Rob - why do you ask member(s) to stop with the political postings and then 'bait' people with posts like that?

 ???



I tried to show restraint... then I sort of vomited a political comment.

It happens.

Who knows, the people at 24 might take the stance that Dressel stated in that they are pushing for a female president and have her be a very strong commander in chief, OR they could go the exact opposite direction with it and portray her as inept in dealing with terrorism, which is the defining issue on the show.  How they play this out could be one of the most controversial moves that they've made, and it could be politically motivated... but I think it's par of their plan to get their ratings back up.

You can bet your ass that Murdoch and FOX aren't going to allow anything that would overtly help out Hillary Clinton.

About 4 or 5 years ago Ryan Shaw did a small run of custom Gargan figures.  It's been a long time coming, but I finally managed to obtain one. :)

Yeah right.  Actually the producers of "24" started the political ****.

The producers of 24 did not start political **** at Jedidefender.com.   >:(

I'd love to go into his thoughts about her with what he's seen and heard, but I know this isn't the place for it.

I'm sure you could find a secret service agent with 'interesting' things to say about every detail from the service's inception until now.

Keep an eye out then, the ones by me are down to $5.98 - as of the other day they had everything other than the Snowtrooper.

I agree 100% that I didn't like there being two presidents from the same family, but then again, we're on our second president already from the Bush family, and there's a chance it will happen with the Clintons.  So it's not unplausible. 


I know at least Chewie is with me in taking great comfort that Hillary will never be President.  You can take that to to bank.

This is obviously a threat against our future Madam President.  I've alerted Homeland Security and the Secret Service to your post.

And next time don't start political ****.  You know better.

These popped back up at the Target I get groceries at today.  They had four, I bought two of them.

My Han/Carbonite got here this morning.  :)

4 figures and a couple of upgrades to go and my loose set is finished.  Until I start looking for a VC Jawa and a small-head Han and a brown-haired Luke and so on...   :P

30th Anniversary Collection / Re: Army Building - PT vs OT
« on: July 21, 2007, 02:01 AM »
I think Rob's point about non-helmeted troops applies too.  Really, how many rebel honor guards does anyone want anyway?  I'm all for Hasbro making characters/troops with limited scene time but I don't think anyone is really going to army build with those.

I've got 12, and I could see myself ending up with a few more.    :-X



If you push their helmets down so the visor covers their eyes, they're indistinguishable enough for me.

The Death Star Trooper on the other hand.... I'm done unless they want to do a new head sculpt.

More positive feedback for Jeff (as if he needs it) - bought some books from him and they arrived promptly and as described.

"He flat out told me that he charges so much for shipping to avoid paying Ebay fees on a larger sell price.  "

Save the email and contact eBay about it.

That's flat out against their rules and he can have his account canceled should they feel so inclined.

Could have to do with the head sculpts...

I'd guess that it's more accurate that figures without unique faces sit longer - DST, Honor Guard... than figures with helmets, Clones, Stormtroopers, Snowtroopers...


Also, there are SO many different ones out right now, it's tough to gauge.

I for one am sick of clones and have been focusing on OT troops. I've even gone back and picked up all the AT-AT Drivers and Death Star Gunners I could find.
