stuff featured at SDCC, can you post a head's up here?

I always seem to miss a lot of cool non-SW related stuff.

Thanks in advance!

Ugh, please don't give them any ideas!

I dread re-buying those cruddy figures again too.

Wait wait wait.  Sorry, but I find it hilarious that the review basically makes the figutes sound like the worst collectible ever, but then Pete still buys a full case of figures.  Hiw is that not drinking the koolaid? 

I recognize the irony, but you have to separate the review from the collector OCD. No matter how bad they made a Clone Wars figure, I would have bought it because I am a Big "C" Completist. I think Pete is the same way. He's committed, but he's not kidding himself about the quality of these things either. I respect that.

SDCC Fett is limit one per customer.

I'm sure Brian's Toys will find a way around that.  ;)

The mystery of the missing Rex continues. Hope we don't have to wait as long for him as that scanning crew guy.

Thanks Pete, refreshing to read a non-Koolaid-drinking review of these. Some sites seem to think these are the shizz for some inexplicable reason.

Did you find them on the pegs or did you have to Jedi Mind Trick them out of the supply room?

I found a full case of these at TJ Maxx today for $14.99 each. Easy pass as Target is still cheaper at $13.98.

Saw a bunch of these at TJ Maxx today for $12.99 a pop. Was tempted by the Dropship and AT-RT sets, but I suspect these will hit clearance at Target any time now.
