I'm looking for the Commander Gree and Darth Malak Mini Busts.  I'll also be looking for a total of 3 of whatever Hasbro is offering, 2 for myself and 1 for a buddy.

Dale's offered to help me out, but if anyone else is going and waiting in that line and NOT buying them, let me know - I'd love to get an extra Gree/Malak or two to try to trade for the other two busts that will be Japan and UK exclusives later in the year 

PM me.   :)

I concur with the above... 

I love watching people humiliate themselves, quite happily, but after that it's just a lame karaoke show.

I stopped thinking that way when I decided that 90% of those people humiliating themselves are actors being told to go sing like crap because it pulls in big ratings and ideally hooks people for the ****** part of the show too.

Are we discussing the tournament in general here too?  Or is this just for you guys to run your brackets?


I'm out of the bracket thing, but I'd love to sit around and talk about how Florida is going to steamroll through the tournament again on their way to a repeat.   8)

Dressel, tell me you don't seriously watch that shitbag of a television show.

Please.   :-\



For what it's worth, there is no international Indian conspiracy.  It's probably just because of stuff like this website.

(The idiots at work are talking about it.... I swear)   :-*

Watto's Junk Yard / Reducing Junk Mail
« on: March 13, 2007, 04:31 PM »
We probably all know about the do-not-call list by now... but have any you tried taking steps to reduce junk mail?  They must cut down a tree a week to bombard me with useless advertisements every week... so a co-worker tells me about this site you can go to to get yourself off national mailing lists.  I was wondering if any of you had tried it.

Here's where I was starting:

http://www.privacyrights.org/fs/fs4-junk.htm

Seems simple enough, but I didn't like the idea of sending someone a check (regardless of the amount) and was wondering if there was anything shady about that.

So, anyone tried any of this?

Thanks in advance.

and Logan died if you guys don't know what the flatline sound means, I'm happy to see him go.

If I had a nickel for every time someone flat lined in a coming-next-week preview only to be revived later, I'd have a **** of a lot of nickels.

Back with more questions....

I'm trying to come up with a game plan to get my hands on the 5 clone commanders and Malak.  I've got at least one person who's going to try to help me out at C4, but I certainly don't know anyone at Blister or the one in the UK.

So, my question is, if I'm not able to find help on these, and I don't win the raffles (a very likely possibility) and I'm not able to secure duplicates of any of the US ones for trade bait, how much do you guys think these things are going to cost on eBay?

And, is it better to jump in and buy one on eBay right away, or do the prices on things like this settle down a little bit later on?

Thanks for the tip Nick.  It isn't really bad or anything - and with a number like #0028, I'm okay with it.

So now Martha and Aaron are an item, and Martha freaks out (that's what happened right?  I looked away for a split second) and stabs Charles in the whatever, and now he's going to probably die in the ambulance?


It's like 90210 with international terrorism.

Whatever this stuff is, it's down in the little lines etched into his hand, and it does not seem to come off.  I even gently ran the back of an x-acto (nothing that would cause damage) through there to see if it would scrape off and nothing moved.  It definitely seems to be part of the resin or some similar material, whatever it is.  It's not so bad that it ruins the bust or stands out too much, but I was curious enough to email the guy about it.

I'll try to get a better picture tonight.

Biker Scout question for everyone.  The one I got over the weekend has some crusty looking white stuff on his hand.  The seller tells me that this is part of the statue, part of the digital imaging process they went through and that it's minty mint.

Just wanted to see if you guys had stuff like that on yours.

You can see it a little bit in this image, but I didn't take it with that specifically in mind:



Thoughts?

Will this one stand on it's own without the legs bending?

I'll take it back if that's the case.  And I'll buy a few.

I'd love to pick one up, but I'm not too worried about it yet.


Maybe this is just my payback for finding VOTC Stormtroopers in almost every store I walked into for 5 months.

Anyone else having trouble with that Unleashed Black Hole Stormtrooper?

Mine keeps falling over.  I can't believe they raised the price by $5.00 and cheaped out on the plastic at the same time.  Worst unleashed ever.
