Yup, up and running and nobody's more frustrated than the staff I'm sure.  That was some LONG downtime when it was only to be a short time I guess.  Annoying as hell. 

Glad it's back up because it's just another resource for the hobby that I miss when it's not around.  FFURG says thanks for the thoughts guys.

If they need Vader they need to broaden their shopping horizons to Wal-Mart.  One near me has about 5 pegs of nothing but the man in black.

Yeah, I dare say even Neimoidian Warriors aren't in abundance here.  Did they ship out or sell out?  Very interesting...  They did seeming just disappear right away though, and I'm a little bummed to say that I miss them.  I'd gotten to know them well and looked forward to buying a small Frog Army on clearance.  Alas this appears unlikely now.

Hmmm, no...  We talk all that stuff over, so I'd know if something had come up but I think everyone digs having Fritz over.  Probably wishes we saw more of him actually. :)

I'll check and see what's up, but I'm sure someone a little more in-the-know than I will know how to check into this faster.  I'm pretty slow at this stuff yet, haha.

Tell Fritz if you're talking to him though that we'll look into it and hopefully he'll be back in here soon if this is just a glitch on our end of some kind.  We've not been having any problems around here lately though with anyone so Fritz didn't do anything. :)

See the post above I made...  That's the state of things.  They went to do upgrades, a short-term issue turned I guess into a long one, and that's where it stands for the FForums unfortunately right now as near as I can tell.  If the staff at FFURG could fix it Jason, Tim, and Ash would be on it I"m sure but it's out of their hands at the moment unfortunately.  Definitely BS with the downtime but it happens to the best of sites  too so this just sucks.

In due time it'll be back, and I'll make sure to post if I see it before anyone, but if you notice them back up and no post here feel free to update.  I hope it's soon too but in the meantime I'm enjoying just looking around here too...  Always good for diversity though, so this does suck.

Revenge of the Sith / Re: ROTS Worst
« on: December 10, 2005, 04:59 AM »
GF's kids got that figure, and I really didn't realize how bad it was till I saw it opened.  They hated it too, and the thing's post bent so it was pretty well broke right away.  A terrible figure really.  I don't think the Deluxe line was a big flop though for ROTS, I really do think there's more than just the two Vaders that were good.

Like Yoda with Cancel is good for what it is...  Not in the film and all, it's still a unique figure, and pretty big for $10.  The Stass w/BARC was great too I thought.  I wish Hasbro would resculpt the Speederbike and put it out with a new Super Articulated Biker Scout (and clear stand for the bike so it "hovers").

I also thought the Spider Droid was a marked improvement, and while the Crab Droid wasn't the best for detail, it's a BIG ASS figure, no doubt.  Really nice in that regard.  Too big for the one most clearly seen in the film (that the Clone stands on) but I guess either bigger ones are BARELY visible in ROTS or the EU's made up that there are various sizes but the droids are all the same "style" and look, just bigger with bigger bite.

The Vulture Droids, Clones, Obi/Droid, and the Palpatine were all the sets I wasn't wild about though.  I think Vulture Droids could've used a resculpt personally, and the others I just didn't like or hadn't liked the first time I saw them.

Original Trilogy Collection / Re: Carded Wedge, finally!
« on: December 10, 2005, 04:57 AM »
It's available now at Entertainment Earth.com incase you haven't gotten in on this yet. 

It's a kitbash but one I'm pretty happy to get.  I think he'll be a little tall though from what I can think of Dutch's sculpt.

Yup, that's Hasbro's plan of action. :)  It's that same strategy they've been running with since...  oh...  the beginning.

The Prequel Trilogy / Re: Jedi Council talk
« on: December 9, 2005, 11:10 PM »
Since it's being brought up again in another post, I'll repeat some advice/pointers...

Basically, be wary of what you're posting, and how you're posting it...  If you have a point to make, make it coherent and well thought-out in how you type it.  Otherwise you're just going to basically annoy everyone, and eventually you're going to annoy me, or other members of the staff here, to the point that some action may be taken.

Post sensible topics with sensible titles, not this stuff.  And with that I'm locking this thread because it doesn't make an iota of sense.

Oh, and Anton...  The Bear Clan were just a "class" more or less (I think) of Younglings.  The younglings Yoda's teaching in AOTC were Bear Clan younglings.  It's EU crap.

Leigh it was tough to find a good "sexy" pic of her considering the times...  Monroe was much easier.

Both rank high on my hotness list and I always kind of had a thing for Monroe after seeing Some Like It Hot as a budding studboy.  Hey, nobody said they had to be alive, and those were two very natural beauties.

To speak for Jason, I don't think he knows at this point Ryan...  They'll be back though eventually, just that this is a server thing I'm pretty sure and not on our end...  Supposedly some maintenance was to go on, and as often happens the maintenance turned from small to big quickly.

Hopefully when things come back up online you guys that visit FFURG too can throw your customs updates up on the site and all will be right with customizing once again. :)

I'm sure when Jason's around he'll catch this and update for us if I'm misinterpreting FFURG matters for ya.

Yes alot of games desplay historic moments but never just like the real thing.IUt would be way too hard.(I think JessyJames mentioned this a few days? ago ?)

Something like that Joe...  I made mention of the D-Day landings in the original Medal of Honor.  In the game you have a life meter, etc...  In real life, you have luck.  The game's realistic, but it really is far from real...  I forget why I was even mentioning that though somewhere else.

Oh man...  That's a priceless read Bill, thanks.  Rough news for that guy though, he'll be lucky to survive the week especially if there's no repeal from the exchange.

Jim,

Is this for army building?  I have some CW sets loose I'd sell my extras of if you wanted.  Just don't have much interest.
