« on: April 12, 2007, 04:45 PM »


Press Release from Funko:

"Funko, home of the Wacky Wobbler, is proud to announce an agreement with Lucas Films LTD to produce Star Wars Bobblehead products. Funko will take a unique approach with the Star Wars franchise by applying the beloved FunKo style to the lightweight PVC Vinyl bobbles. Look for icons such as Darth Vader, Boba Fett, Yoda as well as cult favorites like Greedo, Jawa, Gamorrean Guard, Tusken Raider, and many many more!

Funko will also be producing the first ever 12" Star Wars Super Deformed Style Bobble Banks, as well as Bobble Ships, Mini Wobblers and much more!

Also, Funko will introduce Chase Pieces into each case. One special limited edition 7" wobbler will be included per case that will surely add some cool collectibilty and fun to the Star Wars Funko line.

So look for Star Wars to be FUNKO-IZED this July!"

I have heard some forecasts of 50oF for tomorrow and then maybe up into the sixties next week, so I think we are mostly out of the bad part of the April cold-snap.

(global warming my ass - it was colder here on Easter than Christmas  ::))

The mold for the fuselage/cockpit has several changes as well. Note: Center Guns, the greeblies and viewport.

Yeah, the more I looked at, the more subtle difference I thought I saw...

I started to think maybe it was just me hoping, but maybe just maybe it is a total revamp!   :o

I, for one, will welcome this revamped TIE x1 with open arms.   :)

30th Anniversary Collection / 30AC Darth Vader's TIE Advanced x1

Do my eyes decieve me or is this a NEW Vader's TIE?   :o

I don't remember Vader's TIE having "ejecting wings" before.  In that picture, it definitely looks like the cockpit attaches to the wings differently than the older version.  Hmmm...


edit:
Here's a picture of the old wings for reference...



Oh, yeah - definitely new wings!   ;D

Star Wars Action Figures / Re: Scorch leg swap
« on: April 11, 2007, 12:03 PM »
I need some help articulating the legs of a scorch fig.  I want to do the knees and ankles, with out having to do any sculpting.

I merged your post into this existing thread since it has some of the answers you seek...  ;)

Not that it fits and not that many are aware it was even on, but Canada defeated the US tonight here in Winnipeg at the IIHF Women's World Hockey Championships, 5-1 if I got the score correct.   :-*

At least I can take solace in the fact that the gal who scored for Team USA was a Golden Gopher.   :)


Oh, and to keep things on topic, it looks like I'll have tickets for Game 4 vs. the Ducks next Tuesday.   8)

So this makes me wonder, are we going to get McQuarrie versions of Han Solo, Luke (as a girl) and Lando (wearing Leia's dress)?

I guess this is worth repeating for those who don't keep track like us OCD folks...

These are confirmed:
Concept Stormtrooper (wave 1)
Concept Boba Fett (wave 2)
Concept Chewbacca (wave 3)
Concept Darth Vader (wave 4)
Concept R2-D2 & C-3PO (StarWarsShop @ Celebration)
Concept Scuba Gear Luke (HasbroToyShop @ Celebration)

These are not officially confirmed yet, but highly likely based on the retail list that came out this winter:
Concept Luke Skywalker #2 (wave 5) *
Concept Snowtrooper (wave 6) *
Concept Han Solo (wave 7) *
Concept Rebel Trooper (wave 8 ) *

- Again, those last 4 are not officially confirmed, but everything in wave 3 and 4 on that list panned out so it looks really good at this point. 

- There is some speculation that the wave 5 Luke is perhaps the Girl Luke since the Celebration Luke is Scuba Luke.  There is also some speculation that the wave 5 Luke is instead a basic figure version of the Celebration Luke.  No one knows at this point, but we should know within a few weeks I would guess.

- There has been no Concept Lando speculation/rumoring that I have seen.
