So it looks like this only has consequences if you are a carded collector.  No problems with that here.

I'm not sure - it's entirely possible that they found eachother eventually and that I just idnd't see it on the broadcast.  But usually after a loss the other coach isn't all smiles when he greets the winner.  I think that might be beforehand because Cowher was soaking wet at the end after getting doused with Gatorade.

This from foxsports.com:

"Coaches Bill Cowher and Mike Holmgren met before Super Bowl XL (pictured) but didn't shake hands on the field after the game. Apparently confusion about which 25-yard line they were supposed to meet at caused the missed opportunity. Cowher went to one, while Holmgren went to the other."

Oooh, Geonosis wave

Picked up four Hoth figures (in addition to the case I bought).  I snagged another couple of AT-AT drivers (is this just a repainted Saga Tie Pilot?)

Nah, there are pretty big differences in the helmet sculpt particularly around the helmet eye lenses, and the poseability of the right arm at the elbows.

The TIE Pilot right arm cannot be straightened out and fully extended like the AT-AT Driver's.  Plus, the left arm is sculpted permanently straight with no joint on the TIE Pilot.

Looking at these 2 figures in my hand right now...I LOVED the TIE Pilot when it first came out, but now that I have the AT-AT Driver, it is light year's better.

Here's a great article from an unbiased point of view.

I don't think there's a such thing as an "unbiased" point of view.  You either like the Steelers more, or the Seahawks more.

I don't care what this author says, Darrell Jackson planted his hand on the defender's chest and pushed off.  Pass interference, end of story.

As for Roethlisberger, yup, could have gone either way.  Very very close call there.  We may be talking about sixteenths of inches in the distance that the ball missed or crossed the goal line. 

But I do think it's really lame for Seahawks fans to start blaming the refs for not winning the Super Bowl.  The Steelers flat out beat them down.  I saw that poll on what people will remember most about the Super Bowl, and here's my list:

- Willie Parker's TD run
- Jerome Bettis finally winning
- The Gadget Play to Hines Ward!  God, I love those.
- And then, somewhere after all that, some people whining about the officiating, including the close call on Roethlisberger's touchdown which could have easily gone either way

Not to burst anyone's bubble here, but these really aren't so great.  

The likeness on Luke is not so hot.  The face sculpt could be much better.

The Tusken Raider cloak is way too bulky.

The POTJ biker scout was sculpted with  a pin head.  The head was too small.  This one is not much better.  Yes, it's going to FLY off of the shelves.  The articulation is better obviously, but that pin head sculpt is still hindering this figure.

I do dig that Han.  Nice job there.

Greedo's okay.
